Hoey Appears to Decide on Waynick for Highway Chair
Raleigh April 19 Governor Hoey faces a pivotal choice on May 1 appointing a chairman for the reorganized State Highway and Public Works Commission. The debate centers on whether to reappoint Capus M Waynick, praised for efficiency, or yield to political pressure and replace him to appease party factions. Supporters warn against making a political sop that could split Hoey’s base, while others argue no equally qualified successor exists, keeping Waynick atop the short list.
