Local and state roads push eyed for federal aid
Governor Scott notes Congress may grant at least one hundred million dollars for local road aid on a matching state basis. North Carolina could match rural road funds with bond money while federal funds add miles to the rural system, with a small state share not exceeding two million dollars. Parks director Morse reports record summer patronage at state recreation areas including Jones Lake for colored patrons, with July and August activity high and costs offset by concessions. The state supreme court’s fast-term session begins August 29 with several criminal and civil appeals, and Governor Scott confirms the appointment of Dr. Locke Robinson to the conservation and development board following Tom Alexander's resignation letter.
