High Point Overlooked in State Road Plans
A long list from the State Highway Commission shows High Point nearly neglected with only a few projects. The plan includes widening S Main Street to the superhighway and compares Greensboro’s potential $50 million gains with High Point’s modest share, highlighting other proposed arterial and four lane developments. Local business notes report Lewis Supply Co winning a Kelly Tires franchise and Parker Furniture Co. expansion, while tax assistance and new sales reps join Security Upholstery Co. Three accountants from the Piedmont Chapter will host a TV tax program on WFMY-TV with Howard Williams of High Point.
