Roadway Drive Aims To End City Discrimination Row
In Claremont North Carolina residents fund a private road to two black families amid a federal revenue sharing dispute. The Treasury Department considers antidiscrimination breaches but will not yet withdraw funds. Private donations cover about $3,500 for the road and $125 for water lines. The Shuford families occupy 19 residents in two aging homes atop Oxford Street.
