State Seeks Part Of Cemetery For New Road Plan
The State Roads Commission filed a petition to condemn 1046 acres of Greenlawn Cemetery land at Williamsport for the U S Route 11 by pass to skirt Hagerstown. The site lies east of Williamsport and was acquired last April from Suth End Development. By pass work will not begin in this area for a year. The project uses 90 percent federal funds and will cross Potomac River on a new bridge east of Williamsport. The by pass ends at Route 40 west of Williamsport with interchanges planned, and southern leg work not expected to start soon. Another note covers Hoffa testimony on Teamsters payrolls and horse race betting profits. The hearings focus on Local 824 Pontiac Michigan, Hoffa trusteeship, and a Michigan department store loan.
