It was carefully explained that the vote was a personal one by the delegates and dlrnbt bind their national alliances to that view. Thus was brought to a close two full days of study and deliberation over a problem that caused great question among the delegates.

Roath, 52, North Little Rock physician, was arrested yesterday in connection’ with the slaying of Luther W. Lindsey, 50, a patrolman, in Four-Year Program Provided. At the last session of the General | Assembly the Porter-Rhodes act was | pessed, providing a four-year program of lateral road comstruction. At that time it was generally understood that | no more mileage was to be taken in, | with the exception of the regular 100 miles yearly, at the next session. The IS SHOT BY OWNER| ™ General Assembly, however, may do &s it wishes in this respect, and the next | Assembly, with its many new members, | may not feel disposed to abide by the | plans of the last in this respect. As recommended by the Federal | planning body, the new road would be on a route that was surveyed by the Bureau of Public Roads of the Depart- ment of Agriculture as a_possible route for the Mount Vernon Boulevard and was later abandoned in favor of the river route. The Federal Government did provide a direct route to Mount Vernon, but eliminated what is believed by the Na- tional Capital Park and Planning Com- mission to be a most necessary main route to the South. Connect With Telegraph Road. The proposed route would skirt the property of the Army-Navy Country Club in Arlington County and then continue through Arlington County to make & connection with the old Tele- raph road, west of Alexandria proper. It would join the present Washington- Richmond Highway at Pohick Church. The survey of the Bureau of Public Roads presents to the State an op- portunitv to study the situation with- out itself making a survey. Previous negoiiations by Federal authorities for free rights of way would also be made known to State authorities by those of the Pederal Government, it is claimed. Experience on Boulevard. This situation is based upon the ex- perience that the State has derived from the Mount Vernon Boulevard and the Yorktown project, where the State authorjties were not permitted to work the roads into their own system and ob- Jection has been made to crossings and connections with State projects. The propossd new Washington- Richmond route would necessarily be a , | State rather than a Federal project. Electrocuted for Attack. RALEIGH, N.
