Wyoming Valley must have this new highway as
an important link in the great new highway system
now under construction on route 92 from Tunkhan-
nock to Dallas, and thence to Wyoming Valley. This
route reduces the time and driving distance from
up river communities, Wyoming, Sullivan and Sus-
quehanna counties to Wyoming Valley. It deflects
business from the Scranton
Wilkes-Barre. Wyoming Valley also needs the new
highway to make its summer homes and recreation
at Harvey's Lake more accessible.

low the removal of the present bottle neck at Lu-
zerne. Our growth is now retarded by traffic con-
gestion, inconvenient and destructive highways.
Luzerne Borough needs this new highway. 50
mer cent of its business comes from the rural regios
and any population growth in this area will be re-
flected in increased business in Luzerne stores,
where traffic congestion, lack of parking facilities
and inconvenience now drive business away.
Now is the time to strike and to get this new
highway. Let us all work together to assure con-
struction of the new Luzerne highway this summer.
Unfortunate the man or group of men who oppose
this project, which means so much to the progress,
development, convenience and prosperity of all of us.
No one can stand in its way without being over-
whelmed by an aroused public sentiment that not
only wants but demands the new highway.

A Timely Editorial From The Independent
The Luzerne By - Pass
Poor highway arteries are a heavy liability to the
most progressive community. Nothing so lowers
its prestige in the eyes of visitors or capitalists in
search. of a place in which to locate a manufacturing
plant or mercantile enterprise. Activities of the
local motor organization and men of broad vision
have brought to Wyoming Valley many notable
highway improvements in the past four years. This
splendid result was largely due to the hearty coop-
eration that was never lacking in every progressive
step that was taken.
The motorists and general public are grateful
for all that has been accomplished, but they will be
in no mood to sing paeans of thanksgiving until
that exasperating by-pass at Luzerne is made an un-
pleasant memory. For several years Senator Sor-
doni drew upon every influence within reach to
give the rapidly growing population of the Back
Mountain territory the convenience and pleasure
of a modern highway. In the face of discourage-
ments from the Luzerne County. commissioners or
the Harrisburg authorities he remained on the job
for four years.
While still earnestly interested he turned over
leadership in the drive to Senator Mundy as soon
as the Earle Administration took over the seats of
power in State government. Luckily for the service
clubs and progressive spirits of the community,
Senator Mundy is just as sincerely interested in
giving the people of the Back Mountain country an
up-to-date highway as was Senator Sordoni. He
has accepted leadership at the Harrisburg end and
is working hand in hand with Chairman C. L. Al
bert of the Dallas Rotary Club in the new cam-
paign just launched.

There's no need of wasting newspaper space in
calling the attention of local people to the demands
of the residents of Luzerne, Kingston Township,
Dallas and all the other expanding communities in
the Harvey's Lake area for just treatment in the
apportionment of highway improvements. As the
local committee in charge of the new drive has so
well pointed out, “the hardships in the use of the
present route are innumerable and the cost to mo-
torists for automobile repairs impossible to esti
mate.” No one is in position to appraise the cost
in inconvenience and nerve strain that results to
the 200,000 automobile drivers who visit Harvey's
Lake every summer. It's a common thing for 2,000
machines an hour to visit the lake every Sunday
during the vacation season.
The new road is an absolute necessity if the
Back Mountain territory is to continue the steady,
substantial growth it has maintained the past ten
years. In this brief period more than two thousand
heads of families have built attractive homes in
Kingston Township, Dallas, and in the two town-
ships that border Harvey's Lake. Nor is it to be
forgotten that in the same territory is now located
and prospering the leading college for girls in
Northeastern Pennsylvania, College Misericordia.
Irem Temple Country Club also attracts thousands
of visitors seven months of the year.
All in all, there is every sound reason why the
new campaign now in full swing should not bring
the highway relief desired the coming summer. And
with the energetic Senator Mundy on the job and
utilizing his influence to the utmost we are confi
dent that it will:
Every motorist in the Back Mountain Section, Luzerne and Wyoming
Valley should get behind this crusade now! Give your co-operation to General
Chairman Charles Albert and to the civic clubs, community organizations and
other groups that are working diligently to make the new Luzerne highway
a reality.
