He said that the traffic situation may change the picture Michael all members of the Elks.

Pre-burial services by Portsmouth Lodge of Elks were held at the chapel last night by the following officers: Exalted Ruler George Scott, Esteemed Leading Knight Ralph Rosa, Esteemed Loyal Knight David Jacobs, Esteemed Lecturing Knight Robert O'Leary, Chaplain Charles Gerry, Esquire Ray Costello and Secretary William Marcello. Miss Ellen Wentworth EXETER Funeral services were held yesterday for Miss Ellen Lang Wentworth In the Exeter Congregational Church with the Rev. Paul T. Martin officiating. Bearers were Gray Fimkhouser, Elmer Stevens, Earle Stockbridge, David Merrill, George Scammon and Fred Moore, all of Exeter.

The extension to Rochester would start at the traffic circle and follow the Spur Road with a partial cloverleaf and underpass 'at the Gosling Road entrance to the Portsmouth Air Force Base. It would continue to Bean's Hill, following Routes 4 and 16. Ramps would be built at the intersection of the Spur Road and Routes 4 and 16 also at a point where the proposed air base railroad line crosses the highway. The expressway would continue over the General Sullivan Bridge. The turnpike extension', for the most part, would run parallel to Route 16 which is now carrying too much traffic, according to Merrill, It would skirt the cities of Dover, Somersworth and Rochester, yet serve the industrial needs' of the three communities.

Honorary bearers were Perley Merrill said the possibility of Gardner. Norman McKendrick, using the extension as a toll road Frank Cilley, Albertus T. Dudley and John Rowe, all of Exeter; also Russell Churchill of Boston. Harold Jenkins was organist. Burial was in the Exeter Cemetery.

Ohio in Dither Over Atom Plant WAVERLY, O. --Pike County, still numb from the news a billion-dollar atom plant will be built among its hills, looked around today for housing and other needs for some 35,000 workers. Part of the problem also confronted Scioto County, whose, county seat, Portsmouth, is 22 miles south of. the site of the plant that will extract Uranium 235 from uranium ore. The Atomic Energy Commission in Washington announced yesterday that the $1,200,000,000 plant would be erected a few miles south of here.

Randall Press Gets Printing Contract The Randall Press at 19 Daniel St. has been awarded a contract to print the Portsmouth city report.

One toll house would be placed at the junction of Routes 4 and 16 and another at Gonic. Portions of the expressway would offer toll-free service to local travel.

While announcing the need for the extension, Merrill pointed out that Rockingham and Stratford Counties, which would be served by the road, contain nearly 23 per cent of the state's population. In 10 years between 1940 and 1950, he said, the counties accounted for almost 48 per cent of the state's total increase in population. These factors, combined with the expected effects of the Portsmouth Air Force Base, indicates a traffic increase of a permanent nature, Merrill explained. He also said there has been a steady increase in traffic through the two counties. Merrill reported that a vehicle-per-day average on any road is a reasonable point at which four-lane divided highways should be considered.

At present, Routes 4 and 16, between Portsmouth and Dover, carries a daily load of nearly 5,000 vehicles. Discussing the turnpike in Central Hampshire, Merrill said that the daily traffic volume on Route 3, south of Nashua, averages between 6,700 and 8,000 vehicles daily. More than 20,000 vehicles use Nashua's main street a day; 4,800 to 6,000 between Nashua and Manchester; 14,700 on Elm Street, Manchester; and 7,100 between Manchester and Concord. Construction of the expressway in Central New Hampshire would speed industrial and agricultural traffic in the south central part of the state, boosting these two industries along with the tour- Mr, and Mrs. Ralph H.

Apple Crop Predicted Poorest In Six N.E. States BOSTON smallest New England apple crop since 1946 is expected this year, the New England Crop Reporting Service said today. The agency, a U.S. Department of Agriculture' division, said the Aug. 1 estimate of 5,044,000 bushels shows a decline of 13 per cent from the July 1 estimate.

Dry, hot weather, continuation of June drop, scab, wind, and hail damage were factors causing the decline. The production forecast this year is 41 per cent less than the 1951 production of 8,501,000 bushels, and 22 per cent less than the 10-year average. The drop in production estimate in July ranged from 16 to 22 per cent in Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts and Rhode Island. Vermont had a five per cent decline while no change was noted in Connecticut. "Connecticut," said the.

experts, "has the best apple crop of any of the New England states and New Hampshire the poorest."
