Says Toll Highways Benefit To Motels Wedeking Speaks On Road Benefits KENTLAND. Ind. (INS) — Albert J. Wedeking, executive director of the Indiana toll road commission, said Monday night that the president of the Pennsylvania Motel Association wrote him that toll .highways benefit niotels. Addressing the Kentland Rotary club, Wedeking quoted from a letter ae received trom E. W. Mimmerman, president of the Pennsylvania turnpike at Harrisburg. Zimmerman described the expansion of his own motel business, adding: “This could not have been possible if it had not been for the traffic on the Pennsylvania turnpike, I think for the good of the public you are going to create a new industry along your turnpike (Indiana east-west toll road) which will be more modern and give employment besides providing employment for those persons who do the road building. “Naturally it is going to hurt some of the people who are in the motor court business, but the trend is toward larger and better courts. The majority of courts will be outdated with new ones taking their places.” The commission has ruled that there will be no motels on the Indiana toll roads, but many probably will be located nearby. Wedeking admitted that the amount of taxable land will be lessened by the pay road, but he said the amount will be small and will be more than offset by the general prosperity created by the construction and operation of the toll road.
