STATE TO LOSE $4,000
GOVERNMENT MONEY

Atlanta, Ga, August 1.-THE
probabilities are that the state OF
Georgia will fail to get her share
of the federal appropriation tc
public roads for the reason that
the highway commission created
by the legislature fails to meet
the requirements of the federal
government.
That is, assuming that any COM
mission is created at all, which
itself is by no means certainty
Should the house decline to con-
cur in the senate amendment to
the highway commission bill, the
bills stands 90 out of 100 chances
to be lost in the crush Which al
ways marks the end of the ses-
sion.
AS it stands today, the bill fails
to give the commission any au-
thority, any funds, any civil en-
gineer, any clerical assistance or
any other facilities for carrying
out the intent and purpose of the
federal act which requires the
funds of each state to be expend-
ed by state highway depart
ment.
Practically without a difference
of opinion, the newspapers over
the state have denounced the
highway commission bill which
passed the house as worthless.
And now that the senate has doc
tored the bill, it's no better than
it was before.
