HIGHWAY DISCUSSED
BY COUNTY BOARD

At a special meeting of the board
of county commissioners, which was
held Friday morning, the matter of
transferring the sum of S2.400 from
the general fund to the road fund,
and be advanced to the committee for
construction work on the Gulf Beach
would probably be granted The board
concluding to hold up such transfer
until the first meeting in February at
least, or until January bills are paid.
The board went on record as stating
that if there is a sufficient surplus on
hand at the February meeting, after
all bills have been paid, the request
of the committee on the highway
would probably granted. The board
also went on record as stating that,
while the highway to the gulf was
|. favored, there was no authority to
expend the county funds on the pro-
iect, especially when there was no
provision made for the same in the
= nannual budget They are not per
mitted by law to expend more than is
provided
The meeting was called for the spe-
cial purpose of taking action on the
request to be presented by a special
committee composed of Messrs. Ben
Clutter, c. f. Dobson and H. R. Cook
1T was argued that the sum of $2,4OO
could be advanced to the committee
from the general fund to the road
fund. When it was stated that there
is a balance of S4,343.49 now, anS
that the January bills which must be
paid out of that sum would amount
to about $500, the suggestion was
made that the expected tax receipts
would likely be sufficient to care fol
the outstanding bills. Commissions
Hardy then proposed that the sum. Of
$1,000 be now appropriated to the
