SEVEN MILLION
U. S. DOLLARS FOR
ROADS IN GEORGIA
But Georgia viii Not Get a Gent
Of 1t Until She Passes High
way Bill Which Suits the
Federal Government

Atlanta, Feb Under the new
amendment to the federal postoffce
bill in the senate $7,000,000 is set
aside as Georgia's share of the federal
road fund for this year and the next
two years, dispatches from Washing
ton announce. But none of this money
will be available until Georgia creates
a state highway commission acceptable
to the government, and presents sys
TEN of highway improvement upon
which the federal fund is to be spent
In the meantime, other states which
have passed the necessary highway
laws will go ahead with their work,
having the first opportunity to engage
engineers, purchase materials and car
~ out their plans.
Advocates Of Georgia good roads are
urging Governor Dorsey to call an ex
ira session of the Legislature for an
early date, for the express purpose OF
taking up the good roads laws and
passing some bill which will assure
work on the roads this summer. Even
IL nothing more is done for this year
than to raise the automobile license
1Ax, as proposed, It will mean many
thousands Of dollars made available
for permanent road work. The pro
posed $40. 100000 bond issue must. OF
course, 60 before the people for rati
Acatlon at the next general election,
bot the federal road funds can be
made available before then.
Governor Dorsey, short time ago,
said he was maintaining an open mind
on the subject Of an extra session. and,
il convinced, 1t would be best he would
call it. The special committee Of the
legislature appointed by him to draft
highway law will submit its report
20 the governor on February 26, and
Is expected to include in that report
q recommendation that the extra ses.
sion be called. 1t Is pointed out that
the expense of the proposed session
would be q great deal less than the
loss Of even a few months use OF i'm
proved roads, and that the increase
In automobile license fees this year
would TAR more than pay for the seq
sion.
