the secretary of the United States
department of agriculture. The mat
ter was taken up with the depart
ment and we are informed that this
was a mistake or miSinterpretation
and that the distribution of funds
and labor within the states was left
entirely to the states without re-
striction as to residence in any par
ticular county.
I'VE are not pursuing this sub
ject in any desire to hamper or an
noy the commission but only thru
a desire to relieve the need of the
working men of this county. We do
not need the roads perhaps so much
as other counties and we are sure
where needed most, but we do need
work for our people and we again
ask that you modify that ruling SO
that Maricopa county residents will
not be Disseminated against, but
will be permitted to participate in
the same percentage as the county
contributes to revenues of the de-
partment or in proportion to popu-
lation.
please bear in mind that it is
these same Maricopa residents who
contribute approximately 40 per cent
of your total funds"
