diversion of gasoline taxes from

Mr.. King said County Commits
sioner John E. Oxley, who appeared
at Annapolis this week and asked
that that particular bill be signed,
expressed opposition to further bond
sales at a Democratic congress in
the county following his election.
The bureau president added that

Mr.. Oxley's stand on the bond
question, however, by "giving him
the $4,000 road past his own home
place" in exchange for support on
other bond bills.
"The Poolesville Whites Ferry
bonds would draw 5 per cent inter-
est annually over a period of 20
years, which would make the bond
actually cost the county $4,000 in
stead of $4,000" Mr.. King stated.
