tioning and furniture, $1,137 ,00C
for county roads and storm drain
age. and 5000. 900 to complete Sill
system.
In addition, Mr.. McNayr recon-
mended thaA plans be started fol-
construction In fiscal 1950-51 of a
$4,000 county office building and
q $4,000 health building. He

gram for the fiscal year starting
