Georgia road plan eyed for state system and federal aid
Walter P. Andrews will introduce a bill to form a Georgia state highway commission, build state highways, and use a state automobile tax fund plus potential federal money. The plan, backed by the prison commission, envisions white convict gangs on state roads and black convicts on county roads, with county roads feeding into main state routes. Inspector Stanley criticizes current survey methods and urges centralized control from county sites to protect future growth.
