Legislature Stalls Abolition of State Highway Commission
The House rejected bills to abolish or radically reform the State Highway Commission. Debates cited slowness, costs, and alleged misallocation of funds with figures from 1893 to 1898. Supporters urged continued policy, while critics charged mismanagement and self-interest. The measures were defeated or postponed.
