State officials warn relief funds squeeze and pending federal bill
Johnson said the state may need to transfer funds from wealthier counties to those in need and may drain the till to meet ends. Future allotments depend on the relief bill in Congress. Federal aid is limited by ongoing allocations from the public works program and state bond money, with $3.5 million remaining and monthly disbursements scheduled through December. Counties were told not to send delegations for more funds or to seek state payment of materials.
