Farly Ruling To Be Issued Solons Told
Washington August 21 Representative Vinson said he does not expect favorable action on Georgia’s request for release of about 10 million dollars in federal highway aid. He urged acceptance of funds on terms the President may suggest as a written conditions statement would be issued by MacDonald in a few days. The Georgia delegation pressed for immediate release, but officials cited legal uncertainty in the makeup of Georgia’s highway administration after Gov. Talmadge’s orders and martial law. Suits against the new board members are pending in Georgia courts.
