Goode Fight Delays Road Fund Amendment In Iowa
Rep. Dewey Goode angrily left an appropriations subcommittee session in Des Moines after his bid to block using primary road funds for federal projects drew only his vote and Rep. LaVerne Schroeder. The amendment would delay interstate funding until federal grants are allocated, a move opposed by most members and highway officials who warned it could stall projects like I 380. The panel kept the $122.2 million appropriation and set staff limits at 4134 for 1971-72 and 4240 for 1972-73.
