Powers Confer On Road Funds In Territory Board Row
A noon conference in the executive chamber discussed unexpended road funds in the Treas ury allocated to various Territorial road boards with approval from the Superintendent of Public Works. County Attorney Douthitt informed Governor Carter, with Deputy Attorney General Petore and Treasurer Campbell present. The supervisory board recently instructed legal action to enjoin the Treasurer, board members, and possibly the Superintendent from further spending the funds. If injunction blocks use, funds may remain in Treasury until a new session, yielding no immediate county benefit, while the governor seeks an amicable resolution.
