Washington AP reports Secretary of Transportation Alan S. Boyd will hold back 600 million dollars of Federal highway funds in 1966 to combat inflation. The action reduces 1967 obligation to states by five percent, lowering the total obligational level to 4.115 billion dollars. The move slows highway construction but does not affect the budget since highway trust funds from gasoline taxes will still grow.
