Louisiana to halt highway work amid funding shortfall
Governor Alvin O. King announced a stop to all highway construction and a wholesale reduction of state employes after four years of expanded Lang road program. He cited low funds and a weak market for sales, warning an immediate exodus from the highway payroll as the budget cannot sustain current staffing. The measure follows Huey Long's era actions and a repeal of a planting holiday provision amid legislative debates on cotton policy.
