Prospects Bright for Highway Aid Release
Washington says prospects for releasing 4.65 million dollars in federal highway aid to Arkansas improved after the House passed the Cartwright bill. The measure would free funds without matching requirements and would apply to 4.25 million dollars in regular federal aid plus 400 thousand for secondary roads from earlier appropriations. The state negotiates with the Bureau of Public Roads to obtain the 4.25 million under a law that pays aid to states removing tolls from bridges. The McClellan amendment conditions release on highway revenue spent for roads and retirement of highway bonds. Under Arkansas 1934 refunding, 75 percent of highway revenue goes to road maintenance.
