Bill seeks halt on all road building in Indiana
Indiana lawmakers consider a bill by Rep Edsar B Fagin to suspend road bond issues and halt road construction until existing debt falls below 2 percent of assessed property value. The measure would bar counties from issuing new bonds for gravel or other roads while debts exceed the limit, with refunds allowed only after current obligations are liquidated. The House adjourned, and a dinner for American Legion leaders was noted, along with motions on the Pradiston reformatory data and other bills postponed or advanced.
