Drain on road cash explained
Baltimore August 5 figures released by the State Roads Commission show how debt service on county road bonds reduces the 1 4 cent gasoline tax funds available for road maintenance and new construction. State system funds total 3 374 009 for new construction and 2 148 000 for maintenance while county road maintenance shares 1 002 000 and debt service 598 000 with 175 000 for new construction from fines and 208 000 Federal aid. Allegany and Calvert counties illustrate how debt service cuts road funds, with Allegany keeping 15 596 for maintenance and Calvert 6 325, both overdrawing in past years. Counties differ in fund distribution and calls grow for levying debt service in general levies.

County Roads Spending Under New Act Spurs Debate
The Roads Commission reports fast spending on new county roads since the 1933 act. Some say you cannot eat your cake and have it too. Before the act, revenue from the 11.3 cent tax funded county road building. The commission also has 519,000 from the Federal government for Stade crossing elimination, with a matching effect. No funds may be used for rights of way. the commission must find money for rights of way on grade crossings. The last Legislature capped state road maintenance at 2,146,000, excluding county systems, with estimates of 800,000 more needed for items like guard rails and curve straightening.
