'Government Not Dispos
ed to Dish Out Money
. Free-Handedly
} A meeting of the Athens com
lmittee to maké recommendations
Ito city council in regard to apply
ing for a loan from the publie
'works board for municipal con
struction here was held this
morning and the following steps
authorizea:
1. Combpilation of ali legal data
which the board will require, in
cluding "recent amendmeiits to the
city charer.
2. Compilation of statistics cov-
loring unemployment of labor here
that would be employed in the
various construction projects
which the city is considering.
| 3. Estimates on the cost of the
| various projects.
The committee, with Mayor A.
G. Dudley presiding, discussed
the various regulations which will
govern the operations of the fed
eral public works board in this
as well as other states, and de
cided on the above steps pending
I"interpretations” of the regulations
lby,the board, -or the headquarters
at Washington.
According to tentative regula
tions which have been sét up to
govern the board, it perhaps will
be difficult for any municipality,
county or state to get the govern
ment money and, at the same
time, carry out proposed projects
at a cost which would be possible
if they issued bonds and super
vised the work themselves.
The foremost question before
the committee, therefore, is
whether it will pay Athens to
borrow money from the public
works board, if it can qualify for
the loan, or issue bonds for the
improvements which are said to
be necessary. This angle of the
matter will be thoroughly studied.
~ While the federal government
‘will give to agencies borrowing
public works fund 3% percent of
the amount sought, the Athens
committee does mnot yet know
whether the restrictions on the 70
percent which will have to be paid
‘back will be such as to make such
a loan a profitable venture for
'the city.
The federal government's chief
concern is to bring about re-em
ployment and, at the same time,
‘safeguard the loans which it
'makes. The regulations it has pre
scribed for the boards to follow
‘do not apparently make it possi
['ble for these loans to be made on
a basis which would jeopardize
the government's chance to col
lect the money. So far, there is
Jittle indication that the federal
government has in mind cancel
ling the loans some time in the
’future, as many people seem to
believe.
! The projects which Athens is
considering include additions to
the whité and Negro school build
ings, waterworks extension, exten
sion of sewers and paving. Mayor
}‘Dudley said much of this work is
absolutely necessary, but that
‘the main question to decide is
whether Athens taxpayers can get
‘the work done more cheaply by
!use of public works money, or by
n city bond issue.
A discussion of the regulations
vovering the making of public
works loans revealed that the
government is not going to dish
out the money in any free-handed
manner.
