According to latest information from Washington, Congressman Carl Vinson, in whose district the Bal¥s Ferry bridge project is lo cated, has decided to urge the fed eral bureau of roads to use the huge fund, now tied up because of a controversy between Gover nor Talmadge and the Roosevelt administration, to build farm-to market roads. It is known that county com missioners throughout the state are very much in favor of the $19,000,000 fund being allocated’ directly to the counties for farm to-market roads. I The board of governors of thel Georgia Association of (‘,ountyl Commissioners meets in Atlanta within the next two weeks, if not before, to act on the proposal. Sentiment in favor of the plan is being heightened particularly in view of the fact . that the ,sta,te' highway board owes the counties $26,000,000 for which the counties went intr debt in order to build state roaos in the early days of the highway construction program. It is said that the Roosevelt ad ministration apparently favors use of the money in this way by di rect appropriation to the counties, in view of the fact that Governor Talmadge will not agree to vari ous compromise offers which have recently been made for the pur pose of releasing the money. Senator David Atkinson of the Savannah district, returning,from" Washington a few days ago, éle-| clared Washington authorities seem favorable to allgcating thel funds direct to the counties andl predicted that that course will be followed.
