In 1933 the Georgia Legislature
(Kissed an act requiring the State
Highway Department to pay back
to the couuties the money turned
iver to the state by the counties
that voted bonds tor the construc¬
tion of highways. This bill was
strongly opposed by some of the
counties that had not voted bonds,
and, therefore would not share in
ihi distribm ion of those funds.
Since the enactment of this legis¬
lation it has been fought through
thecouits, yet the State Supreme
Court recently rendered a decision
in our favor. Consevuently, our
