NO FEDERAL ROAD
FUNDS AVAILABLE
Noith Carolina cannot receive any
further apportionment of Federal
sld fund* unless Congress makes ad
ditional appropriations. Congressman
Godwin has been advised by the Bu
reau of Public Bond*. Already the
state has received a little more than
■U and *0110 quarter million dollars.
Information to this effect was sent
to tbc Sixth District member who
asked it in behalf of T. L. Riddle,
secretary of the Chamber of Corn
Commerce. Tbs chief of the bureau
wrote Mr. Godwin:
“I have the honor to acknowledge
receipt of your letter of the 22nd of
March with which yon enclose letter
of March 20, from Mr. T. L. Kiddle,
secretary of the hCamber of Com- ■
merce, Dunn, N. C-, in orUcb he 1
makes inquiry a* to the probability
of Conrroo* making additional ap
propriation to North Carolina for
building Mate highway*
AU of the appropriations already1
made by Congrem to aid the stales I
in road construction work have boon
apportioned to tho stales. From thesej
appropriations there has keen ap
portioned to Soath Carolina a total
of $0,270,660.68. Thera will br no1
more fundi apportioned to North
Carolina unlem Congress should
mnka additional appropriations for
that purpose. There are a number
of bills ponding providing for addi
tional appropriations, bat as yet none
of these have passed. The Secre
tary of Agriculture ia his last annual
report recommended that additional
