IT IS ABOUT the same as if the
State Highway Commission should
decide to split the state's road
money equally between the 294
counties in the state—without re-
gard to the traffic load or number
of people in each county. The easy
way is to "divide the pot,” but
this does not seem to be the fair
way. Commissioner Jess White has
voted against the reduction of Pre-
cinct 4 funds; he has been out voted
by the other three members of the
court.
THE PRRSRNT trend of the
court is to pool all funds for road
and bridge work, as would be done
in the unit system, without taking
the accompanying step that is
needed—the hiring of a qualified
road engineer to plan and direct
the entire county road operation
upon a county-wide basis, which

couple of steps to take—continue
the cut of Precinct 4’s ad valorem
