Tom Linde) Commissioner By TOM LINDER highway system has been der a relatively short period rthern states had many old ys long before Georgia cre- hways board or highway de- Even after-the Highway De- created, it was a long time revenue was provided : any of hi ag trans- travel, and with a highly ultural program in Geor- sential that we have, sible, hard surfaced roads vehicles and rural school to w hstan ys into which essential to have main line ing the State north to t to west. These main line ally require still heavier o carry the condensed traf- tt pass over them. ng the fact that we now gures fifty million dollars state money for highways ederal money allocated to the building and main- thousands and thousands of e roads, state routes and roads, presents many hose charged with the re- uilding and maintain- the money between yads and maintaining ex- self a big problem. If ex- inadequately maintained, brings about the ding the road. If ex- quately maintained, WEDNESDAY, JULY 28, 1954 NUMBER ae GHWAYS Prodatae the feats ae prop- 8 this means there will be less money with which to build new roads. All these prob- lems must lie in the sound judgment and discretion of those charged by law with the responsibility. The State of Georgia lies in the main path of tourists from the East and Middle West; and, Georgia naturally has more attractions for visitors than any other one State east of the Mississippi. These at- _tractions of nature can be developed and publicized so as to make the use of our highways by tourists profitable instead of a burden; and, this, of course, should be done. People living alone the roads should have convenient ingress and egress to make the use of the roads most conven- ient and, at the same time, make it easy for people living along the roads to have places of business and tourist attractions so located that travellers would find it easy and inviting to stop and stay a while. The development of a big marketing system for both farm and industrial pro- - ducts centralized in a big State Market at or near Washington, D. C. makes it imperative that our highways leading to market centers be adequate for all pur- . poses. The development and expansion of our rural areas consistently create a de- - mandand rightfully sofor addition- al short line highways connecting busi- ness centers through agricultural dist- ricts. : COUNTY CONTRACTS Georgia has approximately 9,000 con- DROUGHT ROTICE | am having survey made over the State to determine the ex- tent of drought damage in dif- ferent areas. As soon as this is completed, it will be forwarded to Washington in connection with our request for disaster aid for Georgia farmers. TOM LINDER Commissioner of Agriculture victs, most of whom are being used im road work in various counties of the State. Under the present system, expenditure of State money for maintaining convicts amounts to roughly $140.00 per man per year. In some other Southeastern States the cost per man runs as high as $1,000 _ per year. If county contracts with the Highway Department were discontinued, it would be necessary to construct another pent- tentiary at Reidsville to house these con- victs. They would be taken out of fresh air and sunshine and confined within the walls of a prison. Contracts between counties and the Highway Department are not negotiated contracts because the Law of the State sets out the price that the counties can receive per unit of work done. _ The use of the convicts in counties in- sures the building of farm to market roads in accordance with the wishes of the people in the county who elect their - county officers. In this way, all available funds for farm to market roads can be used without any additional overhead or additional employees in the Highway De- partment. As soon as funds are available for the | purpose, a clearing house should be set up as an induction center for all new con- victs where they can have a thorough physical examination and attention to in- sure their health and where they can be classified according to age and criminal records and assigned in groups-so as to encourage youthful offenders to mend their way of living and make it possible for-them to become useful citizens. TOLL ROADS There has been considerable discus- sion about toll roads in Georgia. Any busi- ness that depends upon tolls or other charges must have sufficient volume of business so that the tolls will pay for the original cost of construction and, at the same time, pay the cost of maintain- ing and operating it. This is true of toll roads. The records show that where it is necessary for a lot of people to cross a river, a toll bridge usually pays off. At the same time, toll roads do not pay off. They have to be subsidized with tax money to protect the bond holders. If Georgia were to build toll roads and. the traffic on such roads was insuiticient (Continued on Page 4) Address al] teri {c: publication ana requests to be put on the mailing list or change of address to STATE BU- REAU OF MARE STATE APTTOL, Atlanta: \ NATIONAL EDITORIAL aX 4 ch-AatioOn jsspetgric AGT NSE MEMBER Notices~ of farm produce and appurcenances admissible under postage* regulations inserted one time on each request and repeated only when request is accompanied by new copy of notice. : Under Legislative Act the Georgia Market Bulletin does not assume any responsibility fer any notice appearing in the @ulletin, nor for any transection resulting from published notices.
