who ol)l)osed a direct appropriation on
the grounds of economy, yet 'allowed'
t $50,000 appropriation to go thirough
without a referendum for further road
ievelopment."
Let's see if the assertion of The
Chronicle is correct. The three bond
bills weor sent from the House to the
Senate by the~ Laurens delegation in
the House. I held up all three bills.
