The Legislature should do this. 3 County roads are in a very bad fix. Some-of them, in wet wea- ther, are impassable. Last spring, a delegation of citizens from the little community of Floral Bluff, on the St. Johns River in Duval County, appeared before the Du- val County Commissioners and Church meets at g/asked that some work be done! {on the only road by which Floral | Bluff could be reached. Citizen! after citizen pointed out that after a heavy rain it was abso-} lutely impossible for a jcar pass over the road. A lady said before. in the city after a heavy rain. i asked the commissioners to hard-| surface the boggy road. When! the com: issioners explained that! there was no money for such pur-} pose, the citizens then asked that} somé slag be placed on the boggy! places in the road. Again, ‘the! commissioners explained that they | were without funds. The eftizens | then asked for drainage of ‘the | boggy areas. The commissioners | had to explain once more that) they had no money. It despera- tion, the citizens asked that some | ve Christian Science Society | sand be hauled in and dumped on! ts at 11 a. m.

By turning the seventh cent of the gasoline tax over to the coun- ties for county roads, about $5,- 000,000 a year would be available for rural roads. That. would build a lot of new farm-to-mar- ket roads, and also fill up a lot of bog holes in roads already built. County roads mean just as much to people who have to use them as state highways mean to people who use them. ;And more than one-third of the people of; Florida use rural roads. Of Flor-{ ida’s 2,250,061 population in 194: a total of 813,635 lived in rural | areas, and presumably used coun- | ty roads more than they used; state highways. There is no val-, id reason why at least one cent! of the gas tax should not be spent on county roads that directly benefit more than one of ev three people in Florida. { Furthermore, a_ disproportion- ate amount of gas tax money is now spent on state highways as against county roads. According to the Division of Research and Records, State Road Department, there are approximately 45,000 miles of Florida roads outside the | limits of cities and towns. Of this total, 8,600 are now being admin- istered by the State Road De-, partment. Thus, there are more than four miles of county roads The State Road Department gets four cents of the gas tax— approximately $20,000,000 a year —to build and maintain 8,600 miles of state highway It cer- ainly seems fair and reasonable at tax— least one cent of the gas Carey have been appointed creW) shout $5,000,000 a year—to build and maintain 36,400 miles of county roads.
