Curtis,| President of Virginia Farm Bureau, is urging all County Farm Bureau Presidents, (Gen. Daniel Noce is President of the Rappahannock County organization), to give particular emphasis NOW to the POLICY DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM of the Farm Bureau. Mr. Curtis asks all County Leaders to “make sure that' all members have the OPPORTUNITY to participate.” In this very important Farm Bureau activity, is the opportunity to demonstrate! our FAITH IN DEMOCRACY and accept our individual responsibility as we suggest ideas, search for facts, debate issues, and resolve all working policies for our organization,” he said. . -The policy development program is probably the most important one that Farm Bureau conducts. It is tied to the democratic processes, and Gen. Noce is making every effort to have all F.B. members participate. He is anxious that all Rappahannock farmers be thinking farmers and communicate their views to their representative in the legislatures.

Harrison Washington—Highway financing has become a 'major headache for both state and national treasuries, highway officials and legislators. In previous reports in this ■ space, we have considered some of the reasons tor the road money problem, and some of the questions raised by various proposals to bolster the fiscal structure of the federal-aid. roadbuilding plan. Wo have found that the highway dol-. lacs are being gobbled at an as rounding rate irt the extort to complcte, over a 13-year period, what is known officially as the National System of Interstate and Defense Highways. Because the Federal Government has agreed to put up 90 per j cent (up to 95 percent in certain ernes) of the cost of building this system, commonly referred to as “the superhighways”, most States have been trying to scrape up the, money for their shares. (In the regular grant-in aid program for primary and secondary roads, the Federal Government and the States split 50-50.) The supei^ highways are averaging out around $1.2 million a mile, however, with cost reacting $4 million a mile iri metropolitan area;, where 42 per cent of the interstate money is going, and many States, including Virginia, have been unable even tp put up enough of their 10 per cent money to get; all of Uncle Sam's 90 percent money. Inasmuch as the Federal Government is dmmitted by the Highway Act of 1956 to spend nearly $25 billion on the interstate sys tem, apart from its 50-50 contribu tion On me primaries wui sclumdaries (and the superhighway cost estimates already have increased by 50 percent), it might be worthwhile to review a few of the comments of the Comptroller General on the operations of the program to date. The Comptroller General is the principal auditor of the Fed eral Government, and an agent of the Congress. A 'sampling of two of his reports to Congress..the latest filed last month]..-presents an appalling picture of sloppy, unconscionably wasteful handling of the taxpayers money. The Federal Bureau of Public Roads, which has tharge of passing out the federal mo|ney, has suffered from -“a lack of top professional leadership in financial management”, according io the Comptrol ler General, and a check of the bureau’s accounts have “disclosed numerous inaccuracies and deficiencies”. In one intsance, the fig ures were found to be off more than $5 million. The field offices of the bureau had such difficulty getting the proper figures to Washington headquarters that discrepancies found in one checkup totaled $2.7 million in one direction and $13 million in another. According to the Comptroller General, the Bureau of Public Roads had not developed an effective system for insuring that the federal tax dollars were applied properly by the States to the construction of roads. This resulted he said, in a wide disparity in costs among the States, notably be cause of slipshod, or frankly political, right-of-way estimates in some areas. Here*are a few of the comments. “The costs estimated by the States were over or under-estimated by reason of errors of a wide variety, such as improper unit prices, omissions and computations.” “For most of the States we could not verify the reasonableness of the estimates for the costs of right-of-way because of the inadequacy or lack of supporting documentation.” . "New York right-of-way costs include an Smourit of $24.8 million for 35.3 miles of right-of-way, the estimate for which, we. were informed. was' prepared in less than 1 day.” “Tile Georgia estimate was over stated by about $19.7 million because of various errors in computation. As a consequence of the above errors, the cost? of South Carolina and Alabama were also overestimated by: $960,000 and $41,000 for three border bridges for which Georgia had prepared die estimates.” * *Tn several States, right-of-way employees are political appointees.
