- Description:
- The document discusses the controversy between the United States Public Roads Administration and Oklahoma over road projects. Director H.E. Bailey and the Oklahoma Highway Commission are seeking approval for state projects that had been blocked by the PRA. Governor Turner has expressed confidence in Bailey's ability to handle the matter without political interference. The PRA's reasons for denying funds for certain projects, including Highway 74 and 51, are questioned, with the author suggesting that political motives may be at play.
