RECEIPTS E RELIEF AMOUNT Jackson county will know nothing definite relative to the apportion ment of state and federal funds for road and other relief work, until the final figures are available on the auto license receipts and a close study of the federal unemployment relief bill had been made.

As soon as the preliminaries are cleared, the county court and other agencies will confer to determine the securing and use of funds from state and national sources.
