The State Treasurer shall disburse the money so
held by him or her upon order of the officer, board or department of this State
authorized by act of the Congress of the United States of America or by any
rule, regulation, order, judgment or proclamation issued pursuant thereto to
direct the expenditure thereof. The moneys held by the State Treasurer
pursuant to the Act of Congress cited in paragraph number 4 of Section 1 of
this Act, however, shall be allocated and accredited to each county within or

acreage of each such county included within the national forest bears to
the total acreage in all counties included within such national forest as determined by the Department of Natural Resources and certified by
issuance of 2 vouchers each equal to 1/2 the amount allocated and
accredited to each county. One voucher shall be issued to the county
treasurer thereof and such amount shall be appropriated and used only for
the construction, reconstruction, improvement, maintenance or repair of
public highways within such county as the county board shall direct; the
other voucher shall be issued to the county superintendent of schools of
such county and by him or her allocated and paid over to the treasurers of
the school districts or parts of districts maintaining grades 1 to 8, each
inclusive, in such county in the proportion that the area of such land
within the boundaries of each school district or portion of such district
bears to the total area of such land within the county.
