the appropriation was intended. On the contrary, the broadest
possible @ is used, to-wit: “Additional persomel re-
quirements for year ending 1942." fhe main object of the
appropriations provided by the rider is to enable the Board to
transact ite business efficiently and economically. We cannot
velieve that the ttem of $2700.00 waa to be evatlable only upon
the insteallietion of « new system of record keeping and the at-
temiant expense of installing such a aysten, {f, in tha opinion
of the Board, efficiency and economy will be attained in the
transaction of the business of the departuent by « reyiaion of the
present filing and record keeping system, rather than by the in-
stalletion of a nev system of recerd keeping.

Furthermore, it ia to be observed thet the Legislature
does not attempt to prescribe the character of the system of
pecord keeping to be installed. This, then, te left to the judg-
ment of the board. In the exercise of euch discretion, the board,
obviously, may determine te revise the existing record keeping
system, rather than inatall so nev system. If it does ao, it may,
in our opinion, empley and pay out of the $2700.00 item of appre-
priation the additional personnel necessary to sake euch revision.

Youra very truly
