INDIANA EMBARRASSED BY
DEMOCRATIC ADMINISTRATION
Finds It Necessary to Use Sinking and Benevolent In
stitution Funds to Meet Expenses of the
Commonwealth

| As final resort to insure the payment
or all current expenses by the end Of
| the fiscal year. September 20, the state
| board of f1nacec has announced 1t has
taken s4S1,s71.32 from the benevolent
| institution fund and $14S,s64.45 from
the sinking fund and placed both
amounts. aggregating $3.50. 6s5.77, in .ns
general fund of tho state.
For several days the hnanciers of the
state administration have been busily
engaged in figuring state revenues and
expenses with the settlement on Sep
TENDER 80 in mind. and the situation
| finally was found to be so serious that
1t was decided to lift" more than half
million from other funds for the bene-
MT of the general fund.
Auditor OF State W. II. O'Brien saws
that his estimate of the running ex-
penses of the state up to September so.
the close Of the fiscal year. when set
up against the revenues of the com
monwealth for the same length of time
would leave approximately $4,000 bal
ance IN the state treasury at that time
This is one of the smallest balances. 1t
is said, that has ever been left in the
state treasury at the end of a year
In explanation of the situation. a
great many things have to be consid-
cred. according to Mr.. O'Brien. He as
serted that the legislature of 1909
(Democratic) saddled upon the state
one of the largest burdens of appro-
priations in It's history without provid-
ing any increase in the revenues To
Offset this. he declared. the 1911 legfs-
iature (Democratic) cut down the total
appropriations by a figure Approximate
ing 100000
This amount, he believed, with the
recent addition of the remainder of the
sinking fund of the state and the
benevolent institution fund. would leave
the state at the end OF the fiscal yea
on the safe side Of the ledger.
The Legislature of 1909 passed an ac.
legalizfng the transfer OF the state
sinking fund to the general fund and II
was under this act that the board Of
finance took steps this week to make
the transfer. Since the tax levy to
create the state benevoIenu institution
fund was placed upon the counties in
1891, 1t has been the rule to transfer
this fund TO the general fund when
needful. according to state oficiaIs
