| lowed the state charities will be very
| close TO the amount recommended by
sne ways and means committee They
nave spent several weeks on the APP
! preparation bills and are familiar with
every detail of these budgets. For this
| reason. it is hardly expected that the
! legislature will attempt to make Sc
! rlous changes in the committee re-
! ports The reports for the budgets
4 for the state educational and penal in
| sutuuons may not be made public for
a Week or ten days. Practically moth
| ing has as yet been done with the

i very little work has been done on the
requests from the agricultural college.
