MORE DAVIS SLICING
State Auditor Cuts Down Budgets
With Economy AK.

After slicing $765,450 from the
recommended appropriation Of the
board Of control, institutions under
the supervision Of the board will re-
ceive $26.S71 more than in 1913, ac-
cording to figures of w. E. Davis,
state auditor, in his biennial report.
The board of control after slashing the
requests of various state institution
superintendent asked for $2,296, $50
with which to run the institutions for
the next biennium. Davis cut this
amount to $1.531,500.
OF the thirteen new buildings asked
for by the board Davis favors only
two The buildings endorsed by the
state auditors are one at the hospital
at Larned and one at the Parsons hos
pital for epileptics.
= The acquisitions of the state hos
pital at Topeka shared in the state
auditors slashing. For this institu-
ton the board asked 100000 and this
amount Davis cut to $4,000.
BY holding the figures down to his
recommendation Davis says it will be
possible to get through the next BIZ
ennium without any increase in the
amount raised by direct taxation
Owing to the fact that the last Iegis-
lature appropriated more money than
it provided means of raising, the state
is a month behind in its accounts

Both men are anxious to meet each
