LATHROP RESOLUTION GOES
I, THROUGH SENATE GREAT
ING SPECIAL COMMITTEE
TO EXAMINE CONDITIONS.
INVESTIGATE INSTITUTIONS
Educational Plants Will Be Prob
ed for Implications and Extra
vagance.

North DakOta'S financial affairs will
be thoroughly examined with view to
arriving at a fair distribution of state
funds. The senate concurred yester-
day in the Lathrop resolution which
provides for a committee of six to go
into the financial condition of the
state and make recommendations to
the house and senate committees on
appropriations as to the best method
of procedure in the matter of pro-
viding revenues and the proper appor-
tionment of the funds among the diff
ferent departments and institutions of
the state. '.
Thorough investigation.
This presumes a thorough investi-
cation into the educational, penal and
charitable institutions to see where
economies can be practiced. Special
attention will be paid to the charges
of duplication and waste in the ad-
ministration of the various education
al institutions.
The personnel of this committee in
sures a fair and impartial investiga-
tion as two of the members are the
CudlTLlen VI Lue ScIldIc anu llOuoe dp'
preparation committees.
Both the senate and house commit
tee on appropriations are to select
from their respective committees two
more members making in all COM
mittee of six.
Will Expedite Matters.
This will expedite matters and pre-.
vent considerable log-rolling in both
houses. The special committee is en-
powered to take what steps as are
deemed necessary to make thorough
investigation. ,t.
Owing to the reduction III the levy
TO the constitutional limit of four mills
there is a considerable shortage in
funds and it is doubtful whether any
of the requests from educational in
stitutions for new buildings will be al
lowed. Probably in the most pressing
instances, money will be granted for
such purposes, but absolute necessity
will have to be shown in each case.
There was practically no opposition
to the passage in the senate. Senator
Bronson proposed several amendments
which he withdrew when it was shown
that their was no necessity to broaden
the scope of the committees work.
