Henry Rose. assistant secretary OF
the senate, was sauntering down the
capitol steps few days ago. and was
stopped by man, who said:
"Pardon me, but could you please
tell me what this building is?"
Rose was knocked OF his pins at the

reason that that was the first oppor
tunity the legislature had of making
the necessary appropriations. In ad-
ditiOn to these matters, detiCie lcies
authorized by the emergency board
in 1912, amounting to 1924, 1853 IS,
were taken care Of the next year
19l3--as had been the custom in the
past. That the large balance had not
been accumulated as the result OF
any neglect to the state institutions
is shown by the provision which was
made during 1914 for these several
departments. During the biennium of
1914 there was disbursed for new
buildings and lands for our universi-
ties, normal schools, state hospitals
and correctional institutions 1921,
S34.41. The items making up this to-
tai should be considered as better
ments because the buildings for the
most part are Of fireproof construction
and the lands will continue to grow
in value. In 19O9-10 the state spent
for buildings and lands S1,774,358.76.
In 1912 the disbursements for these
purposes were SILT ,427.95; SO that
the present balance in the genera
revenue fund is emphasized when we
consider that from it was taken in
permanent betterments in behalf of
state institutions as was provided in
the previous four years.
A Misapprehension Corrected.
In order to correct a misapprehen-
sion which seems to be more or less
general, not a dollar in the general
revenue fund is derived by direct tax
alton. Inasmuch as public opinion,
for or against government reforms,
often develops from the logic of cost
in dollars and cents to the individual,
it is regrettable that a propaganda
has been maintained in this state for
the apparent mischievous purpose of
befogging the public mind with ref
erence to our real financial condition.
The statement that a deficit existed
in the treasury has been too absurd
for consideration. Those who pur-
sucd that erroneous thought argued
from the contention that against the
cash balance in the treasury there
should be figured the sum total of ap-
preparations authorized by the general
assembly. For illustration: 1t was
said that if there were ten million dol.
lars in the treasury on the date that
an appropriation bill became legally
operative and the budget itself car.

state Aid Taken From wessvilIe.

The legislative committee on eduea-
ton reported 70 the senate bill which
would repeal the act passed in 1918
providing that the state pay $40
apiece on the tuition fees OF pupils
from the district Of WeHtYille IL the
New Haven High school the passage
Of this bill VIII mean that the West
Vile district VIII be put under an in
creased expense of more than $1,000
q year to maintain it's pupils in the
high school as result of the loss OF
this state aid.
There Is a general law which pro
vides that the state pay $50 apiece
on the tuition fees OF pupils from
towns in which there are no high
schools. who attend high schools IN
other towns. As Westvitle is not a
separate town. 1t did not como under
this general law, and a special act
was passed at the 1918 session Of the
legislature 10 put It on the same plane
with towns in this respect
The bin reported by the education
committee would repeal this special
act and again throw the entire ex.
pense of supporting it's high school
pupils onto the Westville school dis
trict.
westville at present has 1876 pupils
In the New Haven High School The
tuition fee for each one OF those pu-
pills is 800. Of which the state PAYS
$50 This figures out to s4.0S0 to be
paid by the state this year
Westyille, at present, Is the biggest
beneficiary under this state aid plan.
The bill to repeal this special act
applying to Westville was originated
IN the education committee. 1t is a
committee bill. Representative sam
uel Russell. Jr.. OF Middletown, house
chairman OF the education committee
said that the committee had thought
il only fair To repeal the act giving
westville this state aid inasmuch as
they had voted 20 reject bills for STINT
lar favors from other sections. One OF
the bills unfayorahly reported BY the
committee aud rejected by the legisla-
ture. he said, was TO provide similar
state aid TO bis own town OF Middle
town. The people in the town OF Mid
dletown outside the city of Middletown
wanted to send their children TO the
school in the city OF Middletown and
have the state pay $50 apiece on the
tuition the same as in Westville.
