anything at all, II should be able to de

the trade as the "drive-away' has been

greater than was al first believed, and

The governor has practically decid-
ed to veto none OF these items, but TO
secure the agreement Of the heads Of
the departments and institutions az.
fected TO withhold from expenditure
the amounts indicated. This will per-
NIT the items to remain in the BILL

reduce them, and will allow use Of the
remaining amounts of the items not
asked to be withheld. Also the sug.
gested items are still tentative only

slider appropriation matters, and it is
not expected that any of the bills viii
