has left s64s,3el.s0. Further expenses
in connection with the Rehabilitation
and also foN the genera, militia al

which will be further reduced by the
first of the year.

leaving the actual amount for war
purposes ss50.O0O. The $4,000 fund
has been expended with the exception
of about $500, still remaining in the
fund which win probably run until the

One of the big OUTLAWS from the state
war appropriation was Cor .-the MAIN
tenance of troops of the state for the
two weeks after they were first called
out before being federalized by the
government and for certain equipment
which was provided tkem at that time.
In addition 20 the funds and support

ton a sum for incidentals. These also

well as salaries for extra help en-

The state board of control and also
the state board of education still have
to their, credit appropriations made by
the last general assembly which are
unexpended. When the war came on
building operations ceased at the state
Institutions except such work as had
to be finished up~or was considered alb
solutely essential. 1t is probable that
this work will be carried on to COM
pletion next year and some further
provision may be made for - at the
coming session of the legislature.
All state departments, however, are
inclined to go light on Improvements
next year even though practically i'm

year. Several departments will ask for
increased salaries for positions in their
departments pointing out that it is
becoming increasingly difficult to Sc
cure competent help for state work; be-
cause the salaries paid %by CONNER
cial concerns are so much higher.
Budgets are now being prepared by
the state departments and sent in to
the governor for the next biennial per-

by the coming general assembly.
