CHARGES UNABsoRBED ALIENS
 WITH sLACKLNG AND INDUSTRIAL MENACE

million dollars be transferred from the civil list fund to the sinking fund, which was done At the end of the fiscal year ending September 30, 1915, the net indebtedness of the state was S11, ,920,0O2.54. On the 30th day of September, 1918, we had sufficient amounts in our sinking fund and civil list fund to pay this indebtedness and leave a surplus of S642, 572.29, which is an improvement in the financial condition of the state in three years of $12,562,574.83 and is the first time the state treasury has shown a surplus since 1907.
 I recommend that the sum of $6,000,000 be transferred from the civil list fund to the sinking fund. think this would be very satisfactory to those who have paid the taxes which made possible this encourag- ing financial showing and would give assurance that the sinking fund would be sufficient to pay off bonds as they mature. If this transfer is made it will leave $2,O25.078 in the civil list fund and is sufficient for the needs of the state until added to in the regular course of business.
 State Board of Finance.
 The 1915 General Assembly pro vided for a State Board of Finance consisting of the Treasurer, the Comptroller, and the Tax Commis- sloner, ex officio, and three electors to be appointed by the governor. This board has hearings upon all items of appropriations asked for by institu- lions supported wholly or in part by the state, tabulates the items and re- ports the same to the General As sembly with their recommendations It was the adoption for the business of the state of the same intelligent methods which are adopted by sue cessfully conducted private business enterprises, and results in intelligent and economical action on financial ap- propriatios by the General Assembly. This board devotes a considerable time between the sessions of the Gen eral Assembly and thus accumulates information as to the institutions needing state aid.
 The three electors on this board l each receives $500 for his services, which is very small compensation for the time they devote to the duties Of the board.
 The General Assemblies of 1915 and ! 1917 made commendable records for efficiency and economy, and I trust that you will make a record as good or better. The obvious way to expe- dite business Is to dispose of it as it Is presented as promptly as is con- | sistent with It's due consideration. If had more time to prepare tlllz message I might have included some | ether matters, but will do so later if it seems to me to be necessary.
