In order that the next session OF
the Legislature may not be called
upon to meet deficiency bills. and TO
lead the departments Of State into
the path OF economy and keep within
the bounds of appropriations. State
Controller George A. Cole has issued
an edict, one that touches several de-
partments and which will probably
bring forth some discussion through
out the State. says Tuesdays Carson

The following letter has been re-
ceived BY the various members Of the

Gentlemen A study Of the So
called deficiency" statutes of Nevada
(1ss7-s0 and ~ls15-21) by myself.
and others more qualified, leads to
the belief that the same are in active
conflict with Article III and Article
". Section 1s. of the Constitution OF
the State of Nevada.
The said statutes assume to grant
to your board the power to amend ap-
preparation acts by increase. and
thereby attempt to delegate to the ex-
ecutiye authority the power of the
legislative branch of the State gov
eminent. This is certainly a dan
gerous type Of legislation and un-
doubtedly a perversion of the consti-
tutional intent.
"A recent instance wherein a def
cheney resolution would grant to a
certain department of the State the
authority to more than double the
limit set by the Legislature on its ex-
penses indicates the possibilities un-
der the statutes in question. II the
law permits this first extension it
could also allow any further increas-
es your board might approve for any
or all branches of the State govern
ment, and the legislative %appropria-
tions would be a joke, the budget
law a farce and the Constitution a
mockery.
1T may be said that such a con-
| dition will not happen. and that the
idea is absurd. But 1t could happen

State CONTROLLER COLE ISSUES ECONOMY ED|CT

IL these deficiency statutes are valid.
and as the Constitution is intended
TO prevent such absurdities, il is ap-
parent that such statutes are not
within the spirit of the fundamental
law.
The wording of the Constitution
is. NO money shall be drawn from
the treasury but in consequence OF
appropriations made by law" 1t
might be urged as a technical defense
Of the deficiency system that its ap-
propriations must be submitted to
and approved by the Legislature be-
fore payment. This however. is eva
sion. Everybody knows that the
State will pay for labor performed or
supplies that it has consumed; and
there is a strong possibility-even a
probability-that such debts could
be enforced even without legislative
approval. The State haying-consti-
tutionally or not-authorized its OFF,
GERS. as agents to do certain things.
could not gracefully plead immunity
from payment because it had acted in
ignorance of the limits of its author
ity. Surely this would be a humili-
ating position that justice would not
sustain.
Experience in Office convinces me
that any department of government
can hold itself within its appropria-
ton IL it has to. Especially is this
rue now under the present declining
prices. Practically should it be
rue at this period when our citizens
generally are, of necessity. practicing
severe economies in private affairs.
The State should set a good example,
and it can il 1t will.
For the above reasons. permit me
to respectfully advise you that this
Office will not issue warrants or So
called deficiency certificates" that
will extend the expenses Of any insti-
tuition or department beyond the spe-
cifc appropriations OF the Legisla-
ture. Very truly yours,

MORE BREEDERS WILL
GRANT LONGER CREDIT


st. Paul, April 21.-Another
group of Minnesota farmers today an
nounced its intention of putting into
practical operation one Of the finan-
cial policies demanded by American
agricultural interests.
w. E. Morris, secretary Of the
Aberdeen-Angus Breeders associa-
ton, notified the Minnesota Farm
Bureau federation that the associa-
ton members had agreed to support
a financing plan by which farmers
can purchase pedigreed stock on long
time credit. avis F.
american farmers have been de-
manding long time credits as abso-
lutely vital to agriculture" Mr.. Nor
ris said. "The Angus Breeders as
sociation wants to prove that the
farmers themselves are willing to
practice what they preach. Rather
than see many farmers lose the op-
portunity to buy pedigreed stock that
might be building up fine herds in the
northwest, the association will help
make necessary credit arrangements" "
The Minnesota Hereford Breeders
association, through the Farm Bureau
federation, was the first to announce
a long time credit plan for northwest
farmers. Offices of the Angus asso-
citation are at the University farm, st.
Paul. f~H.,,I. H.
