the governor Will only be allowed
$500 for the next two years. while

mitsec win recommend a minimum
Of $1,000.

port the figures show that the gov
ernor asked for sio.eoe for the pur.
chase and maintenance OF hts auto
mobile for the coming two years.
Tho recommendation OF the commit.
tee was $1,000 and the house COM

same Recommendation.
That the figure Of $4,000 quoted
IN the report as tho governors re-
quest was mistake was the state
ment made by Representative James
