SACRAMENTO, Cal, Jan. II. -
Governor Young's biennial budget
for the period of 1927-1929 will to-
tai approximately $192, 100000.
This was revealed through the
governor 8 announcement that the
total increase of from $6,000,000 to
$1,000 900 III fixed charges and ap-
proximately 81 100000 in permanent
improvement would represent about
half the entire increase over the
Richardson budget of 1925-1927.
Although the amount authorized
to Governor Richardson for his
budget was S1,212,692, that fig
ure was cut to $177,425,059 on ac-
count of saving approximately So
100000 on schools, according to
State Controller Ray L. Riley. This
amount would be subject to still
further reduction if some $500 900
in the state highway fund is not
spent, Riley pointed out.
Relief of crowded conditions in
state hospitals, prisons and other in
stitutions will be brought about
through the increase in the allowance
for permanent improvements, the
governor said.
Increase Slight
owe haven't caught up on our
building program since the war,
he said. 81 can safely say, how,
ever, that the percent of increase in
the states expenditures over the
l925l927 biennium will be less than
that biennium was over l923-l925.
Actual expenditures in l923-25 to
tailed $140,42l ,443, according to
Riley's figures.
Included in Governor Young
forthcoming budget will probably be
$46,200,000 for general fund agen
cies; $27,900,000 for special or self
supporting agencies; $8,900.000 fol
automobile plate tax income to coun
ties and $20,700,000 for gasoline tan
income to counties; $2,500,000 fOl
motor vehicle department admins
tration, and 100000 for other IN
budgeted items.
The governor reiterated his de
claration that his budget would, foI
the first time, carry all state ex
penditures. This would include
many items for which special bills
were formerly passed. More than
100 such appropriation bills We're
signed after the last legislative ses
sion, according to the governor.
