An appropriation of the Institute
Of Government is shown as a new
appropriation this year, but this is
not the case, for this also is a
bookkeeping change in the budget,
last years expenditure for this
item being shown in another fund.
No appropriation has been made
this year for the Wrightsville Beach
Water Carnival, nor for advertising
Carolina Beach. Last years appro-
priation for special officers at Le-
gion field during the annual Coastal
Fair has also been eliminated. Also
missing is an appropriation for the
iron lung fund, such as was made
last year, because the lung has now
been purchased and there is no
need for such an appropriation.
Superior Court
Last years purchase Of typewrit-
ers, electric fans, pad locks, law
books and the like for New Hanover
superior court. which will not have
to be repeated this year, makes
it possible for the commissioners
to reduce the appropriation for the
operation of the. court this year
from the Sill, 1857 0 spent last year
to only $10,913 this year.
Another place in this item where
a reduction in the budget has been
effected is in the item for prep
