Interim Group
Speeds New
Budget Set-up

SACRAMENTO, Sept 25. up
A joint interim budget committee
meeting has instructed ROLAND
Bandergrift, legislative auditor, to
draft laws for its consideration
which he said are needed to elimi-
nate certain Wasteful practices" in
state government.
The committee will hold a series
Of meetings before the 56th legis-
lature corvenes in January, Senator
william p. Rich, chairman, said He
added that the chairman and men,
bers Cf the assembly ways and
means and senate finance commit
tees would be invited to participate
and said the budget committee will
submit a report of its deliberations
to the legislature when the 1945-47
budget is submitted.
TO SPEED BUDGET
This will speed adoption of the
budget and reduce the length of the
legislative session, Rich believes.
Subjects covered by the legisla-
ton Vandergrift is 10 prepare in
clude sick leave, overtime and vaca-
ton privileges extended to state
employees; purchasing procedure; al
!, locations of funds by state boards
| instead of by legislative enactment,
and methods of auditing state sub
ventions OF counties.
Vandergrift said automatic" in
creaSes in state obligations will re-
suit in l945-47 budget "at least
| $100, 100000 larger than the current
$500 100000 budget.
Cne new expense the state has
incurred, he told the committee, is
support of the teacher retirement
! fund, which he said will involve a
biennial appropriation of approXi-
mately $28oc0,0OC for the next 12
to 16 years
URGES SCHOOL AUDIT
The auditor urged the auditing
of state allocations to school dis
tricts and other subventionS. The
state has no way at present of tell
ing whether TIE latter ARE used
for the purposes for which they are
paid to the counties" Vandegrift
said
The interim committee adjourned
after voting its opposition 10 two
propositions on the November bal
lot, the so-called $50 at co. pension
measure and an initiative which
would increase state subsidies to
the school districts. Speaker Charles
w. Lyon, an assembly member of
! the committee, protested that the
action was mot within the province
! of this committee"

Absenteeism, Bad
Conduct of Some
EMPLOYEES Raped

Absenteeism and improper con-
duct on the part of many employees
were given as barriers to the con-
tinued holding of jobs by many
people in the postwar world by
Charles F. Rogers, industrial secre-
tary of the st. Paul Urban League,
in an address on "Some Suggestions
How We May Hold Our Jobs After
the War;" at the regular monthly
meeting of the St. Paul Branch of
the National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People
Tuesday night at the Halle @.
Brown Community House. Mr..
Rogers said that although there
are no conclusive figures to show
that Negroes are guilty of absen-
teeism any more than workers of
other races, the Negro must do his
job better on the whole than others
to retain his job in the postwar
world.
The Minneapolis Branch of the
National Association for the Ad-
vancement of Colored People was
lauded for the support it is now Civ
ing James Parker, the owner of
the Moonglow Chicken Shack in
keeping his place of business open,
after he had been forced to close
