McKeIdin 10 Insist
AGENCIES Hold Line
In Next Years BUDGET
BY the Associoted Press

BALTIMORE, July 20. Gov.
McKeldin has served notice he ex-
poets state agencies to get along
on the same amount of money
next year as they are now and, in
fact, is hoping they will ask for
less.
Of course, he said, he antici-
|pates some increases in individual
accounts will be necessary to
meet required salary increases,
higher prices and expansion of the
roads. Otherwise, departments
shouldn't ask more for the fiscal
year starting next June than they
received this year.
Indeed it is my hope" stated
the governor, that. each budget
request presented will show an
overall reduction.
Improvements of operation are
not to be discouraged, but they
should be financed by getting
more for each dollar spent. by
|economizing wherever possible and
by increasing efficiency generally" !"
Gov. McKeldin's hopes were ex-
pressed in statements sent to
state agencies instructing them to
make up their budget requests
which are due September Is.
The State will adopt a new type
of budget next year showing the
functions for which the money is
being spent instead of itemizing
each expense.
Gov. McKeldin reiterated his
intention to ''hold the line" on
taxes and that "it still is my OBJ
|jective to reduce taxes wherever
possible" The last legislature cut
the state income tax.
