THURSDAY OCTOBER 29. 1853
LEGISLATIVE RECORD Continued
Continued from yesterday

The Legislature, apparently, did not take into consid-
Grafton some 100000 in transfer Of escrow funds includ-
ed in the 1859 actual revenues which would not necessarily
recur in 1860. Nor has the Legislature noted the falling
off of certain operating revenues approxinating 100000,
nor the fact that the Williams Amendment to the Federal
Estate Tax laws and the results Of the current Congress
sional inquiry into our tax exemption laws might well
operate to decrease our revenues substantially in the fiscal
year 1860. \ '-sstAN9
Common prudence and good Judgment should dictate
that we cannot safely base our 1860 fiscal program upon
the hope that good fortune will smile on us to the extent
Of a windfall Of half a million dollars over and above our
revenues Of 1859. The fact that our revenues have in
creased by $2.OOO,O0O between 1856 and 1859, an average
increase Of $666,O00 a year. does not necessarily mean
that this rate of increase will be maintained. In fact, we
might well be reaching the point Of s~aturation where our
total economy may not be able to Withstand the impact
of an $8,0O0,OO0 budget.
IN the face Of all these complex factors, | have no al
tentative but to control, as best as | can, the 1860 fiscal
program in the manner outlined above. Any less drastic
action could have. disastrous effects five were to operate
on the highly inflated figures of the Legislature and then
be forced to cut back later in the fiscal year if the revenues
do not naterialize.

If the Governor were to d~isapprove Bill No. 844 there will

Senator Ronald de Lugo discussed the Governors
