State Papers and Addresses

The computation, following which this tax reduction is recommended,
shows that with this reduction an adequate working fund will be available to
the State throughout the next two years, and that we will have a surplus left,
which should be maintained for any emergency.

Following is the Bond Issue which I am recommending as necessary for
construction and other capital improvements at State Institutions and Depart-
ments.
