6 FIFTH ANNUAL REPORT OF THE
mission and to the Archivist. In an archival institution as small as the
Hall of Records, where the Archivist must take care of the physical
plant, the grounds, the financial affairs, purchasing and budget, as well
as more orthodox Archival affairs, the cooperation of other state officers
is more necessary than otherwise and therefore more gratefully ac-
knowledged.
FINANCIAL
Despite the unusual expenses of the year due to the sponsorship
by the Hall of Records of the Historical Records Survey and the need
of supplies for the work of the WPA and NYA workers at the Hall,
the funds available remained the same. There was, however, an extra-
ordinary sum of $15,000 for equipment which had been allotted to the
Hall out of the General Bond Issue of 1939. Of this amount $9,538.04
was expended as follows :
