SEC. 7. And be it further enacted, That all contracts for
the above purposes shall be subject to the approval of the
Board of Public Works, and where appropriations are made
to an institution or department for two or more purposes,

pletion of any of the purposes specified, then such institu-
tions or departments may expend such balance upon any

Public Works may allocate out of any premium received
from the sale of bonds of this loan sufficient money to com-
plete construction work, and for equipment at State insti-

filed.
