Institutions to
Exceed Budget
Financial reports from state in
stitutions covering the first six
months of the current biennium
indicate that at least three will be
unable to hold their operating costs
within the 1947 legislative appro
priations and will have to seek re
lief from the state emergency
board.
Roy Mills, board of control sec
retary, attributed this situation to
the gradually rising costs of com
modities and wage increases. State
Treasurer Leslie M. Scott predict
ed last week a deficit of more than
$300,000 In the food accounts ofl
the institutions by the end of the
biennium. Mills said Scott's esti
mate was conservative.
The Oregon State Employes as
sociation recently filed application
for a wage increase for state work

sua pending.
