Deputy State Treasurer Fred A. Paulus said such a proposal was attempted some 20 years ago Cut was rejected by the legislature. "My proposal," Dorman said, "is not to disturb the license fees, but after administration expenses. there maytbe a surplus that could go into the general fund. This would be appropriated by the leg islature and prove a help to the taxpayers."' - Dorman said these agencies us ually expand their operations as their fees warrant, but if by economy , they have ' surplus, it might be diverted to general fund costs. The committee took no-definite action on Dorman's proposal. The committee was advised that when the new state office build ing is completed there will be plenty of space. The idea was ad vanced that 18 agencies now on a . self sustaining basis could be administered from a single room to save typists, stenographers and other office employes. s It was brought out that one agency which has three inspectors recently asked the budget direc tor tp approve appointment of 11 additional inspectors and was an noyed when asked for detailed in formation of his request.
