By Senator Howard C. Belton You have probably read in the daily press that Democratic leaders in the legislature have declared their intention to hold th general fund budget for the next biennium down to the $265 million as a mark to shoot at. The announcement o f this decision was contained in a statement issued by the office o f Rep. Pat Dooley, Speaker of the House. If the Democrats who have a majority on the ways and means committee, which pass­ es judgment on general fund appropriations, are serious in setting this budget ceiling they have not been paying attention to what has been happening around the legislature for the past eight weeks.
