Pending receipt of the complete text of the report by the Osborne association criticising conditions at the state training school for boys members of the state board of con trol refused to comment on the re port J. 8. Murray, fingerprint ex pert at the state prison, however, called attention to the fact that finger printing at the boys' school, to which the Osborne report object ed, was ordered by the board of con trol five years ago over the objection of Sam Laughlln, superintendent of the institution, who feared that the practice would lead to public criti cism. In spite of the fact that general fund revenues for the next biennium will exceed those of the 1939-40 bi ennium by approximately $1,500,000 the legislature will actually have less money available for appropriation purposes than it had two years ago. This is due to the fact that relief needs will dip into the general fund for approximately $2,500,000 to sup plement profits from the state's li quor monopoly. This drain on the treasury, exceeding the 1939 approp riation by approximately $1,900,000 more than off-sets the estimated in crease in revenue, most of which is accounted for by the six per cent anuual Increase, which* compound ing annually as It does, will increase the tax base for the two year peri od by $1,329,282 over the 1939 and 1940 levels.
