Michigan lawmaker warns on spending as budget gaps grow
Lansing faces a looming budget crunch as Sen. Elmer R. Porter warns lawmakers they may spend up to ten million dollars more than available, with a deficit estimated at 72 million by June 30. The 428 million dollar budget may not cover expenses, while bills propose higher funding and tax measures. Political maneuvering and potential belt tightening in education and building sectors accompany talks on pensions, a capital outlay bond, and a constitutional convention. Meanwhile Alden B. Daw of Midland receives the Michigan Society of Architects gold medal for architectural achievement.
