Moody Holds Line on Appropriations Delay in Texas
Governor Moody refused to approve expenditures beyond projected revenues, signaling a stalemate over emergency appropriations. He noted revenue bills lack emergency status, citing a tax proposal that would add about 800000 annually but not take effect for 90 days after adjournment. Educational, prison, and charitable institutions requested hundreds of thousands for 1930 and 1931, with totals approaching 1 million in 1931. Moody projected a general revenue balance uncertain without new funding.
