Pressure Mounts for Montana Special Session on Postwar Plans
The Montana legislature faces pressure for a special session to approve $4.5 million postwar construction funds and $250,000 for engineering. Delays by the Capitol planning board and the postwar planning commission, chaired by Ford, push timing toward 1947. Education budgets for fiscal 1947 loom large due to enrollment growth salary increases and military returnees, with accrediting decisions possibly raising costs further.
