Governor Vetoes State College Appropriation Measure
In Aarkisburg July 5 Governor James H. Du vetoed a $6,101 to $80 legislative appropriation for improvements at Pennsylvania state teachers galleries. He said the provision was in his budget and unnecessary. The 1947 legislature had allocated funds to colleges, with further sums for new equipment, maintenance, and repairs. Duff criticized the bill as having items not requested by the institutions, suggesting the measure was an afterthought rather than a long need.
