State Board Finishes Budget Work Amid Rising Expenses
The Montana State Board of Examiners completed the biennial budget and sent it to the printer for the legislature. State Accountant William Hosking notes agency spending more than doubled over ten years due to higher government demand, with total expenditures rising from 7.88 million in 1920-21 to 16.98 million in 1929-30. The plan for 1931-32 calls for general fund appropriations of 2.50 million and 2.70 million for the following year, plus 1.287 million annually from a new three-mill tax, with further fees, investments, and federal funds.
