John Francis Neyland, UC regent and former state board chairman, accused Gov Earl Warren's administration of enormous increases in expenditures. Speaking before the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco, Neyland said Warren made California the most free spending state, raising outlays beyond Culbert Olson's era. He argued fiscal policies began in 1946 and cited overstated revenue, taxpayer mulching, and wartime building and labor constraints as causes of surpluses.
