Ohio Finance Director May Aid Reagan Budget Cuts
Ohio Finance Director Richard L. Krabach met with Governor Reagan and key aides to discuss Ohio’s 1964-68 fiscal crisis solutions. Krabach described 5,000 state layoffs and a 9.1 percent across the board cut plus a business-led program review saving 68 million dollars. He cautioned the California situation differs but noted similar fiscal instability. Reagan said no mass firings would occur and attrition would handle reductions.
