Heil Hunt assuage aid for Wisconsin economy drive
Governor elect Julius F Heil renews the state economy drive at budget hearings and wins assurance of cooperation from the public service commission chairman Fred S Hunt. Hunt proposes a budget cut totaling 155000, with 135000 cut from general fund appropriations and a further 20000 trimmed as the commission retools its financing. The changes include moving the securities division to the banking department and placing transport inspection under a new state bureau. Heil discusses truck law changes and a port of entry plan to require registration and prepayment of highway costs. He vows to run departments like a private business and press for a lean, balanced year with cooperation from a forthcoming legislature.
