Strong Plea By K U For More Funds
The University of Kansas and K U Medical Center joined Gov elect Docking budget hearings urging higher funding for state schools. Docking backs freezing medical payments to relief clients and seeks a $300,000 deficiency appropriation while proposing a $3 federal monthly increase in medical payments to welfare recipients. The welfare board reports average assistance now about $71 per month and an annual budget near $46 million, later trimmed to about $38.6 million by the budget division. The revenue and taxation commission asks for a deficiency appropriation to finish the current fiscal year with additional operating and moving costs.
