Dewey budgets seek 400 million for capital construction
Albany reports state departments asked Governor Dewey for 400 million dollars in capital construction for 1953 53 with a 278 million hike over 1951 52. Hagerty says the total reflects needs and a backlog to be spread over four years while actual approvals will be trimmed. Some 375 million would fund new construction including mental hospitals highways and universities, with steel availability a key limiting factor and federal approval likely for hospital projects.
