Dewey signs Feinberg bill boosting New York school aid
Governor Dewey signs the Feinberg measure raising state education aid from 152 million to 152 million and notes an 80 million increase since 1941. He defends funding against critics, says the rise is unequalled and cites higher teacher pay and broader curricula. The Weinberg bill adds a permanent 56 million yearly increase becoming effective July 2, with earlier emergency and new money. Dewey argues inflation and local costs justify the expansion, predicts further gains in the next fiscal year.
