Items vetoed threaten Ohio agency funds in 1935 36
Ohio faces a financial crisis as Gov. Davey vetoes about 9 million dollars from the biennial budget and the Supreme Court rules the State Board of Control cannot transfer funds to cover those vetoed items. Departments risk losses for postage, transport, and telephone bills, with Ohio State University unable to buy coal and inmate care at risk. Prosecutions may be postponed without the $150,000 for convict transportation. The governor plans no special session before September.
