The Texas attorney general states that the state must reach a cash basis, debt-free posture by January 1, 1945 under a constitutional amendment. The plan uses interest bearing bonds to wipe the general fund deficit, with expectations deficits drop from 26 million to about 20 million by 1945, contingent on next biennium spending. Legislation may threaten the people’s mandate by allowing high expenditures, but public sentiment favors economy and sound administration.
