Senate approves budget amid amendments to school grants
The Senate passed the 700 million biennial state budget after defeating two McCue amendments to the $30 million Battle school construction grants. One would require local matching funds, the other ties a $4 or $5 million equalization fund to local school spending. The bill returns to the House for concurrence as Senate additions add about $1.6 million. The major change cut $350,000 from welfare, while mental hospital funding is boosted by nearly $1 million and includes patient revenue sharing. Also approved were administration bills replacing the Public Utilities Labor Relations Act and measures tightening unlawful picketing and restricting convict-made bricks to state institutions.
