LIMITED FINANCE

“It was obvious, if this pro- vince was to keep abreast of developments elsewhere, that a beginning had be made, with full consideratioi of our limited financial resources, towards a more rapid program of educat- jfonal advancement. It was ap parent to all of us that additional expenditures would be required, both at the government and the achool district levels. Increased appropriations from year to year have been made by this Legis- lature and by the local school districts. -

“The public accounts for the fiscal year ending March 31 1954. show that the total curre expenditure by the goverament en, education was $1,172,747 as compared with our estimate for the present year of $1,725.662 an increase of $552,915. Likewise, the district expenditure increas-
