Franklin BOOST LOUI8BURO The County, The$tate, The Union A. F. JOHNSON, Editor and Uaugtr VOIiUMN LXIL SUBSCRIPTION 91JSO Per Y< (EMU* PAGM) HBMm m LOCBBURG, N. CAROLINA, FRIDAY, JANUARY 1, 1?82 STATE HAKES BUDGET CUTS AFFECTING NEARLY ALE DE PARTMENTS Governor Gardner and Budget Com mission Endeavoring To Wipe Out Deficit ? First Quarter* Cat To 80 Per Cent, Next Two Cat to 60 Per Cent to Make Average of 70 Per Cent of Total Appropria tions. While Governor 0. Max Gardner and Henry Burke, his chief budget cfficer, were in New York explaining the 8tat?'s new economies and ef torts to balance the budget to the State's New York bankers, allotments carrying those economies into effect and a memorandum explaining them were received In the mall yesterday by all State departments and Institu tion!. The memorandum states that the budget has been revised so as to al* iow institutions and departments a maximum of 70 per cent of the legis lative appropriations for the fiscal >ear beginning July 1, 1931 and end ing June 30, 1932. _ The memorandum also states that it i'as already been ascertained that It will be impossible for the State which has already borrowed $3,800,000 for ' 'iiis fiscal year, in addition to funding the $2,300,000 deficit carried over from Inst year, to borrow more money. Since the allotments for the first Iwo quarters of the fisca) year have uiready been made and expended on the basis of 80 per cent of the ap propriation (the same basis used for the much larger appropriations for last year) it will be Meessary for ex penditures for (he two remaining Quarters to be held to 60 per cent of appropriations if the expenditures are held within the 70 per cent set n* a maximum by the Budget Bureau. In the allotments given blow wide variations will )>e noted, some of the small departments, notably the of i'.ce of the Executive Counsel, being alloted even more than the legislative appropriation, while others are re duced even more than their propor tionate part gone Figures Misleading. Departments and institutions op erated upon a year-round basis with uo receipts ot their own should spend as much in one quarter as In another. However, departments with receipts end some of the institutions, particu larly the educational ones, are high ly seasonal In their operations, the figures for no quarter giving a fair picture of the whole year.

The town of Panshanbslen, on the Chinese branch line connecting Ylngkow and ; Kowpangtse fell today to the Japanese force which yesterday captured Tawa.

I "last Stronghold Chlnchow, last stronghold of the Chinese In Manchuria Is held by Mar shal Chang Hsueh-Llang with an army which the Japanese hare estimated at 84,000 men.

Chlnchow Is Important In that it Is | situated on a narrow atrip af coast line and controls the oiity railroad] linking China and Manchuria,- thusl berrlng China as the entrance to that | vast province. A number of foreign military ob server* are there and their reports, IncluMing one recently from the American military attache at Pelplng said Chang was playing a passive game, bringing no reinforcements up from the south.
