This is an increase of $2540,930 over the cash excess. at the end of the preceding month and more than double the excess of 046,277,112 on September 30 a year ago. General fund revenues deposited in the state treasury during the first hree months of the present fiscal year totaled $65,514,247 an increage of $7,033,246 or 12.03 per cent over the same period last year. : General fund expenditures during the first three months of the present fiscal year, as announced by Riley, ‘totaled $50,695,116,—an increase of $24,186,279 over the corresponding period last year. The major portion of this increase, however, said Riley was caused by the transfer to the highway fund of $13,500,000 appropriated by 1943 legislation for surveys and rights of way for post war highway construction. Another major increase totalling $6,853,369 occurred in the cost of aid to aged.
