CUNEO’S ANSWER
McMahon Wants t 0
Know Where Board
Stands in the Matter
—0ther Budgets
William II. McMahon of‘the Board
of Estimate and Taxation, raised a
question last evening as to the right
of the Board of Education to ap-
prove its own budget.
When the school budget was
brought to the attention of the board
some members put on their hats and
started to go home. as the other bud-
gets had been heard. but lilr. McMa-
hon raised the point by saying he
thought it was time that the board
knew where it stood on this ques-
tion.
The school budget calls for an ap-
propriation of $397,331.04 and, ac-
cording to the. special net passed by
the Legislature. the board has no
right to alter this TTT any way.
lATwyenT' Opinion Dlflcr.
Mr. McMahon said:
"Several lawyers seem to differ on
this matter of the school budget and
it is time we found out where we

meeting stated the general act passed
by the Legislature overruled the spe-
cial act. approved several years ago.
giving the School Board control over
its budget. 1 think that we should
have an opinion on this matter from
the Attorney General of the State."
lllark ll. Henderson suggested that
an opinion be rendered by Corpora-
tion Counsel John J. Cunco.
Corporation Counsel Cuneo
plied:
“I will give. (1 written opinion on
the matter if you gentlemen so de-
sire, I have written to the Attor-
ney General about it and have rc~
ceived no answer. We can't compel
him to rule on the matter. 1 have
seen an opinion from the State
liourd of Education to the. effect that
(be general act does not conflict with
the special act."
Mr. McMahon argued that by the

quired to submit its budgets it) the
