The Movement For Budgetary Reform In The States Scholars Choice Edition PDF Download

Excerpt from The Movement for Budgetary Reform in the States In our volume on The Problem of a National Budget, the attempt was made to do three things: to present an analysis of the problem of a budget; to trace the history of the movement for budgetary reform in the national government; and to point out certain steps which it is believed should be taken by that government with a view to the introduction of a budgetary sys tem as the basis for the administration Of its financial affairs. The present volume has for its purpose to do a somewhat similar work for the state governments. In view of the fact that the problem of a budget has been subjected to detailed analysis in the volume relating to the national government, it is unnecessary to attempt such a work here. The problem is substantially the same in both the national and state governments. Differences exist only in respect to the conditions to be met. These differ ences will be considered in the introductory chapter of the present volume. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
