The increase boosts state general fund spending for the two-year period that ends on June 30, 1967, to about $97.3 million. Despite the record-high spending pace, the massive money program received additional frosting here Saturday without any new taxes being imposed.

Indeed, all indications are that the state may end the fis- ation before 1969, however. The House accepted the Senate cutback in funds with the thought of putting the $100,000 back into the program during the 1967 session to help financi what is expected to be an accelerating educational program. Also passed, with a Senate amendment, was the measure that permits the motor vehicle commissioner to require some drivers to attend driver retrain-ing programs.

The Senate cut the House appropriation back to $175,000 (the House wanted to spend $275,000) for the program that must go into operation in schools in 1969.

But that figure was reduced when the Legislature repealed the bond retirement fund and freed $570,000 from that fund for general fund use. In addition, many of the major spending measures carried their individual appropriations.
