Edison had proposed a total of $40,662,095 for the general appropriation bill, which will finance most state departments for the fiscal year beginning July 1. The teachers' pension allowance, the Appropriations Committee explained, was cut out because the railroad tax fund, from which payments usually are made, was insufficient to cover the item.

The committee, instead, pledged payment to the pension fund from anticipated surplus highway fund bond accounts in 1950. Senator George H. Stanger (R-Cumberland), chairman of the Appropriations Committee and sponsor of the highway and general budget spending bills, said the bill was $2,656,915 below the current general appropriation act.
