universIty vms In effect an obligation of the tate pure and simple and It was held In that case that such act was In direct conflict with the provi dons of Section 1 of Artimile it of the Constitution In that the indebtedness which would be created under the provisions of said act would be In excess or the borrowing capacity of the state lho state armory boird Is a state Insttuton und I would seem that undel the rule which was laid down In the case above cited the obhiga ton which will bo created providing the provisions or this act arc carried out will be an obligation of time state alhou It Is not so expressly provld cd I the act the unlversl case so In this ealothls obligation could be met only bY appropriation made hI the legislature In act the oct itself there Is provided fOr an annual appro prIaton of 0000 out ot the moneys of the state treasury for the purpose oC paying Interest on any sum hor rowed by the state armory board for the crerton of armories I Is my opInIon therefore that this loan It made Will be a loan to the state which wi be all IndebtedncBs of the state But further while It would ho an I Indebtedness or the state it could not In my opinion be
