These levies, passed as temporary measures, later were made permanent. The state from then on began to throw off the outward effects of the depression.

Bedaeetf Debt One of the most remarkable things about the depression and Virginia finances was that the commonwealth not only escaped any Increase in Its debt but actually reduced It. In 1930 when Governor Pollard took office the public debt amounted to today it is a decrease of $3,467,078. When the assets of the sinking fund, totaling $4,654,500, are taken into consideration, the debt looks even more insignificant with a net of only $14,861,500. Virginia might also point out that in refunding issues the state benefited in lower interest rates to the extent of about $175,000 a year.

In addition, there was $373,414 in authorized appropriations wtiich were not expended. Governor Peery stepped into the executive mansion at this critical stage, and, to carry on the balanced budget tradition and at the same time 3et more money for schools, proposed a $1,000,000 tax progTam.
