Chap. 145.—An ACT to appropriate the sum of $1,200, or so much thereof
as may be necessary, out of funds not otherwise appropriated, to pro-
vide for additional clerical and stenographic services in the office of
the attorney general. (S. B. 119)

Approved March 18, 1915.

Whereas, the putting into operation of the new tax system will
greatly increase the work of the attorney general’s office; and

Whereas, under the present law only one stenographer is furnished
said office for the joint use of the attorney general and the assistant
attorney general; and

Whereas, the proper dispatch of public business requires additional
stenographic and clerical service in said office, now, therefore,

1. Be it enacted by the general assembly of Virginia, That the sum
of twelve hundred dollars, or so much thereof as may be necessary, is
hereby appropriated out of the funds in the treasury not otherwise
appropriated for the fiscal year beginning March first, nineteen hundred
and fifteen, which said sum may be used in connection with the sums
already appropriated for use in said office for the purpose of employing
such stenographic and clerical aid as the attorney general may deem
necessary for the proper conduct of his office.

2. As the services of an additional stenographer are needed at once,
an emergency is declared to exist, and this act shall be in force from
its passage.
