Official statutory text
If the department reports to the Governor that a condition of extraordinary unemployment caused by industrial depression does exist within this state, the Department of Finance may apportion the available Emergency Fund among the several state agencies for the extension of the public works of the state under the charge or direction thereof, in the manner which the Department of Finance believes to be best adapted to advance the public interest by providing the maximum of public employment consistent with the most useful, permanent, and economic extension of public works.
