Appropriations for Salaries are available for the term indicated in each case but not for more than one year from September 1, 1947When appointments are made at salary rates less than the amounts provided in the budget, the unused balance is lapsed at that time, resulting in a reduction in the budget. Funds appropriated for positions in the salary budget which are not yet filled may, pending regular appointments, be drawn against by voucher to the Business Office for services of employees temporarily engaged to do the work contemplated by the position. Such temporary charges may not exceed the amount of time provided by the position unless indicated herein or otherwise approved by the President. All unexpended balances remaining in the salary budget lapse at the close of each calendar month unless previously assigned or encumbered. Such lapses do not result in a reduction in the budget. Departmental appropriations are made under the captions "Salaries," "Wages," and "Expense and Equipment." No transfers may be made between "Salaries" and "Expense and Equipment" except with the approval of the President of the University. Requests for such changes should be submitted to the Comptroller. Adjustments may be requested between "Salaries" and "Wages" and between "Wages" and "Expense and Equipment" upon notice to the Comptroller. Appropriations for Expense and Equipment and for Wages are available for one year beginning July 1, 1947, and ending June 30, 1948. All unexpended balances in Wages appropriations lapse June 30, 1948, and unencumbered balances in Expense and Equipment appropriations lapse on that date.
