244 THE FISCAL PROBLEM IN MISSOURI sources, the interest on the school fund certificates is the most important, and the remainder consists of miscellaneous amounts. The total for each year agrees with the total for the same year in Table 77, and the two tables present a complete picture of the expenditures from the state school monevs fund as well as the sources of the credits to the fund. Total State Aid Distributions for Maintenance of Public Schools In order that total state aid apportionments for public school purposes may be compared with maintenance ex- penditures for all state functions, it is necessary to present the data on a state fiscal year basis. Table 79 shows the total maintenance expenditures of the state and the total appor- tionments for public school purposes for the years 1924 to 1928, inclusive. The amounts shown for school apportion- ments include the distribution of the moneys in the county insurance tax fund!, which are apportioned in October of each year, and other allotments resulting from direct appro- priations. Apportionments from the state school moneys fund are included in the total, but, since the data are for the years ending December 31, they are not directly comparable with those in Table 77.
