WHEREAS, the sum of $1891.00 was incurred as a State obligation during the month of June, 1962, for substitute pay for 1 nurse and 45 school teachers in the Wilmington School District; and
WHEREAS, the amount involved as a practical matter could not be presented to State Agencies for payment prior to the expiration of the fiscal year; and
