HE following pages present individual summaries on the several Tstates and territories. Included are listings of certain of the execu tive offitials; the Chief Justices of the Supreme Courts; officers of the legislatures; and members of the Commissions on Interstate Coopcr- ationVj Each page concludes with a brief set of statistics for the state concerned. . Figullres on general revenue and expenditures were, furnished in most cases by the United States Bureau of the Census, which coordinates data from states to compensate for variations in terminology and record \, t^- procedures, thus rendering the figures more nearly comparable. Like- vvise," Census Bureau figures of state populations are used. Most of the data on the following pages, however, was provided directly by agencies of the states themselves. Rosters of administrative officials classified by functions and a directory of state legislators follow these state and territorial pages. .
