Expenditure of approximately ft million dollars within the coming two years for permanent improvements was suggested by state fair officials at the close of the most successful Illinois exposition in its history.

Approximately 387,000 persons attended the exposition this year as compared with 337,000 in 1927, an increase of 50,000.
