SCHOOL FUND BALANCES.
Superintendent Worries Explains the Purpose
of Manson q. Johnson's Act.

superintendent of Public instruction
Worries. in speaking of the johnson bill,
which caused unfavorable m by
Deputy Auditor johnson, said yesterday
that the bill, which is now q law, is one of
needed and proper purpose. but admitted
that it is not entirely clear in it's terms.
1T might have teen better worded." said
ne. and should have incorporated, per-
haps. the section of law governing ap-
~portionments. to which it only
refers. But I'm surprised that
Deputy Auditor johnson. who is one of the
best advisers i know of in regard to school
laws and their Interpretation, should have
been puzzled to Know what 1t means. It
means that the unexpected balance on hand
at the close Of the school year must be re-
turned to- the Safe Auditor to be reappor-
toned. The term 'unexpended balance
p~ortionment, which. under the law. must
be expended within the year for which
1t is apportiOned. and hence from
June to the first Monday in July
ticipated. The Supreme Court has affirmed
the plain words of the law in regard TO the
time of availability of these funds. The
purpose of the amendment to the law Is to
compel the school corporations in q num-
Der of places to pay back to thu State large
Gums now lying dormant in the hands of
treasurers of school boards. The money
can't be used because the law requires it
to be used In the year for which 1T
was apportioDed. There was no
way to compel these tressurers to pay il
back to be reapportloned. and year after
year the money has accumulated, giving
the boards it's usufruct at interest. This
was the evil at which the johnson bill was
directed. One phase of the abuse was
that there was always q struggle to be q
member of the school board, and in the
election or @ new superlntend-
emit the successful man would have
to agree not to try to intrencb upon this
fund by proposing new schoolhouses. etc.
The new law reQuIres treasurers to make
report Of the un~expended balances on hand
and the disclosures will be interesting"
1t Is said that the town Of Plymouth. in
Marshall county, has nearly $40 o charged
10 this account. the interest on which does
not benefit the public. Vincennes. Michi-
gan City and numerous other towns are

The position which the Big Four has
taken regarding q division of the psssen-

dividing the business. the Pennsylvania

such division, and that the percentages
should be fixed by the arbitrators. For
some years the percentages of the business
carried were prepared by the commissions

SAVINGS AND LOAN LIENS
Judge Taylor Hands Down a Decision
of Interest TO the Associations.
Mechanics Liens Have Priority. Sellers Wsiv.
ers Noiwithstanding-Woman Driven 10
Theft by BARD Poverty-COurt Notes.

Judge Harper has established o precedent
IN mechanics lien cases which will prove
of interest to mechanics and material men.
The decision was rendered In the case of
Joseph Miller against Halbert and Louis
Jones. The defendants purchased a lot
from l.. b. Swift, Louis Metzger and Albert
Lieber. and gave y mortgage to secure pay
ment of the purchase money. The vendors
waived their natural priority of lien in
favor of the Star Saving and Loan Asso-
citation. from which the defendants were
60 borrow money TO erect q house upon the
lot purchased. They contracted with Joseph
Miller, the plaintiff, for the erection of the
house and he in turn sub-let q portion
OF the contract. The honse was nearly
completed before the Jones brothers
borrowed the money from the association
with which TO pay the contractor. In the
meantime several of the mechanics and
material men had filed their liens upon the
property, and these liens antedated the
loan and lien of the savings association.
The question presented was as to the
priority of lien. The association main
tanned that the lien of the vendors took
priority over other claims, and that as the
vendors had waived their rights In favor of
the association IL was entitled TO tho
priority. Judge Harper held. however.
that inasmuch as the lien of the mechanics
and material men antedated that of the
association this waiver on the part of the
vendors could not operate to its advantage
against the mechanics and material men.
He held that the mechanics and material
mems liens took priority to the
extent of their claim out of the
priority obtained by the association
by the waiver of the vendors; that the
claim of the association. less the amount
paid the mechanics and material men was
next III order of priority; the vendors lien
tions claim was to be paid. There Is no
statute or decision of the Supreme Court
upon this question. which has been pre-
sented several times recently in the lower
courts. and the conclusions of the court are
based upon the elementary principles of
law. 1t remains for the Supreme Court to
finally decide and settle the point. which is
one of vital Importance to building asso-
Citations.
