report. 1t is believed that the
issue OF the present effort will depend
very largely upon the bondsmen of State
Treasurer Atkins II they are Will
ing to assume the risk Of the
next General Assembly adopting
the report the state treasurer will most
likely honor the claims aud not compel
the states creditors to wait two years
