State Treasurer Kenehan esti-
mates that the income for the per-
iod will be a little over two and
one half million, which will leave
a shortage of almost two million
dollars
Mr.. Kenehan estimates that not
more than so per cent of the third
class will be paid and none of the
fourth and fifth classes.
The first difficulty in which the
state finds itself as result of
these over-appropriations arose
during the past week when the
federal government notified the
state board of stock inspection
commissioners that it would not
furnish stock inspectors for Colo
RADIO unless Colorado furnished an
equal number with the government.
The appropriation for these in
spectors is in the fourth class and
cannot be reached unless trans
ferred to the first class. where
II does not belong. The govern
ment officials say that If they
withdraw their inspectors. all Col
orado stock will have to be quar-
antined and dipped before being
shipped out of the state.
II Is well to know that the
item under the heading First
Glass means payroll and inciden-
tai expenses of employees. This
item is u little over twice as large
as the same item under Governor
Buchtel, three years ago. Had
Governor Shafroth not doubled
his payroll many of the appropria-
tons that are really needed could
be paid.
Last week Secretary Patek of
the Immigration Board was com
PEELED to notify all the counties
that there would probably be very
little available cash for the board

The fact that State Oil Inspec-
tor Claude Street is maintaining

paid last year even though the

is causing no end of comment in
political circles. The position has
always been on a commission basis.
and paid from six to nine thous-
and dollars a year. The last legis-
lature amended the law to $1,000
year and provided that the rest
of the fund should be turned into
the general incidental account. The
senate failed to confirm Mr..
Streets reappointment by Cover
nor Shafroth and now Street takes
the position that he is holding
over and Is entitled to the salary
under which he was first appoint
ed. The law previously provided
that the oil inspector should keep
all the fees. Mr.. Street is contin-
uing in this practice. He appar-
emily has the support of Governor
Shafroth in his claim for the old
salary. Attorneys say that il Gov
ernor Shafroth wanted to save to
the state the difference between the
commission and the legal salary
all he need do would be to dis
charge the oil inspector and then
reappoint him under the new law.

cipal leaders in the reform move

Wash That Itch Away.

1t is said there are certain springs
in Europe that give relief and cure
to Eczema and other skin diseases.
If you knew that by washing in these
waters you could be relieved from
that awful itch, wouldn't you make
every effort to take a trip to Europe
at once. Would you not be willing
TO spend your last cent to find the
cure?
But you need not leave home for
these distant springs. Relief is right
here in your own home town!
A simple wash of Oil of Winter
green, Thymol and other ingredients
as compounded in D. D. D. Prescrfp-
ton Will bring instant relief to that
terrible burning itch, and leave the
skin as smooth and healthy as that
of a child.
Best possible wash for pimples and
all skin impurities.
If you have not already tried it,
get at least a % cent bottle today.
We assure you Of instant relief.
