OIL INSPECTOR
PROBE MAY
BE MADE
ATTORNEY GENERAL HOLDS THAT
POSITION IS PUBLIC OFFICE AND
HENCE INVESTIGATION IS PER.
FECTLY PROPER.
FUNDS cLt0NGED TO
OFFICIAL HOWEVER
The investigation into the Office

The investigation into the Office
of the territorial coal oil inspector /:
perfectly proper according to an Opin
ion rendered by Attorney General
Frank W. Clancy this morning, but
the attorney general holds that under
the act creating the office, the monies
60 collected for the inspection of oil
etc, properly belong to the inspector
and do not revert to any fund.
The opinion is addressed to "Hon.
W. H. H. Llewellyn, chairman Of spe.
cial committee, house of representa-
t;ves, Santa Fe, n. NJ 1t is in reply
to letter from the chairman, asking
for an opinion as to the office in ques-
ton and the disposition Of the funds
collected under the old territorial coal
oil act.
The opinion of the attorney general,
| i is generally conceded, leaves the
committee ample room to continue the
| investigation into each and every
branch of the coal oil inspecting busi-
ress. But SO far as the use Of the
funds are concerned, the opinion
ould indicate that the attorney gen.
cral believed the coal oil inspector
vas the only person accountable for
them and that they were the emolu-
eny department of state government,
other than the governor, to whom he
was required to return a report.
The opinion of the attorney general
| l., as follows:
Santa Fe, N. NJ, Feb. 81, 1913

wherefore you ask, on behalf of the

in writing as to the Office of coal oi,
Inspector and, more particularly,
whether the funds collected by the
