legislation be enacted to the end. that
the expenses of all the State depart
ments and Institutions be paid direct from
the State treasury to those to whom it
is due.
by mutual agreement between the State
auditor. heads of departments, instftu-
lions and their trustees in the last two
years, six more are having their ex-
penses paid direct from the treasury.
which were formerly paid in lump sums
to the several departments and institu-
tons and then paid out by them.
Nearly all are now established on this
plan, having their expenses paid direct
from the treasury after vouchers are
audited and approved and warrants;
drawn for the same.
The principal exceptions being the
Maine Insane hospital and the Eastern
Maine Insane hospital. These have rem
dered statements the first of each month
showing the amount of cash on hand. bills
receivable and payable, thus enabling
the auditor to determine the necessary
amount monthly required by these insti-
tutions TO pay their preceding month
bills. The vouchers actually paid how
ever were not received by the auditor
until several months later, and Is unsat-
sfactory.
would also respectfully recommend
that law be enacted to prohibit any
head of d department or a State institu-
ton, who draws an annual salary for
his services from the State. from drawing
any additional salary or per diem, to be
paid by the state. when serving on any
board or commission for the State: thus
avoiding payment by the State of a
double salary for one mans services.
