ReveIIe RevIIes Experts, Report.

nSNCHC nSNiiSS EAPCTto ncpVTbs
Charles G. Revelle, commissioner
Of insurance, gave out a public crit
icism in reply to the reports Of the
experts who have been investigating
the management of his office.
Revelle's statement is a bitter ar
raignment of the auditors and their
methods. He frequently refers to
the chief auditor as a foreigner"
and in one place after denouncing
the auditors report he says:
This statement is typical Of the
narrowness, short-sightedness and ig-
norance of the foreigner who made
the investigation, Such a mar can
not dictate my policies nor determine
how l shall officially spend the public
funds placed by law at my disposal"
Revelle denies the charge of the
auditors that he had collected and re-
tanned fees to which he was not en-
titled.
"This report alleges that I person
ally received and kept the sum Of
$1,335.39 as fees for making valua-
lions and examinations Of companies.
The examiner was informed of the
absolute falsity of this statement be-
fore he embodied it in his report"
Revelle's statement is viewed with
great satisfaction by the Republicans
who fought for a nonpartisan investi-
eating committee in the house, but
were defeated by friends Of Revelle
and other state officials who used all
their influence to have committee con
sist of three Democrats and two Re
publicans, appointed by the Demo
cratic speaker.
