1t was nsedful that he should work

under the surface current of the hurry

Lansing.

The boyle men OF the budget COM
mission have their plans all laid to
swoop down on every state department
after September l and investigate its
system OF spending money.
For years expense accounts OF en-
ployes who are kept on the road has
been one of the sticking points for
the state officials. When 1t is remem-
bered that each circuit Judge who
travels has to have his expense &C.
count audited by the state board OF
auditors, and when II Is noted hat the
same board with the same set of rules
also gets the account Of the man who
goes out to examine sheep. the range
of expenses can easily be seen. Ger
tain fixed expenses for each day, for
hotels, meals. etc, have been in vogue
for years, and they have always caused
a kick.
Some of the state departments in.
sist that their representatives have
to go to the best hotels to make a
front" Then again certain depart
ments. whose expenses are directly
paid from fees have insisted that in
asmuch as they got the money why
shouldn't they spend 1t as they pleased
without the o. X. OF the state board
Of auditors?
Then there Is the proposition of the
department that gets an annual appro-
priation to carry on its work and is
certainly entitled to spend up that
amount of money. One noticeable ex'
ample OF this Is the attorney general
department.
The present encouragement almost

other departments was over, Mr..
Groesbeck was not very welcome
visitor. He was clearly within his ap-
preparation. but at the same time he
ran foul of other departments not run
on a straight appropriation basis.
These are Just few samples of the
tables which the budget commission
will have to straighten out.

that his sudden bound upward from
the laboring ranks to the executive
headship Of the irrigation project had
merely made him a more conspicuous
target for the man-hunters, Smith
scanted himself of sleep and redoubled
his efforts to put the new company on
