STATES ACCOUNTANT
WILL DIRECT FUNDS
Auditor Must Pay Rural Credits
Warrants on His Approval,
Court Rules.

Pierre. S. D., Sept. 3.-The supreme
Iourt rules that the executive ccoun
ant, and not the state auditor, is the
officer charged with approval If the ex-
penditures OF the money of the rural
credits board. Some little time ago suit
was brought to test the constitution
atty OF the rural credits law, and the
supreme court completely upheld the
measure. Lately the rural credits board
sought to have a warrant for $4,000 is
sued out or the rural credits fund, and
the state auditor refused SO to do, on
two contentious. until he had a court
ruling to order him to do SO. His first
contention was that the law itself did
not dirct the state auditor to authorize
expenditures from the rural credits
fund; and his second contention was
that il he did so, he must have an item
lied statement filed with him for such
expenditure.
To the first contention, the court
said: The first objection is in our opin-
ion trivial. 1t Is true that the appro-
priation contains no express direction
to the state auditor to issue warrants
neither do nan Of the appropriations
contained in ia specific acts,-chap-
tiers 4 to III ~nciusive-nor the ppro-
priation acts of other sessions. 1t is IN
necessary for each appropriation act
to direct the state auditor to issue a
WARRANT lot tHe Appropriation. nat Is
taken care of by section II OF the po-
litical code. which prescripes h a all
accounts and claims against the state
shall be by law directed to be paid out
Of the state treasury shall be paid upon
the warrant of the state auditor"
To the auditors second contention
the court says In part: There is more
force in the second contention, but in
view OF the various provisions OF the
rural credits act we are of the opinion
that that it was the intention of the
legislature, under the broad powers
given to the rural credits board to ex-
cept this appropriation from the re-
q%uirements of code No. 76, and that,
it was the intention to place the whole
sun OF 5000, 900 at the disposal Of the
rural credits board to be disbursed ac-
cording to the judgment of it's MEM
bers." The board filed with the auditor
al itemized statement of the minutes
of the board asking for the warrant of
$4,000. and this the court holds, was
sufficient in the way of an itemized
statement.
The provisions Of the act state that
the executive accountant shall audit
and check the expenditures Of the rural
credits board. and the court say in
part of these provisions: I'VE think
that it is the clear intention of the
tn substitute the executive
accountant for the state auditor as
auditing officer OF the boards accounts,
and it is the duty of the state auditor
to issue warrants on the state treasury
for such sum as may be called for by
the board out of such appropriation
upon presentation of vouchers by the
treasurer of the board, accompanied by
n certified copy of the minutes OF the
board showing such Judgment"

WOULD EXEMPT FARMERS

right Of way in the harvest" is the
slogan that T. w. Peterson, q member
OF h local exemption board, is attemp-
ting to promulgate oy6 the state by
word Of mouth. by letter and otherwise.
"Threshing outfits should work for
drafted farmers before the Others"
says Mi. Peterson, and II fact, we
should make every effort to finish this
years phenomenal harvest before the
drafted men are taken from us"
1T Is, OF course, not within the PROV
ince Of the local board to grant exemp-
ton to registrants until the harvest is
finished" continued Mr.. Peterson.
but the farmers should be exempted
until December 1. Neighbors should
get together and work in harmony in
an effort to gather the harvest. They
should get up old fashioned husking
bees n help the registrants out so
that every South Dakota man will be
able to put his crop in marketable
shape before he leaves to go some
where in France perhaps never to re-
turn. We cannot do too much for these
