There Is only one thing in the state
Of Idaho that can make me pay that
claim" said State Auditor Van Densen,
land that is an order from the SUI
preme court"
Originally there were two claims
presented to the state auditor, one by
Mrs. William Stockslager for 5000 and
the other by Katherine Griffith for the
same amount. Both were attaches to
the last house of representatives. They
performed clerical work after the loS-
lslature adjourned. II is for this work
they base their claims.
SNI ~ = roobGnf.
The legislature adjourned March of
the present year. On March 81, these
two attaches presented their respect
I've claims for 5000 each. The order for
their payment was Issued by Harvey
Alfred, then speaker of the house.
State Auditor Van Deusen refused to
draw a warrant for the amounts asked.
Across the order from the speaker,
when 1t was presented and filed with
him, State Auditor Van Deusen wrote
the following: This claim Is pure rob
berry and | refuse to pay it." He has
persistcntly refused to draw a warrant
for the amount asked. Later the claims
were revised and that OF Katherine

manner and that 1t was a scandal. He
asserts that he has me funds to draw
upon to meet the claims but he Ia not
going to draw a warrant for an amount
Of money he believes to be unreason-
able and out of proportion to the work
performed.
Payment of the claim of Mrs. Stock

Especial to the Telegram.)

Tallahassee, Fla, March IA
genuine stir was caused in Official
circles here this morning when Gov
ernor Cats gave to your correspond
ent what may be regarded as q SEN
sational signed statement in which
he declares vacant the offices of the
three members Of the State Board
|of Eclectic Medical Examiners, Drs.
Gee. l.. Dickerson, Jacksonville;
Frank E. Gavals, Lakeworth, and V.
X. Gendra, Tampa. In the state
ment the Governor declares that 1t
has come to his knowledge that
these men have been giving fake
doctors diplomas and licenses from
extinct and dead colleges for the
Sums from $500 to $500" He fur
ther says that these fake doctors
to whom were issued false license
and diplomas have practiced in sew
eral communities In Florida and
have caused the death of some two
or three people by their malpractice
and lack of knowledge ofmedicine.
The Governor says: This sad and
fearful condition was brought out by
suit of d.. Grady Burton, or Ar
cadia, against DIR. Gendra, of Tampa.
causing the latter to forfeit cash
bond of 5000 and become fugitive
frt m Justice !" Cats calls upon all
good citizens to report any doctors
holding false certificates to the states
attorneys.
Last Tuesday Governor Cats had
the Board of Examiners of Trained
Nurses in Tallahassee before him to
explain certain charges. and his
friends here say that he probably
knows more about the Beard of
Health and its operations than he
has stated thus far.
