will consolidate a number Of state
departments Aug. (the beginning
of the new fiscal year) and thereby
save, he calculates, about $4,000 a
year in salaries, clerk hire and trav-
cling expenses.
The governors plan embodies to a
certain degree some of the features
of the efficiency and economy bill of
1915, and of the series of economy
and efficiency bills of the 1917 ses-
sion.
Abolish Chief Inspector.
His project provides that the chief
oil inspectorship shall be abolished,
and the deputies of this department
report after July 81 to the dairy and
food commissioner, J. J. Farrell. 1t
also provides for the abolition of the
office of hotel inspector, as such, and
would have this work done by dep
uty and would also have the oil in
spectors aid in MOTEL inspection as
called upon for such cooperation.
The $2,4OO salary of the chief oil
inspector, the $1,80O salary of the
hotel inspector and the lesser reduc-
tions brought about by the employ
ment of fewer subordinates and with
a reduction in travelling expenses
form the basis for the governors con-
templated retrenchment.
Fire Marshal to Go.
When r. w. Hargadine's term as
fire marshal expires in August the
governor plans to eliminate the office
and hold the commissioner of insur-
ance responsible for the work of fire
prevention and detection, thus saving
the marshal's salary of $4,000, he
says.
The governor also proposes to have
boiler inspection placed under the
commissioner of insurance.
The abolition of the office of sur
veyor general of logs and lumber, as
the public now knows it, is proposed
by the executive. He would have the
work done by foresters in State For
ester Cox's department and thereby
save such expenses as the office of
surveyor general may be now to the
state.
