MAKE LEGAL FIGHT
Reported They Will Contest West Bill
Limiting Amounts They May
Retain,

That the fee officers of the State will
wage war against the West bill re-
auiring them to turn over to the State
! all fees collected in excess of stipulated
sums for salaries and expenses. and
in view of the recent ruling of the
Supreme Court of Appeals In the case
of w. II. Sands against State Auditor
c, Lee Moore. be successful, was the
opinion yesterday. Such result would
mean a refund of the excess. fees that
have been received by the State au-
ditor, and deprive the State and coun-
ties of a large amount of revenue.
The West law requires that all sher-
iHs examiners of records, commits
siouers of the revenue. court clerks
and all fee officers. turn over to the
state all fees collected in excess Of
a certain amount for salaries and ex-
penses This law became operative on
January /, 1916. and since January /
OF this year returns amounting to a
considerable figure have been received
by the State auditor.
Question Laws Validity.
Some of the fee officers, however.
question the NallultN Oh the law, and
are preparing to night il in the courts
1t is understood that their claim will
be that their salaries cannot be
changed while they are serving a term
in office, and since the West law does
this, is it unconstitutional.
The cases will be somewhat similar
TO that of William II. Sands, examiner
of records for Richmond against G.
Lee Moore. State auditor. and which
was decided by the Supreme Court in
favor of Sands. The local examiner
contended that the Law was unconsti-
.tutional in that the provisions of the
law were not stated IN the title, and
that il was unconstitutional il IL leg
islated the right to the State to change
his salary while he was in office.
In this case Examiner Sands request
ed that the State auditor pay him So
1877 covering commissions and ex-
pcnses in reporting personal properties
for taxation. Under the West law
passed in 1914 il provided that no ex
penses for examiners of records should
be paid in excess of those allowed for
1918. Accordingly the State auditor
took the expenses of Examiner Sands
for 1918. WHICH amounted to around
So 500. and added his commissions for
the properties reported
Entitled to balance. 80
This totaied Si.eS9.30. which amount
the state auditor claimed was all he
was entitled to, and MI Sands was
accordingly paid. The examiner. how
ever. declared that he vas entitled TO
the amount as stated by him. and he
entered suit TO recover the difference.
s73q3S. The matter came to the SUI
preme Court. which decided that the
salary of Mr. Sands could not be
changed during his tenure in office.
and stating that he was entitled to
the balance Of his claim.
This decision of the Sue Court
is the one on which the fee officers
expect to win their case II Is kno" m
that they are preparing action. which
is likely TO rnaterialize III short time
