LEGAL ADVISER OF
GOVERNOR STARTS
AUDIT OF COUNTY
BOND TRANSACTIONS
SUITS LIKELY TO BE INAUGURAL.
ED TO RECOVER ALLEGED Elk
CESS PAYMENTS WHICH MAY
REACH $4,000

An audit of the states transactions
in connection with Series &C" bonds
authorized by the Enabling Act to pro
vide for the payment of bonds AMI
accrued interest thereon Of Grant and
Santa Fe counties, has been started
by R. G. Reid, legal adviser to Gov
ernor Lindsey. 1t is in connection
with these transactions that Mr.. Reid
alleges overpayments have been
made by the state, estimates of the
amount of such overpayment ranging
from $1,000 900 to $150,000.
In a statement made to Governor
Lindsey Mr.. Reid says that at is pos
sible that there has been an excess
payment Of many thousand dollars.
and after this audit, If such difference
is found to exist, / recommend that
the attorney general be authorized to
take the necessary action properly to
protect the states interest in the mat
ter"
Steps properly to protect the
states interest" would consist, prob
ably, i'm suits to recover excess pay
ments made to b~ondholders, and pos
sibly suits on the bonds of state off
GERS who permitted the payments to
be made.
The First state legislature, in 1912,
enacted the necessary legislation for
the issuance of Series &C" bonds, as
provided in the Enabling Act, and on
March /, 1913, the state was ready to
refund the bonds. Mr.. Reid holds,
therefore, that no interest on any OF
the bonds beyond that date should
have been paid, and that the payment
Of interest on interest was not legal.
The alleged excess payments consist
Of interest for periods beyond March
l, 1913; interest on interest duplica-
tions, and redemption of coupons
which we're not portions of the bonds
ordered refunded.
No transactions in connection with
&c" bonds have been carried
On since early in Governor Lindsey's
administration, when four bonds were
presented to him for his signature.
Of signing the bonds the gov
srnor asked his legal adviser to make

ion has resulted in the present plans

PLACID on the amount to be loaned
TO individuals as may be deemed
necessary. On the other hand, 1t
should be a regulation that any loans
applied for in amounts exceeding
this maximum a be made on q spe-
cial endorsement OF the disbursing
agent with and by the advice Of the
governor.
1t Is further recommended, as Is
provided by the above recommends
tions, that absolutely no money shall
be furnished directly to any applicant
and seed and provender only through
the agency above indicated. w
It Is further recommended that an
investigation should be made as soon
as possible by the disbursing agent as
to the reliability and qualifications
OF the finance committee of each
county and such report shall be sub
mitted, one to the governor with a
copy Of same to the council of de-
tense.
in explanation of the above plan, it
is stated that If the state becomes
the owner OF the seed and provender
stored In the various counties by and
under purchase from the Wholesale
Grocers' association that then and in
that case the finance committee Of
the county shall forward the papers
in the case directly to the disbursing
agent at Santa Fe, but II such ar
rangements be made with the Whole
sale Grocers' association that they
carry the seed for the account of the
state with such agent in each county,
then the procedure outlined above
shall apply.

In addition to this acreage and the
ready response, the most encouraging
feature Of the results of the planting
campaign on state lands has been the
tendency to follow the advice of the
State Agricultural college authorities

shown by the preponderance in the
acreage of. beans, corn, sorghums and
potatoes. These four r recommend
ed by the college as the most reliable
crops for New Mexico foodcrisis
farmers and were especially recon-.
mended by the land commissioner i'll
issuing his permit to farm the grazing

duction per acre, the state grazing
land now planted to beans alone
