It's wonderful thing, this thing Of
living on an expense account, especial
ly if the state is paying the bill.
That, at Leaf, must be the con-
clusion drawn from perusal OF the
records in the office of State Auditor
kositzky. especially as they relate to
the manner in which the North Dako-
Ia Council OF Defense so quickly dis
posed of the $4,000 appropriated for
it by the state legislature; the $500
additional apportioned to it from the
state emergency fund, and the 100000
collected by the council in additional
fees from the exhibition of war
films.
For instance, the state pays for
shaves of members Of the council OF
defense; it pays. full time for Sunday
service, and little thing like $3.50
worth Of food in one day for one Of
