ECKINGER HAS
BILLS CUT DOWN
FOR SECOND TIME
Agrees. 10 Take $400 of S1,S00
and Submit 10 Court
Test

Coroner Jacob Eckinger. surcharged
early this year by County Controller
Henry W. Cough, for amounts total
ing s2.142, presented bills for more
than $500 to-day to the county COM
missioners. These are the first he
has filed since November. 1917.
The commissioners decided to pay
Coroner Eckinger $500, with the un-
derstanding that settlement of the
surcharges made against amounts he
collected prior to this year should
be settled by court decision on a ca
stated.
When Controller Cough issued his
1917 report he included two charges
against the coroner, one for about
$500, which he claimed the coroner
received during the last few years in
witness fees of 25 cents each, to which
he was not entitled; and the second
account for approximately $1,400,
made up of charges of s1.37 made
by Coroner Eckinger for reporting
Investigations.
IN the Dllls Tor tnls year coroner
Eckinger has included again the lat
ter charges for reporting investiga-
tions. In paying him $400 the county
commissioners did so, they said. with
the agreement that Coroner Ecking-
er will pay back the amounts he has
been surcharged last year should 1t
be decided by the court that he was
not entitled to the money. The fees
also would be deducted from his
bills for 1918 when final settlement
is made for the year

Food Administration to
Continue Local Work
For Next Six Months

The activities of the Dauphin
county food administration likely
will continue six months longer at
the least, according to word receiv-
ed from Herbert Hoover at the Of
flee of the food administrator this
morning. For some time it has been
the common opinion that the food
administration would be disbanded
the first of the new year.
The information is contained in
a message from Howard Heinz,
state food administrator, which
says:
Mr.. Hoover cables Christmas
greetings to all county food admin
istrators and advises that no one on
the other side can but appreciate the
great contribution toward the win
ming of the war which the perfect
team work and devotion of the food
administrations have made possible.
Europe will be another six months
in recovering from its main food
difficulties, and thus some task yet
remains before us.
