Summaries Of October Reports Of the
Departments TO the Board Of Control

of the sum available July l, 1919 o.
100000, leaving balance of $685.
1887 to take care of the expenses
of the remaining eight months of
the year. 1t is true that during the
first four months of the year that
justice has been very active, the
courts have been very busy trying
important cases and the expenses
have been heavy; whether or not
this will continue remains to be
seen and if it does the appropriation
will not be sufficient. l shall issue
statement as to the condition of
this appropriation and forward
copy of the same to each of the Su-
perfor Judges and Justices of the
Supreme Court calling their atten-
ton to the probability of shortage
of this fund.
I further call your attention to tho
appropriation provided for the ex-
penses OF my own office, the report
will show you that more than hal
OF the appropriation has been spent
during the first four months. No
one could contemplate the addition
al expense that this office would be
to because of the new system which
went into effect July first. We hay
necessarily had to provide ourselves
with new equipment and to employ
TWO extra clerks in order to kee
up the work and even with this eX
ira help and new equipment it keeps
the Office force very busy all of tn
time to keep the work in hand and
ut oil -
many things touching the eflicienc,
OF the Office and effecting improve
lnents. regret 20 say that TIE
are many things that l would liz
to DO that / am unable to accom-
push because of the lack Of time an
assistance.
The commissioner Of Taxes has
5pent $6,220.16 of his $4,000 90 -.
preparation which indicates that his
department will run short of fp1Ge
before the ed of the year. Fam.
nation of the report will show that
the Engineers department is in tha
anne situation.
regret to report that the G
Hospltai for the Insane has spent
nearly half Of its appropriations j.
