Following Wooster Action.

Moved because of the muddle of al
legged misuse of state funds. the state
executive council has placed a ban on
all state house improvements, changes
or alterations except as approved by
the council. The acton was taken
following reports that Miss Lorraine E.
Wooster, state superintendent OF pub
lie instruction, had used vocational
training funds for repairs in her
office.
Miss Wooster is a member of the
executive council, but did not attend
the meeting. Under a resolution
adopted by members present, all
proposals for improveme in the
state house must hereafter be sub
mitted to the council for approval or
rejection. This general plan has been

Der of years, but on occasion has been
ignored.

name to the voucher for repairs in her
fice-improvements amounting to
$676.26-she charges that the respon-
sibility rests with Fred w. Knapp, state
auditor. She states that she told
Knapp to pay the bill out of whatever
fund is availab le."

Sanitary conditions at the home are

a number of orphans homes in the

thirty-five such homes in Kansas have

cense. A number are rapidly making
improvements in order to obtain a IL
cense, she said. but others show no
pretense of complying with state re-
qu1rements. If means could be found
for caring for children of such indif-

Kansas are pleasant and appropriate
places for children who have no other
homes. A home of especially high
standard is the Lutheran Synod home

Private children's homes, conducted

of the board and several have been
