STATE AUDITOR
MAKES REPORT
IN ANNUAL SUMMARY SETS
FORTH VARIOUS IMPROVE
MENTs WHICH COULD BE
MADE.

Pierre, Dec. 18.-The annual re-
port of State Auditor Reeves con-
tains in the letter of transmittal a
number of Communications, among
them one in which he suggests a
state purchasing department along
the lines OF the Wisconsin plan.
where one central purchasing agency
buys for the state institutions, and
fills their needs from central point
which would. in his estimation, show
saving over the plan of each de-
partment purchasing Independently
Also that a mimeograph depart
ment be installed in the state build
ing, in which all such work be done,
saving the time and expenses of
each department operating its own
mimeograph for such work
As to the matter of plan of opera
tion through state budget. he sug-
gests that this work be carried on
by proper officials through the year
and not leave il to the last few days
before the opening of legislative
session TO be worked out at that
time alone. A continuous checking
system in his view would be much
more efficient.
The present plan of payink coun-
ty agents out of three different
funds is not considered good busi-
ness principle by him, and his sug-
gestion is that their pay should come
from one source. either that the
state portion of the fund be paid ov-
er to the counties. and the county
agents be paid from that source.
In the same line the accounting
in which vouchers of county agents
must meet the approval of officials
scattered over the state Is held to be
one likely to cause confusion and err
ror. and this should be changed to
allow one approval cover the neces-
sary features for the issuance Of a
warrant.
He calls attention to the use of
the rate expert in the state railway
department in estimating freight
bills submitted to the state, by
which work number of overcharg-
es have been refunded: that it is
possible that the state could secure
considerable revenue by the private
shippers Of the state securing the
services of this department in check
ing their freight hills. on $3.50
basis or recovery Of overcharges.
He shows that through the requi-
siti0n system established in that de-
partment there has been deduction
ON accounts to the amount Of So
1S6.4z for the past year, this bsing
in the way Of duplicate bills and
overrharges not authorized by law,
which were developed by the ac-
counting system now in use.
The report as usual carries in
volume I the itemfxed expenses ac-
counts Of every empIoye Of the state
showing what they expended and for
what purpose. down TO the smallest
