Helena. Sept. 23.-Where several
months ago the state board Of exam
iners was confronted with the inability
to obtain a market for the state edu-
cational bonds, the state treasurer is
now facing the problem of what he is
going to do with all the money which
appears likely to come in within the
next few months.
Success Of the Cold Stabeck COM
pany in marketing the bonds under its

has been much greater than the board
had anticipated and it now appears as
state more rapidly than it can be con-
sumed by the building program.
The matter was taken up Friday by
Deputy State Treasurer ]. W. Rogers,
in the absence Of State Treasures
Walker. who stated that the first
S300,O0o had been placed in Montana
banks and that he would be able to
take care Of the $23O.OOO additional
which the bonding company had sold
on the second installment
These amounts, he said, were all that
the Montana banks could handle under
the security provided by them for the
protection of the state and that they
did not desire to take any more.
He stated that it would be poor
financing for the state to be paying in
terest at the rate Of 51h upon money
secured under the bond issue and to re-
ceive from the banks only 21a per
cent as provided for money on de-
posit,
Mr.. Rogers presented a plan of hav-
ing the money. such as will not be
required Immediately, invested in
United States treasury certificates
which are issued for short periods,
can be converted into cash at any time
and which would bring to the state
treasury an interest earning virtually
equalling that which the state would
be paying upon the bonds.
The matter will be taken up before
the board of examiners at the next

and had invested in securities $685.
9SS.52 a total Of $3S2, 1851.
During the year the board collected
for boiler inspections $19,36S.S7.
Known disability compensation yet to be
paid on injuries already sustained
amounts to S141,O0O.
The 1921 report Of the industrial
accident board will not be printed this
year upon SO elaborate scale as in
past years and the present adninis-
tration, which has not heretofore been
charged with any economies, expects to
make a saving in this one instance of
about $500.
Last year the cost of the annual re-
port of this board was about $4,000,
Of which printing cost about So, 300 and
the distribution $7OO. Chairman Locke
endeavored to get by without issuing
any report, but the board of examiners
held that the law required its publ
cation and he accordingly has prepared
copy for adiminutive report which he
expects to have printed and distributed
at tost not to exceed $500.
