WOMAN TO.
HAVE CHARGE Of
FUNDS
Mrs. A. L. Lehman is
Given Very Important
Position

Word was received in Fairmont
this morning Of the appointment OF
Mrs. A. L. Lehman, OF this city, to
be assistant secretary to the State
Sinking Fund commission, a new
position created by the last session
Of the legislature and regarded as
one Of the most important apointive
posts at Charleston.
The act creating the State Sink
ing Fund Commission provides that
It shall consist Of the state tax com
missioner, the secretary Of state,
state auditor and state treasurer.
The acs also provides that the state
tax Commissioner shall be the chair
man and the secretary Of state the
secretary Of the commission and
that makes the person who holds
the position of assistant secretary
the directing head Of the commits
sion. This appointment would have
been given to some leading male
Republican but for the desire OF the
members Of the commission to rec
ognizc the women members of the
party
The commission is a decidedly
important body. Its principal func-
ton will be to administer all inter-
est and sinking funds required for
tn ebond issues of the counties, ma
gisterial districts, school districts
and municipalities throughout the
state. This will require a lot of
hard work on the part OF the assist
ant secretary. The salary for the
position has not yet been fixed but
1t viii be commensurate with the
responsibilities.
