AUDIT NOT UP
TO GRAND JURY
Attorney-General Has No
Evidence to Offer in Levy
Court Probe
MAY NOT FINISH
INQUIRY THIS YEAR

Attorney General Townsend to-
day made a statement relative to
rumors that have been current for
sometime in connection with the
New Castle Levy Court.
The Attorney General said that all
the Levy Court accounts from jan
uary. 1921. to July 1. 1929. are be-
ing audited and that this audit is
proceeding slowly not only because
he has been required to confer with
the auditors at numerous times. but
also owing to the fact that the con-
tingent fund at his disposal for
1922 will likely be insufficient to
complete the investigation and that
the audit will probably be carried
over to 1928.
Nothing has been found, accord
ing to the Attorney General to war

the grand jury asking for an in
dictment.
