the end of September, a uarter that
in the amount of business euals or ex-
cells any other uarter within the last

that there was not day. including

the commissioner did not earn a per
diem. During the preceding month.
there was only one day missed, that

last month. nearly all defendants
named in the complaints have been
arraigned and either placed under
