RILEY'S RULING
TIES UP HUGE
SALARY ROLL
Pay of Employees of Self
Supporting Boards
Affected
Hy United Press Leased Wire

SACRAMENTO, Cal, July 80
Salaries of all employees of self sup
porting state boards will be auto
matically tied up by August / by
State Controller Ray Riley,
Pay warrants aggregating $780,
600 will be stopped by his action,
pending settlement of many court
suits to determine the status of
funds of the self supporting boards.
Riley today reiterated the state
ment made first on July 20 to this
effect.
The point involved in the tie up
and the court suits is whether re-
ceipts of the self supporting boards
and commissions shall be diverted
into the general fund of the state
us demanded By the state board of
control.
The matter has already been
placed before the supreme court by
the state railroad commission.
Other boards will join in the liti-
alton.
Local banks have loaned money
free of interest to boards that
were made short of funds due to
the tangled condition of affairs
brought about by the board of con-
troll Interpretation of the state
budget law.
These free loans cannot be kept
up very long, it is now indicated,
and the boards and commissions in
volvcd may face an actual shortage
of cash for salary payments be-
tween August ! and the time the
supreme court renders its decision.
