SCHOOL FUND
TRANSFER MAY
Be PROTESTED
C. of C. to Fight Alleged
Move to Take Care of
Illegal Deal.

Proposed appropriation Of s34,e15
by the school board from the special
fund 10 the Shortridge high school
building fund. to legalize alleged
illegal transfer Of the money with
out an appropriation several months
ago. may be protested TO the state
tax board by the Chamber of Com
merce civic affairs committee, 1t
was learned today
The sum TO be transferred. it Is
reported, represents an alleged
illegal payment to Freyn Brothers,
contractors who installed the G. c..
Ship direct-indirect heating and
ventilating system in the school.
G. G. York. school business
director, has set public hearing on
the appropriation for Nov. -.
More Paid Out
In connection with the alleged IL
legal transaction, William H. Book,
chamber civic affairs director,
pointed out that, according to fig
IA co va dIlA L.
secretary. total of $1,304,355 has
been paid out for the new Short
ridge building. whereas the bond
issue for the building was only
$4,000
1t was asserted that a large part
Of the $l04,355 above the bond issue
may have been paid out Of the spe-
clal fund in the same alleged Illegal
manner.
Sterling r. Holt, city controller,
has notified school officials that he
Ntll not honor any more school
vouchers without evidence of a for
NAL transfer having been made.

far for Shortridge, s103.500, or a to-
tai Of 8.6 per cent, represents arcti-
tects fees, Book said.
Voted for Discard
In May. 1926, the school board
voted to discard Shortridge plans,
costing $43,775, which the previous
board had approved and had sought
and received construction bids, DE
cause plans called for a 100000
building, whereas it could be con-
Structed with the same number OF
rooms for 100000.
The original plans, drawn by Kopf
81 Wooling, now Kopf & Deery, did
not contain specifications for the c.
C. Shipp direct-indirect heating and
ventilating system. and the same
firm was employed to prepare new
plans specifying this system.
School board members. in COM
menting on the $34,915 alleged ille-
gal transfer, pointed out it was an
oversight resulting from the fact
that total bids for the building ex-
ceeded proceeds from the bond
issue
Instead of cutting out part Of the
work, it was decided to authorize
contractors to go ahead with the
work and pay the difference from
the special fund, it was declared.
