cause Osborn's principal aim as

THAD MOORE.
and
PUBLIC ECONOMY

In MS announcement DIS Cdnul-
date for reelection to the office of
State Tax Commissioner Thad NJ
Moore promised that he would con-
tinue to pursue the present policy
of rigid economy in the conduct of
the COMMISSIONS affairs" :. It.. is
therefore important to the voters of
this state that you know the nature
and character Of this policy Of econ
omy which. Thad-. NJ Moore has
promised to- continue. The facts
hereinafter given are taken from
the official records of the State of
Arizona and may be- inspected and
verified by anyone. On November 9,
1886, the State Auditor filed with
the Governor of this State the re-
port of the State Auditors exami-
nation of three departments of the
State Tax Commission, namely, the
Sales Tax Department, Luxury Tax
Department and. Liquor. Depart
ment.
In the report covering the Sales
Tax Department appears the first
example of the rigid economy"
which Mr.. Moore promises to con-
tinue if you re-elect him to the Tax
Commission. The State Auditors
report says:
Among other things purchased
by the Sales Tax Department, it
will be noted, was two 80 S. & w.
Special Revolvers and two 45 Colts
Automatic Revolvers, at a cost of
$138.50. There was purchased also
seven shoulder holsters and one hip
holster for the four guns referred to.
No reasonable answer has yet been
advanced as to the necessity Of these
items for the Sales Tax Depart
ment.
From letter appearing in the
report written by A. L. Frees, then
Director of the Sales Tax Division,
to the Secretary Of the Tax Com
mission, it appears that two of
these guns were delivered by Mr.
Frees to Mr.. Thad Moore. Why they
were required in the administration
of the Sales Tax has not been ex-
planned. But they were paid for with
public money.
Concerning expense accounts the
State Auditor says, "The examina-
tion Of the department expense ac-
counts was undertaken and to en-
able us to do this in an intelligent
way, we secured, from the depart
ment files, the daily activity sheets
Of their field auditors and repre-
sentatives, and in matching these
reports with expense accounts re-
turned, we, found, in many in
stances, amazing conditions.
The Auditor sets forth several
pages of astounding specific ex-
amples of useless, unnecessary and
improper expenditure of State Sales
Tax funds in travel expenses, paid
out in most instances, if not all,
with the approval of Thad Moore.
In that portion of the report
covering the operation of the Liquor
Department appear even m e
amazing examples of the policy of
rigid economy which Mr.. Moore
proposes to continue.
Until approximately year ago
funds Of the Liquor Department
were not deposited with the State
Treasurer and paid out On claims
approved by the State Auditor as
State money ordinarily is handled,
but was deposited to the credit of
the State Tax Commission and paid
out on claims approved by two
members of the Commission.
Concerning claims paid by the
Liquor Department the State Au-
ditor says, Examination of claims
approved by the Tax Commission
Nogales international., 1938-09-10

purpose Of verification
Careful scrutiny Of the claims
referred to discloses the fact that
very few are presented in proper
form, very often they are not even
signed by the claimant and in most
cases, are not properly sworn to be-
fore notary public.
items not properly chargeable to
the department are very much in
evidence. Claims rejected by the
State Auditor for cause, after hav-
ing been filed by other divisions Of
the Tax Commission, were found to
be paid out Of Liquor Department
funds
personal liability and property
damage insurance on automobiles
have been paid, although such items
are not properly charge against
any department of the state govern
ment.
In nearly every instance, if not
all, these expenditures were approx
ed by Mr.. Moore, who promises to
continue such practice, and include
some eight sleeping bags costing
better than $4,000 each, two Of
which were taken over by Mr..
Moore personally.
Concerning the use Of personal
automobiles and the purchase of
gasoline, oil and such, the State Au-
ditor reports: Agents of the Liquor
Division use their own personal
cars in the conduct of department
business, for which they charge the
state seven cents per mile for dis
tance travelled, but in spite Of this
arrangement, repairs, requirements,
gas, oil and other items are charged
to this department and paid.
TN this connection it was noted
that an apparent abuse of the use Of
credit cards issued by gasoline COM
panies were very much in evidence,
so much so that it was deemed ad
visable to compile statement Of
gasoline purchases by the Tax Com
mission in all their divisions for
ready reference, and which state
ment is made a part of this report
as Schedule No. 6"
The Auditor further states that
the purchases referred to in Sched-
ule 9 were apparently made in near
ly every instance by the then chair
man of the State Tax Commission,
Thad M. Moore, and that, travel
items by Commission members
Moore to California and elsewhere,
from Liquor Department Funds,
were also in evidence, which trips
have every indication of being trips
Of a personal nature or were con
tracted in the discharge of duties
not relating to the Liquor Division"
In Schedule 9 covering purchases
Of gasoline and attached to the re-
port of the State Auditor appears
numerous purchases by Thad Moore
at numerous times and at various
places in California such as Long
Beach, Redondo Beach, Los An
geles, San Diego, Santa Barbara,
Berkeley and San Francisco. 1t is
difficult to understand the nature
Of the States business which requir-
ed Mr.. Moore's numerous trips to
these California points.
The foregoing are but a few of
the amazing examples Of the policy
of rigid economy which Thad Moore
promises to continue if reelected.
1t is your money which is being
spent. Is this the way you believe
it should be spent? Do you want
this policy continued? There can be
only one answer-No. The record
Of Jake Linville, both in private and
public life, assures you that his cleo

Washington, Sept. 2O.-(AP)- The
United States will have to revise its

ter's Sudeten territory is coded to
Germany.
Experts listed this today as one of
three prospective changes in Amer

event the British-French peace plan
is adopted. The others are:

If the Hungarian and Polish minori-

be made.

Final Purge
Effort Made
tBy The Associated Press)


The success or failure of Preslden-
tial efforts to defeat Chairman John
OConnor, of the House Rules Com
mttee, was being determined today
by voters of New York Citys East
Side tenements and pent houses.
O'Connor, whom Mr.. Roosevelt re-
Gently termed zone of the most eff
fective distractions in the house,
sought both Democratic and Repub-
lican nominations. The double con
test was about the only one giving
a national flavor to primary elections.
1t was the Presidents fourth and final
effort in this years primaries to UNI
seat lawmakers whom he called con-
sentative. He lost Democratic sena-
torial battles in South Carolina, Geor
gia and Maryland.
James Fay, supported by Mr.. Roose-
welt, was O'Connor's Democratic op-
ponent. No matter who wins that
nomination, Fay's name will be on
the ballot at the November election as
candidate of the American Labor Par
ty. Running against O'Connor on the
Republican committee was Allen
Dulles, former tSate Department aide.

Berlin, Sept 20.-(AP)-The Ger

ported a steady series of Czecho-

Sudeten Germans and Czechoslovak
detachments
Che reports were issued by the
news agency DNB with the regularity
of clock work. They told of incident

tier detachments fired on DESERVING
Sudeten soldiers, and also endanger-
ed civilian fugitives.
In one of the engagements II Ger

mountains on the Silesian side of the
German-Czech border.
German strategy seemed to be to
let Sudeten daserters and Konrad

out with Czechoslovak frontier forces
without involving the regular German
army. However, an Associated Press
