STATE AUDITOR FERGUSON
ADDRESSES ROTARIANS

At the regular weekly meeting of
the Rotarians held Friday night at
the Kennebec hotel, State Auditor
JOS. It. Ferguson was the speaker.
He spoke OF the duties of the aud
itor of state. Notwithstanding he
quoted many statistics and figures.
he made his address very interesting
and practical The state auditor is
to the state what the county auditor
| is t6~the county. Both are very busy
! officers. All financial transactions of
the state must pass through the
state auditor, and all bills are aud
tied by him. During the past year
more than 100000 checks were is-
| sued and signed by the state audi
| tor, and that many bills were aud
| tied. Every month more than 112,-
600 old age pension checks are is
sued. The state auditor has direct
supervision over 10000 offices in
the state. The work of the state
auditor has increased rapidly in re-
cent years, due to the division Of
aid for the aged, relief and unem-
ployment compensation. When Vic
Donahey was state auditor there
were less than 100 employees in that
office. Now there are $50. He stat
ed there are practically as many Re-
publicans as Democrats in the state
auditors office.
Mr.. Ferguson spoke at some
length of the inspection of pubic
offices, mentioning some of the
methods used by officials to cover
up shortage. He stated that since
he had been state auditor more per-
sons had been sent to the peniten-
tiary because of shortage in their
accounts, which had been found by
state accountants, than in the same
length of time under any previous
state auditor. He remarked that OF
all the officials in which offices
shortages had been found, since he
became state auditor, that not one
of them had stood trial. While
much of the shortage is made good
through the bonds which is reauir-
ed Of public officials, the taxpayers
OF the state in time lose consider
able of money, due to the fact that
often officials are not bonded heavy
enough to take care of the shortage
The state auditor is now at the head
OF the relief administration in Ohio,
and a close check is being made of
those drawing relief. He told of
of cases of which relief has
been drawn through dishonest meth
DDS. He said that he did not want
needy person to go hungry, but he
was going to clamp down on the
chislers and give them their just
dues
Mr.. Ferguson stated that the state
never has had an inventory of what
1t owns. He asked the legislature
for funds with which to make the
inventory but it was turned down.
At present the state auditors office
is making a record of all old rec
ords, which he states were dug up
in the basement of the state house.
The basement is now being made in
to offices, which will mean a consid-
9rable of saving in the matter of Of
ice rent
Mr.. Ferguson was introduced by
Atty Robert Drury of this place,
who is one of the state auditors
egal advisors. State Auditor Fer
suson was born at Shawnee. AS
BOY he sold papers. He was en-
)loyed in the state auditors office
lnder Vic Donahey, and also under.
Joseph Tracy, and has been an ex-
pert accountant for many years. He
S married and has nine children.
