He was in Browning wednesday
and visited the office of the
school district and it is presumed
he talked with various individ.
uals in the area TO get the gen,
eral feel of the atmosphere sur
rounding the mysterious DISPOSE
ton of unaccountable funds com,
plicated by a general lack OF
pertinent records. some of which
were admittedly destroyed by a
former superintendent of schools,
Harry Cloke.
Particularly cOmplicating to spe,
cial investigator Hatfield will be,
as it would TO any investigator,
the fact that money was taken
from school sources and deposi-
ted in a bank and deposits to and
disbursements from the accounts
thus set up were not taken into
account with the official records
of the district.
One account involved deposits
OF Sl32, 133.O8 over a period of
seven years, of which no records
exist 10 account for Sll3,92435.
Only the last few months of the
funds existence, when at last
an audit appeared imminent, were
any records found at all for any
of the monies deposited during
that period. The missing records
were admittedly destroyed by Mr.
Cloke.
How many people in the school
setup who actually laid eyes on
the statements emanating from
the bank at the end of regular
accounting periods is only one of
the determinations to be made
as a result of State Examiners
report.
The fact remains when an audit
was requested by the school board
the former superintendent was
invited" TO resign, and he did so
as of June 30, prior to the at
tempted audit made during the
last half of August
How long Hatfield will remain
in the county on this trip is not
known at this time.

pleased with it. AS a result, the

County Commissioners
Reject Speed Limit

Comparatively uneventful was
the February meeting of the
board of county commissioners
this week. The commissioners
took no action on a proposal of
the commissioners setting motor
car speeds on public highways as
several boards have already done.
They felt that the State Highway
Patrol has the situation well in
hand until the next State Legis-
lature comes up with more statu-
tory disciplining of drivers.

Glacier County Will
Receive $S5,55l
Equalization Fund

HELENA - Superintendent OF
Public Instruction Harriet Miller
this week notified County Trea,
surer George MaSengill and Coun-
ty Superintendent of Schools.
Mrs. Laura Jane Taft that Ola
cier county will receive S85, 551 90
as the first of two payments for
elementary and secondary schools
from the State Public School
Equalization fund.
Miss Miller said the first pay
ment represents about so per
cent of the money which the
county'S schools are scheduled to
receive from this source in the
current school year.
The elementary schools will
also eceive a payment next
month from another source, the
interest and income from the
State Permanent School fund,
the state superintendent said.
The state payments are for aid
ing in the support of the schools
Foundation programs, or basic
budgets, Miss Miller said. The
balance of the Foundation pro
gram money comes from school
district and county taxes.
The school districts and coun-
ties also provide most of the
funds which schools need over
and above the Foundation pro-
gram. Statewide, the Foundation
program accounts for only about
one-half of all school costs, Miss
Miller explained.

How scientific prayer leads to a

brought out at Christian Science SER
vices Sunday.
The Lesson-Sermon on Truth" will
include the following passages from
the Bible duke 11:11, 49,: "If a son
shall ask bread of any of you that is
a father, will he give him a stone? or
If he ask a fish, will he for a fish
give him a serpent? If We then
being evil, know how to give good
gifts unto you children: how much
more shall your heavenly Father give
the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?'
The Importance of prayer is aso en-
