MANAGEMENT OE i E N. G. SCORED IN CAMPAIGNSPEECH Dr, McCulloch Declares Adjutant General's Office Inefficient. By Times Special KOKOMO, Ind., dct. 3 —Dr. Carleton B. McCulloch, Democratic candidate for Governor, scored managemeent of the State adjutant general’s office, being probed by the State board of accounts, in a speech here Thursday night. “I have the greatest .admiration for our National Guard,” Dr. McCulloch said, “and I believe it to be an organization of as fine.ik.body of men as exists ahywhere in the State. Having had two years' experience in the Army during the late war, I am sympathetic toward efforts properly made to insure America's future peace and security. "I am convinced, however, that the adjutant general’s office has been run so unscientifically and loosely that there is great opportunity for improvement. “As far back as November, 1923. bills overdue became so numerous the State auditor asked the State Aboard of accounts for an investigation. Besides already spending $130,786.50 more than was spent under Democratic efficiency, the adjutant general has piled up $125,000 more in unpaid bills, some of which are a year past due. “Hundreds of men have failed to receive salaries for more than a year.”
