POLITICAL WAR TO BREAK OVER BUDGET SLASH Affected Officials Hint at Suit to Force County Council to Pay. Rumblings of a storm in county politics were heard today as a result of the slashing of SIOO,OOO from departmental salary and equipment requests in the 1930 county budget by councilmen Wednesday. In addition to a further break in the courthouse political ranks, as a result of the budget reductions, affected officials today indicated they will file suits in county courts in efforts to obtain mandamus writs that will force the council to pay the appropriation requests. Officials and employes who have broken ranks with George V. Coffin, county and district Republican leader, and who suffered most in the budget reductions Wednesday, today declared "Coffin is to blame.” Charge Political Framing They indicated that the council with five of seven members friendly to Coffin, had used the budget slashing as a means to stifle job distrbution in the offices of Republican opponents. A series of suits, seeking to obtain mandates against the council and County Auditor Harry Dunn, which if granted would force payment of the budget requests, also were contemplated today, it was known. Consideration of county institution funds, working balances and other similiar items was started today. Councilmen are endeavoring to bring the 1930 tax levy rate to about 4Q cents, or a drop of 13 cents from the levy proposed by county commissioners. Deputy Gets Raise Sheriff George L. Winkler’s victory in obtaining an enlarged sheriff’s budget, .including a salary increase for Harry Bendel, chief enforcement deputy, and funds for increasing officie and patrol equipment, was taken by county officials to mean that councilmen used “steam roller” methods in abiding by Coffin's wishes. County Clerk George Hutsell and iXmn, both of whom have been allied against the Coffin reign, were Effected seriously by the budget slashing, and hinted that "the affair was perpetrated because certain elements won’t ally themselves with Coffin.” Hutsell several months ago publicly declared his “break” with Coffin. Prosecutor Judson L. Stark suffered the fall of the council's ax when $21,800 was cleft from his fund, decreasing the salaries of nine deputies, lowering radically the courthouse office operating expenses and eliminating two city court deputies and a criminal court investigation fund. Dunn was deprived of funds for added help and the salary of present employes was cut $6,200 from the budget request. Hits Anti-Coffinites The reason for councilmen denying County Treasurer Clyde E. Robinson $40,000 additional for new employes in the delinquent tax department. proved disconcerting to ar.ti-Coffinites. as the treasurer has teen regarded as a .Coffin protege • Robinson's 1930 pay budget, howet'er, remained at the 1929 figure. Whether the council exceeded its authority in reducing salaries of court reporters from $3,000 to $2,400 a year and court bailiffs frohi $2,400 to SI,BOO a year may be decided in several mandate suits to force the auditor to allow original requests. Fred T. Gladden, county school superintendent, probably will resort to mandate action to overthrow the council’s act in not only disallowing his $1,200 a year salary raise but in cutting his salary SBOO below the $3,600 mark. Councilmen allowed Gladden $3,600 for the remainder of this year but said the lower rate will be effective Jan. 1.

INCORPORATION FEES GAIN IS $62,087.01 Incorporation fees paid the state In August represented a gain of $52.087 01 over August of last year, according to figures made public by the office of Secretary of State Otto G. Fifield. Fifield attributes the increase to the new incorporation law. which reduces the fee to 1-cent a share but encourages greater numbers of incorporators in this state. The total for August was $79,788.57 this year and $17,701.56 in 1928. Disbursements were $3,497.91 as compared to $1.52695. due to the increased business Fifield reported.
