S2OO MISTAKE MAY COST JOB OF STATE AID Otto Lee Faces Possible Ouster Because of Pay Roll Overdraft. J. Otto Lee, who has held over as clerk of the state printing board from the Eld Jackson era, has paid back S2OO he overdrew on an election payroll in October, 1928. Payment was made to Floyd E. Williamson, state auditor, without protest when field examiners of the state board of accounts unearthed the "error” while examining state printing board accounts. “It was only a clerical error, and I paid the S2OO as soon as it was brought to my attention,” Lee explained today. “I’d rather nothing would be said about it.” Error Is Disclosed How the "error” came about was disclosed by the examination being conducted by Ralph Hesler and E. H. Brennan of the state board of accounts. Lee turned in a voucher, number 210.195 in the auditor’s files, and collected $2,875.70 for "pay roll of extra help in the distribution of state e lection ballots from Oct. 1-27, 1928.” With the voucher is filed two pay lolls, one totaling $1,747.50 and the other $928.20, the total being G 2,675.70. Lee kept the S2CO, until now when he paid up and obtained a receipt irom the state auditor’s office. . Disclosure of his failure to refund this overdraft may result in Lee’s ouster from office, it was predicted at the statehouse today. He is a Republican, but has no strong backing from Governor Harry G. Leslie, who did not appoint him. Parties Split Evenly Members of the state printing board, charged with the appointment of clerk, are Governor Leslie, president, Williamson. Secretary of State Frank Mayr Jr., and Miss Genevieve Brown, reporter of the supreme and appellate courts. This leaves a 50-50 division between Democrats and Republicans, Miss Brown being a Republican and the auditor and secretary of state Democrats. The clerk of the board must be a printer with some business ability. One reason for Lee remaining has been failure of the printers’ union to agree on a successor, it was said. Criticism of both Lee and the loose method of handling the pay roll is expected to be part of the examiners report to Lawrence F. Orr, chief examiner of the state board of accounts.

COMPLETE CURE IS EFFECTED BY USE OF CORTIN Chicago Woman, Sufferer From Addison’s Disease, Is Sent Home. By United Press CHICAGO, Oct. 21. Mrs. Andrew Nelson, 41. who was saved from death of Addison’s disease six weeks ago when a shipment of cortin serum was sent from Buffalo by ariplane. was discharged today from the Albert Merritt Billings hospital, and reunited with her husband and six children. “I am so grateful to be back with the children,” Mrs. Nelson smiled as she returned to her home. “It was what gave me the will to live —the thought that the young ones needed me.” With Mrs. Nelson’s discharge, it was disclosed for the first time that

[administration of the cortin serum. ; which was difficult to obtain, ceased two weeks ago, as an experiment, and her reaction was so favorable j that resumption was not necessary. Instead of being a slave to the I serum, with its use necessary for ian indefinite length of time, Mss. j Nelson will be able to resume her j former place in the household after ' a few days’ rest. Physicians do not believe she will ! suffer from recurrence of Addison's I disease, which is a rare ailment and ; had no specific treatment until the , cortin was developed. “It’s good to be back home again,” Mrs. Nelson said today as two of her daughters. Janet and Marie, flew around the house on Chicago's northwest side, putting all in order. “They were nice to me at the hospital and gave me every care, but I couldn’t help worrying about the children and my husband. Andrew [the husband] still is without work, you know, and I was afraid that maybe there wasnt enough to eat.” Nelson, a carpenter, who has been without regular employment for two years, gave a husbandly snort. “We had everything we wanted, mother,” he put in. "everything, that is, except you.” Mrs. Nelson gained twenty-six pounds in weight while she was in the hospital.
