$7,000,000 IN - PUBLIC MONEY
8 RECOVERED
Work of State Board of
Accounts Outlined in Radio Talk.
About $7,000,000 of public money has been recovered by the State Board of Accounts since its inception in June, 1909, Edward P. Brennan, state budget director, said last night in a radio address. Mr. Brenan spoke over an Indiana radio network during the period allotted to Gov. McNutt. - “Greatest benefits derived from the State Board of Accounts,” Mr. Brennan declared, “are its repressive effect, its prevention of speculation, losses and extravagance.” Competent personnel, continuity of .service,. freedom from politics, careful administration, impartial examination and publicity given findings were some of the reasons named by Mr. Brennan for the board’s success.
Came After Bitter Fight
Thomas R. Marshall, former Governor, Mr. Brennan stated, had the courage to conduct a state-wide exposure of misconduct by public officials, and subsequently established the department. The public accounting, supervising and reporting law by which the State Board of Accounts was established was enacted after one of the hardest fights in Indiana legislative history, Mr. Brennan explained. Adolph Seidensticker, postmaster; Linton A. Cox and James W. Noel, local attorneys, were members of the 1909 General Assembly who were instrumental in passing the bill Willen created the department, he d
“Efficiency of personnel in public office throughout the state has been on the upgrade since the bill was enacted, and taxpayers consequently have benefited,” the speaker concluded.

She no longer respected him, and without respect love was synthetic, never real. She led the way to the table, sat down, chatted gaily. ordered hot milk and toasted wafers, ‘all the time aware of a new independence that was like a lovely, releasing tide. Because she was free, her gray eyes were softer, the color in her cheeks was brighter, and the man who so soon was to go back to the Pampas noticed these things.

be back in a man’s world—a man’s world, true, that was rather empty without a woman. . . . He would not propose to Camilla ‘again. He had been mistaken. He might have felt some impulse, though, on the basis of his years of devotion if tonight hadn't given him a new perspective. Camilla, he reasoned, who cared rothing for Bob and, knew that the man mattered to Marcia, shouldn’t have accepted a late invitation from Bob. Oh the devil-— ® t J 2 ° XCUSE me, all or you, won’t you? I'm getting off at dawn so I think I'll turn in.” °~ He left abruptly. Five minutes later Marcia said, . “I'm getting sleepy, too. Ill see you in the morning.” : “Wait a minute or two. We'll go
along,” Bob said, but Marcia shook
her head. : “I might get awake and I don't like to lie and count white sheep. Good night, Marcia. Goodby, Bob.” Marcia saw Phil off the next morning—saw him off in a gray dawn and felt like crying because he was going away. “Marcia, you Were grand to get up and say goodby to me,” he said, blue eyes warm and strong hands very firm on her fingers. “Those other sleepyheads haven't any manners.” Mayle she would never see him

“Good thing you're clearing out, my lad,” he told himself. “You couldn’t take much more of without making a fool of yourself.”
It was late that same afternoon:
that Marcia definitely refused Bob. “Youre the handsomest man I know, with one exception,” she told him. “You make love divinely and I hope you'll ask me to tea sometimes. But marriage, Bobbie—I'm afraid not.” “As you say, of course.” He didn’t plead his suit and she wondered if perhaps Camilla was mattering to him. Camilla had money, too—more even than she had.

Then after that I think I'll be going home. I'll be bumping into you on 5th-av some day soon!” Seated on the train, that evening, she reflected that as easily as though everybody would meet

“OF COURSE there's : market for bigger water-

' the visitor said.
The Illinois Central agricultural man was thinking. He knew a section of the country his railroad

that would be ideally suited to these superwatermelons the visitor recommended.
So the’ Nlinois Central talked bigger and better watermelons to the people in that district. It showed how to raise fine watermelons — pointed
out the markets.
