Ammons of “We found the records in the Su perintendent’s office in very good shape and Mr. Hendrix was co-oper ative with us in every way during the audit of this office. The Auditors were unable to cover the entire yeais’ transaction in the Exchange iBank fund. They found all money, collected by Clerk Loprinick properly accounted for. Of thV money for which Clerk Frank Sanders was responsible the Auditors said: “We are advised that there are some funds which are held in another account for this Exchange bank building account that have not vet been turned into the Treasurer, which accounts were kept by Mr. Lomi- nrck’s predecessor, Mr. Frank San ders. However, we do not know what is left in this account nor who now holds the records thereon, inas much a s no recoids were offered us to check on this item and we could get no definite information about it other than the fact that such an ac count was in existence. The audit report for the year immediately pre- ceeding this year mentioned that a' separate audit report was being filed on the Exchange bank building. How ever, we have not been able to locate such a report and we merely mention it here so that it will not be lost sight of and dropped entirely from the picture.” The office of Supervisor was found to be in good shape with unexpend ed balance of appropriations of $2,- 197.69. This office disbursed $162,- 427.54. Out of this sum $3,188.60 was spent on the local rationing board for salaries and expenses. Total collections of magistartes. in the county amounted to $2,874.50, about exactly half of that amount "be ing collected by the magistrate ‘ of Newberry district. The cleric of court collected $2,- 214.00, and the fees in the office' of probate judge amounted to $1,090.00, all of which was properly remitted to the treasurer. Income from the Exchange bank building from January 18, 1944 to June 30, 1944 amounted to $2,609.59 •and expenses of the building for the same period were $1,197.33, leaving a balance of $1,412.26, the net in come for about five and a half months. The report shows that the finan cial conditions of the schools of the county improved during the year to the extent of $33,652.06 and only (Bush River School District shows a deficit. This deficit ($14,990.42) stands as a loan from the county and $470.34 interest was paid on it last year. The auditors did not approve the manner in which this transaction was han dled and doubted that the district should pay interest. Outstanding school notes amount ed to $30,577.90. These notes are due by Prosperity, O’Neall, Midwav. St. Philips New Hope-Zion, Little Mountain, Chappells and Bush River school districts and are held at in terest rates of 3 to 6 per cent bv P. C. Siagley D. A. Ruff, Mrs. J. J. Boazman Z. H. Suher Estate, and in the case of Bush River, by Newber ry county. Outstanding road and bridge bonds at the beginning of the year amount ed to $999,000.00 but was reduced by $69,000 by retirement. Many of these bonds run into 1960-66. Interest on these bonds last year amounted" to $51,666.25. Tne auditors were critical of gne or two county officers about minor An appeal for Newberry county taxpayers to make 1945 tax returns was made this week by Auditor Pinckney N. Abrams. Auditor Abrams estimated that only about a third of real and personal property owners have yet filed their returns with only the remaining part of this month left in which to do so before a penalty is added. •Mr. Abrams said between 12,Q00 and 14,000 persons are expected to make returns this year. January and this month havo been designated as months for the filing of returns with the auditor. Those who fail to do so before the end of February are likely to have a penal ty of 10 per cent^-placed on former returns. Citizens age expected to re port personal prppety, any land bought or sold and* also any new year. Land COLUMBIA EVANGELIST AT SUNDAY SCHOOL HERE Dr. C .F.
