Treasury Board Denies Charge of Political Favoritism
Republic State Treasurer Walter Peery accused the Democratic controlled State Board of Treasury Examiners of political favoritism in deposits. State Auditor Clay Hedrick, the lone Republican, countered that the board rotates deposits among banks and denied political motives. Board members include Robert Brandt and Carl O Leary, with Gov. Docking having two appointees. Peery resisted board orders to transfer deposits and blamed governor’s support for actions against him.
