High cost to examine records by state accountants faced
The Carroll County records examination cost $722.68, with $12.50 daily wages for 24 days plus incidentals. Examiners Wolf and Wise billed Delphi and Deer Creek schools $12.50 each, while Camden was $6.25. The bill notes non appropriation from county funds, raising questions on state board of accounts value. Total costs and 1927 recoveries show taxpayer burden despite appropriations.
