Terre Haute Enums Schemes Questioned by State Audit

The Terre Haute school board pushes a per capita contract for counting pupils amid fraud fears and past padding. The Indiana superintendent sent the issue to the attorney general, who says enumerators must be paid by the day, not by names, and warns against per head prizes and dummy names. The piece critiques overreliance on the AG and urges officers to read statutes and act independently. It also discusses resistance to inheritance tax laws and argues for both state and federal taxes on large inheritances.
