Auditor seeks 25 extra examiners for welfare checks in Ohio
Ohio Auditor Thomas E. Ferguson asks the State Controlling Board to fund 25 more welfare investigators to probe potential improper benefits within the Department of Public Welfare. James Bolden cites up to 3000 workers possibly fraudulently receiving aid from a PERS relief list, with $300,000 requested for expanded audits. The welfare department cautions the figures are unverified and dated, while other board actions include prison locks funding, OSU Mansfield facilities, a highway safety training contract, and Malabar Farms land acquisition.

Ohio tax change petition misses Aug deadline
The drive to place a constitutional amendment on the November ballot to ease property taxes failed to meet the Aug 1 signature target of 308000. Backers plan to resume collecting by March 1 for a possible June primary, led by Francis Gaul with support from Prebie County Citizens for Fair Taxation. About 160000 to 170000 signatures were gathered. The amendment would scrap the uniform 35 percent assessment and apply a sliding scale by property type, prioritizing industrial then commercial and residential assessments. Sea of Wonders won junior exhibitor three gaited saddle horse at the Lexington show.
