One of the most important issues of the present Judgeship campaign in Centre County directly affects your pocketbook, for there are certain phases of county expenditures which are under the sole control of the Judge. Let's review the record for the past ten years and determine how much created jobs and thelr attending expense have cost the taxpayers, and how other expenditures controlled from the Judge's Chambers have eaten into the County's coffers, The job of Desertion, Probation and Parole Officer and Costs Clerk was created ten years ago with the appointment of Roy Wilkinson, whose salary and expenses by the close of the current year will be approximately $36,650.17. The office of County Detective was revived, after a lapse of 23 years, at a cost of $22,540.68. The Judge's stenographer was given an increase in salary which has amounted to $3,000. A new job was created in the appointment of an assistant to the Desertion, Probation and Parole offi- cer and Costs Clerk, which has entailed an added expense of $4,440.00. Bo it is readily seen that the extra running expenses of the county in the past ten years through created jobs alone has totaled $66,548.85. This figure does not include an item of $16,551.97 for books for the law library, many of which are rarely used. All of these expenses are met by the County Treasury, and ultimately come out of the pockets of the voters. Just for the sake of seeing how some of these monies are spent let's open the itemized record of the Desertion, Probation and Parole officer, and choose a page at random. Here we have expenditures for a trip to Pittsburgh and Blawnox: Lunch Dinner Sansas Hotel at Pittsburgh Telegrams, telephone, ete 154 miles traveled today Total expense for today Wilkinson has ounty and of Philipsburg ines of the County him $36558.17 an amount approximately $120,000.00 been in public ly for a period Desertion, Prol ng for the past ten ) fy i Al Uncollected Fines & Cosis, Year. Fines & Costs Mr. Wilkinson's Collected. Salary & Expenses $ 8.797. $ 3072.01 10,508.18 3677.55 7836.22 3667.42 9.549.400 4,190.35 7092.83 3,887.98 3.66661 3,658.92 7,272.58 3.525.009 6,149.24 3,692.78 2,931.85 3,587.07 3,600.00 $36,559.17 The reports did not show uncollected costs for 1028 and 1829 but after being in office two years the uncollected fines and costs totaled $26,09255. In 19831 uncoliected fines and costs aggregated $24,162.19 and during the year Mr. Wilkinson collected $9540.40, which included fines and costs imposed by the court that year, Yet the item of uncollected fines and costs for 1932 showed a drop of from $24,162.19 to $10,960.15, It is evident that if all the costs collected during the year are added to the uncollected costes at the end of the year, the total is still far short of the unocllected costs for 1931. And this, bear in mind, does not in- clude fines and costs imposed during the year. The only conclusion that can be drawn from the above figures is that when the Desertion, Probation and Parole Officer was unable to collect many of the fines and costs, they were charged off the books as uncollectible-~which comprises one way of not collecting accounts, When 1936 opened, Mr. Wilkinson was faced with a total of $13.- (Continued on inside page) 1928 1929 1930 1931 1932 1933 1934 1935 Ns ......... 1937 (Estimated) $26,092.55 24,162.19 10,960.15 9,651.00 15,257.00 13,157.21 9,970.38 ' TOWN AND COUNTY NEWS HAPPENINGS OF LOCAL INTEREST FROM ALL PARTS ete. says thé for Will N.
