There will be singing by grades 1

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:

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.-
