ADAMS FINANCES
Mixup in Reports on Tempo
rary Loans, Tax Liens and
Liquor Licenses
Gettysburg. Pa., April 21. The
board of auditors of Adams county
have gotten their annual report made
a short time ago into a tangle that
will require going before the court
to straighten out. Errors have been
found in the repor% that shows the
country to be in debt to the amount
of about $6,000 more than is really
the case.
Although the commissioners, coun
ty treasurer or auditors are rather
averse to giving out any definite fig
ures or statements concerning the
matter the errors seem to have oc
curred in three different items in the
account, temporary loans, liquor li
cense money and tax liens.
Just what the mix up is in the tax
lien proposition has not been made ,
clear, but the claim has been made
that question is rather intricate. (
with liens of different dates, many of i
them old. and that it would not be ,
a difficult matter to become tangled ;
up on this item. The $2,000 tempo- !
rary loan error is explained by the ,
fact that the loan charged up in the
report this year is one that was j
made two years ago and had been
taken care of in the report last year j
and had no place in this year's re
port. The other place of error was
that the money collected by the,
county treasurer for liquor licenses ;
had not been charged up by the
commissioners at all. The collections
had been made all right and the
treusurer had records of the busi
ness. but by some oversight no en
tries had been made on the books of
the commissioners. !
At least a part of this trouble ■
could have been avoided if the audi
tors would have gone into their work
with a little more detail. At the ,
tire-, when the board was doing its
work Robert D. Myers, one of the
auditors, discovered some of the mis
takes, but the other two members
could not see it as he did and 'ne j
could not persuade them and so the
report was presented as prepared. ;
laiter Myers, not feeling satisfied
with the report as it was. told the
deputy county treasurer of what he
thought was the correct condition of i
the finances he had questioned with
the result that this officer began
going over his books, to discover that
Myers was correct and that the coun- <
ty should have a debt $6,000 less
that it was charged with. The only [
way now to straighten out the tangle j
is for the auditors to present a peti
tion to the court to have the report j
corrected, and this will be done at
tho earliest time possible.
