DoHiiqiiencles Smaller While Oovernor I'lercc Is nt- tacking previous hoards for care less loaning of school fnnrts, yet a check of ihe loans made In 192y, (he first yonr of his administra tion, will show a larger number of delinquent notes than the uverage for many years past. Of these loans made in 1U2S, when applying 'he same rule of delinquency an thai abP'lp'1 n 11,0 (102 notes, there are 70 now de linquent. Or, In other words, on which the Interest has not been paid at the end of six month. Therefore, It will nppear'that he has made no Improvement In loaning these funds. In the audit the following rec ommendation appears: "A slate administration of the treasury loan business can never he expected to ob tain the same security for ln veslnienlH Hint woubl be ob tained through Investing In Irrediiciil-le principal in souii'l well selected bondK. The ad mhiLslrution of ihe land hoard srcqrllh u. under such u plan could' be hp ml led Uiroqgh lh stato treasurer, with llnio or no added expense, uiul Hm- on person.' The majority of the hoard, therefore, would take from the farmer the opportunity of borrowing money rrmn the school board which has been in vumie ever since the state h! been ad mitted. This is the only fund which b always available lo the farmer from which to secure cheap money.' Kurt her, the stale receives fl per cent interest pn Ihese loans, while if the money was Invested lu irood bond. Ihey would not receive more than 4 per rent, so Ihoy have quite a niamtn to go on and will be ahead even Ihoiifth some losie are sua lahled. To show that (he estimate of losses which may be sustained by the school fund Is very greatly exaggiraied, one can tai;e me worst lial or notes which the state has. vly..: Mi notes on which the mortgages hve been roreclosed. Ihe record shows that the assess ed value of Ihcse loans are from 40 to r.0 per cent In exccus of th' amount which the state tins m them, Including delinquent Inter est and cost of foreclosure. Tho stale does not stand to lose heavy on them. Kor instance, in I hiker 'county, five loans which havo beep foreclosed cost Ihe state nil told $!Ti3. The assessed vidua of th'.u properly Is $K,RS0.' and the up pralHcd value $a(i,&i'0. and ovcry one knows that laud Is not n4iw ed at more than to or .: per cunt of Its value. In Malheur county, which is listed aH one of the worst count lo in Ihe state, eleven notes on which the stale has invested $21,172. assessed ut 31. tit. und Ib up- ItruU.Hl ul 177.0011, and so on through the list. Tho slate has already Hold IS farms on which ihey had fora chmcd. and on which they hav re ceived on an average o 40 per cent rush payment, and yel, none of thene fiirms have lloeii sold at a oss. Therefore, taking the worst loans which Un state has made, Ihey do nol stand to lose very great sums or money, as atl iii a ted by tlovernor rieivo und others. All talk to the orroot that Ihe treasurer will have to ceaso dls trlbutlng school funds to the dis tricts of the Hluie, on account ol these ImmeiiHn losses, is nothing more or lees than "bune" und tin statements arc made without uny foumfitou of fai-r.
