It la becoming more and more apparent . i . tit-.A x,.mftistnv Rmrd IS dissatisfied, not only with the opera tion Or ine law ot ina tail creating that Board, but with C. D. Fraser. Its present secretary. Thera Is a possibility of -change belnsr made in that position within tfce next few weeks. Members of tha Board .practically have reached the conclualon that .the new law la not a money-saving propo sition. In the first place an appro priation of 17500 for the two years to handle tha worK of the State Purchas ing Board eats Into what profits might be made under the new arrange ment. Out of this 17600 the Btate Board has to pay the aecretary, who Is sometimes called the State Pur chasing Agent, an annual salary of tl&OO a year. This salary Is consid ered too high by some of the mem bers ot the Board for the amount of work that la dona and for the savins; accomplished. Havlag la Denktfal. Vp to now It la doubtful whether any having has been accomplished, and If so. It has not been pointed out either to the Board or by the Board. In fact, the members. 'as they have more and better opportunity of seeing the law operate, are convinced It la not economlcaL A sentiment la arising among those on the Board to replace the present secretary with a clerk at a reasonable salary to handle the clerical detail of the board, take charge of advertise ments and other routine Incidentals. Thla Is practically all that tha sec retary of the Board Is called upon to do. In addition to conferring with superintendents of the various insti tutions, and the Board la under the Impression now that the superintend ents are In a better position to out-" line their needs. Shaken Is "are. A definite orflclal conclusion haa not been reached by the body as to whst course will be pursued, but In dividual members are not backward lu expressing their opinion. This waa an administration meas ure which went through the Legisla ture In opposition to the Bowerman H1L which called for a general com missary for all the institutions. Mem bers of the Board express the opinion that neither of the plans would work out satisfactorily and are Inclined to think that the old system Is preferable. The results of the difficulty un doubtedly will be a ahakeup aa far aa the aecretary's office Is concerned and there Is every probability that a new clerk will be hired, unless there Is a sudden change of heart among the members of the Purchasing Board.
