Millions
Of Impressions
That's what the more than 55,000 commercial printing jobs
done by FOWLER PRINTING COMPANY and its predecessor
in Interest add up to.
By Impressions ve mean the contact made on a printing
press with paper by inked type. One order lor two million
copies of a printed lorm, for instance, came to more than
330,000 impressions.
There are some other impressions that we think even more
important than these the impressions that our work leaves
with our customers.
We think these are good Impressions; at any rate most of
our customers come back. We like that, of course.
It you are not already one of our customers, give us a try.
We believe you'll get a good impression, too.
46 Indictments
Faced by Hodge
'. SPRINGFIELD, 111. (UP) Gov
ernment prosecutors today rushed
preparation of 46 indictments
against former State Auditor Or
ville Hodge for presentation Mon
day to the Sangamon County
Grand Jury.
1 State's attorney George P. Cout
rakon said he will ask the jury to
return indictments for embezzle
ment, forgery and operating a
confidence game. Coutrakon re
ported the former auditor had
made a "clean breast" statement
of a "huge conspiracy" involving
nearly $1 million in state checks.
The state's attorney went to
work on the indictments after quia
zing Hodge in a three-hour "tell
all" session.
When the meeting broke up,
Coutrakon told reporters, "This is
a huge conspiracy I can see
that now. There is a lot of money
involved."
Coutrakon said he had learned
of four new "questionable checks
amounting to $101,709. Earlier, At
torney General Latham Castle es
timated checks worth $800,000
were ' involved in . the scandal
Coutrakon's report boosted the
total to $901,709. '
'I'm sure there are a lot more
warrants missing than the 47 al
ready involved," Coutrakon said.
If true, this would push the sum
over the $1 million level.
