Unander Says
Slate Cars -Lack

State Treasurer Ob
jects to 'Cloak and
Dagger' Investigators
Br JAMES D. OLSON
State Treunrer Sit Unander
Tuesday charted that many
state-owned can were being
operated without the seal of
the state oa the sides ot such
cars.
Unander said that there
were altogether too many
- "cloak and dagger investiga
tors running around the state.
In addition he charged that
many state can, by his own
observation, were being used
at night for social calls around
Salem.
His charges, made before the
board of control s weekly meet
: ing convened, were directed at
Harry Dorman, director of the
department of finance and ad'
ministration;
Dorman said that the only
cars excepted from a ruling
that the seal be displayed on
each side of the state cars, were
: those operated by. the state
parole board and the . state
liquor control commission. The
parole board, he said, must fre
quently run down parole viO'
lators and the liquor commis
sion cars in question are used
' by investigators, whose work
- would be nullified if identity ot
the cars were known.
Report Requested -
Dorman asked Unander to
report license numbers of any
cars he noted without the state
seal and the state treasurer as
sured him that he would do so.
"There are just too manj of
these cars without state seals
operated at the present time"
concluded Unander "and steps
should be taken immediately
to correct the situation."
