Spring Filled Mattresses $9.95 and $10.95 Last minute allegations of mis handling of county funds In the Jackson CoUnty bank, by Sheriff Ralph G. Jennings, "write -In" candi date, were characteristic today by members of the county court and county officials, aa "campaign stuff," loosed In the final hour to inflame and Influence public opinion, par ticularly In the 'country districts. where charges involving county mon ey are a year-round subject of dis cussion. Commissioner Victor Bursell said today that no order was Issued by the county court, directing Sheriff Jennings to remove the sheriff office funds from the Jackson County bank, and that County Judge C. B. Lamkln and Commissioner John Barneburg concurred, that the sheriff should use his own Judgment, following a consultation. The county court felt at the time that the reports that the bank was "shaky" were untrue and that the news that the county bad withdrawn any funds would act as oil on flames. The amount Involved was $700, and after the bank closed the sheriff's office, as did other depositors, signed a waiver, as a matter of self-protection. Sheriff Jennings ssld today that the true facts had been grossly distorted, and that all possible pro tection for county funds had been taken by him, with the circulation of the reports last March. County Clerk Delllla S. Meyer said today that the records of -her office contained no order from the county court, directing the sheriff to re move the deposits. It was alleged by opponents of Sheriff Jenlngs that such an order hod been Issued. Members of the "Committee of 7000" said that the allegations were baseless, and that the canard was acting as a "boomerang." The "com mittee" further said that the canard waa regarded as such throughout most of the county, and was widely condemned for Its "vlclousness." County officials said this morning that all possible protection was as sured all county funds In the county banks. The origin of the Jennings canard was traced today, It wassald, to "two county officials and an orohardlst." WASHINGTON, Nov. 7.
