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news that the county bad withdrawn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."
