Closing time torTooLati, to u:y Ad Is 130 p. m. By PAUL W. HARVKY, Jr. SALEM, July 33. (API State Treasurer Rufus C Holman, who has been trying to stop, what he termed "looting the school fund." said to day he baa had considerable suc cess. He said the "looting" bas been going on (or years, but that there has been no serious effort to atop It. But the form o( "looting" which Holman has been successful In check ing Is "pillaging of estates" left by persons who die without heirs. He said administrators, lswyera and un dertakers have taken excessive fees out of these estates, which go Into the common school fund, so that little Is left (or the state. One of the most unusual cases oc curred this week when the state re celved 3890 out of the 33900 estate left by a man who died tn a state Institution. Holman acted aa admin latrator and the attorney general aa attorney, both serving without fees. The only expenses were 35 (or publishing a notice to creditor!, and 30 tor publishing a notice of hearing on the final account. About I860 went to the general fund for the patient's care at the institution. The rest went to the school fund. .. ' Holman Bald the case was not typical, because he could not be so successful In the case of a person who did not die in a state Institu tion. Many times, he said, admlnlatra tlve expenses, attorney's fees. (u. nerai expenses and other expenses eat up the entire estate. In almost all cases, Holman asserted, these fees and expenses are excessive. Body of CCC Boy To Be Sent Home The body of Oeorge W.
