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.
