Expense Audit Failed to Show Expendi- tures Law Provides for, Moris Explains George Moris, state regulatory chief, ‘Monday declared an audit of his de- partment showing more than 91 per cent of income expended in adminis- tration: during .the past three years was “unfair, because it failed to show expenditures we are forced to make by law, for which we receive no fee return.” He declared “more than $170,000 has been turned over by this department wince it was established in 1933, to two other departments—the motor vehicle and income tax departments.” “Of this amount, collected in fees directly as a result of inspection work by the state regulatory department, we have not received a cent, with ex- ception of $10,000 transferred early in the term of Steve TerHorst,” Moris asserted. Moris said he had attempted “on several occasions to obtain a transfer of at least a portion of these receipts to the regulatory, but thus far with- out si . Cost $79,209.92 Costs of collecting the amounts for the motor vehicle and income tax de- partments amounted to $79,209.92, during the entire period, Moris said. “These costs of inspection are levied against us in the audit report, and naturally raise the percentage of ex- penditure for operation,” Moris ex- plained, “but on the other hand, no credit is given us for the amount of income derived to the state as a re- sult of these tions. “In addition to the costs of inspec- tion for the motor vehicle and income tax department, we were also forced to expend $6,466 for dairy inspection work, fees from which went to that de- partment, and not to us,” Moris ex- plained. “Since March of this year, this inspection work has again been placed under the commissioner of ‘agriculture and labor.” Not Revenue Agency Primarily, Moris declared the regu- latory department was an enforcing Regulatory Unit's Defended and service agency, and not one es- tablished essentially for revenue. “We have more than a dozen laws to enforce—many of which require expenditures for inspection work out ot which come no fees,” Moris as- serted. Grocery store inspection for health and sanitation “scoring”; inspection of wells in communities to determine the condition; sanitary inspection of slaughter houses, “and many other types of sanitation inspection are re- quired of us, for which no fees are charged,” Moris said. Cites Other Expenses : In addition, checking of foods ai the state laboratory and similar lab- oratory activities required by law but for which little or no fees are return- able to the department are charged against the operations account of the regulatory department, Moris said. He said that since March of this year, the regulatory department, through motor vehicle inspectors, have collected a total of $53,901 in local license’ and other feeds; $14,377 in foreign license fees and commercial truck fees and permits of $9,587. “This was done at an inspection cost to the department during the period of $15,630,” Moris said. “We don’t get a dime of this cost back, although we are attempting to now.” Transient Camps to Have Own Milk Cows North Dakota transients will ob- tain milk from cows cared and tended by them, C.
