John Gordon has stood by tax payers and saved money for the state every day in the year. Always on the job, always at his desk, nothing gets by this watch dog of the treasury. He has saved more than, $800,000 in pruning illegal and padded accounts against the state, the people like this way of doing business. He has saved more than $750,000 in the collection of collateral inheritance tax. The people like this kind of service. There is no way to measure the en- ormous amount he saved the tax payers in preventing Gov. Hadley’s attempt to increase taxes. Missouri never had a more painstaking, care- ful and accommodating official than this man. He will be re-elected but should be without any opposition.
