CHARGED T 0 J, J.
Commissioner Is Charged With
- Wasting Money on Useless
& Inspectors in State
DALLAS, GA.—Speaking here
Monday in the Paulding county court
house, A. 0. Blalock, formerly col
lector of internal revenue in Geor
gia, now a candidate for commis
sioner of agriculture against J. J.
Brown, severely scored what he term
ed ‘“the scandalous extravagance of
Commissioner Brown at a time when
the agricultural interests he is sup
posed to represent are struggling
against hard time sand adversity.”
“Commissioner Brown has loaded
the payroll of the department of ag
riculture with members of his own
family,” declared Mr. Blalock. “He
has appointed his son as a “bee in
spector’ at a salary of $l5O a month
and a liberal expense account, What
Sort of inspection work he does, no
body knows or can find out. If he
1s supposed to inspect the drones,
he ought to do some inspecting in
the department of agriculture, which
has the largest assortment of dropas
féirei‘ gotteii together in Georgia. Hel
has appointed two other sons and a
nephew to nice, easy jobs at nice, fat
salarizs, _
_ “Duting the Wonth of July when
there wag practically no fertilizer
moving in Georgia, he dpproved ex
pense accounts of $l,BOO for his fer
tilizer inspectors. Of course they
were inspecting fertilizer. They
were beating the bushes for Comis
sioner Brown and the taxpayers were
paying ‘their msafaries and expense
accounts. ‘
“One of Commissioner Brown’s in
spectors is here today in this au
dience. Everywhere Igo I find one
of them following me. The gentle
man here today draws $250 a month.
His inspection work here today con
sists of inspecting me and reporting
to general headquarters. I will ven
ture the assertion that the expense
of his trips are to be paid by the
state. If I am in error, I would like
for him to correct me. I do not blame
him for accepting appointment and
drawing his salary. I blame Com
missioner Brown for appointing so
many useless inspectors at a time
when the people are burdened by tax
ation. \
“Commissioner Brown is paying'
negro porters in the state capitol as
high as $B5 a month, and he has
about six on his payroll. Their du
ties consist in shining the shoes of
the commissioner and his staff, car
{y-ing them ice water, and putting
etters in the mail box about fifty
feet from the commissioner’s office.
“Inspectors, appointes and employes
are so thick in the department of
agriculture that they get in one an
other’s way. They tramp all over
one another like too many calves in a‘
lot or too many pigs in a pen.
“The department of agriculture is
spreading the report that I am op
posed to the market bureau bulletin.
I am not opposed to"it, but I favor
putting in it some information of
substantial value regarding general
crops.
“The market bureau had a grand
oportunity to demonstrate its use
fulness in the past few weeks when
watermelons and cantaloupes were
rotting in the fields or sold to pay
freight in gdlutted markets. Why
didn’t the bureau find a market for
these crops which ought to have
brought our state hundreds of thou
sands of dollars?”
