E. McCullough, president of th commission appointed to make' a report on building associations and a proposed law regulating them, returned home to day. He was engaged in court, and said be could not find time to the ft part that had been made and the objections that had been raised on the score Inaccuracy. The resident members of the commission In a general way stand by their and say that with thij exception of perhaps one or tvfo the alleged errors are wholly due to tba bad book keeping of the complaining associations; that these associations have themselves furnished to the Auditor, the statements from which the commission, made figures. 1 The Auditor of State says that his office fcaa had nothing to do with the report of the commission beyond opening 'the books and showing the statements filed by the' association.

At the Auditor's office It was slated that Inquiries were coming Irj'con cerning these associations, the inquirers being frightened by the report of tha committee. Some associations are complaining of lnacuracies In the report, and monj those making complaint are the Indiana Savings Investment Company, the! Plymouth Building an3 Loan, the Chitel States Savings Fund and Investment Company, the Union Mutual and the German American. The figures. said Deputy Bingham. J'were made by J.

In another case ILTOO returned from the expense fund 0 withdrawing membirs was counted as an expense.

This made considerable differ er.ee In a calculation of the average cf xpense and receipts. The commission made those figures from the reports themselves.
