Burbank i3 incom-j petent and inefficient, according to the report of Quincy A. Willis, for mer deputy Btate treasurer, whose report on the condition of the treas urer's office was made public to the executive council Friday. The re port says in part: "I don't attempt to fix responsi bility, but there is much evidence that unmistakably speaks of Incom petence and inefficiency in both management and execution. With proper supervision and directions no such regard as is found would be possible." Mr. Willis lists five charges indi cating inefficiency in the treasurer's office and includes in his report a large number of exhibits to back up the charges. One of the charges relates to the drawing of money from one bank and depositing it in another bank by means of counter checks. In commenting on this practice of Treasurer Burbank the examiner says that such a practice would en able an individual to draw large sums of money from each of several i depositories and depart on an extend ed vacation. Another charge made by Mr. Wil lis is that Treasurer Burbank has drawn large sums from other Dea Moines banks and deposited them in j the Des Moines National bank, with the result that this bank at one time had $1,237,851.44 out of a to tal of state deposits of $5,265,611.00 or about one-fourth of the state's funds.
