Description
Editorial from The Baltimore Sun, 2 July 1950, the day after the death of Comptroller James J. Lacy. The editorial outlines Lacy's accomplishments in office: --Lacy was the first comptroller to initiate an "effort to catch State income-tax dodgers." The effort was ongoing and successful. --Lacy set up a special division to collect the sales tax. --Lacy set up a "series of improvements in the monthly and annual financial statements issued by the comptroller's office," making it easier for state officials to keep track of the state's money.
