Fenton Sure of Vindication. Mr. Fenton, town clerk and treasurer for 31 years, was replaced in October by Harold C. Lincoln, Republican. His only statement regarding the results of the audit has been one of confidence that he would be finally vindicated.

Mr. Fen ton's bond prior to 1929 was $10,000 and was increased In that year to $36,800. It was pointed out by Dr. Wilcox tonight that study will have to be made to determine whether the bond in each year in question covers the alleged amount of shortage in that year. Under the new bonding law of 1927 an annual bond is required to cover liability during each 12-moiHhs period.

Prior to that, bonds were renewed from year to year. Any shortage that may be incomplete and utterly lacking in control." The records, the reiwrt said, "were not even good memoranda." Blodgett's Criticism. State-wide attention, in the meantime, had been focused on the Willl-mantic situation by a sharp criticism from State Tax Commissioner Blod-gett who found discrepancies in the town's annual report of indebtedness. Selectman Buck some months before, in a public statement, had compared the town debt to a "rolling snowball," ever increasing, and the Tax Commissioner's letter revealed that the debt was greatly in excess of the amount given in the report. The town, it was revealed, had for several years failed to raise enough money by taxation to cover its disbursements and had continued to borrow, largely from individual lenders at WOm Preparations In millions of homes, every membrr of the family look over, he replied "Yes," then hastened to correct himself.

"I can' say about that," he added. He ad-mtted that the facts would be made known to the public eventually but. declined to say anything furthe: "for the present." The first selectman received the report from Mr. Musgrave person-ally at 3 o'clock this afternoon. The other selectmen did not receive copies, and Mr.

French said that a meeting of the three would be called to study the completed figures. The members of the special committee, headed by Dr. George E. Wilcox, Taxpayers Protective Association under Dr. Wilcox as the force behind the move.

A town meetiivj voted eventually to authorize the audit and appropriated $10,000 for the Job. The special committee selected the Musgrave firm and the old board of selectmen, then headed by William A. Buck, refused to sign the contract, claiming that other firms would do the work for less. The audit committee finally prevailed and the work began. In the preliminary report made to Mr.

Euck. who became third fclect-man in the October election, the Musgrave firm described the town's accounting system as "inadequate.
