Opinion filed November 12, 1930.

Scanlan & Massieon, for claimant.

Oscab E. Cablstbom, Attorney General; Boy D. Johnson, Assistant Attorney General, for respondent.

Mr. Chief Justice Clabity

delivered the opinion of the court:

This is a claim for back salary for acting as Industrial Officer and Chairman of the Industrial Commission of the *452State of Illinois. It appears that there is no objection on the part of the defendant as to the legality of the claim and that the amount claimed $562.50, is admitted to be mathematically correct in a letter from the State Auditor to the Attorney General.

Therefore the court recommends that the claimant be allowed the sum of $562.50.
