Consequently, the claimant has not been paid.\nWe have repeatedly held that:\n\u201cWhere claimant has rendered services or furnished supplies to the State on the order or request of an official authorized to contract for the same, and submits a bill therefor within a reasonable time, and due to no neglect or fault on the part of claimant, same is not approved and vouchered for payment before the appropriation from! which it is payable lapses, an award for the reasonable and customary value of the services or supplies will be made where at the time the expenditure was contracted there were sufficient funds remaining in the appropriation to pay for same.\u201d\nRock Island Sand Gravel Co. vs. State, 8 C. C. R. 165.\nIndividual Towel & Cabinet Service Co. vs. State, 6 C. C. R. 407.\nGrant Tire Co. vs. State, 7 C. C. R. 183.\nThe Attorney General admits that this claim falls within the rule and should be paid.\nAn award, therefore, in the sum of $44.20 in favor of Indian Motor Cycle Company, a corporation, is hereby approved.",
