Element of treasury accounts. A new
warrants system devised by them, will
require the signature of the secretary to
but from 10000 to 10000 warrants,
where heretofore the secretary and his
assistants had to sign 100, 900 or more
annually. The system of bookkeeping
and recording will gradually change in
some of the accounting offices, especially
in the first auditors and second comp
troller's offices, where it is believed the
record can be kept with one-fourth the
labor formerly required, and a large CON
solidation of accounts has been made
by which the number of warrants will
be still further reduced, with a consid-
cradle curtailment of the clerical labor
of signing, checking, recording and
filing. The total abolition of copying by
hand into the record books of all letters
written is recommended.
