report, decided TO recommend that he

tenn The question of leaving the new
system TO be devised by Nicholas
Grieser, who has just been appointed
city accountant, was suggested, but
the aldermen decided that Grieser
will be too busy getting used TO his
new work to devise any bookkeeping
system for aw lille.
Some OF the aldermen commented
adversely on the failure of n. A. Haw-

that Ralph Hollis. who was hired TO
do the original investigating OF the

to tell what-his instructions were in
making his audit.
Several aldermen confessed that
they had gone over their private books
since they had been at work looking
over the ID. p. w. books and had found
they had paid some bills twice.
Beck stated in his report that the
business OF the department OF public
works aggregated s2.525.000 last year.
Some OF this is In the way OF work
