and will again go through the prelim-

The bids were returned because the

the interest on the proposed bond issue
too low, insomuch as several paving
concerns had indicated that upon that
account they would not bid on Mos
cows paving.

STRA|GHTENS OUT
TANGLED BOOKS
Accountant Finds West Orange
Errors, Which Council
Orders Corrected.

To simplify the system of accounts In
the West Orange town administration
Martin A. Coughlan, a certified public
accountant, who has in charge an ex-
animation of town books dating back
from December 81, 1908, TO the end of
1911, has arranged n simplified plan OF
bookkeeping and auditing that will make
the auditor the final authority on receipts
and disbursements of the various OH
cials and departments, and with the ar
rival of the books from the printer there
will be a big saving of time. Mr.. Cough
Ian made the following report to Chair
man James II. B. Lehman, of the finance
committee, which indicates one error that
was ordered corrected by the Town Coun-
Gil at this weeks meeting:
while pursuing my examination of
the books and records of our town l
discovered the following irregularities
in the year 1909. Under date of March
81, 1909, on page seven of journal No. |
] find an entry crediting your sinking
fund with s13, 749.S4, and referring to
minutes of March I'd of same year as
the authority for making such entry. An
inspection of the minutes of March I'd,
| 1909, reveals the fact that the amount
authorized to be paid into the sinking
! fund on that date is IS. 1876. IS; this may
/, be verified by referring to page n OF
the minute book of said year; further in
| vestigation shows that neither amount
has ever been paid into your sinking
fund; but In December of same veal
the sum of SIG, $50 wal paid into said
fund in accordance with the avs OF
| 1908. chapter III, relating to sinking
funds. 1 would therefore ask and urge
your honorable committee and Town
| Council to take such action as you may
deem expedient SO as to enable me tC
make proper adjustment entries"
The resolutions passed by council pro-
vided that since the town has duly com
piled with the laws by paying the sun
of SIG, $50 into the sinking fund that the
resolution of March 2. 1909, directing tho
payment to the fund of s., 196. 65, as un'
expended balances, be r~escinded. An ad
ditional resolution was passed that tho
liability of $13, 1893 be transferred from
the sinking fund account to the credit
of unexpended balances, correcting the
original erro.
That the Irregularities were due to for.
mer audits and. not the present admins
tration is the opinion of Mayor Samue
A. Muta.
