With the exception of the office
of City Clerk Bickford not single
depa artment of the city government
of the city of Virginia escaped
criticism in the report of Mellis-
Pirie & Co., chartered accountants
who recently completed an audit OF
the books of the city, filed few
dave ago and read at the regular
meeting of the council on Tuesday
evening.
Lax methods Of bookkeeping are
charged to some departments, while
errors in accounting are reported
in others and considerable changes
are indicated as desirable in num-
Der of cases. While the report con-
tains in general much criticism OF
the business methods in vogue in
city departments none of the state
ments touch the integrity Of any Of
the city servants or employees. In
some instances, however, efficiency
il apparently questioned. Recom-
mendations for improved methods
of bookkeeping are made and
direliCtion in the payment OF GER
tain orders for small amounts is
given attention. 1t is recommend
ed that the practice OF allowing
patrolmen to act as process servers
for local attorneys be discontinued,
that the rate of interest on city
funds in local Repositories be z per
cent on current accounts and that
an investigation OF the rates charg-
ed by the newspapers Of the city for
legal publications be investigated.
The report is made from the rec
ords and investigation will no
doubt disposed some Of the matters
to which attention is called in
manner that will satisfactorily clear
up all the questions involved
This is true of matters affecting the
health department, the city deposit
aries. the park and library boards
and the city printing account. In
the latter case it is recommended
that the members of the council
inform themselves as to what con-
stitutes a folio, the system by
which legal publications are meas
ured. The term folio is clearly de-
fined by state law, as are the rates
tn he charped for legal publications
aud for the service given the rate
charged for legal publications in
Virginia is lower than that ct cities
like Hibbing, Chisholm, Buhl and
other towns on the range. Local
publishers court the fullest invest

measurements are computed and
