Mr.. President and Members.

Il once heard water superintend.
ent remark tnat he had the best water
system and most economical plant in
the state and upon being asked the
cost of water delivered to the con
sumer, had no idea what 1t was, and
did not know even the approximate
cost of operation and maintenance of
Ea single department of his system.
This may be an unusual case but It
serves TO illustrate the necessity of
accurate records and | should not be
greatly surprised If similar instances
are not numerous where modern ac-
counting systems have not been in
stalled
IL the water used for fire hydrants,
street sprinkling and other depart
ments of the city government is not
paid for out of their respective funds,
reasonable rate can be fixed and
credit taken on the books and where
sinking and interest is not paid out of
revenues but by tax levy this should
be charged against the business. and
by comparison of these various debts
and credits or by results as shown by
the balance sheet, information can be
secured which will be beneficial in fix
ing a Just and equitable rate to charge
the water users which should always
be based on the actual cost of running
the plant after all things are consid-
cred in connection Herewith.
"The system of accounting should
not be too complex but should be so
simple that the ordinary bookkeeper
can comprehend and keep them after /
they are once started. This caution
should be especially observed in the |
smaller towns where expert help can
not be obtained on account OF limited
finances The most modern system in
the world unless understood and kept
in a business-like manner is no bet
ter than any other method.
In Oklahoma the State Corporation
Commission has prescribed uniform
of accounting for private
corporations such as gas companies,
electric companies, railroads, etc, and
see no reason why they should not
10 the same thing for municipal utili-
les. If this would be a good thing,

The subject being one of detail the
