First Four Steps In Budget Making;
How The Budget Is 4 Saver OF Money


TIE first step necessary On makiug
1 budget IS the preparation Of a
statement from each department OF
government showing what that de-
partment has done, during the past
year. and what 10 has cost This
statement becomes the basis upon
which the executive can report to the
legislature on what they voted them
According TO the best budgetary prac-
tice these reports are made IN open
legislative session. in order 10 give
the electorate accurate information
on their government This practice
Of having the executive before the
legislature In open session ls new in
our governmental ar-airs. 1t should
DO much in enforcing strict account
ability on the part Of executive
The next step IS to recommend from
each department as to what that de-
nartment shan undertake next year.
with a careful estimate Of cost This
gives each department head q say I'm
the tlrancile OF his own department.
and causes him % SIT down at the be-
ginuinE q each year and plan his
work Tor abe coming year m this
manner department heads are left "in
the dark VIXEN 30 comes 70 running
their departments
The Third step.
The third step is q financial state
meut showing revenues and ezpendi-
lures. debt and assets. surplus and
deficit. and an estimate OF the reTe-
nueE for the next year These state
nents enable the determination OF the
ability OF che government 20 spend
money for the next year. u IS an el-
fort 70 conform with the saying

business as in private business. but

strict adherence 10 it with benefit to

The fourth step IS the preparation

them up IS always irresistible among certain kinds Of
