CITY AUDITING
PLAN CHANGED
New Bookkeeping System
to CentraIize All
Expenditures.

Heads of all boards and depart
ments in the city administration
were instructed Wednesday in use
of the new system of bookkeeping
and accounting installed Jan. in
the purchasing department.
THE purpose of this new system
is to get an accurate account Of all
expenditures and liabilities as they
are created" Mayor Reginald Sulli-
van told the heads in a meeting
Wednesday.
Under the new system, no mer-
chandise will be purchased unless
there is requisition on file in the
purchasing department.
Through this system, all depart
mental expenditures will be GEN.
tralized and it will simplify the
compilation of the city budget,
Mayor Sullivan said.
This modern bookkeeping system
was advocated by The Times sew
eraI months ago in a series of ar
ticleS explaining how the tax rate
could be kept down through ap-
plication of business methods in
municipal government.
The old system had been in ex-
istence for more than twenty-five
years.

100000 Hospital, Topic
Before Flower Mission
How to Realize on Its
$4,000 Frozen Assets
Is Problem.

Construction plans for a 100000
tuberculosis hospital, which would
care for patients not receiving
proper disqualification, were being
considered at a meeting today Of
the Indianapolis Flower Mission So
ciety directors.
Mrs. David Ross, president, and
Mrs. James D. Ermston, chairman
of the project committee, hope to
interest a group of citizens in I'M
derwriting the frozen assets.
amounting to $4,000
In addition they expect a federal
public works grant of $4,000 to add
to their cash assets, 100000 The
government has refused to accept
the $4,000 as collateral for loan
because of the large number of
similar requests. However, if the
100000 cash can be reased, the $780,
600 request will be given prompt at
tention, Otto P. De Luse, Indiana
PWA advisory chairman, said.
If the frozen assets can not be
liquef1ed, the society would be will
ing to turn the funds over to the
city for construction Of the hospital
on the city hospital grounds.
Should group of persons pro-
vide the $4,000 in cash, it has been
proposed that trusteeship be Gre
ated and the assets turned over to
them as they were converted into
cash.
Mrs. E11nston said that she had
received pledges from several
wealthy men who would be willing
to assist in the project.

Candidates Called For, but
Examination Means
Little.

The Office Of Indianapolis post
master, now held by Adolph Seiden-
sticker, theoretically is open, but
actual Wis politically closed.
Candidates for The postmastership
have been invited by the United
States civil service commission to
file applications by Jan. %.
The examination, however, merely
is q matter Of form, since it is
understood that MI. Seidensticker,
who was named acting postmaster
last September at the behest of
Senator Frederick Van Mugs, will
be given permanent appointment
if he meets the civil service re-
quirements, which are not very
rigid.
There viii be no written ex-
animation. The civil service COM
mission merely will investigate all
applicants and turn over to Post
master General Farley the names of
the three applicants receiving the
highest rating. One Of the three
then will be named postmaster.

not appear among the three with

Mannish
Girl DonS Male Attire and
Airs-Vanishes.

A PRETTY blond girl, about Is,
IN entered the Powder Puff
beauty shop, 81 East Ohio street,
yesterday afternoon. A short time
later she emerged clad in corduroy
trousers, jacket and low heeled
shoes with close cropped hair and
masculine stride.
Asking permission to change her
clothes in the shop after having
a haircut, the girl casually told
employees that whatever she had
left behind be turned over to
charity.
Staring with amazement as the
girl swung out of the shop, the
employees hurried back into the
dressing room and found a
woman's coat, slippers, galoshes,
am-o-shanter, scarf and purse.
In the purse was a mirror with
the initials, NJ r., inscribed upon
it. Police investigated.
After bidding blithe farewell,
the girl was last seen staggering
west on Ohio street.

ATTACK WORDS
OF ROOSEVELT
Suggestion of Legislative
and Executive Union
Under Fire.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.-Presi-
dent Roosevelts declaration con-
corning a stronger tie between the
legislative and executive branches
of the government was seized
upon today as the chief point of
Republican attack upon the Presi-
dents annual message to congress.
While a non partisan spirit of
cooperation in pushing through re-
covery measures was indicated as
congress convened yesterday, some
Republican leaders found something
about which to express themselves
in Mr.. Roosevelt's closing words.
Senate Minority Leader Charles
L. McNary likened the Presidents
statement to a repeal of the Con
Stitution.

Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd
has wiped 100000 miles OF territory
off Antarctic maps in two dangerous
seaplane flights, and remarked them
as part of the Pacific ocean.
In the second flight yesterday
Admiral Byrd flew along the 117th
Meridian Of longitude to 1890 de-
greeS south latitude He covered
this time by observation about So
600 square miles. AS on his first
flight two weeks ago, he found that
what was marked as ice covered
land was ocean.
Byrd left the water from a lake
in the ice, during a light snow and
in unfavOrable weather generally.
On his flight, of two hours forty
seven minutes duration, he passed
an iceberg which he estimated as
twenty-five miles long and four
miles wide.

M. E. Tracy
Says

A MOTHER mile post passed on
"A the road between two eterni-
ties. We think we know what lies
behind because we can count a few.
Those ahead remain to be set,
which is one reason why we can't
figure out the future.
Some people say that we state the
problem back-end foremost; that
it's the future which lies behind,
while the past is ahead. They ar
que that train leaving at in
the morning is bound to be ahead
of one leaving at in the afternoon
and that, on a similar basis of reaS-
oning, the fourteenth century is
bound to be ahead of the twentieth.
Maybe they are right, but no one
has returned from either direction
to prove it. We have little choice
but to go on measuring the ground
already covered, or such part of it
as has been covered since men &C
quired the art OF measurement.
l use the word art" advisedly, be-
cause our system of reckoning time
is too primitive and haphazard to
be called g science. If there is one
ox-cart tradition from which we
have proved unable to free ourselves
it is the moth-eaten Julian calen-
dar.
VOU simply can't divide a month
l. into weeks without getting
fractions, or a year into months
without irregularity. If nature had
been operated on such a system, the
universe would have disappeared
through traffic accidents long ere
this.
We hold on to the calendar, not
because it represents good arithme-
tic or good sense, but because papa
did it that way" There isn't any
other explanation for the childish
complacency with which we tolerate
such a hodge, odge.
Introduction of the metric system
is the most permanent, If not the
most important triumph of the
French revolution. Must we wait
for a similar upheaval to reform the
calendar?
The calendar Is just a matter of
human convenience, you know. The
sun would rise if We didn't have
one, and the moon go through her
phases. That being so, why not
make it as convenient for ourselves
as possible?
Considering the radical changes
we are making in other fields, doesn't
it strike you as rather queer that
we should be so Indifferent, stub
born or reactionary regarding the
measurement of time?
TTOW can we be so hot for econ
l. l. omy or shortcut methods and
overlook that bet?
Like any other fashion, our nber-
alism runs to ruts. We can quarrel
violently with the past over some
things, yet suffer ourselves to be
gagged by it with respect to others.
Just now, we are worked up over
codes. We have formulated couple
of hundred already and look upon
the job as no great achievement. 1t
probably would take less time and
trouble to figure out a scientific cal
endar than it did to write the gar
ment workers code. Neither would
you have to take the calendar to the
supreme court to find out whether
it was constitutional
If our professors and educators
really want to help the kids along
a little faster, they should give some
attention to this problem.
