Welfare Board Chief
Opposes Suggested
Organization Plan

Strong criticism OF q suggested
plan OF organization OF the business
activities Of the Public Welfare
Board" by Frank M. Gray. business
manager of the board. has been
lodged with the Commissioners by
Arthur r. Pilkerton, District auditor,
who urged the Commissioners to re-
ject the plan.
Mr.. Gray's plan was submitted
a month ago and the Commissioners
named Budget Oficer Walter L.
Fowler, Mr.. Pilkerton and Byers M.
Bachman OF the assessors ONCE to
study the plan. No announcement
OF the appointments was made at
that time.
Would Integrate Activities.
In his plan, dated May Q, Mr.. Gray
said he proposed ito integrate the
business activities Of all agencies Of
the board" and establish business
Office. He predicted that central
ization Of business activities would
save suficient personnel at the vari-
Gus agencies and institutions to
"cover the expenses" Of the business
office.
Mr.. Gray said his review of well
fare activities indicates there is not
sufficient information accumulated
and compiled. currently of agency
operations for the board adequately
to control Its internal operations and
present a positive approach in COM
munity planning"
Mr. Pilkerton, who said the plan
would call for 10 or Is additional
bookkeepers and clerks, said that
"as no accounting forms have been
submitted and the auditor has not
been requested to prepare forms, it
is difficult to understand how the
system can be put into effect July /.
1t is one thing to write a plan of
procedure or system and another
thing to put it into effect"
Would Handicap Heads.
Superintendents of institutions,
who are generally bonded. would not,
under the plan, be in position to
adequately control, give or receive
counsel without contracting the busi-
ness manager and will not be pos
sessed Of facts with which to in
teligently justify the institutional
needs before the Commissioners and
the committees in Congress" Mr..
Pilkerton added.
The auditor said the establish
ment of an expanded accounting
system in an Office substantially
removed from the parties individ-
ually responsible for the mainte-
nance of the activities would make
it necessary that there be COM
plete duplication of the accounting
work and take away from the super
intendents and others at the insti-
tuition financial control and data
which are absolutely necessary to
properly conduct the affairs of the
institution"

borne said. I'VE have made no
doubt many mistakes, but out of our
experience and that of other colonial
powers, there have gradually been
evolved certain principles. We be-
lieved that the time had come when
these principles could be codified in
a general declaration for the guild
ance of ourselves and other colonial
powers and for the information of

I'm every area, whether back

Need Helping Hand.
4 honor Gen. Rumulos sincerity
and the eloquence with which he
pleaded the cause of Independence
but do not believe that the situa-
ton is so simple as it appears. Many
OF those territories are small, poor
and defenseless and need helping
hand. Take away that helping
hand and such territories woulc
rapidly relapse into barbarism.
What we can give them is liberty
and free institutions. We can grad.
ually train them in the management
Of their own affairs, so that. should
independence ultimately come, they
will be ready for it.
That is the essence of the provi.

raj evolution in cases where it is
