Post-Election Job in ArIinqton

Whatever changes todayS election NAV make
IN the membership of the Arlington County
Board, one of the first tasks of the board should
be careful study of the critical report lust
issued on the countys budget and accounting
system. The findings of the auditors indicate
an urgent need for more businesslike bookkeep-
Ing and budgeting methods in this booming
county
The Richmond auditing firms lengthy report
covered the fiscal year which ended June 80 last.
The auditors found that the countys account
keeping system has not kept pace with the COM
munitys remarkable growth-a growth that has
thrust upon the county the burden of larger
and larger operating costs and larger and larger
appropriations. AS result, spending has pro-
ceeded at pace faster than inadequate book
keeping methods can hope to equal. The County
Board therefore has not been able to have before
IL at all times full picture of the county's
nnances-a serious handicap in preparing budg-
cts and making appropriations that will conform
to budget estimates
The firm said that appropriation accounts
Tor construction projects have not been kept. this
neglect sometimes ending in discovery that esti-
mates of cost had been exceeded Supplemental
appropriations have been required to take care of
shese added costs, unbalancing budgets which
mad not been designed to meet the extra pay
ments. In this connection the report commented
mat supplemental appropriations were numer-
GUS and rather large in amount" and that in some
instances definite obligations or commitments
were made before the board had made appropria-
lions therefor This is haphazard and risky
way of running any business-and especially
business as large and important as the govern
ment of Arlington County
In brief, the auditors said, budget OPERA
tions have come to lag behind actual operations
Thus In practice, the cart has been put before
the horse and the budget has lost its value as
medium of financial and operating control
Various reasons were assigned for this situation.
including too centralized and overburdened &C
counting and Illustration and confusion" result

Tor comprehensive overhaul and modernization
OF Arlington's bookkeeping and budgeting pro-
cedures is plainly indicated The post-election
board should give this reform priority over
routine problems.

enforcing decisions which are not its
own.
5. Labor already has the advantage
of works councils, bodies of up to SO
persons. who represent the workers in
any given factory. Their key members
are relieved of their ordinary work but
are still kept on the company payroll.
The unions would do far better say their
critics, if they freed their works councils
of this company tieup and avoided in
volvement in the supervisory board and
the management board.
6. The labor representatives on a
supervisory board will not be able to
prevent the owners of any company
the shareholders-fro using their
profits to finance future Hitlers. The
best they can do is to vote dividends
and they can't even do that if the other
six members won't go along.
Labor has two big arguments on its
side:
The new supervisory boards give the
working people a sense of partnership
in industry, feeling that they belong"
In Germany this seems to be more i'm
portant than butter, even when the
partnership is phony one.
Revulsion against the old Ruhr barons
and their boards of directors led the
heavy industry workers of the Ruhr to
demand change. If it had not been
for the promise of co-determination, the
unions say, there would have been no
steel and no coal.
In any case this is tremendous ex-
pertinent and shrieks will be heard all
the way to Gary. Ind, if it fails.

of them have bit of private history they
could tell.
Brands are often heritage passed down
from generation to generation Sometimes
this heritage consisted of cattle empire
at others it may have been the "iron" alone
It's passing from father to son can be likened
to the passage of titles among the aristocracy
of foreign countries with its coat-of-arms
and other symbols.
The first brands were recorded in Mon
tana in the late 1905 or early 70s, following
the first brand law which became effective
in 1855. However, the brands recorded in
the first eleven pages Of the original brand
book carried no date All original records
were handwritten by the clerk of the SUI
preme court, Montana Territory.
Since 1911 brands have been re-recorded
every 10 years, this year being re-record-
had been recorded, probably little more than
half of those that will be recorded at the
end of the year
In 1949 some Sc, 900 Montana brands were
carried on the records. Contrary to popular
opinion, there are many brands that are the
same, they being issued to cattlemen in
different sections of the state. Re-recording
fees for brands are So and FOR transfers and
new brands Sc, according to Ralph Miracle,
executive officer of the Montana Livestock
commission and recorder of brands.
Brands, in the office Of the recorder of
brands at Helena, are cross-indexed by
name Of owner, by brand and by index
number, in a new system just inaugurated
by the Livestock commission, which utilizes
a modern addressograph machine and a
plastic plate on which the brand is engraved.
A master, handwritten file is also retained
Montana farmer-stockman., 1951-08-01

A BRAND CAN be made from many
things. Cowboys on the range have used,
among other things, latigo and neckyoke
rings, horseshoes, iron stirrups and just
plain iron rods.
When George R. Wilson was ready to
brand he borrowed frying pan from the
cook, heated it a cherry red and slapped
a steer in the ribs with it couple of times.
They called it the Two Dot brand, but, fry
ing pans being built for big crews in those
days, it looked more like a couple Of wash
tubs had hit those steers. 1t made very
legible mark but the cook howled to high
heaven.
There is probably no law against making
brand out of most anything at hand. Nor
is there a law against using said brand on
anything and everything your fancy dictates
except, and please note carefully, someone
elses livestock.
Swinging a makeshift branding iron
around free-like on the neighbor's livestock
is, and was, lucrative method Of enlarging
ones capital assets, but it's very dangerous
one. In the old days it generally meant either
cattle war or hanging, today it means a
grand larceny charge if you brand even the
smallest calf not your own.
cattle brand has often meant more
than just the iron it was made from. Its sign
or symbol beSpeakS pride of ownership, of
wealth and power and prestige. Time was
when a brand on SO many hundred or
thousand head of cattle was the only cri-
terion of wealth, and that feeling has carried
on for generations.

| Sharply criticizing Government

American Institute of Architects
today proposed a wide-scale dis
persal of major target areas in
the United States by creating new
towns in outlying parts of present
metropolitan areas.
The society has devoted the en-

a plan for redirecting new plant

Such plan. he wrote, "can re-
