these facts for general information that nobody will be
justified to perssenty dwell and complain about expenses
The superintendent knows what he is supposed to do and
being very well of expenses he is trying to
amount at least equivalent to his salary.
When all this is clear and herewith verified would
ask those in responsible positions when they publish their
reports to reveal the they audit the bills and
know the exact status of the CFU but not to make their
derng money enrching himself thus suggesting those
nsnuations that appear in our official organ Something
rotten in Denmark Sincere control should be exercised
but without personal ofense which be tolerated
forever.
Our Possessions
In connection with our expenses wish to emphasize
this: few years ago possessions appraised at
something between $85 900 to $200O0O Due to the find
ings of the Investigating Committee, this appraisal was
arranged and all that caused higher value This could

Before And Today
There are comments that present expenditures
comparatively higher than those days when there

From the first day that took in 1852, noticed
many Irregularities. sought to make changes in the
but did not succeed But finally everything was
improved and today, proved above receive more

The superintendent and the Committee are doing their
best order to completely control and the
affairs of the Home in performing their duties they are
very often negectul of their time Therefore, nobody
needs give advice to conscience tells us and
our bylaws direct watch and We don't need
