CURTIS EXPLAINS HOW T0 IMPROVE CITY ACCOUNTING Modern Methods for Offce of, Town Clerk Recommended by Comptroller 'MORE HELP NEEDED IN PUBLIC WORKS OFFICE School Department Not As Com- plete As Desirable But Details Are Obtainable Books, From Comptroller's Hce says, Offering To Fur- nish Detalls, The need for mumcipal audits 1s ot great as is the need for a ystem of accounts in the office of the town clerk, increased personnel in the office of the department of | public works, and more complete | records in the school department, omptroller Hanford L. Curtis said today, commenting on the move started by Mayor Paonessa and en- dorsed by Chairman Edward . Hall of the board of finance and taxation Comptroller Curtis made it plain he has no objection to an audit in| addition to that which he makes in {connection with his worl, but he |pointed ¢ .t that causes other than [the absence of additional checking {up of the hooks have heen the isource of expressed dissatisfaction. | Disapproves of Thompson's Methods | In the case of the town clerk's of- |fice, the comptroller doubts whether 1 thorough andit can be made due l1o the absence of a modern system {of cash accounting. The methods {now pursued by Town Clerk Thomp- {son haia not the approval of Mr. Curtis since it is difficult, if not im-. possible, he said, to keep track of |transactions, and while the business of the department has increased no leffort has been made to have the| system expand correspondingly. He | favors dividing the work of the of- ‘[n e, leaving the detail of cash mat- [ters to one of Town Clerk Thomp- |son's assistants, or dividing other de- [tails so that the asaistants may re- {lieve the town clerk of much work that need not come under his per- |sonal supervision. More Help For Johnson | In the department of public works dissatisfaction has arisen from the act that sewer assessments have been found to be due for lengthy periods before demand for payment is made. Comptroller Curtis ex- | plains that the detail work of this office is 50 enormous that keeping up to current business has prevented | |Clerk George H. Johnson from |catching up on work that has slip- | ped behind, this in spite of the fact | {that Johnson frequently works {nights and even on Sunday. Until recently, according to Comptroller |Curtis, Johnson has not had assist- | ants qualified to aid him in many | important details. School Department Records With reference to the school de- partment, the comptroller finds rec- ords of past transactions are not as |complete as they should be. The missing detail is available through the comptroller's books, and he has offered to furnish it. | All checks of all departments are made out by the comptroller and in this fashion a running audit is kept, which s supplemented by quarterly auditing, the official ex- |plained today.
