First Comptroller Under Bud
get System Will Stop Ac
count Juggling.
Washington. May 20. J. R. Mt
Carl, former law partner of Senator
George W. Norris of Nebraska and
now comptroller under the new bud
get law, has evolved a new system
of accounting for the government
which, he believes, will enable the
government to maintain a more ac
curate check on expenditures and
receipts. ,
Mr. M:CarIs system provides that
the accounts show the disburse
ments by objects. Heretofore it has
been the custom to report expen
ditures in a lump sum. Under Mr.
McCarl s system, it will be possible
to determine just how. much was
spent for ink, how much for pencils
how much for paper, etc., and will be
difficult for the government agencies
to juggle their accounts.
This system ot accounting will De
tandardized so the weekly and
monthly reports from the various de
partments will show just how much
of the various supply articles is be-
purchased.
.fr.-McCarl is the first comptrol
ler under the budget system and is
aooointed for a term of IS years.
This young Nebraskan commenced
his political career in McCook. tie
