The Woods, Gordon Report on civic ent released by the Oshawa City Council last Monday contained a number of recommendations geet the treasury department. Following is the first part of the section dealing with the "The treasury has in the past been a catch-all for a number of small operations and at pres- ent includes maintenance of the Civic Administration Building and purchasing, @s well as tax collection and accounting. "We have recommended else- where that the responsibility for building maintenance should be transferred ary activities would then be en- concerned with financial and cash collection. * "We recommend further that ®> far as possible all financial and cash records should be con- the treasrer is the preparation of the annual budget and pro- vision of financial advice to other members of the city ad- ministration. We ppiare that an important part this advice should be the provision of monthly operating statements, and a comparison against bud- get. Procedures for this purpose are suggested later. Procedures associated with the vial ac- counting and tax collection oper- ations are also dealt with in de- tail later in this section. We pro- pose no change in their organ- ization. "Parking meter and parking lot attendants report at present to the assistant treasurer. We understand that moving them to the engineer's department has been considered, on the grounds that the latter department al- ready paves the lots and installs the meters, besides being re- sponsible for the similar activ- ities of road maintenance. and traffic signs. "We do not agree with this argument. Once the parking lots are established no further. time of the engineering staff is re- quired for their operation, which is basically one cash collec- tion. If this cash collection is the direct responsibility of the assistant treasurer rather than another department, there is one less stop between the meter and the bank. This, in turn, means less work and greater security of city funds. "In addition to a secretary, the treasurer has an "assistant to" at the present time. We understand that this situation is primarily a matter of personal- ities and that the city is not in- convenienced by the arrange- ment, which will in time be dis- continued, Under these circum- stances we propose no change, MONTHLY STATEMENTS "At the» p tual expenditures are prepared by the treasury staff for either individula departments or for the council. The only interim statement of revenue and ex- penditure prepared, at present, is that for the nine months end- ing Sept. 30. This statement shows the current year's esti- mate, the expenditures to Sept. 30 and the balance of the esti- mate remaining unspent. In- cluded with the statement is a report from the treasurer e x- plaining the major differences between estimate and actual. "The nine-month statement for last year was dated Nov. 16, which means it was too late to be of much value for control purposes either to the depart- ment heads or to the council, "In order to maintain some financial control over their' operation, we understand that certain department heads have members of their staff visit the treasury and copy progress costs from the treasury records. Operating statements are then Prepared within the depart- ments concerned, "For example, the board of health staff borrow both paid and unpaid invoices from the treasury to prepare a monthly summary. The city engineers staff prepare an operating state- ment every two weeks.

Medical Care Insurance welfare staff, on the other hand, keep sufficiently detailed rec- ords to prepare their own monthly statement. EFFECTIVE CONTROL "We consider regular monthly reports of operating costs in comparison with budget to be essential for effective manage- ment control by department heads and that a consolidated statement should be provided to the council each month. "The information from which statements are compiled is al- ready kept by the treasury staff, who are also the most familiar with this kind of work. The citys interest will be served best if the operating statements are prepared by the treasury, since extra transcription will be avoided, duplicate records will be eliminated and greater se- " records will be "Reports should show actual expenditures for the current month, total expenditure for the year to date, and the budget estimate for the month and year to date. "'We consider that the present practice of comparing actual year-to-date figures with the total estimate is of limited value, and that for satisfactory comparisons both actual and estimate figures should repre- sent the same period of time. "For this purpose we récom- ment that in the future esti- mates be broken down by months ih order to show month and year-to-date estimates on the monthly statements. ESTIMATE BREAKDOWN "One way of breaking down the estimates into months would be a study of the distribution in previous years. Under this method it would be necessary to calculate for each month the Percentage of the year's total expenditure in each account, This should be done for the pre- ceding two or three years. By use of an average figure over two or three years the distor- tion due to an abnormal situa- tion in any one year would be minimized. In order to keep these percentages up to date, as each year's figures become available, the percentages for the latest year should be added and those for the earliest year dropped, and the average cal- culated, ae "When the annual budget has been approved the average per- centages should be applied to the total budget figure for each account, and a set of budget figures developed for use in the monthly comparison statements. PREPARED IN ADVANCE "The monthly and year-to- date budget figures for each de- partment will be known as soon as the council has approved the budget. This part of the monthly operating statement can, there- fore, be prepared well in ad- \vance at any convenient time, as an off-peak activity. The ac- tual figures would then be enter- ed on these budget statements each month by treasury staff as soon as possible after the month's end. The procedure could be set up as part of the regular monthly trial balancing of general ledger accounts. "We recommend that a con- solidated statement showing total figures only for the in- dividual departments be pre- pared each month for the in- formation of aldermen. A copy of the detailed: statement for each department would be sent to the city clerk, who would bring all of these statements to the next meeting of council. Aldermen requiring further de- tail on any department could then get it from the clerk, but need not be concerned with this For Assault An Ajax youth was jaiied for two months Friday when Magis- trate F, S. Ebbs found him guii- ty of assaulting a peace officer and causing a disturbance. Dan- iel John Gallagher, 19, pleaded not guilty to both charges. Constable C.

To Address Civic Dinner The Oshatwa Times SECOND SECTION Dr. Kenneth McFarland, edu- cational consultant to the Gen- eral Motors Corporation and the American Trucking Association,' will address the Oshawa and District Real Estate Board's third annual civic dinner to be held at St. Gregory's Audi- torium next Tuesday, In a recent nation-wide poll conducted by the United States Chamber of Commerce. Dr. ' his home in Topeka, Kansas, devotes his life to "selling Am- erica to the Americans". Few Americans, it has been said, do more travelling on the commercial airlines than does Dr. McFarland who logs more hours aloft each week as a pas- senger enroute than most civil- ian pilots who earn their living in the air. He gives about 200 talks a year to groups he considers "the key leaders of the Na- tion." Dr. McFarland believes that the best way to get certain basic truths over to people is "to look them in the eye and tell them." His philosophy is that no one can render any greater service to other people than to keep them aware of America's rich 'exitage and opportunities and to keep them inspired to live by the philosophy. that will let them capitalize fully on their own capabilities. Among the head table guests will be many civic dignitaries from Oshawa, Whitby, Bow- manville and Ajax. Her Wor- ship Mayor Christine Thomas will represent the City of Osh- awa. Col. R. S. McLaughlin has consented to honor the occasion with his presence.

Oshawa's first private ele- mentary school will be officially opened to the public Oct. 24 at 8 p.m. Emmanuel School, at Ross- land and Thornton roads, is governed and controlled by the pupils' parents in which re- ligious aspects are applied to all its academic subjects. The school is not affiliated with any church although it tends to fol- low the trend of the Refsrma- tion. President of Emmanuel Chris- tian. School Society, Henry Kiezebrink will participate at the opening ceremonies. A word of prayer and dedication will be given by John Van Dyke, prin- cipal of Hamilton and District Christian High Scool. An open house will follow. DUTCH AFFILIATION The school is affiliated with the Ontario Alliance of' Chris- tian Schools formed at Holland Marsh during the 1943 immigra- tion of the Dutch people into Canada. It is a subdivision of the National Union of Christian Schools which has been in exis- tence for over 100 years in the U.S.A, There are 40 private Christian schools in Ontario. In Oshawa four years ago, 25 parents 'met and formed the Emmanuel Christian School So- ciety. These people were inter- ested in finding a school- of this sort for their children. The building of Emmanuel School which began in May of this New Private School To Open Next Week The society now boasts of over 100 parents and is headed by Henry Kiezebrink. Emmanu- el School was opened to its pupils this September. 106 PUPILS Under the supervision of Wil- liam R. Rang, principal, the school teaches Grades 1 to 8; At present there are 106 pupils on the roll. Althoug most of these children are of Dutch descent, 40' per cent of the younger chil- dren would not understand the language if it was spoken to them, Principal William R. Rang ex- plaining the method of teaching with a religious aspect said, "we show our great men in his- tory as men who not only act but think and feel." He listed among these great men of strong religious convic- tions, Frontenac, D'Iberville, Cartier, Champlain and Maison- neuve. Under the ruling of Bill 33, the schooi is open to inspection by the Department of Educa- tion. The curriculum of the Pub- lic School Board is followed but religion and spiritual values are taught in each lesson, STANDARDS HIGH The highest standards are maintained. Mr Rang stated "'a great deal is expected of teach- ers of private schools. In order to teach ir a school of this type. tire with his newspaper at the end of a day, a private schoo) teacher must spend as much time as possible studying". The principal of Emmanuei School recalls spending many evenings pouring over his books until the early hours of the morning. The main idea of a schoo! of this sort is, ee bag, Christian teaching, to make better Cana- dians of today's youth- Said Mr. Rang, "as the pres- ent trend of pushing religion out of schools continues, we can expect more pupils will fill Schools of our sort up. Parents are becoming more conscious of the need for religious training." He added, "we have definite proof of this as we see an in. crease of pupils in our private Christian schools." 70 AT MEETING How do the parents feel about Emmanuel School? A total of 70 parents turned up at last Saturday's PTA meet- ing, the principal said. Before coming to Oshawa, Mr. Rang was principal for seven years at John Calvin School, Strathroy, Ont., which is also a private school. The private Christian school movement is _ international.
