Dear Dr. Mb*
According to the statement Just received from the Bursar* s
Office for the four months ending October 31st, there has been charged
to the Lead fond a total of $1,433.82. As the balance of the Lead Fund
as of July 1, 1930 was $1,388.64, this charge leaves a deficit of $45.18.
This has been checked in our office and with Miss Anderson, and the
figures in all three offices agree. Miss Anderson tells me she has
written you asking you to communicate with Mr. Woraser so that the
University will receive a check covering the deficit and future payments
already arranged for. Will you be good enough to send us the original
pledge for the $10,000, so that we may forward it to the Treasurer* s
Office. The following letter which I have lately received from Mr.
Shat tuck explains the necessity for this;
"I have yours of the 5th regarding the preparation of
budgets.
.ij^ese gadgets should be based on income from
funds in''hand1, ' on gifts' In hon gifts promised in
writing and payable'within the fiscal year for which the
budget is prepaf^d^'-'The:'b^ip.nals of all such promises should
be filed in thiW'^lfleb vlitott.jWeive4# as we keep a file of
all original papers relating to gifts and pledges. The
Auditor gets his information from our recced*. Only in this
way Is it possible to keep a proper control of expenditures
and to make sure that there are or will be resources to meet
them. I shall be much obliged if you will call this to the
attention of all department heads.*
Very sincerely yours.
