Of that appropriation about $16,000 remains. Any bal ance unexpended by June 30 next will, barring further legis iative action, lapse to the state general fund. The Utah constitution gives the legislature power to authorize or equire the tax commission to establish systems of The compublic accounting. mission, ever since it was established in 1931 had the power and duty to establish such systems in all taxing units of the state and to provide uniform classification of accounts, which shall be followed in the financial records of all taxing units, and it may- - recommend accounting methods and forms for public accounts in the interest of uniformity-- , efficiency and economy. It was not, however, until 1951 that the legislature appropriated money to be devoted specifically to such work. The action was taken in response to urgent request from the Utah municipal league. A survey of the situation made, at the time indicated that the greatest need for revision of accounting sysgovernmental tems existed among cities of the third class and towns. Some counties, also, are expressing a desire for prompt a"tion. At present the state aid has been made available only to those municipalities which requested such help When that request is made, the first step is to examine the prevailing sys tem, and then recommendation are prepared for the minimum of changes which will bring the system into conformity with, the uniform system prepared by the accountants association. These recommendations including a tentative schedule of accounts, are submitted to the local governing bodies, andi if they are approved, the proposed system is installed, and the local officials are trained In its use, A simplified manual for the use of the local officials is in course of preparation.1 By means of the uniform accounting program, said Chairman Healy, we aim to make it possible for city officials to provide for themselves and their public comprehensive financial data which will enable them to have a better understanding of their citys financial problems, and will assist them in the proper and orderly management of the citys financial affairs. Intelligent budgeting becomes possi- -' ble and the facts concerning the financial condition of the respective cities can be presented to the citizens In simple andi understandable form.
