NOTE: For courses having both lectures and quizzes, the Time
of Exercise is the time of tie first lecture period of the week; for
courses having quizzes only, the Time of Exercise is the time of the
first quiz period,
Drawing and laboratoiy work may be continued through the
examination period in amount equal to that normally devoted to
such work during one week.
Certain courses will be examined at special periods as noted
below the regular schedule. All cases of conflicts between assigned
examination periods should be reported for adjustment to Professor
J. C. Brier, Room 3223 East Engineering Building before Jan.
27. To avoid misunderstandings and errors, each student should
receive notification from his instructor of the time and place of his
appearance in each course during the period Jan. 30 to Feb. 10.
No single course is permitted more than four hours of exami-
nation. No date of examination may be changed without the con-
sent of the Classification Committee.

Prof. Benson Describes
Changes Proposed By
President's Advisers
By TUURE TENANDER
A very distinct improvement in the
system of auditing and supervising'
the nation's finances will result when,
and if, the recommendations made by
the President's Committee on Admin-
istrative Management for revision of
the fiscal auditing system are enact-
ed, Prof. George C. S. Benson of thej
University Bureau of Government
said yesterday.
"There is no large, modern govern-
ment in the world," Professor Benson'
said, "that tries to get along with
the system of auditing now in use
in this country, nor does one find
such a system used in industry."
Critized By President
Much justified criticism has been
made, he said, of the way in which
the office of the Comptroller General
has been used. President Roosevelt,
in his message to Congress on reor-
ganization last week, said in part:
"The committee does not spare the
Camptroller General for his failure
to give the Congress a prompt and
complete audit each year, totally in-
dependent of administration, as a
means of holding the executive truly,
to account; nor for his unconstitu-
tional assumption of executive power;
nor, for the failure to keep the ac-
counting system of the government
up to date to serve as the basis of
information, management andscon-
trol . .."
System Sometimes Fails
"The pre-auditing system now
used," Professor Benson explained,
"fails to catch certain errors that
would in all probability be caught if
a periodic method of auditing were
used. It is always recognized that
the control of expenditures before
they are made is an essential part
of the administrative process but the
time for a check-up from the out-
side is after the expenditures have
been made," he said.
One of the chief criticisms of the
General Accounting Office at present,
in Professor Benson's opinion, is the
fact that the Comptroller General
has "arrogated to himself powers
that do not belong to him."
"The Comptroller General is not
an administrative officer and does

not cooperate with other adminis-1
trative officials," he said. "There has
been too legalistic and technical an
interpretation of the office' powers
with no eye for real governmental
economy," he added.
Another criticism made by Pro-
fessor Benson of the present system
is that much of the machinery of the
General Accounting Office merely
duplicates that of the executive de-
partments and of the Budget Bu-
reau.j
The changes advocated by the
President on the basis of his com-
mittee's report would provide for an
auditor general who would conduct
an independent post audit of the
fiscal transactions.
"The recommendations provide for
giving the executive the right to pre-
scribe auditing systems and to settle
claims against the government," Pro-
fessor Benson said. "The Secretary
of the Treasury and the Attorney
General would also have the right to
interpret and decide upon legal fiscal
issues," he added.
Favors Periodic Audits
"I favor strongly the adoption of
all the fiscal recommendations made
by the committee," Professor Ben-
son said, "with the exception of the
continuous auditing method. I be-
lieve the adoption of a process of
periodic audits is to be preferred
over the continuous system," he said.
If the recommendations are adopt-
ed. Professor Benson feels, the re-
sponsibility for expenditures will be
placed firmly in the executive branch.
Under the present system, he said,
the Comptroller General is not re-
sponsible to anyone and often cases
have had to be decided by the United
States Supreme Court in order to re-
voke the mandate handed down by
the Comptroller General.
"Under the proposed revision," Pro-
fessor Benson said, "the auditor-gen-
eral must submit a report of any ex-
penditures under question to Con-
gress if he and the Secretary of the
Treasury do not agree on whether
or not the item is to be allowed."

N.,L.R.B. Action
In G. M. Strike
Is Discussed
(Continued from Page 1)
onize either the American Federation
of Labor (the craft group) or the
Committee for Industrial Organiza-
tion (the industrial group, opponent
of the A.F. of L.).
(2) "As it is now constituted, the
Board would also be very reluctant to
take any move that would put it in a
partizan position."
Representation Is Question
No one doubts, it was pointed out,
that one of the main purposes of the
Board is to determine representation.
And that is the big question in the
General Motors strike. The United
Automobile Workers union demands
recognition as the sole bargaining
agency, and at the same time gives
no conclusive proof that it has the
majority of the workers needed to
entitle it, under the act, to be recog-
nized as such.
Indeed, many observers doubt thatI
the union does have a majority of
members or even a majority of sym-
pathizers among the non-union
strikers, as large as its minority in
that field may be. So, Professor

Riegel declares, the union, thus be-
ing in an unsure position, will prob-
ably not ask the Board to conduct
a vote.
So, since it appears that the Board
will not act unless asked to do so by
the union, it will not act at all be-
cause the union will not request it.
Board Has Two Duties
Yet, as Prof. Edgar Durfee of the
Law School asserts, "the outstand-
ing idea of the whole statute is to
provide machinery for the determin-
ation of labor representation."
The Board has two essential duties,
Professor Reigel explained. The first
has to do with the determining of
jurisdictional lines, i.e., saying what
unions shall be concerned with what
industries and what sections of the
country. It is here that possible dif-
ficulties with the A.F. of L. and the
C.I.O. loom.
The second, bearing more directly
on the Michigan situation, deals with
the determination of who is going to
