GENERAL TREASURER'S ACCOUNT 



1931-32 



The expenses of the Centenary Meeting (i 931), so far as 

 they can be distinguished, are set out separately in the 

 following accounts, but ordinary items of expenditure, 

 such as stationery, postages, and printing, were also 

 necessarily increased beyond the normal. It should 

 be remembered that there was no ' local fund,' as 

 usually there is to meet costs of meeting-rooms, 

 entertainment, etc., and the Centenary Fund initiated 

 by the Association itself, primarily in order to cover 

 the costs of the Meeting, did not do so. It was stated 

 in last year's Report that the general financial situation 

 did not admit of pressing the appeal for the Centenary 

 Fund as strongly as it might have been pressed in 

 favourable circumstances. It has therefore been 

 necessary to draw upon the Yarrow Fund, as stated in 

 the accounts. The Association's finances are further 

 dealt with in the Report of the Council to the General 

 Committee, paragraphs X-XIII. 



J. C. Stamp, 



General Treasurer.
