In addition to the above there is a large stock of Publications of the Society, and also bound copies of the Salvage Stock, of which no account is taken.

* No allowance has been made for additional volumes, 1915 to 1920 inclusive.

Examined with Vouchers and Pass Book and found correct.

I again call attention to the large amount of subscriptions in arrear, £46 4s. for 1920, and £38 17 s. for earlier years. I consider that the whole of the latter should be deleted from the Assets, and that no more than 50% of the 1920 subscriptions are good value. I consider that the Council should deal with this matter promptly as it gives a false impression of the Society's Assets.

C. J. TABOR, Hon. Auditor.
February 8th, 1921.

I am in full agreement with the Auditor's comments.
EDWARD CLODD, Hon. Treasurer.
