Attorney Suggests Cost Accounting In County Office Appearing before the Moore County commissioners in Carth age Monday, R. F. Hoke Pollock of Southern Pines, who retired Tuesday as president of the Moore ounty Bar Association, thanked the commissioners, on behalf of the county bar, for placing a new photocopy machine in the regis ter of deeds office, speeding up making copies of documents, and also for placing a telephone in the hall outside the courtroom, available to attorneys. The local attorney also recom mended speaking for himself per-' sonally, that the county have a cost accounting done on opera tions in the register of deeds of fice, to determine whether fees charged for handling various pa pers there are high enough. He said that he thinks the county is running the office at a loss and that the clerk of court’s office is also not paying for itself in fees. If a cost accounting is successful for the register of deeds office, it might be tried on other court house operations, he suggested. The commissioners appeared to look favorably on the project but took no definite action, pending an estimate of what such an ac counting would cost. They praised the work of Mrs Audrey McCaskill, register of deeds. Earlier, in the meeting, Mrs. McCaskill reported that No vember was the biggest month in the history of the office, with over $1,893 paid in lees. She said she has had to work overtime to keep up with the work and that she would have to have more help in the office.
