The press carried yesterday the statement that the ladies of New Bern in a benefit bridge party raised $50 for the loan fund.

As has been pre viously pointed out this plan has long been needed at the Univer- sity, and is one which will place student organizations' finances on a much more business-like basis. The plan of setting up such a board was recommended by the Student Activities Commit- tee; but before the suggestion ; can be put into effect it must be passed by a student body vote. It is, therefore, desirable that every student registered at the University cast his vote either for or against this proposal!

These statistics have been taken from the attorney general's annual reports; statis - tics relating to intoxicating li - quors compiled by the treasury department, reports of the Fed- eral Prohibition Bureau; con- gressional hearings on treasury bills and the Wickersham re port. It should be borne in mind that the totals are federal only and do not include other than United States government agen cies. These figures estimate the cost of enforcement in the period from January 1920 to July 30, 1931 at $370,000,000. To' be contrasted with this is the total estimated loss of revenue placed at $10,984,000,000.

ON AUDIT BOARD board has once been established, it will have absolute authority to audit books of every major stu- dent organization on the cam pus. Since, therefore, practical ly every student will be directly affected by this board, it is noth ing but fair that each student be given a chance of expressing-his viewpoint. No one after, thinking the matter over can fail to favor es- tablishing an Auditing Board. But regardless of whether every student is of this same opinion or not, he is expected, and urged, to cast his vote one way or the other. C.G.R. Other statistics include 681,- 657 arrests for prohibition vio- 266,790,612 gallons of liquor, mash, etc. seized; and 77,707 automobiles and 6,809 vessels spirits, $2.30 for wine, and 504be analyzed completely. cents for beer. i Before forming an opinion of whether the people opposing j prohibition are justified in their ( contention that they have paid enough, it should also be borne in mind that the annual totals comprising the items of the .bill, continue, year by year, to move upward. Within the last few weeks New Jersey has been added to the list of ten. states officially repudiating national prohibi tion. These commonwealths, have a population of 36,003,264, or 29.42 per cent of the national total, and they pay 63.69 per cent or $601,185,980 of the ag gregate sum received in federal individual income taxes for 1929-1930.

' - The student body will vote by ballot upon the student auditing board today. The polls, located in Graham Memorial, will be open from 9:00 o'clock this morning to 5 :00 o'clock this af ternoon. The purpose of the board as conceived by the student leaders is threefold. It will encourage careful bookkeeping, eliminate graft, and allow a readjustment at the beginning of each new administration if such seems desirable by the reports pub lished. By this examination of the accounts of student organi zations misproportionate fees may be readily detected and cor rected. The jurisdiction of the board will extend over all accounts collected by the business office which are levied by a vote of the organization. This means that every student will know at the end of each fiscal year for what, his fees have been expended. The report will appear in The Daily Tar Heel as soon as, it has been prepared by the board. Such organizations as the inter-, fraternity council, German club, the Phi and the Di, and other organizations of a quasi-public nature, not of a compulsory na ture, collecting . fees from mem bers of the student body will not forcible come under the juris diction of the board, but it is considered desirable. No salaries will be paid to the members of the board. Where professional services are re quired the organization con cerned will bear the expense.
