HON. T. W. THIESEN, MAYOR, AND COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF RACINE:
Gentlemen—Herewith I present financial reports and exhibits of
City Departments for the Fiscal Year ending December 31st, 1914, as per
my contract entered into with your Finance Committee; in addition I have
submitted some special statistics and other data which may be considered
as having some value; have also made suggestions which if carried out it is
believed will tend to further improve the accounting System.
This series is the first of the annual reports to show some comparisons
with the preceding year. If the general method of presentation is ap-
proved would recommend that the work of gathering the data and prepar-
ing the exhibits in comparative form covering the years 1914 and 1915 be
commenced sufficiently early in 1916 that the Whole may be completed and
in your hands not later than July 1st.
For the purpose of showing the expenses of all departments of the city
on a uniform basis—that is, covering the city’s fiscal year—the Boards of
Education, Industrial School and Library were requested to submit distribu-
tion of their expenditures for the year ending December 31st, 1914. These
requests being complied with made possible the presentation of exhibit No.
12 (page 15) “Expenses of General Departments of the City for the Fiscal
Year ending December 31st, 1914.” The advantage that may accrue from
such an annual exhibit is that hereafter the expense of each fiscal year
(with the exception of depreciation—which is referred to hereinafter) could
be shown of each and all departments making possible intelligent com-
parison one year with another. The accounting system provides for hold-
ing the records Open in the office of the City Comptroller a reasonable time
that all expenses may be presented, allowed and paid before closing the ac-
counts for the year. The total expense for 1914 (not including deprecia-
tion) is shown as $746,957.86. The percentage that each of the general
divisions bears to the Whole is worked out and is also graphically shown in
the accompanying chart. In the 1914-1915 reports would propose to give
not only these percentages but also that of each department and account in
comparative form that increases and decreases might be readily grasped.
Depreciation as an Expense——In the introduction to exhibit No. 12
(page 15) it is suggested that hereafter a charge be made annually against
each department to cover depreciation. If this suggestion is approved then
the total annual expense of each department could be quite accurately
shown. In the Metz Hand Book of Municipal Accounting it is recommended
that provision for Such a charge be included in the budget of expenses. As
this might tend to confuse you when considering the annual budgetary esti-
mates for the present at least would recommend that it be not done but in-
stead that such charges be passed thro auxiliary books to be used only for
recording the acquisition of property and the annual depreciation charges
against Same—such records to be written up and posted soon after the close
of each fiscal year. Under this plan, which would cause no more work than
that necessary to write up the Special records of one year early in the next,
present methods would be followed—the only change being the addition of
a Property Ledger and Journal—in the former to be shown in detail the
property acquired each year by each department—a section to be reserved
for each; a controlling depreciation account to cover each class of property
to be opened and charged annually, department depreciation accounts being
Credited. By this means the total depreciation of each class of property
could be shown each year distributed by departments. Also could be shown
the expense of each department and all departments somewhat as follows:
Expenses paid in cash. . . . . . tº e e s tº e a e g º e $ . . . . . . . . .
Expenses in acctS. payable . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Property deterioration expense. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Apart from the information that might be gained by so distributing
depreciation among the various city departments each year a very real ad-
vantage Would result in showing in one record and in detail the property
under control of each department. Such a complete property record should
be readily available, and the connecting there with of depreciation charges
each year as suggested Would not entail much extra work. For the present
would not recommend attempting to work out depreciation charges against
such “Outlays” as Sewers, Paving, Grading and that class of city property,
would, however, record, the net increases each year. See also exhibit No.
15—page 16. * -
Distribution of Departmental Expenditures
Owing to misunderstanding this distribution has not been made ex-
actly as was planned largely due to manner in which appropriations have
been allowed. Appropriations should be made to cover specific items or
group of items properly distributable under the same head. For example,
“Repairs and Supplies” should not be covered under one appropriation,
neither should “Auto-tires and Department Repairs.” Appropriations when
made sufficiently specific—then numbered or lettered under direction of
the city comptroller—and department heads required to connect expendi-
tures with appropriations by noting against each such letter or number or
both, should insure correct distribution. If this or something equivalent
be not done then proper distribution in the office of the city Comptroller will
continue to be difficult and to a certain extent guess work as only those who
direct the placing of orders can correctly determine the distribution. It is
understood the comptroller will question and halt any item he may have
reason to consider as improperly distributed by any department. City Comp-
troller Ryba states the plan herein suggested will be strictly enforced com-
mencing with 1915 budget and 1916 expenditures.
Is Interest an Expense?
By some interest is thought to be an item of expense or kind of Over-
head charge. Being neither under control of department heads or strictly
speaking a fixed-charge interest should not be considered an expense in the
ordinary sense. In the case of Racine interest is nearly entirely that part
of the cost of improvements “Outlays” paid from proceeds of bond issues,
or in other words, the cost of borrowed capital used for such a purpose. If
the annual interest charge plus “Outlay” bonds retired or otherWise pro-"
vided for and the amount paid from revenue each year for Outlays exactly
equalled the annual deterioration of all city properties then payments ac-
count interest might be considered an offset to depreciation. To the extent
that the total of annual payments referred to above exceed a fair annual
charge for depreciation of all city properties Capital Surplus would be in-
creased and vice versa—this is on basis of considering interest included in
a bond issue as part of the cost of the property for which the bonds were
issued.
Another view: Some are of opinion it is due to poor financing in the
past that the present generation is compelled to pay so large an annual
charge for interest—and that it would have been wiser if in the early years
the citizens had decreed improvements should only be undertaken as they
could be paid for from revenue based on a reasonable tax rate. What would
have been the result today had such a policy been strictly enforced? Is it
probable the city would be as well paved, lighted and from every point of
view, schools, libraries, parks etc., so desirable and beautiful a place in
which to reside as it now is? In other words—is the community today
being benefited to an extent which may be considered as offsetting the
annual charge for retirement of “Outlay” bonds and interest on such bonds?
If it is conceded that it is then the policy of paying for such improvements
as school-houses, original street-paving, park-lands that will in future be
needed in outlying districts, etc., and such items, by proceeds from bond is-
sues, is justified; otherwise the extremely conservative policy of paying-as-
you-go would be endorsed. Such bond issues should be serial and be re-
tired about as follows: Sewers and park-lands long term, sewers gradually
increasing annual payments; park-lands small annual payments during the
early years; school-houses gradually increasing; pavements larger payments
during the early years. For pavements all the bonds should be retired with-
in say fifteen years, and for the other purposes named not exceeding thirty
to fifty years. To so issue bonds, however, would necessitate amendment of
the Charter. Is it in keeping with modern ideas that the cities of the state
should continue to be hampered by state legislative action? Is it not
about time that such progressive cities as Racine be granted home rule in
all matters not affecting the people of the state as a whole?
“The community” is composed of all the people, the majority of
whom are small tax-payers, and it is they who must determine its policies;
to do so intelligently, however, they must be sufficiently informed. It is
encouraging in this respect that better business methods are being adopted—
greater publicity is being given such matters; the voters are demanding more
information—and they cannot be too well informed. In determining ques-
tions that may affect future generations it should be borne in mind that as
the population is constantly increasing so will the needs of the community
——that within thirty years it may be expected the population will be at least
twice what it is today; also, that the ability of the Community to pay may
be expected to correspondingly increase—therefore it follows the people
should plan well for the future. Much more could be said along this line.
The Writer did not intend to Say so much and Would not have done so did he
not believe the city has reached a very important stage in its growth—that
its development may be expected to be in greater ratio from now on con-
sequently there is a growing necessity for study and systematic planning
ahead not only by each of the various departments but by the community
as a Whole.
Interest Account—Commencing with closing December 31st, 1915, in-
terest will be treated as a continuing account and be adjusted to show the
correct liability as of that date. Then by an appropriation each year suf-
ficient to exactly cover the interest maturing during the next fiscal year plus
an appropriation to cover any interest that may mature during such year
on bonds issued, the account should at all times show the correct liability.
Accounts Receivable—Commencing with 1916, invoices covering all
charges by the Board of Public Works will be passed thro the books in the
office of the city comptroller immediately received—accounts as may be
proper being credited and Accounts Receivable charged. The invoices
which will be numbered consecutively as heretofore, will then be turned
over to the City Treasurer for collection. The account will open with the
unpaid bills under date December 31st, 1915. December 31st, 1914, the fol-
lowing invoices were unpaid: No. 56, $3.15; No. 109, $4.00; No. 13.6, $3.88;
No. 203, $22.00; No. 208, $28.15; No. 260, $54.00; No. 271, $3.03; No. 280,
$94.41; No. 304, $10.00; No. 311, $7.00; Total $229.62. Properly this
total should appear among the assets in the balance sheet, exhibit No. 14.
Hereafter this item will appear in the balance sheet each year.
Property and Debt Statement—Exhibit No. 15—p. 16.
This will be found interesting in that it shows the relative increase in
total expenditures account properties such as Schools, Fire Stations, Parks
and other departmental “Outlays” (not including Paving, Grading, Sewers
and similar items) as compared with increase in debt between January 1st,
1913, and December 31st, 1914. In addition to the increase shown in such
capital assets (less depreciation) there was considerable increase in ex-
penditures for paving, etc., over what might be considered a fair charge to
cóvér depreciation. *
/ Extracts from Bureau of the Census Bulletin No. 126. Exhibits
/ No. 20 and 21—pages 26, 27, giving per capita statistics in a num-
/ ber of cities of about the same population as that of Racine.
/ While the data in these exhibits relates (in the case of Racine) to the
year ending December 31st, 1912, and is therefore somewhat ancient it will
probably prove interesting in so far that it shows the relative conditions at
about that time. Next year it will be possible to submit a later set of
figures; and as each year goes by it is believed such comparative data will
become more and more valuable to the city officials and others interested in
the welfare of the city. It is submitted that were the officials of each city
to require as part of its published annual reports a table showing com-
parative data in other cities of about same population, such data to be ob-
tained from the latest publications of the Bureau of the Census, more uni-
formity in distribution under the general heads used by the Bureau would
probably soon follow—which it would seem is desirable. Racine has made a
beginning—subsequent reports will more closely follow the lines laid down
by the Bureau. The writer believes that such co-operation with the Bureau
of the Census would ultimately prove of great value to city officials in that
more and more accurate figures for comparison would be made availabie.
Debt—The bonds outstanding December 31st, 1914, totalled $940,000.00;
of this all are serial bonds excepting $37,000.00 of which $20,000.00 will
mature July 1st, 1916, and $17,000.00 July 1st, 1919. The appropriations
to sinking-fund each year will be sufficient to retire the $37,000.00 by
charge to that fund. All bonds are now being issued under what is known
as the Serial method which requires that a direct tax be levied each year
to cover principal and interest as they mature.
Board of Public Works: Exhibit No. 18—page 18, is a schedule
of Streets paved to date in chronological order:
As no pavement of a permanent character has been relaid the table
will prove interesting. The earliest brick paving laid in the city was from
the C. M. & St. P. Railway to Root River—which was put down in 1903.
The last street paved in 1914 was Rapids Drive from Douglas to City limits.
The total cost is shown by the Board of Public Works to have been $1,311,-
271.17—exhibit No. 19, page 23. The length of paved streets is given as
34.66 miles.
Cost of Sewerage System Is Also Shown on Page 23
The other exhibits it is believed will be found self explanatory, the only
department regarding which special reference seems desirable is that of
“Charities,” which follows:
Charities—“Poor Department,” “Public Welfare”
This department differs from that of any other in that similar work is
now being carried on by an organization independent of your honorable
body—the Central Association. The whole of the money expended, however,
is obtained from the people of Racine—part by direct taxation the remain-
der being contributed by public spirited citizens assisted by some of the
churches and societies, and in addition much valuable time is donated. The
complexity of the work connected with this department is ever increasing
and the demands upon it will continue to increase with the growth of the
city.
In a discussion of Charities and Corrections, Edward T. Devine, Pro-
fessor of Social Economy—Columbia University, says “What we (in New
York City) need is not an alms-house in the old sense but a series of
specialized institutions.” By this it would seem is meant, briefly stated,

Charity scientifically distributed. And in a report to the Central Associa-
tion, its president, Mr. O. W. Johnson, that gentleman says “the object of
such charitable work should be to promote self-reliance not alms seeking
and dependence.” It will be admitted such work is mutually elevating and
that all citizens should co-operate with those who donate to it not only
money but much valuable time.
Every effort is being made to increase the efficiency of the various city
departments—in other words, to obtain better results, if possible, from each
dollar of money (energy) expended. The question arises is the work of this
department being conducted in accordance with approved modern methods?
Is there sufficiently close co-operation between the city Poor Department
and the Central Association? Without cordial co-operation between bodies
working to the same ends there must follow loss of energy and consequent
waste of money. Could better results be expected if the control was cen-
tralized?
An expenditure which in 1914 totalled approximately $30,000 is a large
item and the people of Racine from whom this money is collected are
largely dependent on action of your honorable body to see that it is wisely
expended, and that there is no unnecessary duplication of work.
The following is respectfully submitted:
Would it be well to appoint an Advisory Committee to thoroughly in-
vestigate and report upon the organization of and the work that is being
done by the Central Association, also by the City Poor Department, with the
view of aiding your honorable body to determine:
First—Whether the methods being followed by the City Poor Depart-
ment may be considered as entirely satisfactory.
Second—If the methods being followed cannot be considered satis-
factory under the prevailing conditions—Wherein they can be best improved.
Third—Wherein the work done by the Central Association differs with
that performed by the City Poor Department.
Fourth—Whether close co-operation between the City Poor Department
and the Central Association might be expected to yield better and satisfac-
tory results.
To those interested in Public Welfare work the paper on “Eleemosy-
nary Institutions and Accountancy,” by Doctor Cleveland, read before the
National Conference on Charities and Corrections, May 1906, would prove
not only very interesting but highly instructive. The value of this paper
is such that no apology is offered for quoting the following, with which it
OpenS:
“The members of this conference may not be accustomed to thinking of
philanthropy in terms of accountancy. Dealing with human factors, you
have perhaps found little or no interest in figures. Nevertheless, for an
apostle of finance it may not be considered inappropriate to say that your
sums, whether they have to do with human integers, or with human fractions,
must be finally solved by the logic of the counting house. Application is made
to the office of philanthropy for relief; you at once send out an agent to take
off an individual balance sheet, an individual income-statement, and an anal-
3ysis of the individual deficit-account. Philanthropy which is not preceded by
such an investigation is considered worse than wasted.
“The records from which your data are drawn, are found in the faces, the
hearts, and homes of social dependents. The symbols read and interpreted by
3you are hunger, pain and disease — the dwarf child, the tear-worn face of the
mother, the hopeless and inebriate father.”
I wish to express my appreciation of the courtesies extended to me by
those in all departments with whom I have been brought in contact during
the preparation of the report and exhibits, and particularly do I appreciate
the cordial co-operation of your City Comptroller Mr. Charles Ryba and his

Deputy. Respectfully submitted,
WILLIAM J. HOPKINS,
Consulting Accountant and Auditor.

Exhibit 12
Interest is not included for the reason it is not properly considered an
Expense—it being, as defined by the Bureau of the Census, “the accrued
cost paid or payable incurred for the use of credit capital.”
Depreciation of Equipment, etc., is, however, as much a Departmental
Expense as Salaries, etc.—It has never been so included in your reports and
is not taken into account in the following table of Expenses. Would sug-
gest that commencing With next year the expense of each department in-
clude a fair charge to cover depreciation that the current expenses may be
more accurately Stated. The result of Omission in this respect is that Cur-
rent expenses are understated and additions to permanent properties in-
cluding improvements overstated, or perhaps to be more correct, exagger-
ated.

16 - FIN ANCIAL REPO RTS
CONDENSED PROPERTY AND DEBT STATEMENT
Exhibit 15
Under date December 31, 1912, the Bureau of the Census states the value of
Racine City property, exclusive of Highways, Sewers and such items, as $1,540.000.
Am informed that with the exception of the amount noted against “Recreation”
the values may be considered as fairly true. In discussing this matter with
your Superintendent of Parks he referred to the report of the Park Board, De-
cember 31, 1913, which gives valuation of properties under control of the Board
including Bathing Beaches, on both North and South sides of the city, as $768,371
—deducting additions in 1913 this total would be reduced to $709,928. The basis
of valuation was original purchase price plus all permanent improvements and
taking into consideration an increased value in keeping with the increase in real
estate values in the several sections. This total includes the ornamental section
surrounding the Soldier's Monument at a valuation of $288,000, as appraised by
a board of real estate men. Your Superintendent of Parks now is of opinion that
for Park purposes a figure not to exceed $100.000 would be a more legitimate
value for this piece of property—and to be conservative the amount is cut to
$75,000, making the corrected valuation of properties set apart for Recreation
under date December 31, 1912, as $497,000. With this correction the values shown
by the Bureau of the Census have been used—adding thereto the additions in
1913 and 1914.
The purpose of this Exhibit is to show approximately and in concise form
the relative increase in Such properties as compared with increase in debt. In
considering these figures depreciation during the past two years should be borne
in mind. Have suggested elsewhere that a Depreciation account be opened next
year and a fair charge be made against each Department annually to cover de-
preciation of its property including equipment that not only may Departmental
Expenses be shown more truly but a more accurate showing be made of increase
in property assets from year to year.

The following brief report is made by Superintendent of Schools, B. E. Nelson.
The Board of Industrial Education was appointed by the Board of Education
about October 15, 1911. On October 24th, 1911, the Board of Industrial Education
petitioned the Common Council for $3,000.00.
The first enrollment and organization of classes under the new law occurred October

courses. The evening schools were well attended.
The salaries of teachers during the first year ending June 30, 1912, amounted to
$3,077.50, and the incidental charges were $1,927. 13, a total of $5,004. 63.

Apprenticeship School
This applies only to indentured apprentices who attend school five hours each week.
Permit School
This school enrolls pupils regularly employed, all of whom under seventeen years
of age are required to attend school one half day each week.
Industrial School
This school cares for those children under seventeen years of age who are tempo-
rarily out of employment, and for that reason do not fit in with the regular public school
work and these children attend daily while out of employment.
Evening Schools
These schools appeal to people over seventeen years of age who are interested in
further education either in the industries or in academic instruction.
About one
third of those attending evening schools are foreigners studying the English language.
