The group voted unanimously to recommend to the Association of Oregon Counties that a 'sur vey be set up immediately to determine the status of cost ac counting systems In the various individual counties and to find ways and means to assure the establishment of better systems. It was reported that most of the counties contend that they now have good cost accounting systems; however, one promi nent county engineer expressed the opinion that all but a very few of the counties are confus ing ordinary accounting systems with the more specialized cost accounting. He pointed out that ordinary accounting merely gives figures on receipts and expenditures on a lump sum ba sis whereas cost accounting pro vides figures to show detailed costs of each separate operation. The group gave solid recog nition to the fact that cost ac counting is the only source of accurate information on whether or not the county is spending its road dollars in the most econom ical manner. This joint commit tee is made up of the Roads and Highways committee of the Association of Oregon Counties, the Roads and Highways com mittee of the Oregon Association of County Engineers and Sur veyors and a task committee of the Associated General Contrac tors. The joint committee also gave considerable time to discussion of the factors involved in the proposed program wherein the counties would submit more of the county road construction work to competitive bidding. ers at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Rees Morgan.
