The Part of the Union in Industrial Life.
The Union, greatly interested as it is in the development of industry in our country, has organised under the supervision of the Central Committee a special „Industrial section“, whose function is to consider the problems of industrial organisation in the particular branches of Nation's activities, which interess the Union mostly. Special attention has been paid by the Union to the organisation of bookkeeping and accountancy in the Republic's financial institutions, and also to different methods of control. This work is being done side by side with the Union's participation in various departamental commissions, dealing with the various problems of financial policy and practice. At present the Union is preparing for the coming Congress all the materials relative to its participation in the work of financial and Control Institutions.
