jft Las Vegas - April 26, X95& W 6-^— 5 Mr, L® V. Peart - Omaha Please refer to your letters dated April 7# 195^ and April 20, 1951*, file BD 9-3# relative to oash shortage in the amount of 111.10 In our accounts which has appeared on Form 6, "Daily Oash Report.® Your understanding of our policy regarding overages and shortages la correct. We find this practice presents a true picture of all transactions relative to cash, and after a thorough examination of this policy 1 find I am unable to develop a substitute. Referring to the third paragraph of your letter dated April 7th, regarding the net shortage of Checker Betty Panalikowski, shortages in her accounts were the primary reason for her dis­missal, and since that time we have kept a constant check of all cash transactions. Although the #11.10 shortage seems to be excessive, please note that this amount has accrued over a thirteen month period and it is my recommendation that this amount be carried in our accounts until such time as the sale of the Water Company to the Water District has been consummated, at which time any overages or shortages in our accounts should be adjusted. After you have reviewed the above I would appreciate your suggestions on this matter. MSDsejp L. R. Maag
