The American Accountant.
The provides information about the monthly magazine "The American Accountant" published by Homer S. Pace. Many of those interested in accounting have long felt that insufficient expression is being given in books and magazines to the undertakings and the problems of the commercial and industrial accountant as distinguished from those of the accountant engaged in professional practice. Most accounting literature, and particularly the periodicals in the field, have been prepared primarily by and for those with either an academic or a professional attitude toward the subject. Their contributions to the science of accountancy have been notable ones, but in them stress has been laid on many points with which the accountant in business is not particularly concerned, while on the other hand many of the most vital and pressing problems of the accountant engaged in executive and operating work have received scant attention. Therefore a warm welcome seems assured for "The American Accountant," a new monthly magazine sponsored by Homer S. Pace, long known as a leader in accounting study, education and practice. The new magazine is designed for all those doing accounting work of any sort, and it aims to discuss accounting problems of all types, not merely those incident to professional practice.
