  1. All moneys belonging to a soldier and coming to the hands of a Board of Trustees in pursuance of these regulations or of any power of attorney granted by that soldier shall, except so far as such moneys are, in the opinion of that Board, presently required for expenditure in pursuance of such regulations or power of attorney, be deposited in the Post Office Savings-bank or with the Public Trustee so as to form part of the common fund of the Public Trust Office: Provided that the Board of Trustees may, with the approval of the National Efficiency Board, from time to time withdraw any moneys so deposited if in the opinion of the Board of Trustees such moneys are required by it for expenditure as aforesaid.

  2. (1.) Every Board of Trustees acting under a power of attorney executed pursuant to these regulations shall keep such accounts as the National Efficiency Board may from time to time prescribe.

At the close of each year or of such other period as the National Efficiency Board may appoint, the Board of Trustees shall prepare and submit to the National Efficiency Board a balance-sheet signed by the auditor, together with a statement of receipts and expenditure for the same period, and such other statements as the National Efficiency Board may require.

  3. Any power of attorney executed pursuant to these regulations for the management of any property as a farm, may authorize the Board of Trustees to manage such farm jointly with any other farm (whether a soldier’s property or not), and in any such case the expenses of management shall be divided between the several properties in such proportions as the Trustees think proper.

  4. The National Efficiency Board may from time to time make such rules for the guidance, direction, and assistance of Boards of Trustees as it may deem necessary for the efficient exercise and performance by such Boards of the powers and duties conferred or imposed on them by these regulations or by any power of attorney executed pursuant thereto, and every such Board of Trustees shall in the exercise of its functions be subject in all respects to the control and direction of the National Efficiency Board.
