From the Memo...
PURPOSE: Remove a technical term that has legal meaning and replace the term with more general language in both the National Bylaws and the Standard Chapter Articles of Association.
RATIONALE: To clarify the intent of what a chapter in good standing should do on an annual basis. An audit legally refers to a specific process by a credentialed individual. This change reflects common practice among chapters and allows for someone who is not an authorized signature on the chapter’s account(s) to review the Chapter’s finances without being a CPA to make sure they have safeguards in place to ensure healthy financial operations.
SUBMITTED BY: National Finance Committee.

Hmm. Not really sure on that, but they certainly were there by the 1950s. (I remember one from that time period). I'm just trying to imagine censoring the T&Ts that should be added to the national APO website to delete those pictures, the horrors...
