J. Reuben Clark Jr. · 1949 April General Conference · 1949-04-06
Official printed text of the One Hundred Nineteenth Annual (April) General Conference financial statement and sustaining of officers (April 6, 1949), as published in the Church Conference Report (Church History Library call no. M205.1 C536 v. 1-69 1902-1970). Page images were consulted through the Church History Catalog record and the Church History Library preservation scan on the Internet Archive (conferencereport1949a). Heavyweight review collated the narrative and list sections page-by-page against that scan. Part I (Cash Expenditures Budgeted from Church General Funds) is reproduced in the printed report as a photographic financial table that OCR did not capture legibly; a transcriber's note marks that gap. Part II/III financial line-items and the sustaining-officer roster follow the printed columnar layout. Title is supplied.
Authoritative CHL catalog record (call no. M205.1 C536) for the printed Conference Report; canonical source.

Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
Heavyweight pass: source upgraded to the Church History Catalog record for the April 1949 Conference Report (M205.1 C536) with the Internet Archive preservation scan kept as the page-by-page collation witness; narrative OCR and layout artifacts corrected; Part I photographic table left as documented gap; financial lists and sustaining roster collated against scan. Session/music bleed at close removed.
