of the special examiners who have

investigate suspected frauds on the
pention roll that Secretary Smiths
statement On the subject, in his an
nual report, is decidedly interesting
as we'll as timely. The much talk
ed Of special examiners have un-
earthed actual frauds in Iowa, New
Mexico and Virginia alone, which
saved the government more money
than the entire cost OF salary and
maintenance Of all the special ex-
aminers employed by the Penson
Bureau, and to say nothing Of cas-
elsewhere. So the special examin-
ers are money savers for the gov
eminent inste ad Of money MASTERS
Secretary Smith also calls atten-
ton to the fact that in making
suspensions he has simply follow
ed the policy that has always guild
ed the Pension Bureau in dealing
with similar cases. The report en-
dorses the application eff Arizona
New Mexico and Utah for state
hood.
