So much has been said, not onlJ
BY Republicans but even by SOM
Democrats, about the enormous
cost of the special examiners VIII,
have been employed for some tim'
to investigate suspected frauds OF
the pension roll that the Secretar,
of Interiors statement on the sub
ject, in his annual report, is deci
dedly interesting as we'll as timely
The much talked of special exam
liners have unearthed actual fraud
in Iowa. New Mexico and Virgins
alone, which saved the government
more money than the entire cost O
salary and maintenance OF all TIL
special examiners employed by tn
pension bureau, to say nothing O
cases elsewhere. SO the special ex
aminers are money savers for tn
government instead of money vast
ers. Secretary Smith also calls al
tention to the fact that in maxim
suspensions he has simply followe'
the policy that has always guide
the pension bureau in dealing wit
similar cases.
