is no provision made for the examination
Of bonds at any regular intervals, to de-
termine whether the amount is sufficient
or the sureties solvent, except in one in
stance-that Of the paymasters Of the
army, the law requiring that they be re-
newed each four years or oftener by the
order Of the President. A detailed exami-
nation of the bonds that are now On file
in the various auditors offices discloses
the fact that many of these bends have
been in force from 10 to Is years, and some
even longer, without any evidence that any
examination has ever been made of them
or any attention paid to the question OF
security.
There is an Average loss Of about
quarter Of the amount due from bondsmen
on bonds of the Post Office Department,
and about one-half for the sureties on
bonds given In other departments. There
should be a reduction in the amounts for
which bonds are required. They are out
of all proportion to the responsibility or
risk incurred. There seems to be no good
reason for requiring a bond for 100000 Of
the assistant treasurer at New York. or
s1J0,00O Of the treasurer In Washington.
1t seems unwiSe, and certainly unfair, to
require officials in responsible positions to
become insurers to the government for the
dishonesty of subordinate employees COM
pensated by the government
"A regular scale of bonds for subordinate
employees should be adopted, requiring them
to give bonds in certain amounts direct to
the United States. The discontinuance OF
personal bonds and the substitution there
for of bonds by companies organized to do
this character of business, would result in
an annual saving to the government Of at
least say $6S,000. This estimate is made
on the average Of the losses in the Post
Office Department for the last five years."
