on the door of a room in a public building
having arisen, an application to that et-
feet was sent to the board of works. 1t
was returned on the ground that the
wrong department had been consulted.
The engineering department at Woolwich
was next tried, and with better success,
for In due course an Official travelled up to
London, at considerable cost to the tax
payers, to see what was required to be
done This was the preliminary to bust
ness. which, AFTER some delay appeared
in the form of a. mechanic, who put up
the pegs. Thus a small job, which might
have been done for few pence, cost as
many pounds in the interest of red tape.
A colonial official who held an app int
ment in a protectorate, was offered an
other in the Western Pacific, which he ac-
cepted. To get over the ground he had
been given an allowance which, it WIS
decided, was to be continued in his new
sphere Of work. Unfortunately no Sc
was not required in a group of widely
scattered coral islands, neither was for
age nor a groom. He, therefore, asked
the red tape fiend in Downing street If he
might keep a small yacht instead, as 9TH
erwise it would be impossible for him 10
get about. Permission was readily grant
ed and the Western Pacific official gayly
took up his new duties.
A Needed Explanation.
But he reckoned without req tape. III
making out the schedule Of his eXpenss
he wrote down so much for the wear and
tear OF the yacht, and SO much for the
skipper. Months later it came back 10
him with the irate demand of a red tape
clerk as to whether he supposed that the
government provided him with a pleasure
yacht? In justifying himself he pointed
out that unless he hired man TO look
after his yacht it might be stolen on his
in1a
he required someone to keep it clean. He
had merely used the word skipper for want
of better term. The explanation was
perfectly satisfactory, but he was there
after requested to write yacht so muca,
forage so much. 1t was more convenient!
Fortuna tely, when red tape comes IN
contact with common sense it is red tape
which goes to the wall A good story is
told of an American military secreta y
who devised a system which compe led
everyone who went on business to Gen.
Banks to procure ticket from member
of the staff, the presentation of which at
the door gained his admission. One day
a burly colonel of an Eastern regiment
came to the door of the private office at
headquarters and requested that his name
be given TO the General. Have you
ticketr echoed the colonel with scorn.
NO, sir, l haven't" you can't enter
here without one" was the reply. Sir,
said the Colonel when Gen. Banks be-
comes puppet show and 1 have % cents
to spare I'll buy a ticket to see him-not
before" He was admitted.
