USELESS RECORDS AND FILES,
Investigation in Progress at the War
Department

An investigation is in progress at the
War Department to ascertain what records
and papers on file are Of no further use and
may profitably be destroyed There are
some 200 boxes of reports and records In
the paymaster generals office which are of
no permanent value or historical interest
according to Colonel c. c. Sniffen, the act
ing paymaster general. Judge Advocate
General Davis reports as useless about 60
600 court-martial records dating from 1S4S
and some four cubic feet of summary court
reports, together with seven cubic feet Of
volumnous petitions made in behalf of Ser
geant John A. Mason, I'd Artillery tried in
1SS2 for attempting to kill Guiteau. There
are also voluminous documents, comprising
terS, postal cards, etc
The chief of engineers has found a large
quantity of manuscript reports, statements
and other documents which have outlived
their usefulness. In the ordnance depart
ment there are abstracts of reports esti-
mates, statements and duplicate returns
some of them dating as far back as 1S47,
and all of them should be burned saws Cen
eral Crozier General Greedy says that the
signal office files are encumbered with
thousands of letter press copies and per-
sonal reports and property returns which
should be destroyed. The adjutant gem
erals office contains a large quantity of
similar material, including the unsuccess-
full applications for appointment to West
Point and the army The quartermaster
general appears to have the largest useless
collection, including papers going back be-
fore the civil war. The surgeon general
has large quantity of blank forms and
property returns and requis;tions, some of
them dated as early as 1921. An unsuccess-
full effort was made last year to have en-
acted law which would permit the period
ical destruction of documents and records
which have outlived their usefulness, and
an effort to establish such a system will be
made again this year.
