President Roosevelt, in the interest
OF economy Of the public money and OF
his owp time. has started a vigorous
reform in the matter of reducing with
in reason the unconscionable and grow
ing bulkiness of the United States Gov
ernment reports. He now protests in
his own behalf and the public's against
the abuse, and Secretary CortelyOu has
written to the heads Of the departments
to the effect that the tendency to issue
unwieldly and extravagant reports
must be stopped. The President
thinks there is much useless matter
and a large number of unnecessary
and expensive illustrations included in
many OF the reports and documents
published; that many are issued at
great expense, which accomplish no
practical good; and that there is too
much public printing generally" The

LAWRENCE. Mass, Nov. LIN n
speech here last night Secretary OF
the Navy Moody said:
TN n speech at Madison I stated
that under the Dinsiey law there
was practically a duty on anthracite
and that that duty was inadycrtent-
" placed In the act. Both state
meuts have been challenged, and al
though the subject u somewhat
hackneyed, I desire 70 take the oc-
casion 10 affirm my statements and
give the reasons upon which they
were based. Anthracite for some
time prior 10 the passage OF the
Dineley law was free OF duty. As
that bill left the house. anthracite
was atili upon the free list, but
certain changes we're made In the
senate which altered the situation
materially and the senate amend
menta finally became law"
Tho secretary then gave the his
tory OF the amendments TO the act
and argued that their form showed
that they were not Intended by con
Fress to operate as they arc now
