There Is, however always danger in

only as penalty upon honest men.
Moreover, no such law would hamper

There are other valuable laws relating

Governmental Commissions.
call attention to two government
commissions which have appointed
and which have already done excellent
work. The first Of these has TO do
with the organization of the scientific
work Of the government, which has
grown up wholly without plan and is
in consequence SO unwiscIy distributed
among the executive departments that
much of its effect Is lost for the lack
Of proper coordination This commits
sion's chief object Is to introduce a
planned and orderly development and
operation In the place of the III assert
ed and often ineffective grouping and
methods of work which have prevail
ed. This cannot bc done without leg
islatlOn, nor woUld It Dc feasible to
deal In detail with 50 complex an adj
ministrativc problem by specific pro-
visions Of law. I recommend that the
president be given authority TO ConCen-
trate related lines of work aud reduce
duplication by executive order through
transfer and consolidation of lines of
work.
The second committee, that on de
partment methods. was instructed TO in.
rcstigate and report upon the changes
needed to place the conduct of the eX.
ccutivc force of the government on
the most economical and effective ba-
Sis In the light of the hest modern
business practice. The committee has
made very satisfactory progress. An
tlquated practices and bureaucratic
ways have been abolished. and Il gen
eral renovation Of departmental meth
obs has been inauguratcd All that
can be done by executive order has al
ready been accomplished or will be
put Into effect In the near future. The
work of the main committee and It's
several assistant committees has pro
duccd wholesome awakening on the
part of the great body of officers and
employees engaged In government
work. In nearly every department and
cilicc there has been Il careful self in
spection for the purpose of rcmpdying
any defects before they could bc made
the subject Of adverse criticism This
has led individuals Ia wider study
OF the work on which they were en-.
gagged and this study has resulted In
Increasing their efficiency in their re
spcctivc lines Of work. There are rec
concentrations Of special Importance
from the committee on the subject of
personnel and the classification of sal
aries which will require Legislative ac-
ton before they can be put into eff.
