Commission decided that ii would do
its work cheaper and better by own

concurred in by Mr.. Root who was
then Secretary OF War. II was shown
that there was an absence OF normal
competition and that the prices paid
were eNOrbitart. The total was
amounting to s225 600 annually and the
Government was not getting the worth
of its money Accordingly. s300. 600 were
set aside for the installation Of
plant. and the start was made toward
the building up OF an institution in the
far eastern tropical seas that may be
used as model along many lines
