MACHINE TO DO THE WORK
MANY BUREAU EMPLOYEES MAY
LOSE JOBS.
Bank Notes Trimmed and Numbered
in One 0peration-Suggested
by Chairman Tawney.

A suggestion made by Representative
Tawney OF Minnesota, chairman OF the
House committee on appropriations,
which has just been put into effect at the
bureau OF engraving and printing. will
save the government $4,000 q year in
the printing OF its bank notes. Incl
dentally 40 men now employed In the
bureau Of engraving and printing and in
the Treasury Department will lose their
jobs.
Some time ago Mr.. Tawney suggested
to Director Ralph OF the bureau OF en-
craving and printing that the trimming
OF the bank notes and the placing upon
them OF the serial numbers. numeral and
seal be simp lifted and done In one opera
ton instead OF three. Mr.. Ralph did not
know that this could be done. In fact, he
was inclined to think otherwise. But,
urged by Mr.. TAwney. he had a number
OF engineers employed by various firms In
connection with the manufacture OF ma
chinery of this kind put on the job.
The new machine reached the bureau
Of engraving and printing last week, and
was put into operation for the first time
today. This afternoon Director Ralph
sent an enthusiastic telephone message to
Mr.. Tawney saying that the machine
works like a charm" Then Mr.. Tawney.
tho House not being In session, journeyed
down to the bureau to see the result OF
his suggestion in operation.
