SERVICE
TO BE REORGANIZED

WASHINGTON. Jan. 13.-The treasury
departments tentative plan for the re-
organization of the customs service, II
was learned today. contemplates tho
abolition Of all customs naval officials
and surveyors of customs. confining the
port administration 10 collectors and
deputy collectors.
1t is also the departments intention ia
deprive the collectors at ports along the
great lakes and the Canadian oordor OF
their present perqulsites from the sale
OF manifest blanks and TO turn this reve-
nue. into the treasury.
When former President Chester A. Ar
thur was collector at New York. he like
others, was paid on a commission and
fee basis, and his COMPENSATION is said
TO have reached over 500. 900 a year.
This situation drew the attention of con-
gress and all 'seaports" were placed on
a strictly salary basis. The principle.
however. never has been extended TO
some lake and Canadian border ports.
In reducing the existing 16o customs
districts to less than fifty. the treasury
departments plan provides for placing
each district in charge OF collector and
each port In charge OF a deputy collector.
No existing port VIII be abolished and
many sub ports Will he made ports.
