GREAT CONFUSION
IN U. S. TREASURY
Good OF Iowa Tells Of DiSCrep-
ancieS of Millions.

WASHINGTON - That the ac-
counts of the treasury department are
so muddled and it's bookkeeping so
far behind that the government is in
constant danger of serious monetary
loss, even if such loss has not already
occurred, has developed at the exec
utive hearings of subcommittee of
the house appropriations committee
in charge of the legislative appropri-
alton bill
Representative Good of Iowa said
there were discrepancies of several
millions in the ledger balances and
accounts with national banks.
The office force of John Burke, the
treasurer of the United States, is so
overwhelmed by bookkeeping work
that it is impossible to strike a treas
ury balance, and chaos exists.
