NEW PLAN TO SAVE
NATION THOUSANDS
ADMINISTRATION PROPOSES ONE
BUREAU TO BUY ALL
SUPPLIES.

WASHINGTON, April 3O.-Con-
gress will probably be asked next
winter to enact legislation providing
for the formation Of a bureau of gen.
eral supplies in the treasury depart
ment. the said bureau to purchase
practically all the supplies used by
the government in this city and else
where over the country. and in addi-
ton maintain a large shop in which
very much Of the governments Office
furniture will be made.
The proposed bureau will make
purchases aggregating millions of dol
lars in the course of each year. and
will take the place Of the several pur-
chasing bureaus now scattered
throughout the executive depart
ments. 1t is figured that the system
of Standardization that would follow
the formation Of the proposed bureau,
and the numerous economies that It
would be able to effect. would make
a saving to the government Of per-
haps several hundred thousand dol
lars year. as compared with present
costs.
Administration Endorses Plan.
The plan is to be laid before Secre-
tary McAdoo for his formal approval
at the earliest opportunity. 1t is said
in advance, however, that he is heart
lily in favor Of it. and that the matter
will be put up to congress with adj
ministration backing.
Every department Of the govern
ment. except the municipal govern
ment Of the District of Columbia. the
army. the navy, the government print
ing office and In part the bureau Of
engraving and printing, will come
under the jurisdiction of the new
bureau Of supplies. That bureau will
be charged with the work Of adver-
Using and contracting for and pur-
all supplies, material and
equipment for all the executive de-
partments and Independent bureaus
Of the government save as noted. no
matter where located, including tele-
phone, electric light and power serv-
ice. Its work will revolutionize the
buying and selling Of millions of dol
lars worth Of all sorts of supplies to
the government, from papers Of pins
to typewriters, pens, ink, delivery
etc.
The new bureau would be expected
to standardize all supplies. and pre-
pare an annual schedule of articles to
be purchased. This Standardization
would eliminate all unnecessary
grades and varieties of purchasable
objects.
The plan for the formation of the
new bureau is the direct outgrowth
Of the investigation that was made
year or two ago into the governments
methods Of purchasing supplies. 1t
was then discovered that the system
in force (many said 1t was an entire
ack of system) was the most ex-
pensive that could be devised. and
had almost nothing to recommend 1t.
The report Of the investigating COM
nittee was that a general supply
bureau should be created, to have
complete charge Of all such work. the
thought of having the bureau take
charge Of the making and repairing
II government Office furniture was
alter development.
