BUREAUS ANNOUNCE CO.ORDINA-
TON OF WORK FOR Bet
TER RESULTS.

Washington, D. c., March 7.-Repre-
sentatives of the various government
bureaus of investigation and secret
service were called into conference
today at the department Of justice to
discuss means of co-ordinating their
work and eliminating duplication in
the ferreting out of enemy agents.
These meetings have been held
weekly for nearly two months, it was
disclosed today, although heretofore
care has been taken to maintain Sc
crecy. Officials finally consented to
publication of the facts after it be-
came evident that propaganda is be-
ing conducted throughout the country
for some sort of consolidation of the
bureaus.
Represented at these conferences
are the department of justice, bureau
Of investigation. the largest of the
governments secret service agencies,
the intelligence bureaus of the army
navy and state departments, and the
treasury's customs bureau and secret
service
At these conferences, representa-
tives of the different bureaus discuss
particular phases of espionage cases
in which they are interested and OBJ
tain suggestions or side lights on the
situation from heads of other bureaus
which may have conducted incidental
inquiry into the cases. These dis.
cussions. the participants say. have
demonstrated the need for close CO.
ordination of the bureaus, but have
emphasized that each has its own par
ticular field and that the overlapping
OF activity is comparatively slight.
The most marked community of in
terest is said to have developed be-
tween the bureaus and several of
them are daily exchanging reports Of
work done.
