 IN HIS REPORT
Recommends That His De- partment Be Furnished with Two Sea-G0ing
 Vessels.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 7.-Expansion
 of the Bureau of Foreign and Do-
 mestic Commerce to enable it to give
 effective aid to American manufac-
 turers and merchants is taking full
 advantage of after-the-war world trade opportunities is the chief rec |pmmendation of Secretary Redfield in his annual report made public recently.
 The Secretary also reiterates his approval of the proposed development of a Government-Owned intracoastal waterway to link up the great cities of the East, from the Lakes to the coast and from the Atlantic sea- board.
 Urgent needs of the Department for the future enumerated by Secretary Redfield are: Two sea-going vessels and wire drag launches for the Coast and Geodetic Survey, and officers and crews for them. Larger clerical force in the field service of the Steamboat Inspection Service and in the office of the Coast and Geodetic Survey, together with more draughtsmen and computers at more adequate salaries in the later service.
 Provision for housing the army of clerks needed during the three year period of handling the census of 1920, which will be in full swing by next July.
 A laboratory aquarium for the Blu reau of Fisheries. A Government-owned commerce building to house all services except the Bureau of Standards and the laboratory aquarium. An assistant to the Secretary of Commerce to aid in the greatly in creased volume of work. Estimates for the fiscal year of 1920 aggregate $39727,740. A large part of the increase over the current year of $21,571,675 is for the Blu reau of the Census to provide for taking the Fourteenth Decennial Cen sus.
