HEAD Of BUREAU
OF MINES RESIGNS
Van H. Manning Retires From
Interior Department.
Served a. Years.

Van H. Manning, director of the
United States bureau of mines Of the
Department Of the Interior. has
rendered his resignation, effective
June /, to President Wilson.
Mr. Manning is to become director
of research with the recently or
ganized American Petroleum Insti-
tute.
In his letter aof resignation to the
President. Mr.. Manning said, in part
1T will be with reluctance and
connection with the Department of
the Interior after thirty-four years
the opportunity-of being. able to con-
tinue in another capacity the work
for the advancement Of purposes fos-
tered by the department that has
been the chief factor In determining
my decision to resign.
I take this opportunity to express
my sincere appreciation OF the ccRfi-
dence that you have reposed in me as
q public official. and Of the cordial
cooperation of the departmental ex-
ecutives whom l have been able to
serve. Especially I appreciate your
constant help In my efforts to develop
welfare Of the public, the advance
ment Of the mineral industry, and the
safety Of the 100000 workers who
contribute to the success Of that in
dustry.
Urges More OdeQuate Pay.
'I feel very deeply that there ought
to be more adequate compensation for
the scientific and technical men in the
government service so that none of
them may be compelled to accept po-
sitions on the outside.
MANY of these scientific men are
of fine type for government work:
care little for the commercial field:
take an intense professional interest
in their tasks and are Of inestimable
value to the government"
Mr.. Manning has been with the De-
partment of the Interior thirty-four
years in various scientific and execu-
tive capacities. During the past year
his attention has been directed par
ticularly to conservation Of oil and
gas in the United States and he has
been a prominent member of commit
tees working toward conservation Of
these natural resources. Mr.. Manning
has been instrumental in promoting
safety devices for mine workers.
