GOVERNMENT IS
SLOW TO CHANGE
Reorganization Plan VIII
Take Years to Change

TWO YEARS PROGRAM

Washington Big bodies move slow
". That is an axiom Of science.
The United States government is a
big body. That is the boast of every
individual connected with it and of
every patriotic citizen. Therefore
The public must not expect too much
in the way Of an early OVERLAPPING
Of government departments and bu-
raus, promised by the incoming admin
istration in the interest both Of efic-
iency and economy.
Figures Two Years.
For instance, Congressman G. r
Reavis, who has before Congress the
only proposal to date which would set
in motion the machinery necessary for
reorganization, says it viii be at least
two years before any proper program
Of reorganization can be formulated

tapping functions of departments and
even Of bureaus within departments. =

amounts to not less than $500, 900.

"Yet enormous as the waste is, and
as it is to put ones finger on individ.

and waste to undertake to correct the
situation piece-meal. 1t can only be
done properly after comprehensive

Reavis has introduced resolution
calling for the appointment of a spe.

FIUME BLOCKADED
BY ITALIAN NAVY
Formal Action is Taken to Enforce
Orders Of italy Against Poet
Leader at Fiume.
(By Associated Press)

London Italian government forces
commanded by General Caviglia and
Adj. Milo have established close
blockade of Fiume by land and sea,
and it seemed possible today that
fighting might be reported at anytime.
Not only has the city Of Fiume been
isolated from the outside world, but
the islands of Arbe, San ARGOS and
Veglia, which recently were occupied
by d'Annunzian legiannaires have
been blockaded. Conditions of recog-
nized gravity have arisen since Capt.
Gabrielle d'Annunzzio announced he
would resist enforcement Of treaty of
Rapallo. In answer to an ultimatum
sent him by Gen. Caviglia he has de-
clared he will fight against enforce
ment of the treaty until his demands
are met.

the Oldest newspaper in England, and
the only one until 1896, has just in

two schillings. The increase has been
made by the government, which issues
