Harding Seeks Conferences.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.
Especial Despatch to The Reformer.)
Copyright 1921.
WASHINGTON, March 29.-The pas
sion for coordination seems to have
seized the Harding administration in
earnest. Scarcely a cabinet meeting is
held but that some plan is discussed for
recognizing different branches of the
government service and consolidating bu-
reaus. When congress gets back here in
a fortnight, the executive viii begin CON
ferences with legislative leaders, so that
laws may be framed permitting tlexibility.
Thus far discussion has centered on
three important phases of government
service wherein effort is said to be too
widely distributed. First, the handling Of
communications including wireless, ca
bles, telegraphs; second, the absence of
any general manager for the different
Investigations bureaus and detective
agencies of the government, whereby
fraud and other violations of the many
laws of the United States are inyesti-
gated and third, the lack of a general
supervisory bureau or department caring
for the different fleets of the government,
outside the navy, such as the revenue cut
ton service, the life saving service, the
coast and geodetic service and kindred
activities. All use ships, but equip them
separately. and are more or less in com
petition with each other, both in scales of
pay and the purchases of supplies.
Cable Control Problem.
The need for some definite organization
which shall take charge of the communi-
cations of the United States has been
emphasized as consequence of the sew
eral controversies in which the govern
ment is engaged. There is. for example,
the contest with Japan over possession of
q cable base IN the island of zap. Then
there is the naval radio situation, inyOlv-
ing certain equities for the public as be-
tween the use of the naval facilities TO
supplement private operations and the
encouragement on the other hand. of
private companies of purely American
ownership. The legal fight between the
western Union telegraph and the govern
ment over the landing of a cable in
Miami, Florida, and the entire cable Situa-
ton as it affects South America, opens
up such intricate questions of vital i'm
portance to the future trade of the United
states that no one branch of the govern
ment is authorized to handle the entire
subject of communications under present
statutes. Cabinet officers recognize that
the cable and wireless interests of the
American people and their government re-
quire more protection nowadays than
