PRINTING OFFICE
WASTING MONEY,
Responsiveness
Must Cut Out Overtime on Jobs
Unnecessarily Marked az
Rush Orders.

The Government Printing Office is
costing s300, 900 more a year than II
should because of the payment OF
overtime as the result o. me disturb
ance Of the orderly progress OF its
work. according to a report made 10
department heals today by Director
OF the Budget Dawes.
Dawes stated that survey OF the
printing office had revealed the fact
that rush work" ordered~b by depart
ment heads had resulted In the de-
struction of the efficient and economi-
cal management of the office.
Letter to Officials.
In a letter to the heads OF depart
ments and bureaus. General Dawes
said that a survey OF the situation
had revealed the following facts.
II. One of the evils and difficulties
with which the Public Printer has TO
contend is the handling OF what Is
commonly called rush work. BY TINS
is meant the custom OF giving pr.
GRITTY to certain orders os- >aher
work In the printing office. Inv eff.
Gent and economical management or
tho printing office requires that the
orders, so far as Is possible, be exc
cuted in the order of their receipt. To
vary very frequently or widely from
this order means the arrangement OF
any plans made by the mechanical
execution of the work.
"2. This evil is more serious and
costly than In generally understood.
II disturbs the orderly progress OF
the work Of the printing office. and re-
suits I'm a great deal of overtime be-
ing paid that otherwise would be un'
necessary. An accurate account OF
the cost of this feature has been kept
and the amount involved Is over $780,
900 annually.
To Use Judgment.
80. The Public Printer and the Blu
reau of the Budget are well aware
that occasionally there exist legitimate
and valid reasons for giving priority
to some work over other work that is
in the office. Where such a valid
reason actually exists, the Public
Printer will do everything he can to
comply with such requests 1t Is our
belief, however. that greater part
Of this evil is occasioned by neglect
and inattention. Regular forms are
allowed to reach too nearly the point
of exhaustion before a new supply fs
ordered. New work In contemplation
is delayed too long before placing II
In the hands of the Public Printer. For
one department to insist on a priority
being given to It's work Is unfair to
the other departments, for IT means
delay In the work for the other de-
partments.
-. The departments and independ'
ent establishments now have a repre-
sentative on the Permanent Confer
ence on Printing. formed some weeks
ago. IT Is the belief OF this bureau
that the matter mentioned above
should be referred to that representa-
tive and that he should have an'
thority, under responsibility to his
chief. to pass on the question of the
necessity for rush work, and that such
orders should receive his approval be
fore they are transmitted to the
Public Printer.

crat, North Carolina, countered the
republican move with a PROPOSE

tor Penrose tried to prevail on his
opponent to set an earlier date,
fearing a pocket veto. Senator
Williams, democrat, Mississippi,
however, announced he would OBJ
ject to any unanimous consent.
Senator Townsend, Michigan, re-
publican, called for consideration
of the post office appropriation bill
and there were demands for a vote,
but the motion met defeat.
Then followed an hour of debate
unusual in the senate. Senators
clashed in their efforts to obtain
recognition. Senator Johnson, re-

attack against the cloture and as
sailed all who favored it.

After the vote, Mr.. Penrose took
up claims that the tariff bill would

opinion that 1--WE shall have better

Washington, Feb. 2.-ShovinG
aside all pending legislation, thA
senate voted today to continue con-
sideration of the Fordney emer-
gency tariff bill. The gates were
opened for oratory when cloture
petition was voted down, 36 to 80,
mastering far less than the neces-
sary two-thirds majority.
In a session marked by political
jockeying, attempts were made by
each side to lead the other into
pitfalls. Republican leaders sought
to avoid cloture, but the democrats
challenged that it be brought in
and then marshalled their forces
defeating it promptly Minority
members then sought a unanimous
consent agreement fixing date for
a vote on the tariff, only to have
one of their own rank enter OBJ
lection.
AS it stands, the measure has
precedence except from IL to 2
O'Clock. There were hints thrown
out, however, that the end was not

ment of the tariff bill by appropria-
ton measures might come at any
time, or that an attempt to. obtain

The stoppage of liquor withdraw

The order does not apply to with

are permitted to make Withdrawals
