proposed in the report of the
Joint congressional commission, will
be considered at the next session of
congress. Legislation designed to
carry the proposed reorganization into
effect was introduced, however, to give
members of congress an opportunity to
study the plan in the summer.
The report recommends the estab-
lishment of a new department of edu-
cation and relief, and opposes the
consolidation Of the War and Navy de-
partments. Agencies now performing
work in the fields of public health,
education and the care of veterans
would be concentrated in the proposed
new department. The other recon-
mendations, briefly summarized, are:
Transfer to the Commerce depart
ment Of the bureau of mines, and the
patent office, now in the Interior de-
partment, the lake survey office and
the inland and coastwise waterways
service, now under the War depart
ment, and the national advisory COM
mittee for aeronautics

portation in the Commerce depart
