M'CARL LAYS DOWN
RULES FOR MELLON
Insists on Fixed Channels for
Claims Sent General Ac-
counting Office.

Controller General McCarl, in let
ter to Secretary Mellon, has ruled
that all claims transmitted to the
General Accounting Office from the
Treasury Department must come
either through the Office of the Sec
retary, one of his assistants, a desig
mated official not below the status of
chief of a bureau, or other CORE
spending unit.
Secretary Mellon had protested that
certain procedure involving the sub
mission of a claim from the office of
the controller of the currency had
been proper, and the delegation of
authority TO such person was "neces-
sary, safe and buSineSsike." Mr..
McCari objected to this as contrary
to the interest of the United States"
and held that in the future he would
require that claims transmitted for
direct settlement from the office of
the controller of the currency show
proper official administrative action
accordingly"

COAST GUARD FUND
Controller Forbids Use in
Operating Seized Ships
Against SmuggIers.

Controller General McCarl in "A de-
ciSion made public yesterday, ruled that
the Coast Guard funds could not be
used to operate ships forfeited under
the new act of Congress, and which
the Government hopes to place in
service chasing the elusive rum
smuggler
The decision of the controller gen
eral will not serve to prevent the
use of such forfeited vessels, how
ever, as provision is made in the new
act that funds appropriated for the
enforcement of customs and prohibi-
tion laws may be employed for oper-
ating either ships or vessels, forfeited
and desired for this purpose.
Controllers Decision.
In his decision, which is "a fiat pro-
hibition against using any money out
of Coast Guard appropriations, the
controller, however, does not say a
word about the right of the Coast
Guard to operate such seized and for
feited ships, and the Treasury pro
ceeded today on the ground that it
could use money out of prohibition
and customs appropriations to run
the ships under command of the Coast
Guard.
The recent Capitalization of all
three Federal activities having to do
with the enforcement of prohibition
the Coast Guard, customs and prohi-
bition unit-under one head, Assistant
Secretary of the Treasury Andrews, it
is believed. will facilitate the work
ing out of the problem Of administra-
tion involved in the peculiar problem
now faced by the Treasury.
One basis on which the Treasury
