of Management of Agencies

The present administrative machin-
cry for directing public welfare activ-
tiles in the District for which Con-
gress appropriates 81 500 900 annually,
is described as curious jumbling
of managing control, with overlapping
jurisdiction and divided responsibility"
by the Commission on Public Welfare
Legislation in the opening section of
its final report, a preliminary abstract
of which was made public last night.
Tc correct this condition, the COM
mission recommends the abolition of
the boards of the three principal well

the Board of Children's Guardians and
the board of trustees of the Training
School for Girls-and the correlation
of their activities under a single new
board.

duced in the House by Representative
