COUNTERFEIT BAND
MEMBERS HUNTED
Confessions in FIotation of
$500, 900 in $40 Bills Spur
United States Operatives.


CHICAGO, March s.-Secret service
men in San Francisco, New York,
Detroit and several other cities today
were working swiftly to round up
members of a band which foated
$500. 900 in spurious $50 bills, as a
result of confessions obtained here
from six men held after series of
raids. The printing plant also was
sought.
The counterfeit money had been
passed in a number of American
cities, including St. Louis, New Or
leans, Boston, Pittsburgh and Cleve-
land, and also in Budapest, Hungary.
where two Austrians were arrested
and given long terms two months
ago. State Department officials there
obtained the leads which resulted in
the Chicago raids.
Detectives Were Warned.
Three secret service men, warned
death would be their portion If they
BETRAYED the band, posed as Texas
gamblers and bought counterfeit
money from the circulation depart
ment" of the outfit. Information they
obtained resulted in nine raids yester-
day Six places raided were an
nounced by officers, but three were
kept secret, presumably because it
was hoped to obtain further informa-
ton there.
Tony Carona, described as the head
of the circulation department" and
his alleged chief aide, Samuel
Romano, were two of those arrested.
but officers said only six were held
after questioning by secret service
men.
Planned an Assassination.
A member of the band Saturday
told one of the secret service men,
who ostensibly was one of the organ
ization, that the gang planned
assassination of one member who,
they believed. had reported them to
the Government.
The bogus bills all bear the serial
number "B 311" over the signature of
Frank White, treasurer Of the United
States. They are imitation gold
certificates bearing Washington's por-
trait. and are engraved upon bleached
one.dollar bills.

DISTRICT OFFICIALS
T0FACE CENSURE
Brown Hints Neglect of Duty
W;II Be Charged in Report
on Traffic Bureau.

The report of the Bureau of Eff.
cheney on the Traffic Bureau of the
District Government, growing out OF
disclosures of the administration OF
Col. /. c. Moller, assistant traffic direc-
tor, will be completed about April /,
and will probably contain censure OF
certain District officials for neglect
of duty" although the investigators
have discovered nothing criminal
against any District official, Herbert
ID. Brown. chief of the Bureau OF FL
ficiency, said today.
THIS report will be along neutral
lines. and will show that Col. Moller
was not the only one who made mis-.
takes It will not absolve any one,
Mr.. Browne continued. Representa-
tiyes of the Grouse Kinds Co.. which
supplied the traffic signal lights are In
Washington comforting with District
officials and the Bureau OF Efficiency.
viii Cover Whole District.
This, however, will not be the eli
max of the survey of the District Gov
eminent, because the Bureau of Eff
ficiency intends to continue to do just
what Chairman Madden of the House
appropriations committee recommend
ed. cover the whole District service
with the cooperation of the District
Commissioners, which has been as
sured.
AS this calls for an intensive study
of 40 or so units of the Govern nent
establishment, the work of the Bureau
OF Efficiency with the District Com
missioners will probably continue
through next Winter.
For example, the situation with re-
gard to quality of paper furnished Tor
permanent records of the District
shows that very inferior grades have
been supplied. Using this as clue
the Bureau of Efficiency will make a
careful study of the entire purchasing
system of the District government
with a view to insuring that the peo-
pie get just what they pay for. and
with an effort made to find way to
force the contractors to pay back
what they have "swindled" the people
out of, Mr.. Brown said.
Prompt Reports Planned.
Just as fast as any of these studies
are completed the Bureau of Efficiency
will make a report with recommends
tions to the Commissioners, and Chair
man Gibson of the special subcommit-
tee of the House District committee
that has been investigating the munic-
ipal administration also will be fur
nished with copy. This will be done
so that whatever improvements in
methods seem desirable may be
promptly put into effect as rapidly as
possible.
When Congress reassembles in De-
cember a number of definite proposals
for appropriations will be ready for
submission to Chairman Madden of the
House appropriations committee. as he
requested, and another batch of legis-
lative recommendations will be SUBJ
mitted to Chairman Zihlman of the
House District committee and to Sem
ator Capper, chairman of the Senate
District committee, for new laws that
may seem to the Bureau of Efficiency
to be necessary for the more efficient
transaction of the District business.

General McCarl has abolished the pass
system and guard force at. the doors

restrain a departure before closing

transfer to other more productive
work.
Section chiefs will be held re-
sponsible for the quantity and quail
ity of work" under the new system
abolishing the guard and pass force.
"One is happiest when fully occu-
pied" said Mr.. McCarl, in an office

fore 430, other than during the lunch
or other authorized periods--the last
80 minutes being fully as important
as any other like period in the day"
