and was forwarded to the Commission
ers with letter from Herbert d. Brown,
chief of the bureau, which said, in
part. "the Bureau of Efficiency was
careful to schedule the items required
for each institution. Realizing the
chaotic condition which would result If
equipment for all these institutions were
shipped to one point, this bureau urged
in its letter of october IL, 1928, to the
director Of public welfare, that ship
ping instructions be given for each Of
the institutions.
Subsequent events indicate that the
efforts of this bureau to avoid chaos
and waste In connection with the re-
ceipt OF this property awaited nothing
The Board of Public Welfare issued
specific instructions for the shipment
to Lorton, Va, of all of the supplies and
equipment to the various institutions
In order that there might be no mis-
takes as to the intention Of the Board
Of Public Welfare to have this ship
ment made to one point, the shipping
instructions requested that the property
be sent all in one shipment

that due to the character of the prop
erty and the dif1iculty Of identification,
1t is impossible to estimate the amount
Of time which will be required to assert
and distribute the remainder. It Is
certain. however, that the failure to
ship this property direct to each insti-
tuition will result not only in delay in
placing it in use, but also in q loss to
the District of Columbia in the form of
the labor required to sort, repack and
reship it.
IT believe that had ordinary business
judgment been used in this case, the
Board of Public Welfare would have
issued shipping instructions for each
institution.
Had a competent business manager
for the Board of Public Welfare been

peated recommendations of this bureau,
I believe that the confusion and waste
would have been avoided"

PLOT IN RUMAN|A
Several Arrested in Military
Coup-Former Colonel
Named as Leader.
Rr the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
VIENNA, July 9.-The Peasant gov
eminent of Rumania, headed by Juliu
MANU-, premier, appeared today to have
weathered successfully a projected mill
tary coup d'etat. and to be intrenched
more firmly than ever at Bucharest.
AS result of strict censorship the
only direct advices obtainable were con-
tanned in an official government COM
munique, which said:
Some civil agitators, known for a
long time to the authorities as men
without scruple or worth, organized a
ridiculous plot against the form Of the
state, without causing the least disorder.
THE head conspirator Is former Col.
August Stojka. They could achieve
nothing except the adhesion of two
officers, Capt. Cambria and Lieut..
GeorgeScu. Some factory workmen also
joined the plotters. All are arrested.
Sensational Reports Denied.
Investigations are being continued.
All sensational reports of disorders are
without foundation and perfect quiet
reigns in the country. Order is secured
in all particulars and the army is as
ever at its post"
Other reports, notably those received
from travellers arriving here from the
Rumanian capital. were more disquiet-
ing, but even they indicated the gov
eminent had the situation well in hand.
There was some conjecture as to q
possible connection of former Crown
Prince Carol with the complot. Paris re-
ports said he was preparing to leave
that city for Bled. Jugoslavia, where he
would Sc ehis son, the boy King Michael
while in other quarters there were re-
ports he was expected at Veldes, South
ern Slavia, to see his mother, Queen
Marie.
Delayed Making Arrests.
The version of the affair generally
accepted here was that a well bolsterec
plot existed to overthrow the Manu-
government, reinstating the Liberal re-
gime which it ousted, or military
dictatorship. The government learned
of the plot some time back, but refrained
from making arrests until the conspira-
tors were ready to strike and all we're
obtainable.
On Saturday night the authorities
arrested Gen. Brosteanu, commander OF
one of the frontier armies, and about
40 others, including a number of civil
ian officials, who were said to have
handed arms and ammunition to the
rebels from the arsenal.
Among names mentioned in connec-
ton with the plot was that of former
Minister General Angelescu, who was
said to have been a prime mover, with
the object of making himself dictator
until further developments, which might
or might not have placed Carol on the
throne. It was said the conspiratorS
hoped for the support of former Minis
ter Madarescu, former adjutant to King
Ferdinand; Paul Angelescu and former
Minister Miercescu.
