AGENCIES REPORTS
DRAST|CALLY CUT.
Douglas Limits Printing of
D. c. Government Work
During Fiscal Year.

Budget Director Douglas has used his
pruning knife in heavy fashion in a
decision requiring the District Com
missioners to limit drastically the print
ing Of annual reports of District gov
eminent agencies during the past fiscal
year. 1t was revealed today.
The slashes were ordered by Doug
las, despite a protest by spokesmen for
the District government who succeeded,
however, in persuading the Federal
budget officer to relent somewhat since
they found he had not provided for
printing Of one large section of reports
which Is required by Congress.
Statistics Eliminated.
Even So it was stated today. the re-
suit will be that large quantity Of
statistical information informing the
public not only of the actions Of Dis
trict officials, but of conditions which
developed during the past year will
have to be eliminated.
Extensive correspondence on the mat
ter revealed a comparative small sum
of money was involved. Last year the
cost of printing reports on District gov
ernment agencies amounted to s5,645.
This was spent for the printing of $500
copies Of annual reports. amounting in
all to $50 pages in length. This IN it.
self was a considerable reduction in
the $3.50 spent for printing the 1881
reports which amounted to 906 pages IN
length.
Early in September of this year Di-
yorfor nos,o1oc y,otifioI tho CpyorniSSioy,.
ers the new reports for the 1888 fiscal
year must be held down to 100 pages.
It was discovered he had not provided
for printing of the report of the super
intendent of insurance here, as required
by law. This report is of some length
since it must contain annual statements
Of insurance companies licensed here
last year.
After the Commissioners had filed
with Douglas q brief on this subject,
the Federal budget officer agreed the
,, District could print not to exceed $50
pages Of reports, less than half the
number allowed last year. He also per-
mitted the printing of the reports Of
the Public Utilities Commission and the
Insurance Department separately, but
, ruled all other reports must be con-
tanned in one volume. The number OF
copies which may be printed, in all
was limited to 1900, as compared with
$500 last year.
Health Department Cut.
The Health Department was limited
! to IS pages, Public Library 10 pages,
i public schools 80 pages, public welfare
| % pages, finance 13 pages, and the
Commissioner statement covering gen.
| eral activities % pages. The Utilities
Commission report is to be limited to
| 80 and the Insurance Department to %
pages.
As a result of all this. Maj. Daniel ].
Donovan, District auditor, has suggested
| to the District Commissioners that
mimeograph machines be employed fol
the printing of much additional infor-
| nation, principally of statistical ma
ture, concerning libraries, vital statis-
tics of the Health Department. District
financial conditions and the important
subject of public welfare conditions.
| Such information, District officials
believe, the public Is entitled to have
and will demand.
