Q great variety Of changes viii be
forthcoming from time to time. It is
not in the best public interest to con-
summate q comprehensive reorganiza-
ton at one fell swoop.
In fact, the reorganization should be
undertaken gradually and systematic
ally. It should be predicated on .
sound and definite theory Of govern
ment. It should be effected as the
in the actual processes Of reorganiza-
ton.
A year Is really brief period for an
undertaking SO momentous. However. 1t
will effect savings, over the years, of an
inestfmable amount. Just as the con-
solidation OF veterans activities under
q single head . few years ago has since
then brought economies that have aver.
aged between $10.000,000 and Sl5,000,-
900 annually. But, above and beyond
these considerations, it should give the
Nation, when 1t Is finally completed, Q
workable, up-tosdate executive estab-
ishment.
Red Tape" Necessary.
The President cannot eliminate all
the "red tape" about which there al
ways has been a welter of complaint.
A certain amount Of it is necessary In
the public service. II manipulation and
sometimes fraud are to be avoided.
much OF the Governments work must
be surrounded by checks and balances.
But by clear-cut procedure the Presi-
dent will be able to make for efficiency
and economy. Much of the waste in
the past and even at the present time
has been due TO the EYoc,Itiva opd the
Congress being bound, respectively to
recommend and appropriate funds ade-
quate for all functions and activities
OF the Government as established by
law-the unnecessary along with the
essential
Now the unnecessary may be gradu-
ally winnowed out. The hodge -podge
OF aims In certain administrative
branches can be eliminated. For in
stance, 1t no longer will be necessary,
as It has been up to the current year,
