APftiL 27, 1950 ] What the Hoover Report Department of the Interior Means to You Present "disastrous conflicts and overlaps in the Department of the Interior cost the taxpayers enormous sums annually," the Hoover Commission revealed. Back in 1924 the Joint Congressional and Presidential Committee on Reorganization recommended that most Federal Government conservation and construction activities be consolidated in-a. single Cabinet department. The proposal was again made ty President Hoover in 1932, and a=-ain by President Roosevelt's Committee on Administrative Management in 1&37. "Had such a department been created 25 years ago," the Commission declared, "hundreds of millions of dollars would have . been saved to the puolic over these years, Today it is a complete necessity." The Interior Department's Bureau of Reclamation and the Army's Carps' of Engineers are in constant conflict. They are rivals in the business of building and operating multipurpose dams for flood, control, navigation, irrigation, domestic water eupply, hydroelectric power. They duplicate each other for local support at the other's surveys and other activities, try to outbid each Federal Government's expense. They prodigally waste natural resources by failing, between them, to make the best possible development of the nation's river basins. The lameutable division of authority for public works has also resulted in over-all Government failure to check adequately on the worth of proposed construction projects and to determine their proper timing. Economists agree that the Government should hold its public works to a minimum in prosperous times, reserving them to stimulate the economy when private jobs a, n d construction begin to slack dft. But such planning and control are difficult when several rival agencies are attempting to promote their individual building programs. REPAIRS "Sse tbe Marks Bro*.** RADIO SALES CORP. 32?

At the suggestion of President Truman, former President Herbert Hoover was named chairman with Secretary of State Dean Acheson as vice chairman. The Commission utilized 24 research committees called "task forces" composed of 300 nationally noted specialists. After two years of exhaustive study the Commission submitted to Congress a specific blueprint to eliminate duplication, overlapping, and waste while actually improving government service. This blueprint would make possible savings of S3 to $5 billions a year. The bipartisan Citizens Committee for the Hoover Report, a nonprofit organization, was created to rally public support for the Commission's recommendations. Headed by Dr. Robert L. Johnson, president of Temple University, it maintains headquarters at 1421 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia. Now, in a time of relative prosperity, the current appropriations, for major Federal construction projects total $l,300,000,000? To complete those already underway will cost more than 55,500,000,000. Projects authorized by Congress but not yet' initiated may cost 57,800,000,000. Within the next five years Federal plamta will probably be producing 15 or 20 percent of the nation's electric power. Nearly 5,000,000 acres of land are now watered by United States irrigation projects. The Army Engineers and the Bureau of Reclamation each drew plans for a project at Hell's Canyon, Idaho. Sach set of plans cost about $250,000 and differed in essential particulars of" construction and by over 175,000,000 in cost of erection. There iff a consistent underestimate of costs in Federal construction, the Commission disclosed. For instance, Congress was informed ttoat the Colorado- Big Thompson project would cost $44,000,000. It ,eventually set the Government back $131,800,000. The cost of the Hungry Horse Project in Montana grew from an estimated $6,300,000 to an actual $93,500,000. S u c h discrepancies 'hardly can be explained by increases in costs- of labor and material," the Commission wryly commented. It need hardly be pointed out to you, as a citizen, that the recommendations of the Hoover Report with reference to the Department of the Interior should be adopted. It means money in your pocket. You can't afford to let these and the other reforms proposed by the Hoover Commission go by the board through public indifference. The Citizens Committee for the Hoover Report was organized specifically to make the contents of this document an actuality rather than an ideal. The Committee believes that an informed public will demand action by the Congress to the end that lastinggood Government will secure the future of our nation. Write the President and your Congressman that you want these reforms that will bring economy and efficiency.to the federal government. Savings of from $3 to $5 billions a year are possible if the Hoover Commission's recommendations are fuHy adopted and vigorously applied. (This is another of a series of articles.
