Washington, — Counterfeiting has 'béen tesumed to such “an unusual de- gree in the last few months,” that the secret service, handicapped by lack‘of ‘motey, is finding it difficult to’combat it, Chlef W. H. Moran reported to ¢on- gress, in asking $125,000 in addition to $275,000 recently granted, for the operations of his bureau during the next year. ¢ “It was predicted that when the war in Europe ended,” wrote the chief, “counterfeiters would resume opera- tions on a more or less extensive scale and the great volume of curren- ¢y, bonds, war savings stamps, and other obligations and securities issued during the war would attract those criminally inclined. This prediction 18 borne out by the fact that since February 1, 1919, twelye new counter- feit note issues have appeared in cir- culation.” S et Chief Moran said the “very exist- ence of the secret service is threat- ened by insuficient appropriation and salary limitations.” The average sal- ary of the agents, he said, was $5.40 a day.
