Some of the great bureaus of his department, he said in his annual re- port today, have overtaken the peak of their administrative load, while others have large tasks aheed for completion. Empsasis, therefore, he reasoned, should be transferred from those whose duties are on the de- crease to those showing “constantly increasing fields of activity.” The pension bureau and the gen- eral land office were cited as two bu- reaus the duties of which are on the decrease. The geological survey, the bureau of reclamation, the national park service and the office of educa- | tion were listed by the former unl- versity president as the branches of | his department called upon to carry out a huge expansion program/ planned in the reorganization of the | bed 100 years, bled presented in the follow! ragraph: “One activity, that of the Indian | service, has before it a definite and | unique goal—that of working itself out of a job.
