In addition to the present author- ity to call an inquest an amend- ment is asked for by the addition of the following words: “or has been found dead either in a room or in the open or has met an ac- cidental death.” The advisability of this amendment was submitted to the Attorney General and he decises that there is no necessity for the proposed amendment, which would be mandatory even ih cases where there was obviously no. rea- son to believe that the deceased had met his, or her, death by vio- lence or that any criminality was involved. It is also suggested that the statute is already broad enough 'to cover any existing needs, while the proposed change would un- doubtedly throw upon the Federal government an obligation of bury- ing the bodies of deceased persons whoge deaths were not due to any susplclon of criminality.
