Its me and its faults have been freely paraded in the house. € have been made that it is a chamnel through which hundreds of thousands of dollurs of the public money have been - reckless wasted, and that it is the qua tering pl for a host of the relatives and friends of congressmen, who render little or no service for the compensation they receive. The stat ment has been made that there are ve fewof the older members of cong of sither party who have not from one to a hall dozen relatives or immediate pe sonal friends in office under the director of the survey, Major Powell, and it is asserted that it is by reason of this fact that the director has ¥ able to so0 easily securo o appropriations annu- ally forhis bureau. On the other hand it is contended that there hus been an ample retun in what the buresu has accomplished for every dollar ex- pended, that Major Powell has demon- strated his superior qualifications for the position he holds, and that it would be ss mistake to deny tho survey what itasks for to continue the work it is engagea in.
