Washington, D.C. (July 17)—A resolution directing the president to cause a thorough investigation of the Pension Bureau, its methods and personnel, was introduced today by Representative Buckeles (Dem.) of Ohio.
The resolution asked a report to Congress by December 10, 1912, with recommendations as to changes necessary to promote efficiency in the bureau.
Conferees of the Senate and House today ineffectually sought agreement on the disputed agency provision of the pension appropriation bill. The House stands for consolidating all the eighteen agencies into one at Washington, while the Senate would empower the president to abolish outside agencies after March 4, next.
