Washington, April 3. — The whole sale cleanup of the nureau of engrav ing and printing, which came as such a dramatic surprise to official Wash ington, is to be followed by an even bigger shake-up in the personnel of the treasury department. It was learned by Universal Service Sunday night that nearly 50 impor tant-changes in important positions in the treasury department will be made before the governmental house clean ing is over. x no x'lmn&es iu ue inuue di e nui iui political reasons but the result of what Is termed "glaring inefficiency” in the administration of certain bu reaus of the treasury. Batson to Be Replaced. It Is understood that B. II. Batson, deputy commissioner of internal rev enue, in charge of income tax collec tions, will be among the first of the treasury officials who will be re placed. Mr. Batson is a republican and during his administration has had more than 1,600 employes of the in ternal revenue under his charge. Most o( these have been engaged in audit ing income tax returns. The startling statement was made Sunday night by those in a position to know, that de spite the huge force employed at this work, the treasury department is still auditing income tax returns for the year, 1918. In other words, the work of this paricular bureau Is .behind nearly four years. Instance of Inefficiency. As an instance of what this in efficiency amounts to, the case is cited of a man who for two years has been trying to pay the govern ment an income tax of $90,000. He has made numerous attempts to get the treasury to accept a certified check for the amount but has been unable to do so because he is told that the auditors have not yet reached his account which is more than two years old and therefore cannot give him a receipt. Many instances of a similar nature have, occurred, it is said, all of which mean loss to the government. Notwithstanding these conditions, customs receipts are constantly on the increase, greatly complicating the situation. Receipts for the month of March increased $10,000,980 over those of March. 1921. Word for General Cleanup. ©ecause of these conditions the word has come down from adminis tration leaders for a general clean up and re-organization of some of the bureaus of the treasury depart ment along business lines. To re lies the congestion it is understood that the new changes will affect a decentralization of the income tax forces. .TRTnpe T. WiVmf-lh ilicm'gc/vl H Iran tor of the bureau of engraving and printing, Sunday night refused to make any comment upon charges against his administration. The disposed official stated he had seen the printed charges of ineffi ciency, graft and general mal-ad minist-ratlon, which are held respon sible for President Harding’s sweep ing order dismissing Wilmeth and 31 other high officials of the bureau. When told of the nature of these charges Mr. Wilmeth stated he was "not going to make any statement at this time.” He added that he ho^ed there would he a complete investigation of his ad ministration of the directorship and expressed the intention af remaining In Washington for some time with the hope that he would he called to testi fy In defense of himself and the other tukmlssed officials. To Probe Every Phase. The secret service of the treasury department, which administers the bureau, together with a special force of Investigators of the department of justice under Chief William J. Burns, Monday will begin one of the most exhaustive probes in the history of the government service. Every phase of bureau activity since the entrance of the United States into the world war is to be thoroughly investigated for evidence of criminality. The most important phase of this investigation, and the one which will he taken up first by the government agents will be to place the responsl government securities, said to have made their appearance In many sec tions of the country. Evidence alleged to show instances of graft on the part of some of the dismissed officials also are to he rig orously followed up.
