The SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,

Washington, D. C.

MY DEAR MR. SPEAKER: In accordance with the provision of the act of Congress entitled "An act to authorize and provide for the disposition of useless papers in the executive departments," approved February 15, 1889, as amended by the act approved March 2, 1895, I have to report that there is in this department an accumulation of miscellaneous material in the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Bureau of Immigration, and United States Employment Service which will be of no further use in the transaction of official business.

A list of these files, similar to the one inclosed, has been presented to the Librarian of Congress pursuant to the terms of the Executive order of March 16, 1912, and a report received to the effect that the papers do not possess sufficient historical interest to warrant their preservation in the Library, copy of which is attached.

It is accordingly recommended that authority be granted for the disposition of these papers to the end that they may be sold as waste paper or otherwise disposed of in accordance with law.

A similar letter has been addressed to the Vice President.

Cordially yours,
