Harding Is "not very happy in getting

action." llrigndlcr General Sawyet. the
executive's personnLl'hyslclan, declared
todnv before n Senate committee con
cl,l,.rl,n. Mi.nntnr Knnvoii's bill to estab
lish 11 government department of public
welfare.
"In conversation with the President
this morning," said the general, "he
seemed to think that the esmitial thing
was to draft this legislation nnd get It
up. It Is -not our concern to contem
plate nnvthlng but this department and
bring nhoiit legislation which would
make It existent."
The general urged several amend
ments to the bill as drawn. All bureaus
created to assist disabled war veterans
should go to the welfare department,
he said, as well as the pension and war
risk bureaus.
"We shall be nITecled by the ques
tion of curing for the soldiers during the
next twv generations," he said. "Ckll
War experience shows that. This de
partment of public welfare can collect
Into one place all the fag-ends of or
ganizations which arc now floating
around in the government."
General Sawjer, who was detailed by
the President recently to make a study
of the problem of consolidating the
muny government agencies dealing with
welfare work, declared that the public
health service should lie taken out of.
the treasury.
"It should be lit the department Wfl
contemplate," he said, "with an as
sistnnt secretary of the welfare depig
ment becoming a general in charge of
ttic public health army, assigning its
personnel to nil the government services

Crane papers are not only dUrag they are all
new rag which is several degrees finer than
just "all'rag." But all'rag is a better paper than
rag and wood-pulp mixed. Such papers are called
"rag'content" papers meaning that the mixture
contains rags. How much rag is used depends on
the grade of paper being made. But it is obvious
that the greater the percentage of rag, the better
the paper, on up ta all-rag paper, and then on
