Abstract
Description
Memorandum, undated, relative to needed administrative changes in the Department of State and its Foreign Service in the interests of efficiency and economy; recognizes need for economy in all government expenditures, but recent 10 percent cut in appropriations for all departments has disastrous effect upon Foreign Service, which has in the past been maintained at minimum expenditure; recommends consolidation of embassies and consulates in foreign capitals into one establishment as an economic measure; recommends also reduction of foreign establishments of other departments, particularly the Dept. of Commerce; Commercial Attachés serve little useful purpose.
