Government Report
Demands Expensive
Washington (U.R) -A .Hoover
commission task force said today
the country could save millions
of dollars and a vast amount of
wear and tear and time if Uncle
Sam would stop asking business
men and farmers so many ques
tions. As of . now'" the government
makes 4700 reporting demands
of industry. Cut out or simplify
just 25 of them, the task force
told Congress, and savings
would amount to $100,000,000 a
year for industry and govern
ment. . Mountains of information de
manded by the government nev
er is used for anything,' the task
force reported, and some of the
questions such as how many
chickens will you sell next
year? just can't be answered.
Nearly 1,000,000 reports are
sent to the government every
year reporting, the task force
said, that the reporter had noth
ing to report.
'Besides s a Vi n g everybody's
money, the report added, a dras
tic slash in 'the "wilderness of
reports, forms, and question
ings"" would be' a welcome 're
lief to the persons who have to
cope with them.

7 to 5 favorite to defeat Utah's
Rex Layne tonight in their 10
round heavyweight fight. "

Baker, the second ranking
heavyweight challenger behind
Archie Moore, was shooting for
a repeat of his victory over the
