Book excerpt: Excerpt from The National Administration of the United States of America Such a study should be of service not only for itself, but also as a model, to some extent at least, for State and local administration. For, with its defects, the national administration presents an organized system, where responsibility can be fixed and a fair degree of efficiency secured; and contrasts sharply with the disorganized and heterogeneous mass of administrative officials in our states, cities and other local districts. And it may be hoped that an orderly presentation of the national system may have some influence in securing a degree of organization where there is now little but chaos. In the main the book has been written from the primary official records: the Constitution of the United States, the statutes of Congress, administrative reports and judicial decisions. But I have not hesitated to make use also of statements from unofficial sources written by those who have had opportunity for more thorough observation and investigation in particular branches of the administrative service than is possible for any one person covering so wide a field. And in many matters I have been able to rely on personal acquaintance with the administration in action. References at the beginning of each chapter furnish a select bibliography, covering the most valuable and accessible printed material bearing directly on the subjects here considered. These, however, do not include references to all of the original statutes or to the periodical reports of the various departments and bureaus. Additional information may be discovered scattered through the treatises on American history, government and law, and in the volumes of judicial reports of the United States courts. Finally, for a complete study of the national administration, there is a vast accumulation of unpublished records in the archives of the various government offices.
