LOUIS, MO. The following is a list of records belonging to the former Subtreasury still stored in the basement of the customhouse, St. Louis, Mo., which are no longer useful and in the opinion of the Secretary of the Treasury have no permanent value or historical interest. Cashbooks, ledgers, treasurer's transcripts, and auxiliary memorandums, all dated prior to July 8, 1921. All the old canceled pension checks and disbursing officers' checks have been destroyed by burning. (These checks were stored in the basement of the customhouse building at the time of the discontinuance of the Subtreasury in St. Louis. W. J. MCBURNEY, Acting Custodian. LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, Washington, September 30, 1929. SIR: In reply to your letter of September 24, transmitting schedules describing old papers, documents, correspondence, etc., in the files of the Treasury Department, which the department desires to destroy under the terms of the Executive order of March 16, 1912, the matter has had the attention of the chief of our division of manuscripts, who now reports that these lists do not seem to indicate any material that needs to be preserved on account of any historical interest. The lists are therefore returned herewith. Very respectfully, The UNDERSECRETARY OF THE TREASURY, HERBERT PUTNAM, Librarian. Washington, D. C. CONTROL THE POSSESSION, ETC., OF DANGEROUS WEAPONS IN THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA FEBRUARY 17, 1930.-Referred to the House Calendar and ordered to be printed Mr. MCLEOD, from the Committee on the District of Columbia, submitted the following REPORT [To accompany H. R. 9641] The Committee on the District of Columbia, to whom was referred the bill (H. R. 9641) to control the possession, sale, transfer, and use of pistols and other dangerous weapons in the District of Columbia, to provide penalties, prescribe rules of evidence, and for other purposes, having considered the same, report back to the House with the recommendation that the bill do pass. This bill takes the place of H. R. 2400, introduced by the chairman of the committee, Mr. Zihlman, on May 1, 1929, which was fully considered by the committee and laid aside for H. R. 9641. Your committee has given consideration to various bills introduced in past sessions of Congress to regulate the sale, use, and possession of firearms. There is urgent necessity for the passage of this measure, as at the present time there is a lack of control over the sale of pistols and other dangerous weapons. Any person can now secure the delivery of a revolver upon the payment of the price without any investigation having been made as to the purpose for which it is desired, the character of the purchaser, or the frame of mind in which the purchaser may be at the time of purchase. The use of revolvers in the commission of crime has grown to such an extent that it is no longer an unusual occurrence to have a crime committed by an armed person, and in order to suppress the further spread of this practice it is believed essential that in addition to the punishment which may be prescribed for the particular crime which has been committed that there should be an additional penalty if such crime is committed by an armed person. The Commissioners of the District and the major and superintendent of the police department assure your committee that there is a very real need for this legislation. In conformity with paragraph 2a of Rule XIII of the House of Representatives the changes in existing law are herein set forth as follows: The following sections of the Code of Law for the District of Columbia are repealed: "SEC. 855. CARRYING WEAPONS.-Any person who shall within the District of Columbia have concealed about his person any deadly or dangerous weapon, or |
