WAR DEPARTMENT,

OFFICE OF THE INSPECTOR-GENERAL,

THE ADJUTANT-GENERAL.

Washington, December 18, 1907.

SIR: I have the honor to submit herewith, for the consideration of the Chief of Staff and Secretary of War, "A Guide for use of Officers of the Inspector-General's Department," which is a compilation of existing laws, regulations, orders, and decisions relating to the duties of said officers, prepared under my direction, and to request that authority be granted for the printing and binding of 150 copies thereof.

Such a guide is urgently necessary for ready reference in order to secure thoroughness and uniformity in the inspection service, in view of the fact that under the detail system officers now come into the department and are assigned to inspection duty without opportunities for instruction in a new field of duty. Very respectfully,

E. A. GARLINGTON,

Inspector-General.

JANUARY 2, 1908.

Memo.

Respectfully submitted to the Acting Secretary of War, recommending that this guide be printed as desired by the InspectorGeneral.

J. F. BELL,
Chief of Staff.

WAR DEPARTMENT, January 3, 1908.

Approved, as recommended by the Chief of Staff.

ROBERT SHAW OLIVER,

Assistant Secretary of War.
