t,hlt it, c'n be ensil.v u1derstood. This system of decimal clfssific'at,i(on has 1bee1 frllled to neet. ,these requirements of record kee)in1.

T he simiple alphabetical arrningement of the index, with class number referring to the exactl,place in the tables for its given subject, makes assignment of the file number easy.

The system'icall be applied with e'ise(' to tle most, varied subjeictj." When a new toplic arises itis always closwely related to somne olther existing siubject'', 'nd(l inll colimectiing it with the most closely relatedi exislting subject, by ad(tiiig a, de(climal point, aIllple provision is made for the mwvcoitcr. The system is capable of unlimited expansion and can never break down for lack of room for growth, and such expansion can be ma(de without confusion or waste of labor, the call numhers being c1111alig'o.(nle.

and effort required to operate the files, with a certainty of always finding a piece of correspondence it there is matter on file concerning it.

HANDLING PAPERS.

The papers are filed flat in vertical drawers, separated by suitable guide cards and folders. In eachli foldecr the last paper receive(l will be filed in front of all othiers oni same subl)ject. Tlie (dec,ilili1 number to be placed on righlt mniargin I inch fromn top of the plaper in a vertical position, thus:

Wrhen a paper cmint,a inis more than one subjet., notes or cross references shoulid be nilade giving the paper one subject number and tilie note or cross reference olther number or numbers.

desired. Papers relating to more thlian one sublhead of a subject are filed

under a general head. When a file becomes too large for convenient handling it should

be subdivided, alphabetically or otherwise, and a list of papers or finding sheet provided and placed in front of the file as a ready brief of the contents of the file.

SKELETON FILE.

The skeleton file will be used for papers passing through an office and should conltain only so mu(c of the contents of the original paper as may be necessary for record for that office, andl should 1)be withdrawn and d,estroy(ed if tHie original paper is returned to thle file.

FILING EQUIPMENT.

A cabinet containing drawers for vertical filing sufficient to accommniodate papers for two years.

Guide cards, heavy pasteboard, tables of five divisions. Folders, manila, with five divisions, one-half inch shorter in height

tlhan the guide cards. Il(lCex cards, 3 by 5 light \vweight with file case to hold same. Aceo ()r o)ther fasteii,ers amid Im)nli'es.

EXPLANATORY NOTES.

Thle proposed classification of the correspoindence of thile War De-p,rtment is so devised that the arrangement of the file itself serves IlIe ipurpose of the subject index. Conversely, thile subject matter of t1he paper deltermines its file number and therefore its filing place.

The nine general classes of the file are: ('lass 0. General. Class I. Finance and accounting. ('Chlass 2. Personnel. ('las s 3. Admi i istration. C'lass 4. Supp)lies and equipment. Class 5. Transportation. ('lass 6. Buildings and grounds. ('lass 7. Medicine, hygiene, and sanitaltion. (Class S. Rivers and harbors. Class 9. -IEi(-I of these classes is divided, according to tle decimial system,

witil each distinct subject has its own file number. This file nunliber consists of at least thlree figures, the decimal p)oint always following tde third figure when more digits are required.

This syste l)lpresulpposes that all subject matter to be handled can le grolped in 10 classes or less, and that each of these classes can be su)livi6ded into 10 classes or less, and so on down to the ultimate nmilber o()funit subjects required to carry the sub)ject to the greatest detnil d

U

Class 200, PERSONNEL.

This class comprises all subjects of a personal nature pertaining to officers, enlisted men, and civilian emnployees of the War Department, including their pay and moiiey allowances, discipline, and miscellaneous personal matters.

Class 300, ADMINISTRATION.

This class comprises all mutters of aulninistration, suchll ais lusilless miethods and proce(dure, orga(.ization of the Annrmy, mnilitary control, recruitment, elducation, emiplo*N11elit a-nd movement of troops, a11(1 war aliid peace, except (hlsciplille.

Class 400, SUPPLIES AND EQUIPMENT.

This c(lass comprises all sutbjects pertaining to supplies, arnmamient, and equipment, suchl as building material and hardware, clothing, equipage, toilet articles, subsistence stores, medical and veterinary supplies and equipment, supplies and equipment for transportation by land, ordnance and equipments, rentals and services, and miscellaneouls suppl)lies.

Class 500, TRANSPORTATION.

This class comprises all subjects pertaining to transportation by land and water for the Army, War Department, and other branches of the Government, under existing laws and regulations, such as the transportation of persons, supplies, property, transportation by land, transportation by Nwateri, transportation rates, tariffs, accounts, contracts, transports and Army transport service, harbor boats, mine planters, cable steainers and otlier craft, aviation and aeronautics, :U'1iother iniscellaneolus inatters.

Class 600, BItiLDINGS AND GROUNDS.

Thlis class comlprises everythi ng pertaining to the acquisitioln and disposition of land for reservationls and buildings thereon, installation and conlistruction work, su(hl as gro()unds, harbors, wharfs, draining, barracks and quarters, post buildhings, minor construction, fortifications, plants and systems, andi reservations, except work done by tlie Engineer Department in the improvement of rivers and harbors.

Class 700, MEDICINE, HYGIENE, AND SANITATION.

'lTis class comprises all subjects pertaining to health, hygiene, and sanitation.

8

Class 800, RIVERS AND HARBORS.

This class comprises all subjects relating to the improvement supervision, inspection, and control of rivers and harbors and other navigable waters.

Class 900, .....

Wherever the figure 0 or subdivisions thereo)f are found, it will be tinted that thie subject matter is general, pertaining to all tile subjects in tlhat group that are more or less related. Whenever the figure 9 is found, it denotes miscellaneous matters coming within the general class of the group, but not included by any of the subclasses of the same group.

A very convenient application of the principle that the figure 0 shall represent matters which are general to the whole group)has l)beeni w,4rked out whenever possibie to d(o so.

Fo)r instance, all of the subdivisions between 210 and 211 relate to either all commissioned officers, or when affixed after a dash to any number under 211, the subject matter of the former will relate to tlhe subject matter of the latter. Example 210.1 is appointment of commissioned officers generally; but when it is desired to indicate the ap)pointment to a particular grade the number following the decimal point will be affixed to the number indicating the grade of thle offlicer, ais 211.13-1, "brigadier general, appointment of." Subject matters which are thus general to a group of classes or subjects have been in all cases given numbers composed of two digits followed by an 0 pre(diting the (Jecimal point.' Such subject natters hax e been in all cases design.iatedl as processes or combinations b)y which is meant the thiing which is (l()one to or with the concrete subjects following in tlhe same group. Therefore, to in(licate a thing which is done to or with any concrete subject in thie classification there should be affixed to the nuiiiiiber indicating the concrete subject the appropriate process or (1ombination number as shown in the same group at the beginiling of the group under numbers containing the figure 0.

This arrangement has been found particularly approp)riate in the h4llowinig groups: 110, 210, 220, 230, 400, 500, 6(100, 800.

Whelle possible to (to so advantage lhas been takei of the Decimal C(lissificatioll perfected by Ilthe State I)epartl,meit, the Pel,isylvallia lailroad Co., and the Library Bureau.
