Sinopsis
Excerpt from Cooperation and Unification in Federal and State Statistical Work
The concentration of many of these statistical bureaus under the super vision of one Cabinet officer, is a long step toward the reform of these inconsistencies. No more important duty will fall to the Secretary of the new department than to see that duplication and contradiction, so far as relates to the statistics prepared by the bureaus under his jurisdiction, shall forthwith cease. He will accomplish it by the simple rule already indicated, that there shall be consultation and cooperation between these bureaus, and agreement on the statistics which can be shown to be most nearly right.
With such supervision and cooperation, there is' no danger that the establishment of a permanent Census Office will increase the volume of Government statistics, or add to the duplication, contradiction, and con fusion. On the contrary, while the scope of Federal statistics may be greatly extended, their actual bulk may perhaps be reduced, and certainly a definite order, symmetry, and consistency may be imparted to them.
It is permissible, perhaps, to go a step farther, and add that the logic of the situation requires that all the strictly statistical investigation of the Federal Government, except such as is drawn from departmental records, like that of the Surgeon General of the Army, should be concentrated in one depart ment, subject to the unifying supervision of one responsible statistical chief a Cabinet officer in charge of all the separate statistical bureaus. Then absolute unity, harmony, and consistency, both of method and result, can follow; and all can be carried out by methods purely scientific, like the work of the Smithsonian Institution. Then any department having need for statis tical data in connection with its own functions would call upon the statistical department to supply it, instead of compiling it itself, and would have at its disposal all 'the resources, agencies, and experience of that department, as a guarantee of prompt, thorough, and accurate service.

Excerpt from Cooperation and Unification in Federal and State Statistical Work
The committee has been in conference with the Director of the Census and has found him in entire harmony with the spirit and purpose of the above resolution. The terms and proposals of this report meet with his hearty sympathy, and the United States Census Office may be relied upon to Cooper ate with the several state bureaus of labor statistics in all lines of investigation where such cooperation is found to be feasible and desirable. It should be understood also that there is no disposition on the part of the Census Office to minimize the work of the state bureaus, to restrict or to control the nature or extent of the inquiries they are conducting, or to interfere in any way with their initiative or their functions. It is believed by the Director, and your committee concurs in the belief, that the results of Cooperation, such as is now suggested, will be to improve the quality of the work both of the state bureaus and of the Census Office, and to add materially to the dignity and strength of both.
