The joint select committee of the Senate and House of Representatives, appointed on the part of the Senate and on the part of the House of Representatives, to which are referred the reports of the Archivist of the United States (in compliance with section 9, of the National Archives Act approved June 19, 1934), in respect to accumulation of records which are not needed or useful in the transaction of the current business of departments, bureaus, etc., and have no permanent value or historical interest, respectfully report to the Senate and House of Representatives, pursuant to an act entitled "An act to authorize and provide for the disposition of useless papers in the executive departments", approved February 16, 1889, as amended, as follows:

Your committee has taken action on the records described in the attached report of the Archivist of the United States, dated November 30, 1937, to the Seventy-fifth Congress, second session, with respect to records recommended to him for disposal by the Department of the Navy; and we find and report that said records are not needed in the transaction of the current business of such Department and have no permanent value or historical interest.

We recommend that the Department of the Navy, as required by law, destroy or otherwise effectively dispose of such records-if by sale, upon the best obtainable terms, after due publication of notice inviting proposals therefor and receive and pay the proceeds thereof into the Treasury of the United States and make report thereof to Congress. Respectfully submitted to the Senate and House of Representatives.
