Scrap-book habit at White House viewed as relic of spoils era
A historical note recalls the White House scrap-book system built to collect editorial and news clippings about the administration. It trained a clerk at $2,000 yearly and costly books, with reform suggested to create a focused file of major newspapers and summaries. Cleveland in 1884 merged two roles into one, but the practice persists as a vestige of the spoils system.
