Sec. 597. Rules and regulations; cooperation with other

        other laws
        
    The Secretary may make such rules, regulations, and orders, and 
require such reports, as may be necessary to carry out the provisions of 
this chapter, and may cooperate with any department or agency of the 
Government, any State, Territory, District, or possession, or 
department, agency, or political subdivision thereof, or any person, 
whether operating in one or more jurisdictions; and shall have the power 
to appoint, remove, and fix the compensation of such officers and 
employees not in conflict with existing law, and make such expenditures 
for rent outside the District of Columbia, printing, binding, telegrams, 
telephones, law books, books of reference, publications, furniture, 
stationery, office equipment, travel, and other supplies and expenses 
including reporting services, as shall be necessary to the 
administration of this chapter in the District of Columbia and 
elsewhere, and as may be appropriated for by Congress. This chapter 
shall not abrogate nor nullify any other statute, whether State or 
Federal, dealing with the same subjects as this chapter; but it is 
intended that all such statutes shall remain in full force and effect 
except insofar as they are inconsistent herewith or repugnant hereto.
