Thechange that was proposed of the Speaker's Toom from the west corridor of the House to the east corridor bas not yet been effected, but 1t may be made by the time Congress meets. It was pro- Posed toremove the appropriations committee to ‘the rooms occupied by the Sergeant-at-arms and | the Speaker, the tworooms adjoining at the south- ern terminus of the western corridor, and to give ‘the Sergeant-at-Arms the room now held by the appropriations committee at the elevator on the eamern corrtsor, and to give the Speaker the smaller room on the opposite sid3 of the eastern corridor which 1s used ty the appropriations com- mittee for subcommittees and for conferences. ‘Thts arrangement pleased Mr. Carlisle, as by cut- Ung a doorway through the rear wall of the sud- committee room he would be enabled to pass D:- tween the House and his private room without Tunning the gauntlet of people awaiting him in the corridor. "As now provided in to and fro between the House and ils room he has to go through @ portion of a public corridor, and it is said that during the closi days of a session, partfcularly, he ts stopped at every Sep by persons having favors to ask or re- quests to urge, much to the delay of public Dusiness to say hothing of nal. annoyance. But while the Speaker liked the pro change {U seems that other interested parties ob} and Te was nct effected. It ty gull Roweves provonea make the change as originally plano he exception that the door 1s not to becut through the rear wall of the subcommittee room. Fo protect the Speaker trom such intrusion as may interfere with his public duties 1t has been sug- gested that the southern end of the eastern cor. Tidor be made a portion of the House lobby. and ‘that the general public be excluded from it under the same restrictlous that ‘now apply co the loDby 4m tha rear of the House. Ih support of this sug- tion it 18 said that the elevator now approac! completion in the western corridor will answer for public Uses, and the old elevator in the eastern corridor could’ then be reserved for mem. ders, officials and employes of the House, Such aa arrangement would pl ce the nt-at-arms’ Office within the reserved limits, however, and that might not be found to work very well.
