The Commissioners are confident that they did not violate the law in employing eight outside architects to assist the municipal architect in rush ing through plans for the school building program. It was learned at the District build ing today that in 1909 former Con troller of the Treasury Tracewell ruled that the Commissioners wer: authorized by law to employ private architects to aid the municipal force in bufiding construction work. Asked Controller to Rule. Auditor Danfel J. Donovan pointed out that in that year Congress made appropriations for eleven city con- struction projects. The auditor's office was not sure at that time whether pri- vate firms could be called upon to draw some of the plans, and the con- troller was asked to rule upon the question. The auditor called attention to the fact that the appropriation act for the year 1910, establishing the office of municipal architect, provided that plans and specifi- cations for city work should be prepared under his supervision. The Commission- ers point out that when private archi- tects are employed their work is super- vised by the city architect. Commissioners® Purpone. The real purpose of the Commissioners in letting contracts to outside firms to assist in planning the new school build- ings was to make it possible to begin construction on all of the buildings at one time and complete as many of them as possible for the opening of school in Septembor, 1922, District ‘officials said today that with the small number of employes allowed the municipal architect under the limi- tation placed on the employment of per dlem workers the school building pro- gram_would be delayed indefinitely it his office hud to draw all of the plans.
