FEDERAL BUILDING. | Abe Martin Savs: |GENATE PUTSBONUS PROGRAM IS URGED Representative Langley Fa- vors Government-Owned i¥ Offices Over Country. Determination to put through a bullding program extending over a period of years, under which govern- ment-owned bulldings will be erected in the Natfonal Capital to house all the activities of the federal govern- Ident, is expressed by Representative John W. Langley of Kentucky, chalr- man of the House committes on pub- lic buildings and grounds and rank- ing member of the public bulldings commission. Co-ordinated with the public bulld. Ing program for Washington would be an omnibus federal building to cover all the needs of the federal government in local communities throughout the country. Represent- ative Langley predicts that such a public building program will be one | of the most important jobs which the next session of Congress will tackle. Authority on Legislation. Representative Langley Is a recog- nized authority on the subject of public bullding legislation. He has been a member of the committee on public buildings and grounds for many years, and has been chairman of the committee since the repub- licans regained'control of the House. He entertains very liberal views with regard to the proper housing of gov- ernment activities, not only in"Wash- ington, but throughout the country. “The views embodied in Senator Smoot's recont report were unani- mously concurred in by the members of the publio bulldings commission. but what the senator's report sald covers only one phase of the situa-| tion,”. Representative Langley sald. “T have been an advocate of the pol- fcy which is now favored by the com- mission to hasten as rapldly as pos- &ible the constructicn by the govern- ment of buildings on government- owned property for the housing of government activities In the District of Columbia, and 1 hope to see the time come in the nat distant future when the government will cease en- tively the rental of quarters for this i purpose. Among the most urgent is an archives building, in my judg- ment, although the need for others is very preesing. including ‘Department, Department of Justice, . Department of Agriculture, Depart- ment of Labor and, In fact, practically @il branches of the service. We have the land already, and we will simply bave to ralse the money. Would Care for Smaller Places- “I am one of those who belleve that government emploves should be just 29 well provided for in the smailer places in the matter of room and canitation and other facilities which contribute to their comfort and - the expedition of public business as in the large cities and outside of the District of Columbia as well as in- side of i Money is more needed for these purposes than for some others for which millions are being expend- ed. Now and then we hear a certain class of statesmen refer in a face- tious vein to the question of construc- & public buildings at ‘Pedunk’ and ‘Squash Center, and so forth, and e capital of the United States and the various large cities. Th in seem to think that a vote for an : propriation of millions for these monumental buildings is an act of patriotism. but when we talk about anpropriating a few thousand to pro- vide suitable quarters for govern- ment workers in the smaller places we are looked upon as the ‘pork barrel’ | advocates. There are hundreds of | cases throughout the country where | the government business is being transacted under the most disagree- ble and hampered conditions,.and, of course, the efficiency of the workers is mecessarily greatly impaired as a result. “I can see no reasom why a govern- ment emplove in Washington should have seventy-five square feet of space in which to work, while some | of its workers in other sections of | the country are lucky to have a square yard. It has now been con- siderably more than nine years since e had an nibus public buildinss| SPECIAL NOTICES. the State | t they want millions expended in !

Mr. Langley said he did not think it possible to secure the.enactment of {Such a bill at this session, but that | be believes it should not and will not be delayed beyond the third session of this Congress. He called attention to what he regards as an indirect in- | fringement upon the prerogatives of his committee and of Congress by the recent action of the Post Office | Department in taking steps looking toward a contract with private par- ties to construct buildings in cer- | tain large cities with an agreed rent- al price which in the course of {twenty years will fully reimburse the cost of the structures, which would still remain the property of those who constructed them He cites as a case in point, the proposition of the Post Office Depart- ment to enter into a contract with private parties for the construction of a new post office annex building over the tracks of the Pennsylvania railroad in New York city. He says that the bids which have been sub- mitted are all in the neighborhood of $20.000.000, and that under the con- tract the government would pay in round numbers a million dollars an- nually for the rental of the Luildings. It is contended. he says, that such a contract is authorized by th office appropriation bill of April, 1920, but he denies that Congress contem- plated such stupendous projects as these by the enactment of that pro- viso TAXI RATES REDUCED. Yellow Cab Company Seeks More “Pick-Up” Business. Public announcement was made today of a substantial reduction in rates for vellow cab taxi service in {this city. The new charges provide ifor an initial payment of cents, when a cab is halled on the street, and 35 cents when sent on order. The subsequent payments will be 25 cents a mile. It is claimed that the new rates are as low as the average rates of any taxi service in the country. and | consists of three or more passengers. The low initial charge of 25 cents. it is explained, is for the purpose of stimulating pick-up business on the streets, and Is possible by reason of the company paying mo commissfons or royalties to railroad terminals or other concessions.

The soldiers' bonus bill Was on_the Senate calendar today, but withaut any definite time fixed for its. consideration. Chairman McCumber of the finance committee reported the measure last night by unanimous consent after a first effort to present it under a consent agresment had falled. Senater McCumber desires to have the Senate consider the bill in the near fu- ture, but some leaders on the republican side’ oppose his plans, belleving it un wise to displace the tariff bill for measure which is certain to lead to & long and, perhaps, bitter fight. Fate of Bill a Problem. That there are sufficlent votes in the Senate to pass a bonus bill is conceded by opponents, but’ whether the measure can be put through in its present form is problematical. The democrate plan to offer an amendment embodying a cash feature, while Senator Bursum, re- publican, New Mexico, iow has a bill in providing for a cash bonus. Many other amendments also will be offered and in addition opponents of bonus legislation !in any form are prepared to wage a de- termined fight. Outlined to President. Supporters of the amended House bill apparently are glving little considera- tion now as to how President Harding views the measure as it came from the finance committee. The legitlation has been outlined to him in detail, but so far as has been made known he has not given an_opinion to the finance com- mittee. Some of those who have called on him recently, however, have indicated- that he has not altered his opinion that any bonus legislation passed should carry a means of finkncing it. HONARD DPLONAS T0 25 CRADUATE Dr. Slosson Makes Address; Honorary Degrees Awarded Three. Degrees were conferred on 245 graduates of Howard University by Dr. J. Stanley Durkee, president, at the fifty-third commencement, which started on the university campus today at 11 o'clock. The address was deltvered by Dr. E. E.

Artillery Officers at Camps Knox and Bragg Go to Fort Sill. _To reduce the cost of admi tion and to eliminate duplication of courses of instruction in field ar- tillery, the War Department has or- dered the concentration at Fort Sill Okla..- of the artillery officers’ basis school at Camp Knox, Ky., and the artillery fleld officers’ school at Camp Bragg. N. C. _Similar changes in the location of air service schools have been or- dered. The primary flying _school goes from Carlstrom Field, Fla., to Brooks Field, San_Antonio. Tex., and the observation school from Fort Sill to Kelly Field, near San Antonio, where instruction of an advance na- ture in observation, pursuit, attack and bombardment already has been concentrated. The effect is to bring all heavler-than-air schools into one locality. The lighter-than-air schools will be concentrated at Scott Field. Belleville, Inn., including the balloon school from Ross Field, Los Angeles, and the airship school from Langley Fleld, Va.
