PLANS ARE BEGN FOR AL ADDTON Municipal Architect Hopes to Have Drawings Complete When Funds Are Ready. Municipal Architect Albert L. Har ris and his corps of assistants have started work on plans for the pro- posed addition to the rict jail which will “relleve the ~congestion there. The bill authorizing the additional facilities is now law, but, before actual steps can be taken to construct the addition, Congress must grant a de. ficiency appropriation of $800,000 to finance the project. A deficiency ap propriation bill for this sum is now before the House appropriations com- mittee, and Distr officials are hope- ful that it will be passed shortly. Sketches Already Drawn. Meantime Mr. Harris expects to de- velop his plans so that there will be practically no delay in starting work on the jail addition when the appropri ation is forthcoming. Sketches al ready have been drawn to conform to the ideas of the officials who gave considerable study to the question as to the type of additional facilities to provide. The plan will involve the remodel- ing of the interior of the present jail building, and the addition to the east wing of a women’s dormitory of 1wo stories. spital ward with 20 beds will be placed on the second floor of the dormitory.

The woman prisoners will be taken out of the present jail building and placed in the new dormintory as soon as it is completed, permitting addi- tional accommodations for male pris- oners. With the rearrangement of the interior of the present building, the addition to the roar of the east wing and the dormitory for women, Mr. Harris estimates that there will be accommodations for at least 200 more prisoners. Every effort will be made by Mr. Harris and other District officials to speed the work on the increased fa- cilities just as soon as the appropria- tion is provided.

The House, Mr. Mabry said, has taken the attitude that the Senate must accept the administration bill, whi has already passed the lower body, and will not go into joint con- ference with the Senate unless’ the Senate agrees to pass the administra- tion bill without change as it has ed the House.
