U. 5. T0 ACQUIRE ADDTIOWAL T B it Condemnatif-n Seen for Four! Squares in Triangle De- velopment. For the purpose of ecarrying {oruard the Government's great building pro- ) gram in the National Capital, the Public Buildings Commission today au- thorized the acquisition of four iquarn of property lying between Twelfth and Thirteenth streets, Pennsylvania ave- | nue and B streets. This is the site lying between th‘ proposed Great Circle and Grand Plaza in the Federal triangle development. and will be the location of buildings for the Interstate Commerce Commission and the ndependent offices. Action today was understood to fore- cast condemnation proceedings in the | courts for acquisition of the property. | as the Treasury has been able to buy very little land ‘at prices which it was willing to pay. Condemnation will follow several other condemnation proceedings al- ready in the courts, or the hands of the Department of Justice, but certain factors point to greater speed in the handling of the case authorized today. In carlier plans for the development of the triangle the Archives Building. which now is projected for a site be- tween Pennsylvania avenue and B ftreet. Ninth ‘and Tenth streets, was alternately placed on the B street front and then on the Pennsylvania avenue front of the area authorized today to be acquired. The Department of Jus- tice at that time was asked to prepare condemnation proceedings for the prop- erty for Archives, and it is understood | some work has alreadv been accom- | plished which will be of value in the condemnation of the same property for | enother building than that for which it was originally intended. Other sites which the Treasury and Department ot Justice are working on for acquisition for building incluce the new Archives site, a site for the ex- tensible building for the Department of | Agriculture, bounded by Thirteenth and Fourteenth, B and C streets southwest. and a site for the Supreme Court of the United States north of the Congres- | sional Library. \ The numbers of the squares ordered | acquired today by the Public Buildings Commission are 292, 293. 294 and 295. ‘When condcmnation procedings now decided upon are completed. the Gov- ernment will own the Pennsylvania ave- nue front of the trianele from Seventh to Fifteenth streets. The most recent purchase of ground by the Government ‘was on the Avenue front, the President | ‘Theater, corner of Eleventh street and Pennsylvania avenue. DIFFERENCES ON NAVAL PROPOSALS REPORTED Britain and France Disagree on Advisability of Publishing Text. By the Associated Press. GENEVA, September 21.—A difference of opinion among the French and Brit- ish as to the-advisability of publishing the text of the Anglo-French naval pro- posals was indicated at Geneva today. The French delegation here informed the Associated Press that, in view of the poublicity which the proposals are get- ting in the United States, France has been urging the British to agree to pub. limation of the text. The ¥ itish spokesman stated that the British cabinet had decided not to Publish the text of the proposal until replies have been received from the United States.

ADHERENCE ATHAGUE DELAYED ECommlttee Dec:des Not to| | Attempt Clarification of World Court Rules. By the GENEVA, September 21.—Negotia- tions for adherence by the United States [to the World Court of International | Justice at The Hague probably will be further retarded as a result of a de- cision yesterday by the legal committee of the Assembly of the League of Na- tions. The committee decided not to attempt clarification of court rules con- | cerning advisory opinions. Switzerland has been insisting upon | this clarification. but opposition to that | | move has come from the great powers. | | The committee merely expressed a de- ire that the Council of the League tudy the question “when circumstances ermit.” Among conditions for American ad- herence to the court was a provision | that the tribunal should entertain no | | requests for advisory ,opinions on sub jects in which the United States had | or claimed- an interest. unless the American Government consented to the | formulation of such an opinion. The doubt in the rules now is as tc whether the Council can ask for an advisory opinion from the court by mere majority vote or whether unanim- | ity of the Council is required. If a majority sufficed there would be no assurance that the United States’ con- dition could be fulfilled. Under unan mous vote there would be opportunity to_veto the reauest for an opinio Members of the court thomselves are in doubt on the subject. Some of them told representatives of the United States after their special conference in Geneva in 1926 that they did not know what size Council vote was requlrsd. | Will Recognize Zogu | BUCHAREST, Rumania, September | (#).—The Rumanian government Associated Press. 21 | has instructed its minister at Tirana, Albania. to intimate to King Zogu, that | Rumania has decided to recogniz: Eog}n accession to the throne nf Al- ania.
