BUILDING FUND ACT PASSAGE FORESEEN Bill to Add $115,000,000 to| Public Program Approved By Senate Co:nmittee. Early enactment of the Keyes-Elliott blll, adding $115,000,000 to the public building program in Washington and a’ similar amount for Federal structures in the States, is foreseen as a result of the approval given to the measure yes- terday by the Senate public buildings and grounds committee. The bill passed the House several weeks ago and Sen- ator Keyes will ask the Senate to act on it as soon as practicable. ‘The Senate committee made a few minor amendments, but did not alter the essential features of the House bill. Senator Keyes sald the changes were made to exclude from the area to be acquired south of the Mall certain par- cels, which, it was felt, the Government would not need for many years. ‘The original public building program in the National Capital, now under way, called for purchase of the entire tri- angle between Pennsylvania avenue and B street from the Capitol to the ‘I'reas- ury. The pending measure authorizes extension of the plan by taking in an- other large area south of the Mall. Un- der the pending bill the Government could acquire sites within the area bounded by Pennsylvania and New York avenues on the north, Virginia and Maryland avenues projected to the Tidal Basin on the south and Delaware avenue southwest on the east. In ad- dition to this area, it authorizes pur- chase of land for the extension of Treasury Annex No. 1, on Madison place, northward to H street, The additional sums authorized by this bill will bring the total to be e: pended in Washington up o $190,000,- 000. The new authorization for post offices and other structures outside of Washington will bring the total amount | Loo\:’eooapent in the States up to $363,- | 000,000. Two Bombs Cause Damage.

By the Associated Press. Developments of the last few weeks are believed by Julius H. Barnes, chalr- man of the natlonal business survey conference, to warrant -confidence that efforts to check business recession as a result of the Fall stock market crash before it mounts inte general unem- ployment and distress can bs successful. Addressing a national radio audience last night, he said the confidence ex- pressed after the market deflation by President Hoover and business leaders in the prudent judgment and common sense of the American people had been justified. The American individ- ual recognized, he said, the necessity for the continuance of orderly pro- cesses of living If stability in the busi- ress world was to be maintained. * One of the reassuring factors in the minds of the President and the busi- ness world two months ago, Barnes continued, was the evidence that credits would be released so that money at reasonable rates would available for construction activities. He said that how accurate this judgment was had been shown not alone by the fall in interest rates, but by the fact that two weeks ago the total placements of new bond issues in New York were the largest for any week in history. Barnes also cited as a factor helpiy to sustain business the realization tha' buying power is reduced in any move | ment toward wage cuts, with the res.! | that “there has been an almost uni versal effort to sustain wage levels.” New Trial in Jew-Arab Clash, a crowd of 2,000 Jews waited outside, ‘watched by mounted police, the high court of appeal today canceled the sen- tence against Joseph Misrahi Orphali, the only Jew condemned to death in connection with the recent disorder: in Palestine, He was accused of shooting two Arabs in the fla outbreak, when troops already h rived.
