WENTY-FIVE Supreme Court Justices with one voice reject the Lowell plans for a round couri house. Weeks ago this same plan was hailed with delight by s Court House Com- filesion specially sc!ected to examine designs. Meanwhile the cily has taken to its bosum the promise of a round court house as an ideal edition to its u'vic adornments. Now the judges find the circular plan am‘ns in every thinkable way. It costs two much, twice as much #0 it ought to; fails to provide proper light and ventilation, is incon- ‘venient for court house business and doesn’t permit of future exten- siew. In short the justices find not a redeeming feature in plans ‘which a supposedly competent commission accepted. Now Mr. Lowell ‘ee epmebody must furnish something different. When we realive that the final plan must stand the attacks of ‘the County Court House Commission, the Supreme Court Justices, > , the Art Commissio, and the Board of Estimate, and that any one |, of these august bodies can turn it down, it looks as if, without some | ‘port of intelligent preliminary discussion, the city might spend a goed deal of time and money in the next generation or #0 before it ‘even has a court house on paper. Would it be unreasonable to expect | ; the exercise of a little common sense?’ Why not let all the big-wigs and art-sharps get together and find out what kind of court house they can agree on? +++ -NO. 18,980 SMOKE EXTINGUISHER ‘Well, well!
