serious difference on the character OF the

ION, Omaha, st. Paul, Milwaukee and Sau
Francisco. He said:
Il estimate the averages increase which
will result from the passage of the eight

ernment spends about $l95, eco 00e a year on
public buildings. That will mike an ad-
ditional expenditure of s., 050, Go a year
necessary TO carry out the same WORK.
That is she difference which the new law
will make in my office alone.
The law does not apply to those who
already hold contracts with the govern

made to apply TO them Indirectly in a good
