VERY FEW PUBLIC BUILDINGS
Likely to be Authorized by the Present
Congress-A New Printing once.

Congress-A New Printing once.
WASHINGTON, D. G., February IL
Congressmen in whose districts build
! ings for postofices or custom houses are
wanted do not look hopefully 70 this
Congress for the fulfillment OF their de-
sires. The Fifty-third Congress has a
remarkable record on the matter or
public buildings, for up to date no bill
for a new building has passed the
House, and but one has been reported
| from the Committee on Public Build
iugs and Grounds, The Treasury Is, OF
course, mainly responsible for this
record. There has been no lack OF bills
| for public buildings, even In face Oh the
general understanding that few would
be authorized. At the beginning OF the
special session they came in thickly,
but have steadily fallen off since then.
While the Committee on Public Build
ings has held numerous meetings, ii has
not vet decided to make favorable re-
port on any building bill, but has author
lied the purchase OF land and the erec-
ton OF a government printing office in
Washington at a cost OF $500, 900. In
this instance the committee did not
lean toward undue economy, Tor Chair
man Bankhead contended that economy
in the long run would be best gained by
the erection OF building which would
hold the entire government force OF
printers and need no additions or ex-
tensve repairs for many years. Mr..
Bankhead has determined to make the
printing Office the main work OF his
committee and push it through II pos
sihle.
The bills for the various cities do not
stand a great chance OF success, how
ever. Thhre are 1913 OF them from ev-
cry state, and very equally distributed
regarding sections. Il is however, we'll
understood that no appropriations will
be made by this Congress for beginning
new public works, except in cases OF
absolute necessity, and that as rule
provision will be made for carrying on
work already begun. Complaints OF
delays in the prosecution OF work on
public buildings have been met at the
Office of the supervising architect OF
the treasury by the explanation that
the appropriation for plans was made
quate. The sundry civil bill recently
reported does not recommend the 10
crease in this item OF plans, which was
asked for, SO that the same hindrance
to building will probably continue
through the next fiscal year.
