To the Editor of The Evening Star:
The action Of Congress in compelling the
clerks of the record and pension division to
return to the slaughter pen known as Ford's
Theater Is universally condemned as brutal
But it has been acquiesced in, and suppose
all the communications you could print
would not change the office to another loca-
ton. There is a matter, however, connected
with the return of the clerks to the Inflated
building which can and should be attended
to without delay. l refer to the altogether
insufficient accommodations so far as light
is concerned. A moments glance into the
building Will show that the larger part of
the force are so remote from the windows
that application to duty will mean a con-
slant strain on the eyesiSht. There Is no
necessity for this. One or two light wells
could be so constructed that the semi-dark-
ness of the middle portion of the great
rooms would disappear. Some one doubt
less has authority to order this to be done
For the sake Of humanity 1 hope some
one will make it His duty to have it done
Precious little consideration has so far been
shown the survivors of last summers hor-
ror. Hundreds of them have been deprived
of their livelihood weeks before there was
any occasion for it. Let us hope that those
who were more fortunate were not retain ed
