Unconxenia1 Tenants.

The House appropriations committee is
pushing the project of removing the post
Office department to the so-called local
post-offfce building 1t might seem a mat
ter of comparative Indifference after the
post-office is provided for on the ground
floor what use the government made of
the remaining space In the post-office build
ing. But the previous experience of housing
local post-office and post-office department
in the same structure was not satisfactory
to either party The department was not
pleased with the disturbance of it's medita-
tions by the crowds of visitors and loungers
incidental to the post-office of large city.
The post-office. constantly needing increased
room to provide for its expanding opera
tions. was cramped in steadily contracting
quarters, the needs of the general depart
ment for increased accommodations having
of course the preference. until finally the
post-office forced out of the building
and into unfit rented quarters. After years
of labor and of hopes deferred. the appro-
priation for post-office building was
secured. and eventually the structure will
be completed. If this should continue to
be known as the local post-office building,
and be devoted primarily. the law con-
templates, to local post-office purposes,
with ample provision for the certain ex-
pansion of the area occupied by the local
post-off1ce, and surplus space should be
assigned to miscellaneous bureaux now in
rented quarters whose dignity would not
overshadow the local office, the condition
would be ideal from the local point of
view. But the plan now pending proposes
that when the wandering post-office moves
into the building nomnally provided for it,
1t shall find itself again a tenant by suffer-
ance in a structure under the jurisdiction
OF the general department of which it is
less than bureau. the department which
on previous occasion of joint occupancy
kicked it homeless into the streets. The
structure will be not the Washington post
office. but the United States Post Office
Department; and the former may reason
ably suspect that it has BEEN biIncoed out
of its building. and apprehend another evic-
ton in the future from what it had re-
garded as its permanent haven of rest.
