Why MOI 4 BUILDING
Well Defined Sentiment That Mar
shalltown Should Have a Gov.
eminent Building.
One Can Probably Be Secured If an
Effort is Made and the People
Demand It.
A Concerted Move Should Be lnaug.
urated and Legislators Asked
To Act.

There is we'll defined sentiment that
should have federal
building. For some time past this SEN
timent has been growing and from
present indications will resolve itself
into concerted effort to bring about this
result.
Assurances have been received from
members of the congressional delega-
ton that if an appropriation for build
ings is made by the coming congress
Marshalltown's interests will be looked
after if the people provide something
tangible on which to work and on
some of our representatives in congress
have been criticised for their apparent
inactivity in behalf of Marshalltown
and Marshall county, the fault, if there
be any, lies wholly with the people.
for buildings and inn
provements are not made by congress
simply on request of one of the repre-
sentatives in the national legislature.
Neither our congressman nor one of the
senators has been Informed that Mar
shalltown desires a government build
ing. A senator or congressman must
have something to back up his requests.
In view of the fact that no city in this
immediate section of the state has
asked for or received an appropriation
of this kind. and with the postal bust
ness in this city very heavy and con-
stantly increasing, Marshalltown is
now in strong position TO make de-
mana on the government. Several cities
Iof the state have within the past yeai
or two secured appropriations for post
office buildings. and a majority of the
Offices in these cities do not do the bust
ness that the Marshalltown Office does
The business men and citizens shoult
| get together, formulate Marshalltown'!
claims. and the chances are that thi:
city will be in the list of favored one
when the next appropriation is made
| We have been too modest heretofore.
