lSpeclal 10 Inc Post,l
Washington, September "a new plan
to meet complaints with regard to pro-
posed sites for public buildings has been
adopted by Assistant Secretary Taylor Of
the treasury department AS soon as the
site for proposed new building mas been
selected the department will make the fact
known by posting a public notice giving the
location for the building. The notice Will
invite the people to communicate with the
treasury department regarding their views
on the site selected. III at the expiration
Of thirty days no protests worthy OF con.
sideration have been HE'D the purchase Of
the site viii he completed If, however, Oh
the other hand. the protests received seem
valid, MIR. Taylor will order au iuvestiga.
ton aud, II necessary. order Il new site 70
be selected. This departure OF Mr. Taylor
from the old method OF simply selecting
sites without considering the Views of the
people or paying special attention to their
protests Is of Interest TO almost every
state, as postofbces, ctlstom houses and
other public buildings have been authorized

the opinion at the treasury department that
congressman should in the future limit
their influence so FAR as the selection Of
public building sites is concerned to the
town or city In which they live II is be.
lieved al the department that this would
give more satisfaction TO the people
throughout the country who would then
not feel as II their opinions were out
