official head was not his work. but
that of the members of Congress i'm
the last session.
To make long story short, on June
Is last. Chairman Bartholdt. of the
House committee on buildings and
grounds, reported the public building
bill to the House for adoption. This
bill carried authorization for appro-
Driations aggregating $l9.2SS, $50, with
more than $4,000 addition for con
tinuing contracts. 1t provided not on
ly for the purchase of sites outright
and for the enlargement of new hnild-
ings, but for the construction also
of new ones from the ground up When
the bill passed and President Taft
placed his signature to the measure.
thereby giving it life, it was heralded
all over the country, both by press dis
patches and by special correspondents
from Washington that the great public
building had passed and received the
presidents endorsement; that imme-
diately every part of the country would

Correspondents here who have in
