BUILDING
PLANS ARE REUSED
Treasury Architect Will Be
Saved Work.

Revolutionary charges In the method
Of conducting the work allotted to the
ONCE Of the Supervising Architect Of the
Treasury Department are about to be
put into effect there. Assistant Secretary
Robert o. Bailey and Supervising Archi-
tect Taylor are fathering the plan which.
1t is believed, will make possible greater
expediency in the work of the once,
though a smaller force Of architects and
craftsmen will be employed.
The plan involves the Standardization OF
drawings for government buildings and
parts of buildings. An instance of its
efficacy is found in the recent action In
regard to the Federal building at Ban
gor, Ne, which, devastated by fire, need
ed a new building in a hurry. Messrs
Taylor and Bailey looked over the stu
alton. They saw that the typographical
condition at Bangor were about the
same as those at Danville, Ill. Also the
population figures OF the two places were
not far different, the volum OF busi-
ness done by the post-ofice was about
the same. and the public buildings at
both places are required to house the
same number Of Federal branches-in-
AS a result of these discoveries the
drawings for the public building at Dan
Vile were rushed to Bangor. and will
be used in the construction of the new
Federal building there.
II is pointed out that the plan does
not mean that only a few types of build
ings will be used. There are at present
several hundred different types of Fed
eral buildings in the country. Selection
will be made where like conditions meet
like. For instance, when the appropria-
Hon is the same, where the climatic and
typographical conditions are similar,
where the volume Of business and floor
space requirements are alike, the draw
ings of some Federal building will be
used over again.
The greatest saving is expected not as a
result Of the reuse of general types. but
through the Standardization Of drawings
for parts Of buildings, such as doors,
windows, stairwRyS, elevator shafts,
roofs, &C. These are all being sorted
out and classified, ready to be brought
out and shipped to the scene of opera
tions on a moments notice.
The ONCE OF the Supervising Architect
has long had more work than II could
comfortably handle. Moreover, the ap-
preparation recently was cut down by
Congress, necessitating a shortening in
the stan. 1t is hoped that this plan
will make 1t possible for the ONCE to &C
complish the work set for 1t even with
a small staff

BUREAU BUILDING
PLANS COMPLETED
Bids Will Be Advertised Fol
Immediately.

Plans have been completed in the Of
fee of the Supervising Architect Of the
Treasury for the new building for the
Bureau of Engraving and Printing. Bids
will be advertised for Immediately. 1t
is believed the contract will be awarded
within the next six weeks.
The building, for the erection of which
Congress has appropriated about $780,
co., will be of brick, with limestoTS fac
ing on four sides. 1t will be of the monu-
mental type. although not as imposing
as at one time it was hoped to make
It. The site cost in the neighborhood Of
ical equipment, interior decorations, and
contingencies will have to be kept within
