ANOTHER ECONOMY BREAK.
House Committee to Report $685.
100000 Public Buildings Bill.

Contrary to the advice of Representa-
tive Underwood. the majority leader. the
House Committee on Public Buildings
and Grounds voted yesterday to report
a public buildings bill at this session.
The bill. commonly called the pork bar
REL" probably will carry from 10000. oOe
to So, 100000 Its passage through the
House. however, is not assured, for it
will be fought by those Democrats who
are advocating economy.
1t is understood that Mr.. Underwood
is opposed to a large rivers and harbors
bill at this session. The passage of the
Sherwood dollar-a-day pension bill will
add about $45,0O0,000 to the pension rolls
if the bill becomes law, and the House
economists feel that the revenues cannot
stand further inroads.
If the Public Buildings Compittee ad-
heres to its resolution, the pork barrel
will be brought into the House soon after
