ARCHITECTS UNITE
IN GIANT COMBINE
House Committee Hears the
Charges Against Amer
lean Institute.

Washington, D. c.. June 1.-The ar
chitects of the country are organized
in a ombination which fixes and main
tains exhorbitant prices for building
plans, according to testimony ELECTED
by the house committee which is in.
vestigating expenditures in the treasu-
ry department.
In this amalgamatiOn, the Democrats
directing the inquiry believe they have
discovered a new trust which should
be prosecuted by the national govern
ment. The organization is the Ameri-
can Institute of Architects, of which
Irving X. Pond of Chicago is presi-
dent and Glenn Brown of this city is
secretary. The headquarters of the
organization are maintained here
James X. Taylor, supervising archi-
tect Of the treasury department, who
also is a member of the institute, tes-
titled that the architects in the organi-
cation are bound to charge for their
plans not less than per cent total OF
the cost of the building.
Expulsion for Cutting Rates.
The constitution and bylaws of the
association contain ironclad provisions
for enforcing the per cent price fixed
by the agreement. The penalty which
any member suffers for conviction OF
cutting the price is a fine or expul-
sion. Mr.. Taylor intimated, however,
that some architects are able to cut
the price with impunity If they have
majority of the board who will op-
pose their expulsion"
The agreement to fix prices applies
only to the competitive bidding as in
the case of the government. state. mu.
nicipal. and large private buildings
Where there is no competition an arch.
itect is allowed to charge any price he
pleases.
1t is alleged that the federal govern.
ment is the chief victim of the com
bine. More than 100000 has been
paid to private architects for designs
for the federal buildings, although the
government maintains an expensive
bureau of architects. About 100000
will be paid for the designs of the new
state justice and commerce and labor
buildings.
Keep Out Amateurs Bids.
Much criticism was aroused by Mr.
Taylor's revelation that the competi
tion on the government work was not
free, but was limited to architects in
vited by the secretary of the treasury
to submit designs. This, he said, was
to keep OUT amateurs.
Mr.. Taylor told how Secretary Mac
Veagh had Louis Ayres and Phillip
Sawyer of New York appointed to re-
model the treasury building, although
it could have been done by the gov.
eminent architects without any extra
cost. Ayres and Sawyer are being
paid $4,000. although Taylor said he
could do it for half that price. Secre
tary MacVeagh is to be summoned to
explain this matter.

NO SUMMER HOME
GIFT IS ACCEPTED
President Taft Cannot Ac-
cept Such Offer-ls to
Speak in Chicago.
Palladium Specially

Washington, June 2.-President Taft
will not accept any of the numerous
summer homes offered him by the var
ious states.
In a letter sent to Gov. A. o. Eber-
hart of Minnesota the president de-
clines with thanks the site at Wayzata
on Lake Minnetonka, which was plac-
ed at his disposal by Minnesotans. Mr.
Taft states that he greatly appreciates
the offer, but deems the matter Of
erecting home one for congressional
action and one in which he can take
no part.
His letter was called forth by a mes
sage from the governor urging him to
build summer capital on the site do
mated by the village of Wayzata. ]. A.
Preuss, secretary of the Republican
state committee, had also written to
the chief executive requesting him to
accept the tract of land on the lake
shores.
Since the president has made his po-
sition on the matter clear. it is prob
able that Representative Nye, who
made the offer, will introduce bill in
congress providing for an appropria-
ton to build a summer home for presi-
dents at Wayzata.
The letter to Gov. Eberhart may also
serve as a check on the numerous in
vitations which have poured into the
White House bidding Mr.. Taft and his
family to spend the summer vacation
elsewhere than at Beverly, Mass.
To date Mr.. Taft has been invited to
more than fifteen places in different
sections of the United States, where.
according to those who extended the
invitations, ideal conditions prevail. In
most cases Mr.. Taft was requested to
build his own house.
While the President is in Chicago
Saturday he will open the exposition

ton of Piano Dealers. He has just no.

To Rid Yourself of
Nasal Catarrh, Wash
NOstrils Daily.

To wash the nostrils every day
should be the aim of everyone wishing
to be free from the disgusting symp-
toms of Nasal Catarrh.
Any one can readily rid themselves
of nasal catarrh by obtaining from
the druggist two ounces of antiseptic
vilane powder. Use a half teaspoon
full to pint of warm water, and snuff
up into the nostrils a half dozen or
more times until all the Shiny matter
is removed. Also gargle the throat.
Then make an ointment by mixing
a teaspoonful of vilane powder with
one ounce of vaseline and apply to
nostrils twice daily until healed and
cured.
This treatment cleans, clears.
soothes and heals the mucous mem
brane and enables one to breathe free
ly through the nose.

notable speeches have been made by
the President in that auditorium The
first was in September, 1909. during
the campaign, when he made his po-
sition clear on the labor question.
Later he devoted an address to an ex-
PLANTATION of his stand on injunction
proceedings.
The address Saturday is awaited
with interest by all sections OF the
country. inasmuch as the President is
understood to be little impatient at
the delay in the senate on his recipro-

ever here is that Of the Four Casting
