SENATE'S SUBWAY AUTO.

But there is one thing the Senate will not
give up. and that is its subway automobile.
No child with toy could be prouder than
some OF the graybeards over this method

about a dozen passengers at a time. and

Where the general resources end and the
Congressman has to think up individually

SENATORS ARE BETTER OFF.

Precisely the same method of reducing
the temperature is used in the Senate, with
the difference that the air is drawn from
grotto nearby in the Capitol grounds.
The suction fans are similar and the air
is likewise distributed through the subway
and various rooms. But, for some unac-
countahle reason, both the Senate chamber
and adjoining cloakrooms always seem
cooler than tho corresponding sections OF
the House. The members all insist upon
this and the Senators do not deny il.
Nowhere on the Representatives side is
there spot as cool on a hot day as the
marble room of the Senate. Some OF the
officials Of the sereeant-at-arm Office,
however. declare the statement IS merely
an excuse members have for coming over
there and drinking the Senatorial lemonade.
But ion another year. the chances are, the
vearers Of the toea will be returning these
cas-. for the House IS 70 have an ultra
modern plant for keeping itself individ-
,aliy and collectively cool. Last winter an
appropriation OF $1,000 was made for this
purpose.
According 10 Elliott Woods who has the
plant in charge. IL will be constructed In
accordance with the methoA OF cooling
down brine water and allowing this 10 cir
culate through the steam heat coils. just
as the heat goes through in winter. Moist
ure in the air collects on these coils and
turns 10 frost. This cools the air, which
is then sent through the building. Al the
same time that the brine chills the air in
the pipes enough ice will be manufactured
TO supply both Senate and House and their
respective restaurants and office buildings.
Since the completion OF the two office
buildings the task Of keeping Congress in
q condition OF good nature and comfort
through the heated term has become an
ambitious project. Indeed, the expondi-
lures for this purpose have aroused such
q Juror Of protest from certain cold
blooded members and Senators-who can
look frigld in frock coats when their more
ardent natured contemporaries are swelteI-
ing In linens-that the stan of employees
has become rather wary about giving
statistics for these same luXuries. SO on
this point generslities only are possible
