Public Buildings Bill at This Time Would Be
 Useless
HOPES FOR ECONOMY
 IN HOUSE ACTIONS
Appropriations Made at This Time Cannot Be Made Available For at Least Three
 Years
By WALTER HARPER

Washington, January 27.-(Special.)-Os- car Underwood, leader of the majority in the House, is really concerned over the situation that confronts the democratic party on the question of public buildings bill at this session. This matter is to be threshed out at the caucus Monday night. Mir Underwood and the other leaders of the party do not want public buildings bill passed at this session. Individual members desire building appropriations for the benefit of their constituents. Or rather for the benefit of themselves.
 The leaders declare that appropriations for public buildings made this year cannot be made available for at least three years, but the passage of a bill will swell the aggregate Of this years appropriations and interfere with the party's programme for economy.
 MT. Underwood desires that these ap- propriations be delayed for at least an other years, as appropriations made at this time cannot be made available for at least three years. The supervising archi- tect of the treasury department has re- ported to Congress that his office is about three years behind with the work of de- signing plans for buildings already pro- vided for The passage of a buildings bill at this session win be useless except for campaign purposes in the districts of the favored members.
 If MT. Underwood is oA Il in his contention for delay in the 5e of a public csbuildings bill the leade.s lear that he will be unable to control the situation as to other expenditures in which the pork barrel idea is involved
 The treasury is now facing a serious de felt in spme of all the economies that the democrats hope to Inaugurate. A large deficit at the end Of this year would be most embarrassing to the democratic party though the party may be in no way responsible for the condition.
 In view Of the fact that building appro- priations cannot be made available for some time, or at least until after the sft- ting of another Congress, Leader Under wood is hopeful of persuading his col leagues to forego the empty accomplish Iaenl of one or two building appropria- tons that would be practically useless ex- cept for local campaign purposes.
 The general success of the party should be put aoove any personal ambition, and it is to this loyalty that the leaders ap- peal.

Say, b-o-y-s," funny Miss Trixie Fri ganzas irresistible drawl was confidng over the footlights around at the Jefferson Saturday, you know I'm readily get ting so fat that about the only ready made garment l can wear is a HAND E-ERCHIEF."
 But you aren't really" I protested, as had a little chat with her just before the matinee.
 "Of course not said she, mopping her flushed face with Eau de Cologne and pink powder. "The truth is. I've lost F pounds, and you know I can't afford te lose any flesh at all Why, this one nghi stand business is like a course in trainin at Muldoon's."
 But why?' I interrupted.
 "Why do I call myself FAT?" she fin ished out my question. "Tll confide lit- t'e secret t1 you. The moment I confess to the American putlic that I'm one oj the fattest Comediennes of the American stage then the American public rises CT Hpasse and defends mo from MYSELF!'
 You don't mind your-er-er flesh then?" I asked seriously
 "No indeed-y," she smiled back at ms as she pinned shiny bunch of jet black curls in place. "Of course not, for my flesh is all mine.''
 Were you ever slim?" I asked
 "I'll tell you another little secret" shs said in her clevers attractive way.
 There's a tradition that when I was 8 baby in my mothers arms l was very sylph-like one. but that's tod long ago foi you to possibly expect me to remember If I'd kept on being slim, though, I would never have had a career. Many women tell you that their face is their fortune but my fortune please quote me correctly here) is my flesh. For every pound ] lose, l feel I am throwing away laugh That's the only tragedy that could come to me-throwing away my laughs
 Funny thing,% continued Miss Fri ganza, but did you ever see anybody laugh at a slim woman unless she wore comcal clothes? The thin ones tears all right, all right, but the au- dience out in front saves up the tink- ling, merry 'Ha-Has,' for the woman who is so fat that she has to harness herself up in all these new fangled straight corsets and things, like a horse and buggy"

Weather Conditions

Birmingham, January 27.-(7 ?. m.)-The barometric pressure is falling throughout the gulf region and the southwest, attend ed by increasing cloudiness and few scattered showers. Unreasonably warm
 weather is also a noteworthy feature or the present atmospheric pressure condi- tions. No decidedly high or low areas arc
 found on the map or have been noted dur ing the past several days, consequently
 there has been very little interchange of
 air with the cold regions to the northward.
 This combined with the fair weather
 that has prevailed for several days has al-
 lowed the sun to exercise it's full influence
 over southern regions, running the tenn
 nerature far above the seasonal normal. However, 1t is far from warm in the north. Some zero readings occurred to- day, and the freezing line at I D. m. Sat- urday extended down to the Ohio and lower Missouri valleys.
 The unreasonaby high readings are con- fined chiefly to the gulf states. About the normal temperature prevails in Ten nessee, Oklahoma and the Carolinas Temperature conditions will not change much in Alabama Sunday. The weather here will be unsettled and scattered rains I are probable
