NO PUBLIC BUILDINGS
WORK IN TWO YEARS
Office of Supervising Architect
Of Treasury Is Too Busy to
Take Up New Projects.

None of the public buildings author
lied in the last public buildings bill will
be begunrfor at least two years, owing
ITO the fact that the office of the super
vising architect of the Treasury De-
partment is literally swamped with
work. In an attempt to bring order
out of choas, resulting from the last
public buildings bill and the number of
building appropriations previously be-
gun, but still unfinished, the department
has divided existing projects into five
classes. These will he attacked and
disposed of in order unless special -ca
sons of much force are presented to
cause this or. that project to be taken
UP out of turn.
The first group embraces pa projects
in which the sites have been acquired
and the money previously appropriated
and on which contracts had been made
prior to March 1. The department esti-
three years to finish this group of
buildings r
Where Sites Are Acquired.
The second group comprises 133 ap-
preparations for new buildings in cities
where sites for the structures have been
previously acquired. These projects are
also handled in the order fixed by the
date on which the Government received
perfect title to the site.
The next group of projects inclldes
twenty-three improvements or eXten-
sions to existing buildings. Although
this group contains only small num-
Der of items, it is important because
many of them are much larger than the
completed projects proposed for some
Of the cities.
One hundred and seventy-one appro-
priations for entirely new sites and new
buildings are embraced in the fourth
group These may not be reached for
three or four years. 1t will be neces-
sary to acquire the land, in some in
stances by condemnation, and to have
careful examination made of the abb
projects are reached three or four more
sessions of Congress will have strug-
gled with the log-rol1ing of public
building bills.
