PUBLIC BUILDINGS ACT
NOT invalid, He SAYS
Senator Sutherland Declares
That Congressional Rec
ord Is Wrong.

Senator Sutherland. former chairman Of
the Senate committee on public buildings
and grounds. today put a quietus on the
report that there was a flaw in the public
buildings act approved during the final
hours of the last Congress which would
inyalidate the law.
Criticism of the act was made by Mi
nority Leader Mann Of the House. who
pointed out that the Congressional Record
showed that the full conference report on
the public buildings bill had never been
adopted In tie senate, but only that part
of the report dealing with four items
which had been stumbling blocks in the
path of final agreement.
Senator Sutherland declared that mis-
take had been made in printing the Con-
gressional Record: that, as a matter OF
fact he had submitted a report covering
al the items In conference between the
two houses. and that this report had been
agreed to- To substantiate his statement,
Senator Sutherland showed both the Sem
ate journal. which is the official record
OF the Senate. and the original Of the
conference report which was agreed to-,
now in the Office of the secretary Of the

Cause of the Mistake.

Senator Sutherland said that when he
brought in the final conference report
about midnight of March 3 he had re-
auested that that part of the report
with which the Senate was familiar be
not read. and that only the part OF the
report relating to the four items which
had held up final agreement be read. This
was done. He stated on the floor OF the
Senate. however. that the conference re-
port covered the entire measure He said
today that apparently the Record clerk
had not had time to get the whole of the
conference report printed in the Record,
and the mistake had therefore arisen.
Mr.. Mann's conclusion was justified
when viewed from the printed Congress
sonal Record. perhaps" said Senator
Nutheria.d. but as a matter Of fact, and
as the Senate journal shows. the Con-
gressional Record was incorrect"

SCHOOL CHILDREN TO

NORTH SIDE PUPILS WILL BE
TAKEN CARE OF WITH
BIG AUTO.

As n solution to the school problem
which has been confronting the men,
bers of the board since the opening
day, hereafter the younger students
who have been transferred TO the
north side school to relieve the crowd
ed conditions OF the Washington and
Hawthorne schools will be hauled to
and from the school in an auto truck.
The announcement was made this
morning by superintendent Landers.
There has been an effort made on
the part of some parents to secure
the opening of the old Field school
to relieve the congestion but for rea-
sons of economy as well as sanitation
and safety, the board was very much
averse to this action. Until the Star
street bridge Is completed, therefore.
they have decided to transport the
little ones to and from the school All
members of the grades from the first
to the fifth inclusive are entitled to
the ride by assembling each morning
by $3.50 at the Field school. The
new practice will commence in the
morning.
