ATTORNEY GENERAL
SEEKING NEW HOME
Says Department of Justice
Needs Building to House All
Branches Under One Roof.

Congress is urged to make an appro-
priatiun for the construction OF a new
building for the Department Of Justice
in the first annual report of Attorney
General Gregory, made public today.
Attention is again called" Mr. Greg
DRY says in his report. to the urgent
need of building for the department.
which now occupies seven buildings
originally constructed for residential
purposes. with an overflow in a modern
office building. The seven residential
buildings are not fire proof. are without
vaults. and the office records are con-
Stantly exposed to destruction by fire.
The scattered location OF the buildings
and the bad interior arrangement Of
them. due to the fact that they were
not designed for business uses. and the
present crowded and insanitary condi-
Tions, prevent proper organization ana
renders high degree of efficiency i'm
possible.
"A new building would be greatly in
the interest Of both efficiency and
economy in the service. Section 81 OF
the public building act approved June
/ %. 1910. authorized the Secretary of the
Urea sury to prepare designs and esti-
mates for separate fire-proof building,
but did not authorize its construction.
A site has been purchased by the Gov
eminent, and a bill was introduced in
the last Congress making an appropria-
ton for construction. 1t is recommend
ed that this bill be passed at the earli-
est possible date
Believes Laws Anticipated.
Another matter of local interest dis
cUssed in the Attorney Generals report
was the forthcoming report of the com
mittee named by his predecessor to
amend, revise. and codify the laws in
force in the District of Columbia per
tanning to children and to the jurisdic-
ton of the juvenile court. This commit
tee. of which Bernard FlaXner. of Chi
cago is chairman. is preparing a re-
port and a draft OF a code adequate to
give the District satisfactory laws upon
these subjects which might be used as
a general model.
7 am of the opinion" Mr.. Gregory
says. that the present Juvenile laws Of
the District of Columbia are Anticipated.
Copies OF the report of the committee
and of the proposed revision Of the ju-
venile code will be transmitted to Con-
Gress with the hope that they may have
earnest consideration"
Urges Younger Judges.
Attorney General Gregory renewed the
recommendation of his predecessor.
Supreme Court Justice McReynolds.
that where Federal judges refuse TO re-
tire at the age OF seventy. younger
judges should be appointed to take
charge of their courts. An amendment
; 10 the commodities clause of the inter
state commerce &C. prohibiting rail-
roads from tram orting interstate
commerce articles watch they manufac-
ture or produce is recommended.
The report noted 435 indictments, 351
convictions, SO acquittals. and IS con-
tinuances under the white slave act
during the year. ViolG lions Of the
bankruptcy act also brought larger
number OF prosecutions.

GEORGE WESTINGHOUSE.

George Westinghouse died Friday
after long and useful life, renowned
as a successful inventor and engineer.
Because of the air-brake and the
great manufacturing plant he built in
the course of his lifetime his name is
well known, but it is probably only
in this statistical way that most per
sons remember him. They do not real
ize the great service he has done for
mankind.
The air-brake is often spoken of as
having saved more lives than Napoleon
lost in all his battles. 1t is because
Westinghouse services have been of
the preventive kind, have lacked the
spectacular features of other meas
ures. that they are forgotten. The
world owes a debt to him which should
be acknowledged in some fitting way.

In America there are beauties of ma
ture which far excel any of the
grandeur of Europe The Canadian
Alps, the Grand Canon, the wonderful
Yellowstone, the delightful California
Europe has nothing to COM
pare with these. and yet every year
Americans go to Europe.
But in Europe We find antiquity COW
cred with the ivy of romance. We
walk over spots hallowed because of
the bloodshed. strife and decisions
which nodded the history of the world.
We live over again the struggles, the
ambitions and the achievements of
Charles Martel, Bonaparte and Peter
the Great. We see the work of those
master artists and architects. Ameri-
ca has nothing of this sort to offer.
America with her brief century is not
historical. We have beautiful exteri-
ors and vast opportunities but We
must see Europe for the antique and
penetrating memories.
See Europe soon, for already the
modern commercialism is intrudine
into those moss-covered, out-Of-the-
way places. Many cities already differ
but little from those of the West Eu-

meantime. Stella makes an unhappy
marriage with Stephen Ballantyne, is
