Explained by Congressional
Subcommittee.

LEGAL obstacles i'm the way Of the leg
'sIation TO recompense the plaza prop
,rtv owners were laid before President
wilson today by Congressman Burnett,
ogue. Sumner. and Barton, constitut-
7r a subcommitte of the House Com
vittee on Public Buildings and
rounds.
President Wilson has already given
s approval to the proposed amend
uent to the Post resolution, giving the
resident authority to acquire those
,roperties over which there has been
20 dispute as to the fairness of the
rriginal award. and to obtain by private
ale at lower figures or by recommends
on, those properties over which there
nas been such a dispute.
The subcommittee called 10 the Presi-
.ent's attention the legal questions that
rave arisen as to whether Congress can
authorize the setting aside Of the origi-
nal awards.
In other words the question, as pre-
sented by the committee, is whether un-
Ter the original act the condemnation
iurv or the President had the final say
as TO the prices TO be paid. If these
questions can be cleared up, the House
will proceed At once to ap-
prove the Post resolution. Otherwise,
{ is possible that a new resolution will
re introduced authorizing the President
0 expend not more than the original
preparation of 100000 in acquiring
he property.
The subcommittee expects to call on
Attorney General McReynolds in the
ext few days to discuss these Ques-
ons.
