PRESIDENT IS INFORMED
ABOUT PLAZA AWARDS
Legal Tangles Connected With Situa.
ton Presented to Him by
House Subcommittee.

The legal tangles connected with the
effort to. straighten out the Union
plaza awards SO as to give relief to
those who are suffering from the de-
! lays were presented to President Will
son today by a subcommittee from the
House committee on public buildings
and grounds, consisting of Representa-
tives Burnet, Logue. Barton and Sum
mers. From the White. House they
went to the Department of Justice for
a conference there. The President was
not able to penetrate the tangle or fore
see the long legal battle that may en-
sue in the courts, but he repeated to
legislation go through this session of
Congress giving him authority to set
tie with all or a portion of the prop
erty owners or to have a recondemna-
ton of the property made, az his rep
resentatives deem best.
The President was told that there is
now serious doubt whether recon-
demnation can be legally made. owing
to the law under which the original
condemnation was made. In some quar-
ters doubt is expressed as to whether
the President. after the awards had
been approved by the District courts,
upon the request of the Department of
Justice, had the authority to take the
action he did. 1t Is suggested that his
disapproval should have come before
the approval of the awards by the Dis
trict courts.
Representative Burnet did not know
today what could be done to unravel
the tangle. but said that he would pro-
ceed as quickly as possible after the
legal phase of the matter was fully
understood and worked out. 1t is ex-
pected that there will be several con-
ferences with Department of Justice
officials before Congress knows where
it stands on the problem and is able to
take the right action.
