FEDERAL BUILDING
MO VEMENT SLOW

This dictim applies not only to Buck
harmon but to all other towns who
drew public building appropriations
under the act of 1913 The officials
in charge say that the government
architects are two years behind In
their drawings.
The work is being taken up In the
order of seniority, and Buckhannon
has not been reached, nor will it be
for some time to come. The same
applies to Hinton. The initial appro-
pration for the latter town was $780,
900, which citizens Of that place con-
slider entirely too small. The postal
authorities quite agree with them,
and they recommend that the appro-
priation be increased to $4,000.
Captain Avis has introduced bill
calling for additional appropriation
of $4,000, and hopes to ultimately
get at least $4,000 If forced to take
less than the amount called for in his
bill. He has also introduced a bill
to have terms of federal court held
at Hinton, and the idea is to have
room provided for holding this court
in the proposed new building.
