DEFENDS HIS NEW ORDER
FOR UNIFORMED GUARDS
Col. Harts Gives Reasons for State,
War and Navy Build
ing Plan.

III reply to criticisms against the
rev order for the watchmen of the
state, War and Navy building to pro-
cure uniforms for themselves by May
/. Col W. ". Harts. superintendent of
the building. has made a report to Sec
retary Garrison, giving his reasons for
that action. The order is subject to
the approval of the Secretaries of
state, War and Navy. Secretary Gar
rison is understood to favor the plan,
but the position of Secretaries Bryan
and Daniels has not yet been indicated.
Closer Watch Necessary.
The expense for the maintenance
and care of the State, War and Navy
department building" said Col Harts,
amounts to approximately sl06.000
per annum. OF this amount approx
mately s31,6So, or more than 20 per
cent. is devoted to pay for the watch
force. A recent inspection of all the
floors of this building by me disclosed
the fact that only three of the ten
men on duty could be found. II Is evil
dent therefore that closer supervision
of this watch force Is necessary in the
interest of the United States Other
public buildings require their watch
men to be uniformed, and the uniforms
TO be paid for out of their own pock-
cts. Among those buildings are the
Capitol. the Library of Congress, the
National Museum and the District
building The rate of pay in the Ma
tional Museum is the same as that for
the watchmen in this building In the
District building the rate of pay is $40
less The purchase of uniforms may
be made at not to exceed SIS for the
uniform prescribed. and two months
are allowed in which to make the pur-
