LOCAL BUILDERS
HIRE INSPECTORS
Beale Says District Workers
Draw Plans Which Are
Later Approved.
ONE BOASTS OF SCHEME
Healy, Costisan. and Hart Get Out
side Work. He Charges. and Must
Sanction All Plans.
ONE BOASTS OF SCHEME

Many local builders and architects
eagerly employ inspectors and computers
from the Office of the District building
inspector to perform outside SHUTDOWN
work for them So as to get on friendly
terms with the office and thus facilitate
the approval of plans submitted by them.
Such was the allegation made last night
by Carroll Beale. an engineer. with Offices
in the Riggs Building. and formerly as
sistant head of the building inspector
Office.
Employees Prepare Plans.
His statement gave emphasis to the
seriousness of the unwholesome situation
existing in the office Of the building in
srector. where employees are permitted to
prepare on the outside for private build
ers' and architects plans which later
nave to be passed upon by the same
Office.
Local builders have admitted to me-"
said Mr.. Beale, that they have discharg-
ed their regular designers in order to
employ inspectors and computers con-
nected with the building inspectors Of
flee. They told me that their original
designers were entirely satisfactory and,
in fact. were more efficient than the
District employees. but they explained
that it was necessary to give the work
to men Of the building inspectors office
so as TO be able to command favors there.
Il know one builder who does an
enormous business here who boasts
openly that he has the building inspectors
office right under his thumb. 1t seems
to me rather significant that the engineer
ing work Of this same builder is done on
the shutdown plan by ono of the in
spectors in this office
Names "sundown" Workers..
Il know the District officials ex-
plain that no employe of the office is
permitted to pass upon work which
he himself has performed on the out
side. But this explanation is unsatis-
factory. There are three men who
have general supervision of all the
inspection work. They are John Healy,
principal assistant inspector of build
ings: T. L. Costigan. civil engineer
and computer. and Frank Hart, COM
puter. All matters must BE- approved
by one of these three men, for the
other employees are merely subordi-
mates. But the fact is that all three
of these superiors are engaged in
outside shutdown work. They do a
thriving business. daresay they
make thousands of dollars annually
on the outside.
1t is out of the question for Morris
Hacker. the building inspector to pass
upon the work of these shutdown de-
signers himself. He frankly admits that
he is incapable Of doing 1t. He is an
executive officer. not an expert. He ad-
mits he is unable to analyze a concrete
beam or a steel beam or any other kind
of a beam.
1T Is an unsavory situation and one
which should be corrected. Local build
ers and architects are afraid, for the
most part, to attack the office, although
at heart they desire to do so. They
know hat such an attack would mean
business suicide for them. 1t is to their
interest to be on friendly terms with
the building inspector"

ITALY TO CALL REsERvISTs.
Citisens In U. 3. VIII Be Asked to
Report At C0nsulates.


1t was stated at the Italian Embassy
yesterday that the mobilization order
published in Italy calling reservists 10
the colors will be published as an ad-
vertisement in newspapers Throughout
the United States. 1t Is desired that all
reservists in this country report to ltai-
ian consulates, so that 1t may be ascer-
tanned how many can serve In the war
against Austria. If needed. 1t Is the
present intention Of the Italian military
authorities. 1t was said. to call to the
colors only young unmarried men.
There Is no violation Of the United
States neutrality in this action. the
government Of Italy Is free to summon
home its own subjects Italy has no
naturalization treaty with the United
States and so regards all naturalized
Italian-Americans as still her subjects,
but cannot compel them to return to
the colors as long as they remain In
United States jurisdiction.

War Veterans. last night at Pythian
Temple. unanimously voted to take no
active part IN the campaign against the
expected appointment of Col. w. f. Har-
vey as brigadier general in command of
the District National Guard.
The members feel that appointments to
high positions should be given to Of
fcers who have had actual war expert
ence. but they are also of the opinion
that undertaking attacks upon Col. Har-
vey should be avoided.
Henry c. Wilson, commander of the
Department Of the District of Columbia
explained that he was unable to find any
basis for the printed reports that the
United Spanish War Veterans of the
country were behind the campaign
against Col. Harvey. In view OF the alb
sence of any official evidence. the en-
tire matter was laid on the table.

the whole family happy:
One quart rich milk; one handful
raisins; one-half cup sugar; one-half
cup Karo Syrup; three eggs; two tea
spoons Kingsford's Cornstarch; one
half cup nut meats chopped; two tea
spoons vanilla. Heat the raisins in
the milk in a double boiler for twenty

ingredients, adding the nut meats
when cold. Freeze as ice cream. This
may be varied by adding chopped figs,
dates, etc.
