PLANS TO QUESTION
JOHNSON CONTRACT

Continued from Page One
further delay in the beginning Of work
on the badly needed reconstrtctlon at
the West Philadelphia institution At the
last meeting of Councils blanket ap-
propriation OF virtually the entire s11,-
100000 loan was made, the only exceptions
being the 600 for Blockley and 100000
for the Municipal Court. Sufficient land
has not yet been obtained for the latter
project.
Councils gave as its reason for not ap-
propriating for Blockley the so-called con-
troversy between the Department of Pub
lie Works and the Department of Health
and Charities. Whatever controversy
there was has been eliminated by the
resignation of Director Harte, 1t is said
and Councils now will be called on to
appropriate for Blockley or admit that
It is deliberately trying to hold up the
project.
AGAINST JOHNSON CONTRACT.
Action against the johnson contract is
now looked upon as certainty, regard
less of how the money is appropriated.
The procedure. It is understood, will be
for the Director to whose department
the Sl,000,000 Is appropriated to declare
the johnson contract abrogated and adj
vertlse for competitive bids from archl-
tects.
1t then will be UP to Johnson to carry
the matter into the courts, halt the work
on Blockley by injunction and attempt
to prove the legality of his contract.
Previous decisions in his favor II Is
pointed out now, are by lower courts
This is taken to indicate that tho matter
will be carried to the Supreme Court on
its merits. The feeling among those who
oppose the johnson contract Is that the

GERMANY SILENT ON PLANS
FOR ARMS EMBARGO LAWS

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13-The German
Government will withhold any formal ex-
preston of its attitude on the matter of
American legislation designed to prohibit
the exportatlon of arms from this coun-
tfy to the European Allies, according to
persons in close touch with the German
Embassy here.
This refusal of the German Government
to commit itself, 1t is believed, was con-
veyed to Representative Bartholdt, of
Missouri, and Vollmer, of Iowa, who con-
iered with German Ambassador Won
Benstorff
In the opinion of those who are In close
touch with the situation, 1t would be in
consistent for Germany to voice any oppo-
lton to any American shipment of arms
70 the Allies, inasmuch as this practice
does not violate any principle of The
hague treaties. II the German fleet con-
rolled the Atlantic, the arms would go

COOKE REFUSES TO COMMENT.
Director Cooke refused today to maks
any comment on statement issued By
DR.. Richard H. Harte, former Director Of
the Department Of Health and Charities.
in which the ex-Director asserted that
when he attempted to bring up for discuss
sion at n meeting of the Mayors Cabinet
the matter of Philip II. Johnson's perpet-
ual architectural contract with the Health
Department only vilihcation Of the arcri-
tect was ELECTED from the Mayor and
Director Cooke.
FRICTION WITH WILSON PERSONAL.
THE attempt on the part Of the Mayor
and Director Cooke to villfy the archi-
tect in question" as declared by Doctor
Harte, was doubtlessly along the line ex-
pressed by Director Cooke in his annual
report, where he said. For the archl-
lecture Of the city to reach very high
level is impossible so long as Philip II.
johnson is continued as the principal con-
sultlnB afchltecI lhht opliioh 10 hioWh
to be similar to the one held by the
Mayor on the johnson perpetual con-
tract" obtained by Organization power
during the Ashbridge Administration in
1903
Doctor Harte in his statement declares
that his friction with Alexander NJ Will
son, Assistant Director of the Health De-
partment was purely a personal matter
and that the real difficulty arose over
Johnson. The contract of johnson would
yield him 100000 in the 100000 recon-
structIon Of Bloclsley planned by Doctor
Harte.

CITY COAL BILL CUT $4,000
Price to Be Paid in Current Year
Shows Material Shrinkage.

Seventy thousand extra dollars will
tinkle in the City Treasury because of the
foresight of the administration in pre-
pairing its coal specifications for the cur
rent year, Director Loeb estimates. The
average bids for each class of coal were
slightly lower than those of last year
and the specifications also provide that
the city shall have the benefit of the lower
freight rate schedule fixed by the Public
Service Commission. This lower schedule
goes into effect January IS,
If the same quantity of coal Is used by
the city as was used in 1914 the actual
saving to the city, Director Loeb thinks
will be about $4,000, while a further
saving of $4,000, he estimates. will be
made under the lower prices asked by
bidders to whom the contracts have been
awarded. Roughly. 1t is estimated that
prices average about l per cent lower
than last year

Tha reasons for uneaslness In the
