new BUILDING is SOUGHT
FOR JUSTICE Department
Chairman Clark Introduces Bill to
Authorize Appointment of Com
mission to Provide Plans.

In the hope of authorizing a new
building for the Department of Justice
in the present session of Congress,
Chairman Clark of the committee on
public buildings and grounds OF the
House has introduced bill to author
ize the appointment of a commission to
start work on the plans. The Depart
mont of Justice has long urged three
million dollar building to house the
valuable papers in its charge and to
give sufficient room to its official and
clerical forces, and to raise itself to a
more dignified position than it can hold
through occupying rented quarters.
The public buildings and grounds
committee of the House of last session
was thoroughly in accord with the
ideas of the department. but for one
reason and another the bill for new
home was not enacted. Departmental
arguments as to the personnel of the
commission were believed to have made
some delay.
The Clark bill calls for a commission
consisting of the President of the Unit
ed States, the Secretary of the Treas
ury and the Attorney General They
would call for competitive architectur-
al suggestions and be empowered to
make selection of the architect to pre-
sent the final plans

PRESIDENT TRIES IN VAIN
TO TAKE STROLL ALONE
Unable to Escape Vigilance of Secret
Service Men When He Secretly
Leaves White House, However.

How President Wilson unsuccessfully
tried to elude the secret service and
police men aroun dthe White House and
disappear for a stroll all alone he told
la personal friend some time ago Every
employe of the White House is under
strict orders that if the President Or
ders his automobile or starts out of the
White House the secret service men. if
not aware of his plans. must be tele-
phoned to at once. which sometimes
accounts for their dashing at full speed
away from the executive offices to over
take Mr. Wilson when he starts on a
stroll without informing any one where
he is going.
One day the President thought he
would put it over on the secret serv-
ice men. He quietly went to the execu-
tive offices. signed some papers and
then made his way to stairway lead
ing into the basement of the White
House offices, intending to slip out of
a side door opposite the State, War
and Navy building. Just as he thought
that he had succeeded he ran into a
big policeman stationed at the outer
basement door and in jiffy after the
President had gotten outside the door
the officer gave the high sign for the
secret service men and they were back
of the President before he had gotten
half a square. He merely smiled when
he saw the familiar figures behind him
and has never since made plans for his
escape.

TO PREVENT DIPHTHERIA.
Health Officers Take Precautions in
Two Carrier" Cases.

Fear that two colored women desig-
mated as Carriers" who had been taken
from the District Jail yesterday, one to
the Police Court and the other to Grim
inal Court, might carry" diphtheria
to other prisoners or court attendants
from the Jail, where the disease has
been discovered, led doctors of the
health department to take cultures of
all persons who had come in contact
with the women.
Not only were the cultures of all
prisoners at the Police Court and at
Criminal Court taken, but the doctors
took the precaution to have the cell
room at the Police Court fumigated. as
well as other parts of the building
where the women had been. The van
in which the women were taken from
the jail to the courts also was fumi-
gated.
Preparation for the removal of the
prisoners from the courts to Occoquan
or the jail had been made by court Of
fcials when the health officers arrived
Examinations were made Of all prisoners
and cultures taken before any of them
were removed
Although neither of the colored women
designated as carriers" of the disease
have it, it was stated at the health de-
partment today, they are more dangerous
than a person suffering from the disease,
as they carry 1t to others.

Rebuilding and Repair of Stations.

There are 279 stations in the coast
guard, and of these there are twenty
one which should be rebuilt as soon
as possible. The oldest of the twenty
one stations was built forty-three
years ago. the newest is twenty-nine
years old. and the average age of all is
thirty seven years.
These buildings, which are small
frame structures, on wooden founda-
tions, have passed the stage when they
can be satisfactorily repaired and are
in deplorable condition.
Leaks in roofs and settlement due to
failing foundations have opened up
many of the buildings until they are
not water-tight, permitting rain, snow
and sand to penetrate the living quar-
ters.' rendering them insanitary. un-
suitable, and cause of complaint, not
only from the men who occupy them
but from the neighboring property
owners.

crews.
