MEASURE INTRODUCED
TO DENT PORK BARREL
Provides for Report on Building
Projects Before Any Appro-
priation Is Made.

| A knock calculated to take off a
| hoop or sma sh in the pork barrel is
aimed in a bill introduced in Con-
gress which would require all meas
ures concerning federal buildings to
be submitted to the Secretary of the
Treasury for investigation and report
as to whether the proposed buildings
! and sites are needed and the expendi-
| ture justified. and as to the lowest
cost at which buildings found nces-
| sary may be erected with economy and
efficiency"
| The bill was introduced by Representa-
| tive Sheppard, and has been referred to
the committee on public buildings and
| grounds
The measure will undoubtedly be re-
ferred to the Secretary of the Treasury
for consideration, report and recon-
mendation. Whether such a measure
fills the administrative conception of
what ecautions should be taken
against extravaganza and waste in pub
lie buildings will be indicated in Sec
rotary McAdoo's answer. 1t may not
be or it may just be the legislation
desired: at all events the Sheppard
bill is recognized as in intent an at
tempt to do the desirable thing in curling
the waste of public moneys in ex-
penditures for buildings far beyond the
| they are erected and to the detriment
of larger communities which have
difficulty in obtaining the barest facili-
ties.
The Sheppard bill would have the
Secretary of the Treasury investigate
and report on bills which provide for
either building or site. The bill pro-
vides:
THE Secretary of the Treasury shall
investigate the necessity or advisa bility
of a building in the city or town sug-
gested, taking into consideration the
size of the city or town. the rental
paid for existing quarters, the cost
of the proposed building and site, the
cost of annual maintenance, the
branches of the government service
to be accommodated and such other
items as may enable him to make i
comprehensive report to Congress-
Consultation is suggested with such
other branches of the government as
require accommodations in the city Or
town for which the bill was introduced.
The Secretary of the Treasury is then
required to lay before Congress the
results of his investigation and to
state whether in his Judgment the
needs and interests of the government
service require the enactment of the
bill, whether the expense is justified
and also the lowest cost at which q
building found necessary or advisable
may be erected, consistently with
economy and efficiency"

How the Junior Republic makes men

circular letter. 1t follows, in part:
This colony of young boys was es-
tablished under the auspices of the Ma
tional Junior Republic Association.
which aims to instiIl into the minds of
boys the principles of self-government
tual powers and duties of citizenship
in a miniature state, wherein are op-
Grating the same economic. social and
civic conditions that they will find
outside on leaving the republic.
1T is not an institution, in the COM
monty accepted sense of the term
where officers have absolute authority
it Is not merely a school with in
structors and rules. 1t is what its
name Signifies Junior republic; a re-
public of the boys. by the boys and for
the boys. Its object is to prevent crime
to develop character and to promote
good citizenship with boys who may

Give the boy chance"
That is the idea. briefly summarized.
behind a movement started today in
Washington by which it is hoped to
make thousands of Washingtonians
take an active interest in the National
Junior Republic at Annapolis Junction,
Nd. Many persons prominent in the
civic. business and social life of the
capital are already interested in this
institution, which has done much. and
is still doing. for the youth of America.
Two specific purposes are held in
view by those who today started work
to arouse renewed interest in the re-
public. namely. to obtain members for
the body which supports the republic
in part and to raise funds.
Five thousand circular letters and
accompanying booklets describing the
activities and work of the republic
were sent out this afternoon. One of
the points emphasized in the letter is
that all interested persons not only
themselves should join but that they
should urge some friend to become a
member.
