HUGE BUILDINGS FOR
OFFICES AT WASHING TON

WASHINGTON D. Cone of the
manifold problems presented by the
war is that of furnishing adequate
office accommodations for the thou
sands of additional officials, clerks
and other federal servants who are
pouring into Washington. The gov
eminent is exercising its prerogative
in this direction and has commad-
eered conveniently located office
buildings and apar rlcnt houses with
a free hand In addition it is erect
ing huge tempOra =. structures for
use as offices, and in the building of
these contractors are breaking time
records for constru -tion work. A
building to house tho 900 officials
and clerks of the council of national
defense, containing more than 1907
900 square feet OF floor space, was
three days. Similar buildings near
by are for the use of the forces of
the food administration. fuel admin
istration, and army ordnance. Work
is we'll under way on a mammoth
structure which will cover three
city blocks to house the overflow Of
the war and navy departments, the
contract for which calls for compile
tion in four months.
By these methods the govern
ment keeps in advance of it's actual
needs. At the present rate of in
crease the usual $4,000 federal en-
ployees in Washington will be more
than doubled if the war continues
another year Workers of all kinds
are being appointed, stenographers
and typewriters and craftsmen for
the service generally, and what are
known as schedule clerks, index and
catalogue clerks, clerks qualified in
statistics or accounting, and clerks
qualified in business administration
for the ordance department of the

CLUB WOMEN OPPOSE
THE ABBREVIATED DRESS

The abbreviated dress - short
skirts and low cut necks-of young
women attending the state institu-
lions and public schools of the State
of Idaho should be placed under a
ban because of their menace morally,
physically and financially to them
selves and their parents. This Is the
opinion of the members of women's
clubs in the Idaho Third district fed
Grafton. They have made the fact
known in resolutions adopted at
their meeting at Kellogg recently
which have been transmitted to DR..
E. A. Bryan, state commissioner OF
education and the state board OF
education asking the board to act.
They would substitute for the girl
students a uniform dress.
The resolution adopted was sub
mitted by Mary Nelson McGaley, sec
rotary of the district federation. She
states it was adopted following a
lively discussion on the present day
overdress of girls. The state board
of education, is requested to follow
out the suggestion made therein and
place a taboo on abbreviated dresses
for young women. The resolution
adopted Is as follows:
Whereas, the matter of dress re-
form in our state institutions and
public schools has become an abso-
Lutte necessity.
Whereas, the elaborate dressing
Of our girls has become a menace
morally, physically and financially;
prevents proper development Of
character and deprives many girls
of a college education.
Therefore, be it resolved. that
the Idaho Third district federation
respectfully request the state board
of education to make uniform dress
compulsory. thereby solving the
problem of many parents in regard
to the education of their daughters.
Enabling girls to devote more time
to the development Of mind and
character.
Respectfully submitted,
I MRS. H. c. SHAVER,
Occur d'Alene,
MRS. JAMES BABB,
Lewiston,
Mrs. JAY ELDRIDGE,
Moscow. "
The resolution will be laid before
the state board of education at its
next regular meeting.
