WE NEED

WE NEED EFFICIENCY.-Psy-
biologists, mind scientists, are today
always emphasizing their conclu-
sions by appealing to common sense.
We might urge that a little of the
latter be applied to the construction
of postofces and libraries. Why
should these valuable land sites and
property be sacrificed to wasteful
ceiling and wasteful external space,
utility and space everywhere sacri-
feed to the limit of extravagant
wastefuIness?
In this age, when efficiency, utility
and beauty can be combined with
practically all waste eliminated, it is
criminal to take our ideals from the
wasteful and monumental.
The majesty Of mountain scenery
and its wastefulness may appeal to
your admiration, but it is not APP
propriate to the activities of every
day life in our building architecture.
The shoTt-sightedness in the adOp-
ton of this form of architecture is
always shocking us by its absurdity
and shortcomings.
If the P. A. has extra deliveries to
make the ineficiency is immediately
apparent.
