BUILD FEDERAL BUILDING TWO
STORIES or STONE
Chas. Carter Presents n Bill to AM
end ApprtH,riition-l'r. ically
Assured That Durint Will
Get Suitable Building.

President B. A. Mckinney Of tn
Commercial Associatio n received p,
telegram from CONGRESSMAN Chas u
Garter Monday To the effect that "A
bill, amending the Durant post Of
flee appropriation to read For Fod
cral Purposes. instead Of For
poht office Purposes. Is promis. |
out Of the Public Building Commit -
tee before adjournment. and that Il
passage of the bill will be had be
fore the recess Is taken.
If there is no hitch, this means
that instead of building cheap
looking onc-s'ory red brick post Of
flee here. the Government will in
stead erect a fine two-stOry struc-
turc of white Bedford or Carthage
stone, which will be fifteen feet lar
ger in depth than the present plans
call for, and which in addition to
the post office force will house an |
, office all Officers employed by the
Federal Government in any capacity
| in this section.
In the original appropriation bill
the provision was made that the new
building was for post office pur-
poses" In accordance with the bill.
| therefore. the Treasury Department
could not legally build larger or
| better building than the needs of
the post office would require for the
ensuing ten years. BY making the
changes as suggested the Govern
mcnt could quarter in the same edi-
| flee he district Indian Agent. the
Tribal Attorney, the district post Of
| flee inspector, and whatever other
| Federal officers have need of head
quarters in this portion of the State.
Naturally. the additional quarters
would call for more room, hence the
proposed changes in plans.
When the discovery was first
made of the inadequacy of the con
tract for the building, Mr.. Mckinney
and County Commissioner Ed l..
Speairs went tn Washington to ser
what could be done about It. They
were given assurances at the time
that the Government wanted to erect
Il building suitable for the needs of
the Government as we'll as I'm keep
ing with buildings being erected in
tn" city by private concerns and by
the county. At the time. officials of
the Government suggested to Messrs.
Mckinney and Spears line of ac-
s.,ss Too, e
change in plans. and these have been
followed with what promises to bring
favorable results.
