 The Rhode Island chapter of the American Institute of Architects is surely consistent in its protests against extravaganza in public building even if located in the home state. Protest is made against the proposed appro- priation for a $10 900 portico for the Narragansett Pier postoff1ce. The in stitute contends that the portico is not necessary for the appearance of the building and that the total cost of the structure, $85,000, is more than should have been spent for Narra gansett Pier on account of the size and importance of the place.
 Should an act introduced in the Rhode Island legislature become law, it would hit at least one resident of Westerly The act provides that any person employed by the state and who draws an annual salary of $2,000 or more shall devote his entire time to the duties of the office and shall not, during his term of office, be engaged in any other employment. Any per son failing to comply with the terms of the act shall forfeit his salary and shall become disqualified from further holding state office.
