INCREASED BUILDING COST
WORRYING o. C. OFFICIALS
Price of Labor and Materials Are
Above Estimate Made Several
Months Ago.

increased cost of labor and materials
is causing District engineer officials to
sit up late at night trying to figure
out how to erect buildings within ap-
preparations made several months ago
on the basis of prices obtaining when
the estimates were submitted. The
latest difficulty is in connection with
the Petworth School. To meet it they
yesterday asked Congress for de-
ficiency of $4,000 for building a fire
proof addition to the school. In recon-
mending this Improvement originally
they asked for an appropriation of
$4,000, but got only $4,000 In view
of the increase in prices of labor and
materials since the appropriation was
made. the Commissioners say they can
not erect fireproof building for this
amount
Similar difficulty is being encountered
in connection with improvements plan
ned for the Elizabeth V. Brown School,
in Chevy Chase, where it is proposed
to build an eight-room addition and
assembly hall. In this case however.
the Commissioners think they may be
able to squeeze through and get
the buildings erected within the ap-
preparation, which is about $4,000 less
than the amount they asked for orig
inally.
