NEW HOME FOR PORTION
OF TREASURY FORCES
Building to Be Constructed for Reg
listers Clerks and Loans and
Currency Employees.

There Is to be constructed in the
grounds Of the bureau Of engraving and
printing as war emergency a building
that Is to house working forces Of the
register Of the Treasury and Of the d.
vision Of loans and currency of the
Treasury Department.
By this means a concentration of as
sociated activities is to be accomplished
No more-when the building is built and
will the carefully guarded wagon of the
bureau of engraving and printing have
to make so many daily trips between the
bureau and the Treasury building, carry-
ing bonds and other securities. If the
force of the United States treasurer is
also assembled at the bureau plant 1t
will not be necessary to carry to and
fro the great bulk of paper currency
Mr.. Wilmeth's Idea.
The Idea was evolved by director
James L. Wilmeth about ten days ago,
and has been approved by Secretary
McAdoo Of the Treasury. Bids for con-
struction of the building will be ad-
vertised for about February 19, and con-
struction begun soon as it can be
done.
The building is to be located between
the two south wings of the bureau
structure. One story in height it is to
provide from 5000 to 5000 square feet
of floor sp1ce.
The forces to be taken. over are the
bond handling and shipping clerks of
vision of loans and currency. In the
Treasury Department building. always
badly congested. needed room will be
made by the transfer of workers.
