Atlanta bequeathed him to ST

INTERNAL REVENUE
COLLECTORS OFFICE
MAY NOT BE MOVED

Further steps have recently been
taken in Washington looking to the
removal of the internal revenue col
lector's office from the old to the
new federal building in Birmingham
John d. Mcneil. the collector, has
objected to moving because the Of
fices provided in the new building
are not properly arranged, either for
office convenience or for safety in
handling the large funds which pass
through his department.
J. r. Van Voorhis, assistant SUI
pervisor of collectors. with head
quarters in Jacksonville, Fla, spent
Friday in Birmingham in consulta-
ton with Mr.. McNeel and ]. M. Gary,
supervisor of construction of the To-
cal building. Today they will be in
Washington for consultation with the
authorities there.
1t is regarded as certain that the
collectors office will not be moved
unless certain important changes can
be made in the office arrangement In
the new building. The suggestion has
been made by representatives of Cen
eral Caves, of the budget commits
sion, that certain remodeling be done
on the old federal building in order
that certain other government actiri-
ties and offices here can be provided
for. If this is to be done, however,
MIR. McNeel has taken the position
it would be much better to keep in
ternal revenue affairs in the old
building, where there will be plenty
of room and arrangements can easily
be made for the accommodation of
the large office force which is now
required.
Whatever is done. it seems more
than likely that the old building will
still be used to house those con-
nected with various government &C
tivities
