Valley Towns Work For
Standard Cuage South

An effort is being made by valley
towns to have the railroad south
standard-guaged to Santa Fe, N. NJ,
as much OF the shipping that goes
over that line and must be trans
ferred from the standard-ruaxe tn
the narrow guage cars. causing
heavy losses incurred during the
transfer and the delay Of the shin
ment.
Antonito has succeeded in getting
heavier rails on that branch OF the
ID. X. G. Western, but every ef
fort will be made to get Receiver
Young to standard guage the Santa
Fe instead of merely laying heavy
rails. Such an improvement would
save loss in the local crops and
heavily increase the shipping over
that route.
Monte Vista is greatly concerned
IN this matter as in shipping the big
crops of potatoes and other perish
able goods. over the southern out
let, the danger of freezing in cross.
ing the La Neta pass is avoided. and
the loss from this cause eliminated.
II the Santa Fe railroad is made
standard guage, this will permit Of
later shipment OF perishable goods
over the southern route which is the
natural outlet for from 75 to 80
percent of the products.
a large percent of hogs and sheep
as well as other livestock. and prac-
tically all the alfalfa and hay are
shipped south over the Santa Fe and
the time saved by completed stan
dard Guage route for the shipments
through Santa Fe would be from
10 to u hours.

DEMAND ENDING
Of DAYLIGHT PLAN
Senators Urge President to
Issue Order Favoring
Old System.

President Harding was urged to put
an end to the present daylight saving
order in the District In a speech to-
day in the Senate by Senator Dial
of South Carolina. Senator Watson
of Georgia also argued for the old
order.
Mr.. Dial suggested that the Presi-
dent should let the old time in the
departments go back into operation
June Is. He said:
Public Awaiting Action.
The public has been waiting very
patiently for the President to modify
the order in regard to this so-called
daylight-saving. A short time ago The
Star told us that by vote of 10 to
l, believe, the people who had voted
did not approve the present ar
rangements, and recently we have
read in the News that the employees
OF the government, or great many
of them. voted most strenuously
against this new scheme that is in
effect.
Il was in hopes that the parties.
who imposed upon the President by
telling him that this was desirable.
would have the manhood to go back
and ask him to revoke the order"
Disregnrded by Big Men.
Senator Watson said that the day
light-saving plan was working for
the smaller men and women in the
government service, but was disre-
garded by the big men. He said that
a young woman who worked in the
State Deartment told him that she
had been assigned to three different
offices of the big men to take short
hand and not a single one of those
men was on duty when the office
opened.
Senator Dial said that he was par
ticularly interested in the schools,
and that, while it is true that the
schools will soon be closed, he did
not want such precedent estab-
lished here.

Inspectors Office Faces
Crippled Condition Unless
Congress Acts.
LACK OF FUNDS TO FORCE
SEVEN EMPLOYEES TO QUIT
Only Three Men Would Remain
After July 1 Unless Money
Is Provided.

With the Knickerbocker disaster
a fresh and painful memory in Wash
ington, the District building inspec-
tors office faces the prospect of los
ing the services of seven inspectors
and engineers and operating with
three men unless before July 1 Con-
gress grants a deficiency appropria
tion of $4,000, requested by the Com
missioners.
The building inspectors Office is al
ready heavily overtaxed with work.
and unless the appropriation is made
the Commissioners must dispense
with the services Of seven men now
employed on a temporary fund.
Employees Affected.
The employees for whom no money
is now in sight after July / include
one concrete inspector. one engineer
ing computer and five field men.
This will leave the office with threa
engineers to compute and check ali
plans submitted-and there are scores
of blueprints being filed every day.
Only one man will be left for the
inspection of all concrete and struc-
tural steel work.
The building office today has on file
plans for ninety-three buildings.
which must be gone over thoroughly
before permits can be issued. Of this
number thirty-siX are large projects,
involving many details.
Permits Face Delay.
If more help is not made available
the result will be indefinite delay in
the issuance of permits.
Some idea of the volume of work
now being thrust upon the building
inspectors office may be gained from
the records, which show that in May
of this year permits were issued for
projects amounting to S5,036.00o,
whereas in May of 1921 the total value
of all building authorized was $2,275,
900
District officials are confident, how
ever. that Congress will realize tho
importance of allowing the special
fund which they have requested.
