BUILDING
George A. Fuller Company
Seeks to Force Mellon to
Make Good War Claims.

The George A. Fuller Company
suffered a loss of $36,408.88 in the
reconstruction and improvement of
the District Supreme Court building
under a contract with the Govern
ment of April IA, 1917, and has
filed in the District Supreme Court
a petition for writ of mandamus
requiring Andrew w. Mellon, Secre-
tary of the Treasury, to show cause
why he should not reimburse plain
tiff for loses as related.
Represented by Attorney G..
Thomas Dunlap, the construction
concern declares that the work as
specified in the contract was COM
pleted by them May 8, 1918, and was
accepted by the Government, but
that in fulfiIlment of the contract
the builders sustained losses due TO
the increased cost of labor and ma
terials arising from the entrance of
the United States into the war
against Germany.
The Fuller company says that the
losses claimed represent actual in
crease of cost, exclusive of profits,
and it is claimed by the plaintiff that
they filed a claim for reimbursement
with the Treasury Department three
months after the passage of an act
Of Congress September 10, 1919. au-
thorizing the reimbursement. Plain
tiff claims that the Secretary of the
Treasury refuses to pay the claim.

Fine Arts Commission Favors
Project Giving City Finest
Penal Institution.

The Commission of Fine Arts has
announced it's approval OF the
plans for the development of DC.
coquan and Lorton, Va, where the
District reformatory and workhouse
is located. The projects involve the
expenditures of millions Of dollars,
giving the District Government one
of the largest and most modern
penal institutions in the world.
Members of the Commission, ac-
companied by Capt. John E. Wood,
who designed plans for the develop.
ment of the Virginia land, made
visit to the institutions yesterday
Captain Wood explained that this
project was greater than the Mall
development in this city and would
be just as beautiful.
The plans call for the construction
of three groups of structures. One
group at Occoquan to have the adj
ministration and reformatory build.
ings. Another group, two and one
half miles away, will house the
workhouse and the third group, sew
eral miles away, quarters for female
prisoners.
Part of the reformatory develop.
ment Is completed. Today Captain
Wood instructed Albert L. Harris,
District architect, to draw plans
for the Workhouse buildings to re-
place the present frame structures.
Congress has made an initial ap-
preparation of $4,000 to begin work
on the new buildings.
In the construction, the District
will save thousands of dollars
through the use OF prison labor and
by using bricks made at the penal
institutions. A project which in the
city would cost about two million
dollars will cost about one-half mil
lin at Occoquan and LortOn.
District officials are very much
pleased over the Fine Arts Com
missions approval of our plans"
said Captain Wood. TT is an enor-
nous project and involves expendi-
ture of millions of dollars. We feel
that 1t is the biggest project the
District has had in many years"
OF late. prison labor has not been
as plentiful as it might, Captain
Wood says, thus slowing up some
of the work now in progress.

BERLIN OPENS FIRST
MODERN GAS STATION

BERLIN, June 23.-The first
modern "gas station" in. Berlin has
just been opened.
And now, instead of having his
"benzine" served out of a bucket
the Berlin autoist can, if he is
willing to travel far enough, fill
his tank out of a rubber hose.
The German capitals lone mod
ern gas station, unlike it's Ameri-
can counterpart, works like a soda
fountain or beer tap. The attend
ant just turns cock, and the saso-
line pours forth, forced out by the
compressed carbonic acid gas which
the stringent Berlin fire laws re-
quire every gasoline tank to con
tain as a protection against the
danger of explosion.
One such filling station is in op-
Grafton in Germany, at Hanover.
Throughout the rest of Reich
gas comes in a pail.

Text of Harding's Speech Last
Night on Railroad Question

ought to try the experiment OF CO.
ordinating rail and water ship
ments.
The Federal Government has
expended approximately $780,
100000 on river and harbor i'm
provement. Only last spring
Congress appropriated $56, 589,91O,
in spite of a budget recommen-
dation of less than half. For
the sums spent on harbors we
have beneficial results. The mil
lions expended on inland water
ways, on rivers and canals, have
brought small returns because we
have put them to no practical
use. Though we expended to
cheaper carrying charges and to
facilitate transportation, we have
failed in co-ordinating service and
have allowed the railroads to dis
courage every worthwhile devel-
opment. Where b4rge and packet
service has been established there
has been such an unfair division
of the joint carrying charge that
waterway development has been
ihpeded, and where service lines
by water have been established
the hoped-for ditninution of rates
has been avoided until the plea
of cheapened transportation by
water has seemed a mockery.
No thoughtful sentiment in
America will tolerate the finan-
cial ruin Of the railroads. But
the people do wish, now that
exploitation has been ended, to
have their transportation ade-
quate to the country's needs, and
desire all our facilities brought
into efficient service.
