Notice was served on the District
Commissioners yesterday that the
owners Of the, Century building, 9TH
street between d and E streets
northwest. will not lease Office space
to the recorder of deeds after July 1.
According to Commissioner Rudolph,
Recorder Arthur G. Froe has no place
into which he can move his priceless
records of real estate ownership,
which means that a court battle may
ensue.
Attorney Louis Gutenberg, counsel
for the owners of the building, stated
last night that he could not say at
this time whether his clients will seek
to evict the recorder in July if he
does not move voluntarily.
The Commissioners cannot pay more
rent to house the recorders Office. as
the allowance for that purpose is fixed
In the appropriation act. At the same
time. they cannot comply with the re-
quest to vacate July I, they say, for
there is no other available space.
The building is owned by Louis and
Isaac Cordisch of Baltimore, and
Attorney Gutenberg will have to out
line the situation to them. before he
can say whether or not an evictment
proceeding will be instituted. Such
proceeding. il decided upon. would
originate in the Municipal Court.
Yesterdays developments served to
bring to light once more the need
for a suitable government-owned
building for this important bureau.
Congress at the last session took
steps to have plans prepared for a
home for the recorder adjoining the
District Supreme Court in Judiciary
square. No appropriation for the
structure was made, however. Even
il the lawmakers provide the funds
in the next District BILL. several
years will elapse before the structure
could be completed.

dress on the growth and success or
social work in Illinois and launched
into a criticism of civil service ma
ci,inery, when his discussion came
to the expansion of social work IN
the goyernment and the difficulties
of practical administration, owing to
the lack Of securing those best .htted
for the work.
THE civil service examinations,
he stated, do not disclose the quail

Fifty years ago, he continued, we
we're obsessed by the spoils system.
A bipartisan commission was formed
to select employees for the govern

beyond the entrance hall and the
employees were left to the mercy OF
the law"
Mr.. Lowden called the attention OF
his audience to the report OF the
American Institute of Public Eff
cheney, which recently investigated
the machinery of the civil service.
He recommended it to the delegates
for study.
Comparing the systems maintained
today by business concerns and the
government for selecting and caring
for employees, Mr.. Lowden said:
big business has employment
divisions and heads who follow the
applicants throughout their course.
Committees are appointed represent
ing employees; salaries are studied,
promotion is made easy to the worthy
and deserving and the injustices OF
the civil service are closely. watched

In introducing the speaker Homer
Folks, president OF the conference
and the presiding officer at the meet

lie, social work were brought about
in Illinois under Mr.. Lowden's direc-
ton. Governor Lowden, in discussing
these changes, gave it as his opinion
that no governor can see a successful
termination of all paths into the flu
ture unless they are lined on both
sides with social workers"
He traced the development of social
work through the discoveries Of the
sciences of psychiatry and occupa-
tional therapy by which it was given
renewed impetus.
Urging the segregation Of the

den said: IF we go on in the future

by the Associated Press.
LONDON, May l9-Great secrecy is
being maintained regarding Prime
Minister Bonar Laws condition, which
is causing his friends grave concern.
The premier. who recently left on
an announced voyage of one month
fer his health, looked tired and worn
out when he reached London this aft
ernoon from Paris and was Compelled
to rest because of his exhausted con-
dition when he reached the private
house where he is staying. Sir
Thomas Horder, the noted specialist.
was called upon the premiers arrival
and remained with him a long time.
1t was remarked, that the premier
was so fatigued when he alighted
from his train that he failed to re-
spond to the cheers of the crowd that
had gathered to receive him.
At Sir Thomas Horder's residence
it was stated that no information in
regard to the premier's health will be
given out for the present. ut 1t is
learned that absolute rest and free
dom from political strain have been
ordered and that during the next few
days Mr.. Bonar Law will be unable
to meet his cabinet members.

LONDON, May 1s.-The Bonar Law
government is passing through as
troublesome times as Lloyd George
experienced in his long premiership.
Curzon, as first mate to the premier,
has proved an unsatisfactory pilot,
and his conservative supporters are
becoming more and more worried.
Three leading indictments arc
brought against the government.
First, there is the deportation of 100
Enshshmen and Irishmen to the Free
state. and a consequent ruling of the
high court that the government was
guilty of legal blunder. Second.
came the note to the soviet govern
ment couched in language, calculated,
according to critics, to embroil the
country in war, because it amounted
10 an ultimatum. Third, is the note
to the German government. which
the great majority considered made
quate in that 1t ignored the question
of the international commission first
raised by Secretary Hughes and ac-
cepted by the Germans. Curzon is
held responsible for both notes.
All these things have served to
lower the Bonar Law ministry and
to handicap it severely in the in
