Committee Recommends Continu.
ance Of G. o. P. Working Capital.

The legislative appropriation bill
carrying $14.I01.145.so. for the ex-
penses OF the Senate. the House OF
Representatives. the Capitol police
the JOINT committee on printing. the
Legislative drafting service. the archi
tcct Of the Capitol. the Botanic Car
den. the Library of Congress and the
government printing office was re-
ported to the House today by Repre-
sentative Dickinson of Iowa
The amount recommended is $31S.-
$3.50 less than the appropriations for
1924 and $SI2,516.35 less than the
estimates for the fiscal year begin
ming July l next. While the bill
shows an apparent reduction of abou,
$4,000, there Is an actual increase
in such appropriations when only
comparable factors are taken into
consideration. The appropriation fol
1924 for the government printing
Office included $960.OO0 on account OF
the $240 bonus. while the bill pre-.
scented today absorbs the bonus onl,

the Capitol grounds. The committee
was not impressed with the need at
this time for the additional storage IA
cilities, but after INSPECTION felt that
the item for wiring the grounds and
for the water main should be allowed.
The present water main has been in
since 1910. During this period there
have been sixty-one breaks in the
line, necessitating repairs costing
$500
ted to commence the construction of
a new book stack in the northeast
court of the Congressional Library
building, to cost 100000. This sum
the committee has not allowed. The
need for the stack is apparent, but
not SO urgent this year as other items
requested for the library, Representa-
tive Dickinson says.
An increase in the Library OF Con-
gress to carry into effect the classi-
fication act totals $104, ,661 above pres
ent salaries and bonus. Twelve new
positions, totaling $22,320, are recon-
mended to expedite the work of cata-
loguing, which is greatly in arrears

For Continuing Plan.

The committee recommends con-
tinuance of the plan now in opera
tion for two years of providing a
working capital to the government
printing office and of requiring the
printing and binding for Congress to
be charged to this working capital.
The amount recommended for this
purpose is $2.000,000, the same as al
lowed for the current year.
An increase of $2,672,000 above
Evening star., 1924-05-22
net increase and all comparable
factors of approximately $560,000.
Compensation Increases.

This increase is practically ac-
counted for by the increases in COM
pensation in the government printing
office, the Library Of Congress and
the Botanic Garden in accordance
with the classification act, the relay
ing of water main from the Capitol
power plant to the river and the re-
place of the elevators in the
Library of Congress.
No changes are recommended in the
appropriations for the government print
ing office in the number of employees.
The increases provided cover the
amounts allowed under the classifica-
tion act. with the exception of the
office of the superintendent of docu-
ments. where an increase of $25, 900 is
granted to provide additional personnel
for the distribution of publications and
for the sale of publications.
Representative Dickinson points
that cash orders for governme mt
publications have increased from
$4,000 in 1919 to $358,000 in 1924.
while the number of publications sold
on cash orders increased from
4.7S2.0O0 to 6.623,000. The increase in
force has been insufficient to keep
the work current and avoid COM
plants.

present salaries and bonus is recon-
mended for the Botanic Garden to
carry into effect the readjustments
under the classification act. The esti-
mate for maintenance and repairs OF
the Botanic Garden is reduced by
$4,000. This represents a sum re-
quested for the reconstruction of
three propagating houses. The COM
mittee felt that before any further
construction took place a definite and
comprehensive plan Of development
should be worked out under direction
of the joint committee on the library.
The committee on the library has re-
ported q joint resolution to that end
and such a course meets with the
hearty approval of the director of the
fardens. An item of $4,000 is made
Immediately available to permit of
necessary repairs to present struc-
lures.

Three Power Plant Items.

Three extraordinary items were re-
quested in connection with the Cap
itol power plant, namely, $4,000 for
a cold storage, $112,00 for replao-
ing the water main to the river and
$35,000 for renewing the wiring on
