DELAY DUE.
T0NONEY
DEFICIT
.F
FUNDS Not Available for Seven
Years, Coolidge and Com
nittee Decide.

Washington must wait from
seven to ten years for any new
public buildings, it was said Off
cially at. the White House today.
This was decided at the dinner
meeting of the House Steering
Committee with President Cool
idge at the Executive Mansion last
night.
Left for Short Session.
Agricultural relief, army and
navy appropriations and other meas.
ures of national importance will
Supersede the building program in
Congressional consideration, and the
public buildings bill will be re-
ported out and taken up at the
short session. This was the pro-
gram agreed upon at the meeting.
Although authorization of a
building program will be made, the
money will not be available for
at least seven years. as the APP
preparations Committee is now seven
years behind in it's authorizations,
o White House spokesman said.
The President, 1t was learned,
favors a program which would pro-
vide for the erection of three or
four buildings yearly under an an
nual appropriation Of about $5,-
100000. The President understands
the pressing need for additional
Federal buildings in Washington,
but at the present time loes not
see his way clear to give any en-.
couragement further than that in
dicated by the meeting last night.
Fire Hazards Seen. -
Whether the long delay will be
dangerous is a moot question. 1t
has been pointed out from time to
time that the flimsy buildings in
the Mall. originally intended for
wartime use, are fire hazards and
should be demolished as soon as
practicable.
1t is matter of grave doubt
whether seven years will find these
buildings still standing. If a fire,
breaking out in any one Of them,
should gain any Roadway, firemen
believe the structures would be
doomed.
Congressman John w. Langley,
chairman of the Public Buildings
Committee of the House, has re-
Gently been in touch with the Presi-
dent on public building legislation
now being drafted. Congressman
Langley, it was learned, has urged
q general bill to cover all needs.

CONFIRMATION
Of D. {. HEADS
EXPECTED
Contest in Senate Fades.
Ball Will Make Favor
able Report.

Opposition to the confirmation
of the denominations of Cuno H.
Rudolph and James F. Oyster as
District Commissioners appeared
today to have become a negligible
factor in tho Senate.
Action upon the nominations will
be delayed only if new charges,
backed by responsible citizens, are
placed before the Senate District
Committee. In this event there
will be an inquiry by the Senators,
and there is a prospect that hear
ings open to the public will be
held.
Favored By Ball.
Senator Ball, chairman of the
Senate District committee, will
place the nominations before the
committee at its regular meeting
next Wednesday.
He will ask for an immediate ia.
vorable report to the Senate unless
there is good and sound reason for
postponing it. Senator King will
make motion in favor of open
hearings If there Is sufficient local
pressure in favor Of this action.
So far as can be learned, how.
ever, the strength Of the opposition
has been broken by the failure OF
the fight at the White House tc
prevent President Coolidge from
sending the nominations to the
Senate.
The Department of Justice IN
quiry under Assistant Attorney
General Rush l.. Holland, resulting
in vindication Of the Commits
sioners' record, has had a deterrent
effect.
Two Fights Looming.
Senator Mcclellan will make q
fight against confirmation ON the
basis of their policies as Public
Utilities Commissioners, and Sena
tor Norris is planning to make a
speech. when the nominations come
up for confirmation in the Senate
regarding alleged Mclean influ
ence" in the District building.
The opposition to the Commits
soners, so far as can be ascertaned
has not gone beyond this small
senatorial group.
