The acute need of the Federal Gov

are now overcrowded in e-trap,

valuable records of the Government
and the lives of many thousands OF

of hearings today on a general public
buildings bill before the House COM
mittee on public buildings and

At the hearing there was general
admission of the urgency of the need
for better housing for Government ac-
tivities in the National Capital and
it was emphasized that the proposed
appropria ton of Si65, 100000, at the
rate of S25, ,000, 900 Il year, by no means
meets the needs of the Government
for Federal buildings all over the coun-
try, but is only a start on a public

PARIS, January THE French
government intends to claim DANA ges
from Hungary for forgeries of French
hank notes perpetrated with the tacit
consent of members of the Hungarian
government.
According to reliable information
the Horthy cabinet decided to allow
French detectives TO participate in
an investigation only after the
French Minister TO Budapest threat
ened Hungary with an ultimatum.
Quai d'Orsay officials are awaiting
further reports from Budapest in

In case Horthy is proved not guilty
the French foreign office will insist

ishment, regardless of their social

Canal Zone Chief Spoken of
as Successor in Tacna-
africa Dispute.
By the Associated Press

By the Associated Press
Mai Gen. William Ilassiter. Army
commander of the Panama Canal
Zone has been suggested to replace
Gen. John J. Pershing as neutral head
of the TacnaAr plebiscitary com
mission in the event a substitute is
appointed to carry on the work in
africa during Gen. PershinE's return
trip to this country for medical and
dental treatment.
1t is possible that Gen. Lassiter may
be named to act only temporarily for
Gen. Pershing. but should the latter
find it impossible to conclude his
labors in South America, the appoint
ment may be made permanent. As
yet. however, no decision has been
made on this point and probably will
not be until it is decided whether Gen.
Pershins will return to africa.

Gen. Lassiter's selection undoubt-
edIy would meet Gen. Pershing's APP
proval He is recognized as one of
the Army's best administrators. and
when Gen. PerShing was chief of staff
he selected Lassiter as assistant chief
Another advantage of such an ap-
pointment would be the close proX
unity of Gen. Lassiter's post in the
Canal Zone to africa. Gen. LaSSiter
entered the Army in 1889, served
with the Vera Cruz expedition, as
military attache at the American en-
bassy in London. and during the
