Garges explained today that 1t
had been indicated after board meet.

be upheld but that the next day
the city heads said that insufficient
evidence would cause them to dis
approve the finding as to improper

This reason is given for the

CLASH SEEN ON
BUILDING

A controversy between Secretary
Of Commerce Hoover and the Pub
lie Buildings Commission as to the
location Of the Department OF Com
nerce building now looms.
The strongest support for the pro-
posed erection Of this structure on
the Center Market site comes from
Secretary Hoover himself, and the
proposal is certain to be strongly
opposed by both the Fine Arts Com
mission and the Public Buildings
Commission.
Tentative plans for the construc-
ton of the building on this site
have been drawn, it Is said, chiefly
on the inspiration of Secretary
Hoover and without the express ap.
proval of the officials who are en-
trusted with carrying out the pub.
lie buildings program in Washing
ton.
The use of the Center Market site
for a huge Government building Is
in conflict with the Mall plan Of
development for the Capital, and is
almost certain to be strongly OPP
posed by all the architects and city
planners connected with the Fine
Arts Commisson and other agencies.
The proposed Mall site for the
Department of Commerce building
will have to be abandoned unless
the plan of placing the entire de-
partment under one roof is with
drawn. Despite Mr.. Hoover's origi-
nal insistence upon having a unit
structure, 1t appears now to be
likely that the Patent Office viii
not be included in the plans, but
will be permitted to remain in it's
present quarters.
