having bill passed. but this course
has not been decided upon. In the
meantime the Guard is just as far
at sea on the armory proposition as
it was in the beginning, and there
is at present no hope of solution in
sight. The town has been secured
for a building, but not one that is
suitable and which has sufficient floor
space and a drill hall has been found
which would come within the meager
rental allowance given it by Con
gress for such purposes.
Some idea of the monetary diff
Guilty involved may be obtained from
an instance cited by Guard officials
who have been looking over the city
for a building. The Guard has
$40 900 for armory rental purposes.
In the search three old and Spacious
homes were located. which, with
some alteration, might be made avail
able for an armory. In discussions
with the owners over the possibility
of obtaining these buildings 1t was
found that one of them had been
renovated into a negro apartment
house, and this was bringing in alone
$500 a month rental, or 50 500 year.
Seeking the aid of other govern
mental agencies in it's search, the
.
letters to the heads of various depart
ments and independent agencies ask
ing for advance information on any
buildings which might be vacated by
| them, so that the Guard may get in
touch with owners with a view OF ne
| gotiating to take up the leases.
an connection with the search for
quarters for use as an armory for the
National Guard of the District of Co
| lumbia," the letter reads, lit is
| thought that some of the bureaus or
offices under your jurisdiction will va
cate premises which they now are
renting from private parties and that
these quarters might be leased by the
National Guard of the District of Co
| lumbia.
With this in mind, ii will be ap-
preciated If you will advise this office
of any buildings which are to he va
Gated by any part of your bureau, in
order that we may communicate with
the owner or agent for the premises.
1t will also be appreciated If informa-
tion is furnished as to the person
from whom the premises are leased
and the present rental price. This
matter will be treated as confidential
| and will serve in negotiating any
lease"

letter to the adjutants general or all

them to communicate with the latter
and give their views on the question.
so that Gen. Stephan will be informed
as to the opinions of the heads of

before he presents the question to the
President.

, has no power to allot space in the
Pension Building to the National
Guard of the District of Columbia,
Senator Reed Smoot of Utah, chair
man Of the commission, has Informed
Maj. Gen. Stephan, who wrote the
latter, after he had obtained u legal
| opinion on the matter. This appar-
emily closes the question, long dis
| cussed. on the matter Of obtaining u
portion of this building to house the
Guard after it yacates it's present
quarters on June 80, next, by compul-
sion, owing to the ending of the lease
and u refusal on the part of the
! owners of the building TO renew it.
Il am in receipt OF your letter of
| March %, 1926, relative to your re-
quest for an assignment of space
within the Pension Office Building
and Offering to lease from the Fed
eral Government the amount of
space required for armory facilities
by the National Guard OF the Dis
triCt of Columbia, with the privilege
| of using the rotunda' of the Pension
Office Building for drill , purposes,
agreeing 10 pay therefor the sum Of
$40 900 per annum," writes Senator
Smoot.
After quoting the law establishing
the Public Buildings Commission.
Senator Smoot continues, IN his
letter:
II asked for an opinion as TO
whether the Public Buildings Com
mission had power under the law
creating the commission to allot
space for the use of any activity OF
the District of Columbia. The opin-
ion expressed to me was that the act
did not give tie commission the pow
er to do so.
II call your attention to the law
wherein it says, shall from time TO
| time assign and allot, for the use OF
the several activities of the Govern
ment, all such space
"As the District of Columbia
Militia is not an activity Of the Gov
ernment, it would be impossible TO
lease the Pension Office as requested
in your letter"
The only alternative left to the
Guard, il it hopes to obtain this
space, it was pointed out, is to get

Jay asked Congress to be let alone.
Appearing before the House Com
mittee on Interstate and Foreign
Commerce, Harry L. Candy, secre-
tary of the National Coal Associa-
ton, denied any need for action by
Congress along the lines of the nu-
merous proposals introduced this
session providing for fact-finding
commissions and emergency legisia-
ton.
Replying to the charge the indus
try is disorgaized. Candy declared
that major responsibility for such
DISCRIMINATION could be placed at
the door of the Sherman antitrust
law, (which makes 1t impossible
for operators to reach any agree
ments regarding production and
prices"
Referring to a suggestion that
SCAR or dictator should be chosen
for the industry, Candy said the
mere effort of bituminous operators
to agree to the selection Of such an
official head, with such jurisdiction
over production and prices as would
be beneficial to the industry, would
result in immediate action by the
Department Of Justice.
