NEW BLOCK ASKED
FOR CITY BUILDINGS
Advisory Council Wants Addi-
ton at South to Supplement
District Structure.

Allotment of the square directly in
back of the present District Building
for much. needed and new municipal
structures is advocated by the Cit!-
zens Advisory Council in a report
made to Senator Capper, chairman Of
the District committee, today.
The square in question is bounded
by ID street, Ohio avenue, Fourteenth
and Thirteen-and-a-half streets, and in
the program of the Public Buildings
Commission it has been set aside for
general supply building for the Fed
eral Government.
1t has been the view of members
of the Public Buildings Commission
that the District government should
meet its expansion by buying the
Southern Railway offices, just east OF
the District Building.
Ia IT'S report the council states. In
part
Square 257 is directly behind the
present District Building, and on 1t
should I've erected q building suffi-
GENTLY large to house such activities
as the office of recorder or deeds, 70
lice Department, Traffic Bureau, FIRE
Department and the Bureau of Public
Welfare. The present District Build
ing is badly congeSted, and the NOV
ing of the offices of the Police and
Fire Departments. Traffic Bureau and
Board of Public Welfare would re-
lieve this congestion and permit
more logical arrangement and better
grouping of functions. Not only Is
the present District Building over
crowded, but many activities OF the
District are occupying buildings,
owned by the Federal Government.
that shortly will be demolished to
make way for the Federal building

COL. HARVEY DENIES
QUOTING PRESIDENT
Declares Expression Of Coolidge
Running in 1928 for Presi-
dency Is Own View.

By the Associated Press.
PARIS, December 23.-Col. George
Harvey today said that he was incor-
rectly quoted yesterday in an inter-
view in the Paris edition of the New
York Herald Tribune, in which he was
represented as having said that Presi-
dent Coolidge had told him he would
run again for the presidency in 1928 if
the Republican national organization
and the voters wanted him to.
The former Ambassador to Great
Britain declared that he had merely
expressed his personal opinion that
the President would be a candidate
again under those conditions-an opin-
ion which he expressed just before
sailing from America.
"If the American people want Pres
ident Coolidge to continue as Presi-
dent" Col Harvey said today, "the
Republican party is bound to renomi-
nate him. Nothing he could say
would affect that happening one way
or the other, and his only conceivable
course. If nominated, would be to ac-
cept. He could neither seek nor de-
cline the denomination for personal
reasons without reversing his unvary-
ing policy from the day he entered
public service"

EL|G|BLES SOUGHT
FOR UTILITIES BODY
President Begins Sitting Sug-
gestions-Judgeship Also
to Be Filled Soon.
BY j. RUSSELL YOUNG.

President Coolidge has at last en-
tered upon the task of finding two
men for appointment to the newly
created Public Service Commission of
the District and for a third man to
fill the post of peoples counsel for
the new, utilities-regulation group.
Since signing the bill creating the
new commission, President Coolidge
has been too engaged with other mat
ters to give any attention to making
these appointments. He sent for
Samuel G. Prescott, chairman OF the
Republican State committee. and con-
fererd with him today regarding this
matter. He asked the opinion of Mr..
Prescott regarding those persons who
already have been suggested for con-
sideration. and asked for suggestions.
Inquiries To Be Made.
The conference was concludd by
the President requesting Mr.. Prescott
to do some investigating for him in
connection with several of the as
pirants for these places who are to
be given more serious consideration
by the President.
It Is known that the President had
before him today the names of at least
10 persons recommended for appoint
ment to the commission and possibly
four or five names recommended for
appointment as peoples counsel. The
two places on the commission will pay
$500 annually and the peoples coun-
sci will pay $4,000 annually. The
President is@fequired by the law gov
erning these appointments to make
selections of only bona f1de residents
of TIE city and persons who have had
no direct or indirect relationship with
utilities in this city.
Judgeship Is Vacant.
The President has expressed himself
as being displeased with that section
of the law which requires him to se-
lect only those who have been resi-
dents of the city for three years and
who have had no experience in public
utilities matters. The President, how
ever, was represented as expressing
himself today to the effect that he is
hopeful of making the selections for
these places within the next few
weeks.
President Coolidge also has another
important appointment to make, to
fill the vacancy on the local munich
pal bench caused by the recent death
of Judge Charles V. Meehan. The
President. less than three weeks ago
reappointed Judge Meehan for another
term and must now cast about for
some one to take his place. The mat
ter of selecting a successor to Judge
Meehan also was taken up by the
President with Mr.. Prescott today.
