Department of Agriculture
Now Has Under Lease 22
Buildings in Capital.

The Department of Agriculture, for
which the public building program car
ries two important items for the main
administration building and for large
extensible building, now has under lease
% buildings or parts Of buildings in
various parts of Washington for rental
of which $203, ,440 Is carried in the ap-
today. Robert M. Reese, chief clerk of
the department. in explaining the rent
bill to members of the appropriations
committee, pointed out that the indi-
vidual rentals range from as high as
$5S.000 year for the Bieber Building,
1883 B street southwest, down to $3.50
year for a small alley structure used
for storage.
$197,440 Remains for 1929.

made Immediately available and ex-

remains therefore, after deducting the
$50, 1916 88 mentioned above S197,440
which is sufficient to include payment
of the rent of this building at the in
creased rate. =
For the fiscal year 1899 there is an
increase of $4,000 in the rental of the
Ohio or Mckinley Building leased from
the American University for the use of
the Fixed Nitrogen Research Labora-
tory, Bureau of Chemistry and Soils.
The lease of these premises expired
June 30. 1928, and the American Uni
versity agreed to continue 1t for 1929
at the existing rental of $4,000. For
the fiscal year 1880 and thereafter, how
ever. the American University stipu-
lated rental of $4,000, but compro-
missed upon $4,000. The university
needs the building for its own expand
Ing operations, but finally agreed to con-
tinue the lease at the increased rental
proposed, $4,000. At $4,000 the rate
per square foot Is 80 cents. which, con-
sidering the type of the building and
the character of some of the operations
conducted in it, is very reasonable. No
such building suitable for the unique
operations of the Fixed Nitrogen Re-
search Laboratory can be secured at
anything like this low rental.
To Pay so Cents.
In discussing the increase of $4,000
for rental of Fixed Nitrogen Research
Laboratory Mr.. Reese said that instead
of paying a little less than 19 cents
per square foot for that building the
Government will pay about 80 cents.
81 know of no place in Washington
where equivalent accommodations could
n 7sibly be secured for anything like
80 cents square foot" He emphasized
that 1t Is a great accommodation and
advantage to the department to keep
the laboratory where 1t is until the de-
partment is In position to move it into
the new department building, two or
three years hence. The Nitrogen Re-
search Laboratory occupies 52,586 square
feet.

from the struggle that is now almost

hilate union standards and are re-
installing slave-like sweatshop con

featuring in the entire country is con-

lowering of union standards there has
an immediate similar reaction in all

further; the International does moth

concerned because of the fight they
