UsTICE PEYTON GORDON, of the

r JUSTICE PEYTON GORDON, of the District
Supreme Court, announces he is pOwerless to COM
pei Senators Coleman L. BIease and J. Thomas
Hefn to testify before the Grand Jury in the Scrvener
murder investigation.
But Justice Gordon did not hesitate to send three
reporters of The Washington Times to jail for forty
five days for refusing to testify personally to nfOrma
ton already presented to the Grand Jury
Justice Gordon announces from the bench that the
Senators are exempt from arrest while in attendance
at Congress except for treason felony, or breach OF
the peace This constitutional immunity he explains,
renders him pOwerless to act
But Justice Gordon failed to explain that these
Senators possibly guilty of misprsiOn of felony
in that they apparently had important knowledge con-
corning murder but had not reported it within
reasonable time to the proper authorities
Both Senators repeatedly had stated on the floor
of the Senate that they could the murderer or
Scrivener and that he was member OF the ponce
force yet they had not formally reported TINS 1Ora
ton to the District attorney or the Grand jury
If the Senators really possessed this information ana

There is question that the Senators hold the Grand
Jury in utter contempt for failure to take positive
action in the Mcpherson case.
On the other hand, The Times reporters, engaged
in public service, willing to aid the Grand Jury
in every way-except when it involved violation of
condolences
It would also seem that the proper procedure would
have been for Justice Gordon to have issued wrs of
attachment for the arrest of both Senators after they
ignored the Grand Jurys subpOenas to have brought
the Senators before the court and then to have given
them chance to plead their constitutional immunity
if they felt so inclined.
Not so very long ago another justice in this
court did not hesitate to order Senator to the bar
before listening to any plea of immunity. This Judge
held that the question of immunity was properly to be
argued in court, not out of it.
But then, there is difference between reporters
and Senators. failing of reporters means merely
huIabaloo in the press But falling of Senator's means

Congress and possible impeachment proceedings

failed to reveal to the proper authorities they could
be prosecuted as feOns.
And If such charge reasonably could be brought
against them-and it seems that it cOuld-THEN
THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL IMMUNITY DID NOT
HOLD AND 1T WAS CLEARLY WITHIN THE
PROVINCE OF JUSTICE GORDON TO ISSUE AN
ATTACHMENT FOR THEIR ARREST, and in the
event they then refused to testify, TO SENTENCE
THEM TO JAIL FOR CONTEMPT OF COURT.
Justice Gordon did not hesitate to warn the three
reporters that they possibly guilty of misprsiOn
of felony for failing to testify regarding prohibition
law violations that they witnessed. And in their
all of the essential information already had been
turned to the Grand Jury by their city editor.
If in the doubtful case Of the reporters, involving
relatively less serious of felony Justice Gordon
felt compelled to mention misprisiOn of felony, WHY
IN THIS PLAINLY MORE GRIEVOUS CASE IN
VOLVING A MURDER, DID THE JUSTICE OMIT
REFERENCE TO A POINT THAT WOULD HAVE
NULL1FIED THE SUPPOSED CONSTITUTIONAL
IMMUNITY?

For some unknown reason MIR. Walters plans

interior arrangement Of the building must re-

was nothing in the act to compel him to make
the exterior like the Treasury. He saw to it
that it didn't Presumably the design was ap-
proved, as required by the act, by the heads
OF the three departments, which were to be
housed in the building
The south wing was begun in 1871 and was

building. This would involve an outlay of more
than 10 millions of dollars, 1t is estimated. That
is lot of money for the budget -balancers to
worry about
The President had heard of suggestion that
the lavishly ornamented shell of the present
building could be stripped. off and replaced by
one more in sympathy with the simple motif
of other Federal buildings. A cursory personal
investigation satisfied Engineer Hoover the pro-
posal was within the realm of possibility, and
subsequent expert advice corroborated the Pres
idents belief. His decision to urge congress
sional action followed promptly. He announced
he would seek an appropriation of $2,5OO0OO
for the work.
The discovery that the State, War and Navy
Building was first projected as a duplicate of
the Treasury Building seems to have been made

If the President has his way about 1t, the
Capitals famous architectural monstrosity," to
use Mr.. Hoovers characterization, is going to
have its face lifted.
The buildings Anticipated Victorian coun-
tenance has become nightmare to him, it APP
pears. Living up on street HILL Mr.. Hoover
was able to get away from its gaudy con-
glomeration of architectural styles but when
he moved into the White House he found there
was no escape from it.
Washington's greatest architectural "blunder"
had become his next-door neighbor.
Long before he became President, Mr.. Hoo
yer had interested himself in the State, War
and Navy Building He wanted to find the
why's and wherefores Of its existence, to know
who permitted its rnanSard head to rear itself
above the stately dignity Of the White House
ing.
He could not but feel that this blemish on
Washingtons otherwise classic features must
have been an architectural accident that had
noSed its way somehow into the midst OF the
Capitals eSthetic serenity.
Inquiry convinced him the building actually
was more or less Of an accident" He has
been advised that Congress seems to have in
tended the structure to resemble the Treasury
Building, but that in the hysteria over Renais-
Sance architecture the designer just couldn't
resist the urge to "go European"
IT was just about the time that mansard roofs
were running riot oyer American residences,
too, and it was but natural that some of our
public buildings should be caught in the cpl
demic. Not that mansard roofs and Victorian
types of architecture are not desirable in their
proper places, but certainly such things are out
of harmony with the general scheme of classic
treatment accorded most of the Federal edifices
here
President Hoover believes in plainness of
speech as well as plainness of architecture. On
more than one occasion he has referred to the
State Department home as "monstroSity" or
''abSurdity" He thinks something should be
done about it without delay.

Mr.. Hoover came upon several plans showing
the White House, Treasury, State Department

there was perspective showing the projected

These drawings were signed by George q.
