RAz|NG FOR JUSTICE
BUILDING IS NEXT
Buildings in Area Must Be
Vacated by March 81,
So Work Can Start.

The next important step by the Gov
eminent in developing the great Federal
triangle is expected to be the advertis-
ing for bids to tear down all buildings
on the site of the New Department of
Justice Building, Ninth to Tenth streets,
B street to Pennsylvania avenue, it was
said today.
This large area is being acquired by
the Government by condemnation pro-
ceedings under the new law, by which
the Government takes early possession
CT the property. March 81 has been
set as the last date of occupancy for
persons in that area which the Treasury
Department intends to enforce so that
the buildings can be torn down to make
way for the monumental new Depart
ment Of Justice Building.
Drilling in Progress.
According to present plans, the con-
tractor would be allowed to go into this
area shortly after April /. The place
is largely occupied by commission mer-
chants and marketmen. There is also
bus terminal and along Pennsylvania
avenue front a number of stores.
Workmen already are drilling holes to
determine the nature of the SubSoil for
foundations. The Post ONCE Depart
ment project, it was learned today, is
in somewhat a similar status, with all
persons ordered to vacate the area
bounded by Twelfth and Thirteenth
streets, b street and Pennsylvania ave-
nue. by April l. Bids for the work of
demolition, however, 1t was indicated
today, will probably be combined with
bids for construction of the foundation
of this building. The Treasury will
probably combine the requests for these
two bids and issue them shortly after
the request for bids on the Department
Of Justice wrecking job only.
Two More Blocks Face Razing.
In the meantime, two other blocks
in the triangle are approaching early
destruction to make way for the De-
partment of Labor and Government
auditorium along B street, between
Thirteenth and Fourteenth streets. The
Washington Iron g. Metal Co., which
was awarded the contract for tearing
down the old buildings on this site,
formerly owned by the Potomac Elec-
trio Power Co., is expected to put its
day or so. Most of this area is vacated,
but the headquarters offices of the COM
pany have been somewhat delayed in
moving to their new quarters at Tenth
and z streets.
The general program of demolition
in the Government program, therefore,
now points TO wholesale destruction of
large areas of old buildings within the
next few months. Old Center Market
is now rapidly being demolished for a
new Archives Building, and the falling
of the big wall at Polls Theater yes
terday made big forward step in the
fhal stages Of clearing of that entire
block to be used for a park.

E|NSTE|NS SAIL
FOR 'FATHERLAND'
German Wizard Departs
After Prolonged Study
in California.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 5-A new AL
bert EinStein-an Americanized herr
professor, for whom the boom of flash
lights has lost its terror-sailed home
to Germany last night.
Wearing the same round hat, black
coat and sagging siN, the relatively
wizard. fresh from Gtay in Califor-
MAS balmy climate, said good-by with
a smile after playing a little trick on
reporters to show he was master of
the situation.
Hopping nonchalantly from a train
Tnat brought them from the West, Prof.
and Mrs. Einstein were greeted by the
usual crowd of reporters and photog-
raphers whose presence had struck
such dismay into the fiustered German
scientist when he stopped here en- route
to the Coast.
Poses for Picture.
Waving his hand airily, Einstein con-
scented to pose for a picture.
"Aber only one!" he cried with
smile.
There was an explosion of f1ashlight
powder, and when the cloud of smoke
had cleared the Einsteins were gone.
They were in a taXicab racing to the
liner DeutSchland's pier.
That was early yesterday morning. A
few minutes later Einstein was break
fasting with DR.. George w. Grille, Cleve-
land surgeon, and voicing praise for the
cell research of his guest.
DR.. Grille explained in detail his
autosynthetic cell project, telling Of his
process of reforming and giving cell
characteristics to calves. dried brains
which had been broken down into fats,
proteins and ash.
Doctor Is Praised.
"The conclusions of DR.. Grille will be
indicated scientifically" said Einstein.
''He has gone a tremendous step for
ward in making inanimate material
live"
The German savant said, however, he
believed the cell was not the smallest
unit of life and that something better
would have to be worked out in the
problem of creating life.
It was a crowded day. Dr. Einstein
heard Prof. Paul Lorenz of New York
explain a theory of fourth dimen-
sional" music, received a delegation Of
pacifists and attended $l,000-a-plate
dinner in behalf of the American Pal
estine campaign.
Einstein showed nine violins. pre-
scented to him by admirers; several
pieces of petrified trees, which he found
in California. and a woven Mexican
basket.
