n EAS appear so often on our
family dinner menus that
most of us do not regard peas
as a party dish. Yet we have
only to look over menus for en-
tertaining to see how excellently
the aristocratic pea fits into our
social scheme.
We find the pea much sought
after for buffet suppers to escort
such dishes as chicken patties,
lobster newburgs and salmon
ramekins. We find peas guests
of honor at bridge parties in the
company of crisp vegetables for
salad; and at dinner parties it is
the usual thing to see the popular
pea soup ushering in the first
course of the meal.

$4,000 EXPENSE
TO SAVE S3,ODO,00O
ON i. S. Job SEEN
RemodeIing Project Halted,
Old Commerce Building
May Stay Vacant.
LEASE RUNS TO JUNE 30;
NOTICE NOT PROVIDED
House Upsets Plans for Work on
State, War and Navy
Structure.

The possibility arose today that 1t win
be necessary for Uncle Sam to spend
$4,000 in order to save the $3,000,000
it had been planned to spend for re-
modelling the State, War and Navy
Building Further, the old Department
of Commerce Building at Nineteenth
street and Pennsylvania avenue may
stand vacant until July l.
officials of the Office of Public Build
lngS and Public Parks see the situation
about like this:
The House yesterday, in passing the
first deficiency appropriation bill, made
II emphatic that no money is to be ex-
pended on remodeling or reconStructing
the State, War and Navy Building at
Seventeenth and Pennsylvania avenue
so that it might match with the Treas
ury Department, on the other side of
the White House. In taking this action
the House followed the wishes of its
Appropriation Committee, which wrote
into the bill provision that no public
money should be expended on the re-
modelling. Although a point of order
was made against this item, the House
adopted an amendment designed to pre-
vent any remodeling. Even the 100000
planned to be spent during the current,
fiscal year cannot be laid out on the
program.
Moving Held Unlikely.
The tentative plan of the Public
Buildings Commission was to move the
War Department INTO the vacated De-
partment of Commerce Building, so
that the State, War and Navy Building
might be renovated. The program di-
rected that the State Department should
be shifted around within the building,
while the renovationS were going for
ward. Arrangements were made last
June for remodelling the building, but
as there was no place to move the War
Department, without inCurring further
expense, the situation remained static.
In view of the House action yester-
day, it is believed the War Department
Will remain where it is.
The old Department of Commerce
Building is a rented structure and costs
Uncle Sam $l50,000 annually. The
Government has occupied the building
for half of this fiscal year, and as the
lease runs until June 30, it is possible
the building may stand vacant and the
Federal Government pay the remaining
5000. There is no provision in the
lease permitting the Government TO
vacate on 80 days notice, officials said.
Averse to Spending $4,000, 900.
Plans for remodeling the old Com
merce Building, enlarging its Offices
and painting it, for the accommodation
of the War Department have been
abandoned.
officials are disinclined to move gov
ernmental units into the old Commerce
Building, if the lease is to be permitted
to expire June 80.
In the debate yesterday in the House,
members made it clear they are averse
to spending $3,0O00 900 for remodeling
the State, War and Navy Building when
people are hungry and out of work.
Waddy B. Wood local architect, has
been making plans for the remodeling.

HIT "STOLEN FUR"
RACKET IN CAPITAL
Officials Say Supposedly Fine Goods
Actually Worth About $3.50
and Are Not Stolen.

The stolen fur" racket is operating
high, wide and handsome in the Cap
ital, according to the Merchants and
Manufacturers Association and the
Better Business Bureau, and apparently
nothing can be done about it.
Nothing can be done, that Is, until
the unsuspecting victims of this shady
business abandon the fear that they
have stolen goods" on their hands, and
come forward with a complaint on
which case for prosecution for fraud
can be built.
The furs, sold from trucks with out
of-toWn tags, are not, according to
Louis RothSchild, director Of the Better
Business Bureau, worth $100 or $3.50.
as the victims are given to understand,
and they are not hot" or stolen, as
the statesmen would have the prospects
believe.
A delegation from the Merchants and
Manufacturers Association visited
police headquarters yesterday and made
complaint to authorities about the
street vending of this type of merchan-
disc. The victims, according to Edward
ID. Shaw, secretary of the association,
pay $35 or more for the furS on the
word Of the Venders that they are Of
much higher value. AS matter of
fast, he said they are mostly dyed goat
skins and worth but $3.50

Plans Are Near Completion in
Treasury D:par ..lent for
New Sections.
DEPARTMENT WILL MOVE
INTO FIRST TWO IN MARCH
Finished Structure Will Stretch
Three Blocks Long and One
Wide South of Mall.

Final plans for five more wings Of
the giant eXtenSibla building for the
Department of Agriculture are now be-
ing completed in the Treasury Depart
ment, and the big construction job, to
include all five of these wings, probably
will be put on the market soon.
The first two wings now are nearing
completion between B and C streets,
Thirteenth and Thirteen Half
streets southwest, and the Department
of Agriculture expects, according 10 pres
ent plans, to move in about the Iirst
of March.
Other buildings occupied by depart
mental activities on both the cast and
west of this first unit will be vacated
to make way for the additional wings,
so that when the entire building is
completed it will stretch for three
blocks, from Twelfth to Fourteenth
streets, between B and streets south
west, and will connect with two high
bridges over B street with the head
quarters building of the department in
the Mall.
Buildings to Be Vacated.
The largest building to be vacated
in moving to the new eXtensible units
this Spring will be the Bieber Building
at 1858 B street Out of this structure
will be moved parts of the Bureau of
Agricultural Economics, the Biological
Survey and the departmental library.
From another large structure at 220
Fourteenth street will be moved the
Office of cooperative Extension work,
the Office of experiment station and
parts of the Bureau of Plant Industry.
Another substantial building to be va
Gated will be the one at 221 Linworth
HDnury, oc TTbir+ncf1-
and-a-half street. From this structure
will be taken parts of the Bureau of
Agricultural Economics, parts of the
Bureau of Plant Industry and the du
plicating and mailing section. There
are also other small buildings in this
area which are to be vacated by the
department
The next new wing to go up will be
what is known as wing No. Z, or Wing
G. on Twelfth street Only few Gov
eminent activities are located in old
buildings in this area, and other ten
ants have virtually all moved out The
new wings are all numbered or lettered
for convenience beginning at Four
teenth street and running eastward to
Twelfth street. Thus the two wings
now up are known as Nos. 3 and 4. The
next to go up will be No. on Twelfth
street and this will be followed by Nos.
l and 2, between Linworth place and
Fourteenth street, and finally Nos. 5
and 6, between the present new struc-
ture and wing No. T. on Twelfth street.
Construction Sequence.
This sequence of construction has
been decided upon in order to allow
some of the wings to be completed and
occupied before it is necessary to tear
down old structures now used.
The present plan is to have the whole
Job given to one general contractor, and
have the contract so drawn that the
several wings will be constructed in the
sequence desired.
