PICKS
ONE OF FOUR SITES
Two Tracts on Potomac
Near Great FaIIS-0therS
in Virginia and Maryland.

Brig Gen. Pelham D. Glassford,
former superintendent of metropolitan
police, tentatively has selected four sites,
two in Maryland and two in Virginia,
for the camp he proposes to build for
unemployed young men and boys.
Two of the tracts, each covering about
800 acres, are located on the Potomac
River near Great Falls, one on the
Maryland side and the other .insVirginia.
The others are located near Clinton,
Md, on the Piscataway road, and near
Springfield, Va.
Map Is Requested.
Gen. Glassford already has asked
Charles j. Maddox, Montgomery County
surveyor, for a map of the Maryland
site near Great Falls, which Is owned
by Mrs Eleanor Patterson, editor of the
Washington Herald. However, 1t was
learned today, the county commissioners
may block its use as camp, should
Glassford apply for such authority as
he has been advised to do by Charles
Y. Latimer, clerk to the commissioners.
According to Latimer, the commissioners
are not in favor of establishing such a
camp in the county.
Committee Views Desired.
FINAL cnOlCe OF IDe SlCe Will Oepe0C
upon the recommendations of "Reai
Estate Committee" which Glassford
said Is advising him in the matter of
acquiring land for his camp, which will
be combination industrial-agrarian
enterprise, The former police chief
said he would select the camp site from
five tracts picked out by the committee
as best suited for the project.
Glassford said he anticipated oppo-
sition to his proposal to erect camps,
either in Maryland or Virginia, mas
much as similar projects in other States
always have been objected to at the
start. He added. however. that early
opposition usually Is dissipated after
neighboring residents have found that
the campers" would cause them no
trouble.
Glassford's plan, which, he said, has
financial backing from number OF
Washingtonians, embraces the training
of youth for useful occupations, in
farming, industry and arts and crafts.
A competent staff of instructors is be-
ing selected, he said, from "a flood of
offers" which has deluged him.
The project will be f-nquidating,"
he said, with development Of the land
carried on in manner to enhance its
value, SO that when there is no longer
need for the camp 1t can be sold at
profit.

LIBRARY CARPENTERS

Dispute Return to Con-
struction Jobs,

The carpenters who quit work on the
Congressional Library last Thursday be-
cause of the wage dispute returned to
work there this morning, it was an
nounced by the contractor, Easthom-
Melvin Co., which resumed payment of
Sll q day following the prevailing wage
decision by the Treasury Department.
This was the last of six different
groups Of carpenters to return to work
and, according to Henry w. Blumen-
berg, general representative of the

Joiners Of America, all the men who
were locked out" over the dispute about
wages are now back on the Job.
Whether the contractors will take an
appeal to the Labor Department from
the decision by the Treasury Depart
ment appeared more uncertain today
than ever. Earlier, plans had been
made to file an appeal today and the
subcontractors concerned held out sew
eral days for an s8-a-day wage Today,
however. it was said at the Labor De-
partment, that no appeal had been re-
ceived from the contractors.
1t was understood the S1l-a-day wage

DR.. Reichelderfer's explanation follows
The purpose of the bill, sponsored by
the Commissioners, to authorize the
Reconstruction Finance Corporation TO
advance the District up to $4,000, 900
for two years Is solely to take care Of
emergencies which might arise when
public and private funds for unemploy-
ment relief are exhausted and Con-
gress does not, for one reason or an
other, appropriate the money to meet
the emergencies. The bill does not
commit the District to any indebted
ness.
The bill specifically provides that no
advances shall be made, except where
appropriations of public funds, already
made, and private funds, are Inadequate
to meet relief needs IN the District.
Such a situation arose here very
well within the realms of possibility.
Early in January, an appropriation
of $350,000 for unemployment relief,
which became available in August, 1882,
supplemented by a gift Of 100000 from
the Community Chest, became ex-
hausted before any additional appro-
priation was made. The deficiency bill
carrying S625, 900 for unemployment re-
lief here for the first part Of 1888, was
not signed until January 80, 1888. To
tide the city's unemployed over the in
terval, it was necessary to borrow $25 900
in cash from private sources to meet pay
rolls and also to allow grocers bills
amounting to $4,000, to remain tenn
porarily unpaid.
In both these instances, the Com
missioners did what are technically un-
lawful acts, under the spur of neces-
sity.
Should the present Congress adjourn
without enacting supply bill. or. If
enacting a bill carrying no money for
unemployment relief, the city again
will be without funds to take care of
unemployed persons as soon as the
current appropriation Of $625,000 is
exhausted.
It Is understood that the appropria-
ton made by the Community Chest
for relief work has been cut from
S1,289, 900 In 1892 to $524,000 in 1888,
q drop Of more than 100000, although
it has been stated that the needs for
1888 will be greater than those for
the preceding year. The entire Chest
will operate during 1888 on budget OF
81, ,492 900, as compared with $2.50O,000
in 1882.
The only way in which the extra
load of the need of unemployed per-
sons can be borne Is out of public
funds. Unless direct appropriations.
sufficient lin amount, are made, or II
those made prove to be inadequate,
authority to borrow from the Recon-
struction Finance Corporation seems
to be the only alternative.
