Less than five witnesses and only one days hearing in his office in this city is Attorney Larkin's plan of refense against the statements made by witnesses summoned by Judge Gormley. The hearing in Naugatuck has been underway nearly three weeks and about fifty witnesses have been examined.
 From all indications Attorney Larkin is not viewing Judge Gorm- ley's evidence as furnished by the parade of witnesses with any ser- ious apprehension. He has claim ed that the testimony presented to date has been irrelevant to the point in issue.

the public schools, through the Com
munity Center Department, In putting
on Summer entertainments in the park
system, especially in, the Sylvan Theater
in the Washington Monument Grounds.
Employees who were apprehensive to-
day about losing their jobs said that as
the Office is to be abolished, all en-
ployes would have to be sworn in again,
under the Interior Department.
Cooks at the White House and the
various other servants, as well as the
men who take care of the White House
Grounds, are on the pay rolls of the
ONCE Of Public Buildings and Public
Parks, they said. Should President
Roosevelt find that his White House
retinue were abolished under his own
matter home to him, the employees said
unoflcially. The employees questioned
the proper police authority resting in
the Interior Department, so as to clothe
the United States park police with
proper jurisdiction under that depart
ment.
Oficials said that the Office of Pub
lie Buildings and Public Parks was not
consulted concerning its functions in
drawing up the reorganization orders.
At the end of May there were 1880
employees of the Office of Public Build
ings and Public Parks. Under the Ar
hngton Memorial Bridge Commission,
which Is likewise to be abolished, there
are 48 workers. The Rock Creek and

disbursing officer. The Public Building
Commission, likewise scheduled for the
governmental scrap heap, hires men to
move the various Government units as
needed. A maximum of 300 movers
has been on its pay rolls at any one
time, but normaIy-when there Is no
moving being done-only the executive
secretary is paid. The maximum num-
Der OF workers recently under the Of
nee OF Public Buildings and Public
Parks, was on April /, 1882, when 3,159
employees were on its rolls, this step-up
being caused by the taking over of the
Building and other structures.
Has Charge of Buildings.
The Off1ce Of Public Buildings and
Public Parks, In addition to supervis-
ing the parks, has charge Of most OF
the large public buildings of the Fed
eral Government, including the new
bureau oI 1nCernaI Revenue, the new
Department d of Commerce-one of the
worlds largest Office buildings-the In
terror Department and others. It is a
peculiarity OF Federal set up here, how
ever, that the Treasury Department the
Government Printing Ofiice, the Vet
erans' Administration and the Depart
ment OF Agriculture not only maintain
each It's own building guards force, but
mas Its own organization for cIcopipo
the building, and none of these is under
Col Grants supervising.
Omcials interviewed today found diff
nculty in determining what major saw
1ngs are to be effected by the transfer
OF the functions of the groups abolished
to the Interior Department will be. Col.
Grant once said, when reorganization
was being talked, that whoever takes
over the job will not be able to do it

in Government expenses. The re-

The transfer of the offices of Public
Buildings and Public Parks from its in
dependent status to the Interior De-
partment has the possibilities, officials
asserted of being productive in saw
ings." However, the real move behind
this transfer, it was said, Is to place
