employees WORRIED
OVER FURLOUGH DAYS
Fear They May Lose Accumulated
Time Of Under New Econ.
omy Plan.

Government employees who have been
permitting their days OF under the
furlough plan to accumulate were won-
dering today whether they would have
to apply for these days before the new
pay cut measure, now before Congress,
takes effect, or whether they could be
taken during the balance of this fiscal
year.
Although the belief is held by some
that as the bill now stands these days
could not be taken after the new law
goes into operation, others take q Diff
ferent view.
Miss Gertrude McNally, secretary
treasurer of the National Federation Of
Federal Employees. said she is confident
adjustments would be made either in
days of or in pay allowances to take
care Of those cases where employees have
had the furlough deductions made reg
ularly, but who were letting the days
accumulate to be taken at one time.
She expressed the belief that there were
more of these employs in the field serv-
ice than here.
Senator Harrison, Democrat, Of Mis-
sissippi, in charge of the pending bill
relating to reduction of salaries and vet
erans' allowances, also stated there
would be no discrimination between
employees in making the change con-
templated In the bill from the fur.
lQugh system to the straight pay-cut
plan.

INAUGURAL CUPOLA
TO BE PRESERVED
Grant Obtains Structure, New Lo-
cation for Which Draws Many
Suggestions.

The cupola that graced the reviewing
stand from which President Roosevelt
saw the inaugural parade Is to be
preserved.
Lieut. Col. U. s. Grant, Sd, director
Of public buildings and public parks.
today secured it from the Hechinger
Co.. which is demolishing the reviewing
utands. COL Grant endeavored to OBJ
tain the whole structure for preserva-
tion, but the owners felt they could not
donate the lumber, and the Government
lacks funds to buy it.
A number of SUGGESTIONS have been
put forward as to use of the cupola.
Some have said it might possibly 60 on
the new William Howard Taft School,
Tor which vigorous fight was waged
to have the eliminated cupola restored.
Others suggest that it be placed
somewhere along the Mount Vernon
Memorial Highway on a point jutting
out into the water, while yet others
have advocated that it be set up IN
Rock Creek Park, but officials say 1t
would be out Of keeping with the
naturalistic surroundings Of the Cap
itals greatest park
The cupola is part Of the reproduc-
ton of the Federal Building in New
York City, in which Gen. George
Washington took the presidential oath
of Office. 1t was designed by Waddy B.
Wood. local architect. Wood said parts
Of the cupola are made Of perishable
material, but he would he glad to give
advice on materials to make it perma-
nent.

Cold Due Tonight
After. Spring Pays
Capital Brief Call
Temperature Is Expected
to Drop Almost to ''
Freezing.

Spring came to Washington today
almost a week ahead of schedule. but
the weather man said her visit would
be brief.
BY nightfall the temperature is ex-
pected to drop almost to freezing and
tonight the mercury will reach low of
80 degrees. After that 1t will slowly
rise.
With the warm weather, overcoats
were discarded here and many persons
strolled about the downtown streets
during the noon lunch hour Nature
also reflected the change, as a few trees
had begun to bud, and flowers of sew
eral varieties showed signs for an i'm
pending blossoming.
Spring will not arrive officially until
March 20, the date of the vernal equi-
nox this year. 1t Is rare, however, it
was said at the Weather Bureau, for
the temperature to coincide with the
official Inauguration of Spring.
The warm weather here today and
yesterday, 1t was explained, Is due to
the existence of low pressure area
over the East. The thundershower last
night and the furry this morning was
the tail of the tornado which struck
Nashville and Eastern Kentucky last
night, the forecaster added.
The Geld which is due to strike
Washington this Afternoon and tonight
is approaching from the northwest.
Tomorrow will be fair and the maxi
mum temperature probably will not
exceed As degrees.

Treasury Had Been Bombarded
With Pleas for Action Because
Of National Bank Holiday.

As taxpayers crowded income tax
Offices here and throughout the coun-
try, the Treasury last night issued an
eleventh hour order extending the
deadline for filing returns until
March 81.

went out that the 100000 who are
expected to pay the income tax could
have another Is days in which to get
ready their returns-providing they pay
6 per cent on their tax for the period
of the extension.
Unable to Get Totals.
The National banking holiday was
the principal cause for the extension
of the deadline, many of the taxpayers
having been unable to get in their
returns because of the banks being
closed
The Treasury had been bombarded
with requests for an extension of the
time for filing, and while no officials
had any comment to make on the
order, there was general feeling
that it had eased an uncomfortable
situation for both the Internal Revenue
Bureau and the taxpayers.
Washington taxpayers must continue
to pay their tax at the Internal Reve-
nue. Bureau here or address their re-
turns to the collector Of internal
revenue at Baltimore.
Orders Outlined.
The instructions on the extension
were sent to the collectors of internal
revenue as follows:
I'm accordance with the provisions Of
section 50 of the revenue act of 1882,
an extension of time for filing income
tax returns for individuals, fiduciarieS
and corporations for the calendar year
is hereby granted up to and including
March 81, 1888, and the return when
so filed shall be accompanied by at
least one-quarter Of the tax together
with interest on such amount at the
rate of six per cent per annum from

SIGN REGULATIONS
TO BE GIVEN STUDY
Commissioners to Consider Pro.
posals for Strengthening
Rules.

Proposals for strengthening provisions
of the Districts signboard regulations
will be considered at q public hearing
before the District Commissioners at 10
am. on April in the board room Of the
District Building.
The main purpose Of the several pro-
posed changes Is to strengthen the pro-
visions against painting Of advertising
signs on buildings which now have no
such signs, to make more rigid the re-
strictons on signs that project beyond
building lines and those erected on roofs
of buildings, it Is explained by Roland
M. Brennan, chief clerk OF the En-
cheering Department.
Under the proposed changes no per-
NIT would be issued for the erection or
painting Of q new sign or signs on the
walls Of buildings, except those which
abut public street or those having q
business entrance on an alley, provided
other regulations were met.
In residential districts, such signs As
would be permitted may not project be-
yond the building line under the pro-
posed changes.
Another amendment would provide
that roof signs may not be erected above
the limit Of the height for building
as established by zoning regulations.
The total area Of sign erected ON Q
building fronting on two or more streets
may not exceed 100 square feet.

sisis Of Mr.. Woodin, four children, all
grown up and married, and six grand

shape that Mr.. Woodin and the other
members Of the family may find the
relaxation they need in the quiet, dig

Branch Is Planned.

The Zoning Commission will meet
late today to render a decision on the
long debated question of rezoninz lots
on the west side Of Connecticut avenue
in the city side Of Chevy Chase Circle,
changing certain residential properties
to first commercial in order to make
way for store development.
Arguments for and against the pro-
posed change were advanced at q hear
ing before the commission in the board
room of the District Building this
morning. The hearing was the third in
as many years on the question.
The proposal advanced today by pro-
pof1ents of the change involves the
moving of the Chevy Chase Baptist
Church from Western avenue just west
OF the property in question to the tri-
angle fronting on the circle on the
west side of Connecticut avenue, the
entire negotiation being contingent on
the rezoning Of other property between
Northampton street and the circle.

asked for the rezoning, said the Federal

vicinity Of Chevy Chase Circle, and ex-
pressed the opinion this might be locat-
ed Immediately south Of the proposed
church site, thereby guaranteeing
against strictly commercial develop
ments next to the circle itself.
1t is said that owners Of property on
the Northampton street side of the
triangle are willing to dedicate depth
of 40 feet of land for suggested WIDEN
ing of that street to 80 feet. Tied in
with the suggestion is proposal that
Thirty-ninth street be terminated at
Northampton street instead of being
extended to the line of Oliver street, and
then carried eastward to intersect Con-
necticut, as formerly proposed.
Pastor Favors Rezoning.
DR. E. o. Clark, pastor of the Chevy
Chase Baptist Church, and members Of
the board Of trustees of the church
were among those who appeared In
favor of the proposed reZoning These
witnesses testified that the congregation
of the church had approved a plan
whereby transfer OF the church build
ings to the new site would be financed
by the land owners, the present church
property being exchanged.
Opponents of the plan included sew
eral property owners in the immediate
neighborhood, a representative Of the
Chevy Chase Citizens Association and
spokesmen for the Chevy Chase Land
Co., who claim there are covenants in
the deeds conveying properties in this
neighborhood prohibiting their COM
mercial use.
These witnesses included John j.
Hamilton and A. G. Doyle of the Chevy
Chase Land Co., Edwin S. Hege of the
Citizens Association, Sidney S. Prince,
