emergency needs after the stacks are
finished.
The new Archives Building pro-
vides the latest and most approved
methods Of fire protection. A heat
detection system is used instead Of
the usual sprinkling system. which
was found not so well suitable for
archives. BY this system, 1t was said,
the slightest change in temperature
from normal would set OF an alarm
to warn guards. Under any circum-
stances. the very rigid inspection and
guard service for the archives would
make it practically impossible for any
fire to gain headway before it Is ob-
served.
viii Aid ONCE Problem.
Completion Of the extension, prob
ably about the time the new $l2,00O.-
600 Interior Department Building is
ready for occupancy, should go long
way toward solving the Governments s
problem of Office space. unless the
New Deal Is in for another era Of
expansion. First it will release the
large space in permanent Govern
ment buildings now utilized for the
storage of records. This not only
will permit the equipping Of these
buildings with fireproof storage rooms
for the records which are to be re-
tanned but also will provide addi-
tional ONCE space for employees.
The fact that it took the Procure
ment Division 18 months to award the
first contract for the Archives ex-
tension served in some quarters to
Evening star., 1935-12-15

the Government for office space might
necessitate the temporary removal Of
some emergency agencies to Baltimore
or some other nearby city.
After more than three years trying
to solve the problem of rented quar-
tiers, Ickes finds the Government is
now renting 2,5Oo0oO square feet Of
ONCE space. With a shortage Of
available business property, the Gov
ernment has been forced to rent two
town houses, two apartment buildings
and the Washington Auditorium in
recent months.
The inquiry started by the fire in
the Post ONCE Building was two
fold. While the question of extend
ing District government fire lnspec-
ton to Federal buildings was fore
most, Interior Department officials
who have supervision over Federal
buildings in Washington-were only
a little less concerned over the present
unsafe and inadequate storage facili-
ties for the irreplaceable records Of
the Government.
1hCy lCNd1lCd bAldb uo 1OllB aBO 10
September l8, 1884, Secretary Ickes
had allotted funds for the extension
of the Archives Building Inquiries
developed that the first contract
finally had been awarded unknown to
high officials of the National Park
Service and the Public Works Ad-
miniStration.
Whether completion of the extern
sions and filing stacks fully answers
the suggestions made in some quarters
yesterday for a hall Of records for
storage purposes is not known. Off,
cials, however. were confident the
$780, 900 cubic feet of extra storage
space TO be made available eventually
in the Archives Building probably
would take care of most of the needs
in this respect.
Space Available Soon.
Within the next month 1t was an
bounced that approximately 100000
cubic feet of stack space in the new
Archives Building will be available for
historical records. There are several
Of these stacks, and officials said at
least one will be retained to start the
filing of records which are to go into
the new stacks when they are built.
The records cannot be moved into
the Archives Building now until a
survey is completed and the Advisory
Council on Archives decides which are
to be accommodated first This sur
vey, it was said, will disclose lot Of
duplicate copies of records which can
be eliminated.
John Russell Pope, architect, orig
inally planned the monumental Ar
chives Building SO that the installa-
ton Of the stacks in the inner court
could be accomplished with a min
imum OF expense and time. The
stacks were planned in looking ahead

Government. For this reason the

direct criticism to the delay and "red
tape" encountered in the division.
The explanation given at the Treasury
was simply that it took a long time
to draw plans and consult with archi-
tects. An official Of the Public Works
Administration merely said:
IF the construction of the new
Interior Building hadn't been turned
over to the Procurement Division, it
would have been nearly completed by
now" The foundations for the build
ing are yet TO be finished and it will
be considerably over a yea, perhaps,
before the Interior Department moves
into 1t.

the employees representation plan
against their wishes to join the out
side union affiliated with the Am
erican Federation of Labor. Other
employees testified that the So
called company union was accepted
voluntarily by the workers and act
ed in their interests.
Government counsel showed that
the Weirton plants had operated
for 20 years without any form of
union in its plants and contended
that when the formation of NRA
was obviously coming TO the front
in 1888, the employees representa-
tion plan was suddenly accepted by
company officials.
Objec ion of the government to
the employees representation plan
was centered chiefly against the
payment of S25 a month by the
company to each of the 40 workers
composing the executive committee.

the workers in favor of the manage

Judge Nields' ruling today was

each one of these men will have in
his possession blanks on which to
make out affidayits covering these
exemptions. In the towns. especial
ly, I hope 10 have the men in
charge at some headquarters, pro-
baby the city hall, sometime during

complaints, to file exemptions. and
also 10 stamp registration certifi-
Gates for automobiles. AS you know
the law provides that all taxes must

tuition, provides for exemption OF
every person who has served III the

Dreaded Disease
Claiming Life
OF Coast Woman,

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 81. U.P)-
Rola Brayton, attractive Hollywood
artist IS model, today joined the
dreaded legion of hopeless victims
who are gradually turning to stone.
Stricken nearly two years ago,
Miss Brayton revealed that the
dread disease is creeping upward
through her arms and legs until
now her neck and shoulders are
becoming oSsified.
There are 28 known victims of
the disease, calcinosis, in the world
and TO date medical science has
been unable to check its ravages.
81 have been given no encour-
agement," Miss Brayton said as she
told how, for two years, she was
watched helplessly while her feet,
her hands, her legs, arms and
shoulders have become hard as
rocks.
The strange malady is very pain
ful, the woman related, and, con-
trary to suppoSition, the parts of
her body which have been stricken
are more sensitive 10 toucn, Sucn as
a pin prick, than are those portions
which as yet have not been attack
ed.
Six months ago Miss Brayton
submitted to an operation in an at
tempt to restore circulation to the
parts of her body affected, but 1t
was only partial success. How
ever. the model does not despair.
I'm just waiting and hoping
that somewhere a cure will be
found in time to help me- she
said, 1--WE spent all my money
but medical treatment has done lit
tie good
She plans to try to interest the
Rockefeller institute in her illness,
she asserted, but added the expense
of treatments for such cases prob
ably would be a handicap.
The disease, according TO medi-
cal experts, consists of hardening
OF the muscles by deposits of cal
cium diverted into the tissues from
the blood stream.
