HARRINGTON


According to a recent announce
: ment Harrington is in line for neJ
> Federal Post Office Building. Own
, ers of suitable property are re
quested by the Treasury Department
Procurement Division, Public Work
Branch, Washington, D. c., to sub
NIT their properties that will NEE
. the needs of the department as clos
, as possible. The approximate di
) mensions are noted as follows; cor
ner lots 120 foot frontage, with {
depth of 40 feet. Interior lots 14E
feet frontage with 10 feet depth
The proposals will be publicly open
ed at the local post Office at 900
o'clock next Monday. Proposal
blanks can be secured from the Post
master. For sometime it was felt
that this city was entitled to Fed
eral Building. It is understood that
the present quarters which have
been leased for several years are
somewhat cramped. Should. the
property owners in town become in
terested there are a number of ideal
locations for a Federal Building.
The sites would first have to be
cleared of delapidated frame stores
that are both an eye sore and fire
hazard to any growing community.
/ An ideal site for a Federal Building
woud be the Klump Block, but its
is reported that the present owner
has a life time interest and it can
not be sold.
