GALLAUDET FUNDS
URGED BY |CKES
$4,000 for Institute Asked
for ConStruction-laSt
Grant Made in 1918.

Secretary of the Interior 1ckes to-
day filed an application for $210,000
of work relief funds to provide neces-
sary new construction of the Columbia
Institution for the Deaf, which has
received no building appropriations
for II years. Since 1918, when Con-
gress provided the last funds for build
ing, the student body has increased
~ per cent.
In a statement accompanying the
application Secretary Ickes explained
the desired building program of the
institution.
Removal of the printing Office from
its basement quarters, larger facilities
for the library in new building and
provisions for additional laboratory
space and recitation rooms are out
standing needs of the institution" he
said. THE proposed building will
house the library, laboratories in
physics and biology and the printing
equipment and will contain enough
recitation rooms, so that those in the
college mems domitory may be done
away with and additional bed rooms
provided for future expansion. The
new building will free enough space
in the mems domitory to provide for
an increase of 20 young men"
The power plant of the institution
which provides heat as well as light
was erected 81 years ago and is now
much out Of date and inadequate.
Secretary Ickes had approved the
sum requested in the regular budget
for the fiscal year ending June 80, 1886
but the Budget Bureau killed it because
of the expected appropriation of public
works funds in separate bill by
Congress.

at least 100000 of the desired alloca-
ton could be made Immediately avail
able.
The administration was scolded by
the conference for IAN error of far

Cents a Quart Rate in
81 Capital Stores.

Ten-cent milk, with a Scent return
deposit on each bottle, was on sale in
81 stores of the High Ice Cream Co.

passed on to the customer.
While the plant of the Highland
Dairy has not yet been scored by the
District Health Department, Stephens
expressed confidence that it would be
given q high rating, since all equip
ment Is new.

Association. This price, however, will
be higher than the 2612 cents, be-
cause no surplus will be returned by

milk are returned to the producers, he
said, causing loss to them.

present he is putting out only about
400 gallons daily.
Along with the lower priced milk,
the Highland plant is putting double

stores at Is cents half pint, about
is cents cheaper than the price now
