Army Surrenders
Building Space 10
State Department
Secretary Of War and
Aides Will Move
After New Year

The War Department has struck
its colors and sounded retreat in a
battle with diplomats for office
space in the old State, War and
Navy Building.
Built for all three departments,
the historic structure across from
the White House executive Offices, at
Pennsylvania avenue and Seven
teenth streets NV, now is big
enough only for the State Depart
ment.
Secretary Of War Woodring an
nounced yesterday that the Army
would abandon the field and transfer
all its activities now housed In the
old building alongside the diplomats
to the Munitions Building, at Con-
stitution avenue and Nineteenth
street NV, about January /.
The transfer will encourage closer
cooperation between the Army and
Navy, since the latter already is
housed in the Munitions Building
1t is temporary measure. how
ever. The Navy is cramped in the
Munitions Building, erected in war
time as temporary structure. Con-
gress has authorized funds to con-
struct new War Department Build
ing, but several years will be re-
quired for its completion. Ground
has not been broken for 1t yet.
The temporary transfer will cul-
inmate a move begun during the
World War, which has resulted In
War Department activities being
scattered through 10 different build
ings here.
Sudden expansion of State, War
and Navy Department activities dur
ing the World War made the old
three-department building made
quate for their needs and the diplo-
mats began taking over more and
more space. Completed in 1888 after
II years of construction work, 1t then
was reputed to be the finest and
largest office building in the world,
but now is dwarfed by many of the
departmental buildings constructed
since the World War.

Mr.. Lusk, perhaps, was the strong
proponent Of sales tax.
There is no question that sales
tax will raise money" he declared.
And I don't believe there will be
strenuous objection to it after 1t Is
introduced"
Fairfax Oyster Of the Federation
of Business Mems Association, Inc,
joined Mr.. Lusk in supporting the
sales tax. He suggested a per cent
levy that would exempt both food
stuffs and medicines, but insisted the
tax should be collected on Federal
property. He had particular refer
ence to foods sold in Government
cafeterias.
One of the strongest opponents Of
the sales tax was William P. Robin
son Of the Non-Partisan Lobby for
Economic and Democratic Rights.
His contention was that the princi-
pal effect of such a tax would be
further to reduce the standard Of
living of those least able to pay
the unskilled workman and those
who are now barely eking out an
existence.
Mr.. Lusk as we'll as Mr.. Robinson
ridiculed the proposal for a so-called
non-salary, non-wage personal net
income-retail sales tax as embodied
in the new tax program the Advisory
Committee released for public con-
sideration.
What is this strange, economic
creature?" Mr.. Robinson asked.
Mr.. Lusk described it as a janus,
or a "two-headed thing Jig"
