here.
Describing himself as "thourghly
mad" about the recent developments
in Europe, Mr.. Cunningham added:
Il agree with what Acting Secre-
tary of State Sumner Welles said
in describing these acts (assuming
protectorate over what was formerly
Czecho-Slovakia0 as Wanton laWless-

Mr.. Cunningham said the pro-
posed Embassy building here would
cost something over $1,OOO,O0O." It
was to be situated at S street, Ban
croft place and Phelps place NV. on
land a part of which Germany has
owned since before the World War.
The original plans were drawn by
a German architect, Prof. E. A.
Breuhaus, in competition with other
German architects for design for
the elaborate structure. Mr.. Cum
ningham was employed to adapt
them to conditions here and super
wise the work.
Plans Nearly Completed.
Mr.. Cunningham said the plans
are nearly completed. They call for
a stone building in contemporary
German style. The embassy proper
would front on S street and the

was sent TO DR.. InOmSen AZ the
present German Embassy, 1889
Massachusetts avenue NV.
Request is made that you inform
the proper departments of your gov
ernment that it has become impos-
sible for me to continue in my pres
ent capacity as associated architect
for the proposed new German EN-
bassy building in Washington" the
architect wrote.
"Since last September your gov
ernment architects have consistently
avoided giving me necessary infor-
nation which was requested many
times; they have persistently avoid
ed answering questions on the work;
they have delayed sending necessary
data concerning various services re-
quired in the buildings, etc. In
short, they have piled embarrass-
ment upon embarrassment and have
displayed dilatory tactics which
have been exceedingly detrimental
to the efficient progress of the work
and very, very costly to me and to
my engineering collaborators.
To Hold Documents.
"The many documents which
have. concerning the embassy work,
are in safe keeping and will remain
so until such time as full payment
Of your governments obligation to
me is made. when they will be de-
nvered to your care.
please be assured that my per-
sonal friendship for you, for Baurat
Hoffman,, for Konsul Schulz-and
my high regard for you-is in no
way affected by this decision which
has been imposed upon me by the
actions Of your government over
the past few months"
Mr.. Cunningham is a native
Washingtonian. He was educated

Associate Architect
For New German
Embassy Quits
Unable to Serve Reich
Government Further,
Cunningham Says

Harry Francis Cunningham re-
signed today as associate architect
for the proposed new German En-
bassy building here.
In letter to DR.. Hans Thomson,
Charge dAffaires of the German
Embassy, Mr.. Cunningham said
since last September German gov
ernment architects have delayed
sending him necessary data for the
work.
He added:
I'm addition to this, the astound-
Ing events Of the past few days
events which have profoundly
shocked every believer in, and lover
of, honor and uprightness in per-
sonal and national dealings-are so
offensive to my solidly founded
: American ideals that it is impossible
for me to be Of any further service
to your government"
At the Embassy, DR.. Thomson said
he had mo comment whatsoever"
on Mr.. Cunningham's action. AS a
q private consideration, he pointed
out, Mr.. Cunningham had the right
to resign If he wished to do so.
In picturesque language, Mr..
Cunningham, in a later interview,
described his difficulties in trying to
carry on the work since "the
monkey business" last September.
= Contract Signed in July.
g He signed the contract last July,
but, Mr.. Cunningham explained, the
German government never sent it
back.
= "They don't pay much attention
to contracts any more" he re-
marked. 1T seems to me that in
view Of what they've done since the
Munich pact, they won't pay much
attention to one little architect"
p Moreover, he added, since they
started collecting "a lot of loose
embassies" around Europe, they ap-
parently have not had time to con-

liquids called halgogenated hydro
carbons, 1.30 to 3 times heavier than
water The specific gravity of the
liquid used is adjusted to that of
the desired mineral which is sep
parated from the ore by the process
of floating off the refuse. The min
erals, however. absorb about $40
worth of liquids per ton and is
lost.
The sink and float" process
employs the same heavy liquids but
with layer of water floating above
it. The ore is sprayed with starch
acetate or tannic elcid before it
enters the fluid. This spray i'm
unizes the minerals against the
liquids, prevents absorption and
reduces the loss of liquid from so
pounds, worth $40, to 10 ounces,
