committee. offering to build an
underground Office building ac-
commodating 1000 workers and
lease it to the Government.
The site is on the east side of
Connecticut avenue between Albe-
marie and Brandywine streets
NV. where there is a natural
ravine. Mr.. Kanfer said the area
is 100000 feet square and that
four stories could be built under
ground. 1t would be covered
either by three feet of earth and
sod. or an eight-story apartment
house could be erected above the
underground Office building.
Mr.. Kanfer said the Civilian
Defense Organization advised that
a building above would provide
even more protection for the un-
derground structure than earth
and sod.
He said the project has been
taken up with the General Serv-
ices Administration.

Text of Communique Issued by Trumon
and Pleyen. Poee At
Evening star., 1951-01-31

when the subcommittee concluded
hearings yesterday afternoon, that
the members will have to have
time to study the transcript.
AS the hearing drew to a close,
wv. E. Reynolds, public buildings
commissioner, recommended that
the appropriation authorization in
the dispersal bill before the COM
mittee be reduced from $3.50 mil
lion to $l45 million.
Six Permanent Buildings.
Heretofore. the program has
called for eight permanent build
ings on as many sites within a
20-mile radius of downtown
Washington, each to provide office
space for 5000 persons.
Under this latest administra-
ton program, there would be per-
manent buildings on six sites, plus
two additional "semifinished"
buildings. Additional semifinished
buildings would be erected if the
emergency deepened and the
mobilization expanded.
Under such circumstances, a
seventh site might be acquired
and outlying land now owned by
the Government could be used for
an eighth.
The program basically has been
to maintain the Government en-
ployment figure in the immediate
Washington area at 10000 with
10000 others being transferred to
permanent dispersed buildings.
This, however. was based on the
|decentralization-moving to other
cities outside this area-of agen-
|cies with 5000 employees.
Agencies With $4,000.
The Budget Bureau reported,
however, that the decentralization
program will affect agencies with
a total of $4,000 employees. Mr..
Reynolds divided this figure into
$4,000 normally employed and g.
900 additional employees because of
present conditions. Therefore,
there would be $4,000 fewer
normally employed persons to be
taken care of in this area.
Under Mr.. Reynolds proposal,
the current bill would authorize
$145 million for permanent build
ings and sites and such sums as

may be necessary" for the semi
finished structures.
The two programs compare as
follows:
Buildings and sites $142, 800 900

Highways 41,000.O0O 32,500,06G
Telephone and
munications 100000 5.4oo. 900
Totals - s19o,o00,0O0 S145, 600, 900
Mr.. Reynolds said the semi
finished structures would have
concrete frames and walls sim
liar to the finished permanent
buildings and later could be CON-
pleted in the same fashion if nee
essary. Otherwise, if normal times
returned, they could be used for
storing files and records.
5 Months to Build.
There would be little finish on
the outside, he said, and none on
the inside, where pipes would be
exposed. although concrete walls
would be painted. Mr.. Reynolds
said contractors have estimated
they could have such buildings
ready for occupancy in five
months.
Senator Holland went into the
question of the amount allotted
for highways. It was brought out
that Thomas H. Macdonald, pub
lie roads commissioner, had esti-
mated $64 million would be needed
for highways for eight sites and
that he had cut this to $55.5
million for six sites.
Fred E. Schnepfe of the Public
Roads Bureau was asked by Sena-
tor Holland to furnish the sub
committee an estimate of the cost
of street work within the District
needed for the dispersal program.

commitments beyond what Con-
gresS has already authorized.

Cut away the working surface OF
the potato as it becomes dry and
soiled. 1t would probably be wise
to test an inconspicuous corner
Of the picture first. as pigmenta-
ton varies in oils. I tried this
successfully on a painting Of sand

the treatment the colors were re-
stored to loveliness I'd forgotten
they had. Good luck to you.
