16,100 Is Too High
When the estimate on the size
of the proposed building was
submitted at the Senate hearing,
2.3 million square feet gross, one
of the opponents got busy with
his pencil. II. he figured, the
net Office space would be 10 per
cent Of the gross "a low figure)
1t would total 100000. II the
Bureau Of the Budget recommen-
dalton Of one employe to 100
square feet Of Office space were
followed. the total employees
would be 16.100. Mr.. Dulles said
this was an exaggeration.
At any rate it is gong to be
a tremendous building - far
larger than the Department Of
Commerce, for instance. 1t would
be the second largest among the
Government buildings. The larg-
est is the mammoth Pentagon
with 6,545. 900 gross square feet.
Next would come the new CHA
building with its 2.3 million
square feet.
Whether 1t will be one or
several buildings is still tenta-
tive but economy and security
favor a single building and it
will be a whopper.

informed, is now located in 81
buildings, 20 Of them temporary

One OF the features OF the
Gray Commission proposal is
that II such groups as the Ma

vancement of Colored People
bring suit in other counties to
force integration. the local gov

would provide financial assist
