GRIGSBY BUSY
OVER BUILDING
FOR CORDOVA
The local Chamber of Commerce is
exerting every effort to have the gov
ernment begin the erection of a pub
lic building at Cordova, for which an
appropriation of $100,000 was made
some time ago, and upon which work
has been delayed on account of the
war. The lots have been surveyed
and the plans for the building adopted,
but on account of increased wages
and cost of material it is now thought
that the original appropriation is not
sufficient to complete the structure,
as originally planned. In order to
overcome this obstacle a bill has been
introduced in congress for an addi
tional $100,000, and Delegate George
B. Grigsby, to whom the chamber has
applied for assistance, gives the as
surance that this needed money will
be forthcoming in the next omnibus
bill. That our delegate is working for
the appropriation and is keeping in
close touch with developments is best
explained in the following wire just
received by the Chamber of Com
merce :
“Have spent the past week trying
to get action on Cordova public build
ing. Supervising architect of the
treasury department unwilling to at
tempt construction on $100,000 appro
priated. This not only on account
of excavation expense but general in
creased cost of materials. The last
omnibus public building bill carried
an additional $100,000. The chairman
of the committee assures me the next
omnibus will will carry this additional
$100,000 and will pass. The architect
is unwilling to build postoffices where
people have to climb steps. Have in
troduced a separate bill for additional
cost, which will pass, and an elegant
building will result, as I have gone
over the plans.”
