TB Chi to rvey Architect to Come With Dr. Plunketl Brown Reveals Dr. Robert Plunkett, head of the tuberculosis division of the state department of health, will visit the Onondaga sanatorium with an architect Monday and begin a survey which may determine whether the state will accept the institution, it was reported last night. Cover All Facilities Notification a Dr. PlunkeU and an architect will make the visit was received by Dr.

Bernard T. Brown, sanatorium superintendent, yesterday. It is expected the survey will cover all land and buildings owned by the county and used for sanatorium purposes. Ft was pointed out thnt April, .1048, is the earliest possible date at which the institution could be taken over by the state, as the state fiscal year runs from A i to April nnd acquisition of the sanatorium would necessitate inclusion of expense of operation in the budget. If decision by state a i i for acceptance is favorable, the county will be required to give deed to the i grounds and, when the property is no longer used by the state for hospital pur- 11 poses, if that time should occur, the! promises would revert to county.

The building committee reported, yesterday, that progress has slowed down greatly during the past several weeks because of failure of volunteer workers to carry on. When the project was begun more than a year the plan was worked out on the basis of volunteer labor for the actual construction work, Charles Wolfe, a skilled carpenter who resides across the street from the Hilliard home site and who has supervision over the construction, is the only work- 'man to receive any pay and he volunteers part of his time. In addition to supervising the volunteers, Wolfe puts in most of his time with hammer and saw when volunteers are on the job. The opening of the project was marked by volunteer enthusiasm. Excavations for the basement, and construction of the foundation walls and setting up of the framework moved at good pace, but the job required much time and early enthusiasm cooled until only few of the most persistent volunteers have been appearing over weekends.

Most of thes volunteers are older men who have full-time jobs, but who are giving portions of their Sunday's at home and other spare time to project, Members of the are concerned over the slow pace at i the work is progressing and are making a plea to persons who can Jend a hand and finish the job before the first i frost appears.

Postoffice department officials went to thft house appropriations committee this week in an effort to obtain funds for mail deliveries, to new housing developments. Veterans housing projejcls, some 1,700 in all, including ones in Syracuse and upstate New York, Long Island and New Jersey are among those new areas to which the post- office department can not give door service because of lack of funds, First Assistant Postmaster General Jesse Donaldson said. "We" have laid all the facts in the case before congress, and hope additional funds for this service will be madfi available in a supplemental appropriations bill," Donaldson Donaldson however held our litlle hope for restoration of fund? to provide for twice-daily deliveries for residential.areas that have been cut to a single daily delivery. "That's not too bad. People getting mail once a day ought not to holler." he said "But we do want to do all we can to.

1 1,746 APPLICATIONS The more than 1,746 applications on for extensions of carrier service to new housing areas, mostly for veterans, will 'cost almost 52,700,000, he said. Donaldson explained the filiation by saying that justification of amounts asked for the post office department we're required by the budget bureau in July, J946, for the present fiscal year's needs. At that time, he said, the estimates, were based on decreased revenues, with income falling off at 'a rate of about 6 per cent a month. Since the beginning of 1947. revenues have jumped at a rate of 'from 10 to 16 per cent a month, he said.
