14 Petitions Ask Present Site $475,000 Cost Breaks Ne goliations to Buy New Location (Continued From Page 1) for the Third and North streets site. At the same time he declared that "the art commission would not approve the Market street site even if at an enormous additional expense the jail site should be added." The art commission chairman) also released copies of a letter written to President Judge Wil liam M. Hargest, December 21 last giving the commission's opinon of the various sites mentioned. The commission found the pres ent courthouse and jail plots 'wholly unsuitable;" found the presence of First Church of uod the only objection to Fourth and Walnut streets as a site; termed the southeast corner of Market Sauare and Chestnut streets "im practicable;" advanced Third and North streets as "the best site pro Dosed;" and Front and Market streets as second thoice. A hasty survey disclosed that the keep the present site petitions were finding eager signers not only throughout the city but in vir tually every town in the county.

The move provided Dauphin county residents with their first opportunity to record an opinion on the site question. When a $1, 700,000 loan for a new building won approval at the November 7 election, there was no mention of location on the ballot. Independent estimates from a number of county officials and business leaders are that 90 per cent, of the entire population of the county favors the present lo cation. The county commissioners, who conferred last night with owners of the quarter block at the south east corner of Front and Market, said it was apparent the county would have to pay at least $475,000 for the plot and declared that "is far beyond what the commissioners think they should pay." "This may mean that we will go to another site," said President Frank A. Slack, "or it may mean condemnation proceedings." Asked if the development may not mean fresh consideration of the present site, Slack replied: "Mr.

Nelley (Thomas J. Nelley, second Republican member of the board) and I have always been in favor of the present site that is, either the courthouse plot or jail plot or both but the judges and members of the State Art Commission have said flatly that they will not approve it. Compromise "Tn a nci MrA 4Vnt Li LUJi. AAlYC Uiab jruu compromise or you would still be talking about a new courthouse ten years from now." Slack explained that J. Douglas M.

Royal, who retired Janu ary 1 as minority member of the board, had not approved of the present site. However, his succes sor, James H. Lane, is openly and enthusiastically advocating the present location in the belief that it is the desire of an overwhelm mg majority of the residents of the county. Alter a half hour conference with the eight owners of the thirteen properties in the Front and Market streets tract, first as a group, then individually, Slack explained that four owners had submitted "the lowest prices they 1 1 i will consider." "Based on these prices," Slack added, "the total would be far beyond what the commissioners think they should oav." The board president pointed out mat tnree of the owners are estates. The estates, he said, "hesitated to quote prices without knowing what was being asked for the other properties because they feared that if they were too much 'out of line' the estates would be subject to criticism by the court.

He explained that a similar situation existed in relation to the Dauphin County Historical Society, another owner.

The first consideration is the best interests of the city and county from an economic and business standpoint. A courthouse must be built, not for the immedi ate future, but to accommodate the court and county business for many years to come, and it should be a courthouse that will serve that purpose and, at the same time, be a credit to the county and to Harrisburg, the Capital city of the Commonwealth.

At the outstart there were number of differences of opinion, which, under very thorough dis cussion of all the factors involved, were subordinated to what ap pears to be the best public good At the last conference on Janu, ary 2, after careful consideration of the figures of cost and values obtained by the county commis sioners, the Front and Market street site was then practically agreed upon by all groups, but not formally selected. Reasons For Selecting Front and Market Street Site A number of sites were pro posed. By a process of elimina tion three were left for very seri ous consideration. First: the northwest corner of Third and North extending to Briggs and to Green street. This site is as sessed for $210,900.

It involves acquiring 47 properties. It con tains 75,900 square feet as against 44,100 square feet in each of the other two sites. In view of the proposed extension of the Cap itol Park from North to Forster and from Third to the railroad, it has many advantages from an artistic and aesthetic standpoint, However, it is at the present, and perhaps will remain for years to come, away from the business center, which probably will al ways be Market street. Doctor Cret, in his analysis, opposed this site and recommended that the new site ought to be easily access ible to. the north and south and east and west business areas.

This left for consideration Fourth and Walnut and Front and Market. Doctor Cret mistakenly eliminated Front and Market because "the cost of this block appears too high in comparison with other available sites." The estimates which the County Commissioners caused to be made by competent real estate men of the properties at Fourth and Wal nut, compared with one sale made and tentative options, which have been suggested to them and to other persons of properties at Front and Market, indicate that the properties at Front and Mar ket can be acquired for perhaps $150,000 less than those at Fourth and Walnut. Moreover, there are 22 properties at Fourth and Walnut, and with a correspondingly larger number of tenants, which must be considered, as against only 13 properties owned by 8 property owners at Front and Market. Futhermore, Doctor Cret, in recommending Fourth and Walnut, did not consider the fact that the church property in that site cannot be condemned but must be purchased. Reasons For Eliminating the Present Site Naturally, the first consideration was the question of building the courthouse upon the present site, the jail site, or on both.

The following considerations led to the abandonment of this idea. First: There is no building in this city which could be adapted so that we could have at least four court rooms, with offices for the Judges and all the other county officials required to transact the court and county business. And if such a building could be found which might be, by extensive alterations, adapted in part, the alterations and rental covering a period of the building of a new courthouse would probably amount to $150,000, which would be wasted money. Second: It would be absolutely out of the question to attempt to hold courts, to perform official duties or transact business while building a courthouse in piecemeal on the present site, to say nothing of the added cost of such construction and the incidental damage to, and proper preserva tion of, our valuable books and records. In any event, that would require partial removal and an other place which must be rented and altered.

Third: If a courthouse were built, the interests of the city re quire the widening of Court avenue to accommodate the traffic conges tion which would considerably narrow the available site. Fourth: It would save the county money to move the courthouse, be cause (a) the present site can be sold for as much as, and perhaps more, than will be required to secure twice the amount of ground for a proper courthouse site (b) It will increase taxes for both city and county. Whoever buys the present site and the jail site will have such an investment that it will necessarily follow that fine business properties will be erected, and therefore much larger tax return will come to the "ity and county than the taxes received from any other site which is acquired. To illustrate: by taking the taxes away from the Front and Market street site we are depriving the city of taxes on $219,100 valuation and the county of taxes on valuation, but, assuming that the present site will be sold for not less than $450,000, as it certainly can be, and a building to cost approximately $150,000 were erected, a very much greater tax return would come to the city and county, (c) To build a tall building of the office type, with court rooms on the upper floors (as HEADS SOCIETY C. V.

ERDLY When Paul E. Fetterolf retired as chairman of Mifflin County Tuberculosis Society, Erdly, 1 tendent of Lewistown schools, was elected to fill the vacancy. modate the thousands of people would entail a much greater con stant expense for operation and maintenance for the efficient up keep of a larger number of more expensive elevators than a build ing of three stories, (d) It will make available a fine central busi ness site of which there scarcity. is a Fifth: To build an elongated courthouse on both the present site and the jail site would be us ing ground worth perhaps $700, 000, when the site could be ac quired for a little more than half that amount. This would be reckless waste.

Sixth: The courthouse should be a credit architecturally to the Capital City and County, and not merely a congested office building with court rooms in it. NOTE: In coming to this con elusion we are in accord with the best possible expert advice. Doctor Warren P. Laird, professor of architecture, University of Penn sylvania, now a member of the State Art Commission, about eighteen years ago made an independent survey in which he strongly opposed the erection of the courthouse on the present site. Doctor Paul P.

Cret, an internationally known architect, a year or more ago made a survey of the available sites, and strong ly opposed the erection of the courthouse or jail property. The Pennsylvania Art Commission, which must approve the site, also opposes the selection of the pres ent courthouse site or jail site. Another consideration is, that for the best interests of the city, the site at Fourth and Walnut were acquired, Aberdeen avenue should be widened perhaps 20 feet, which would make the front the property along Walnut street 190 feet, running through to Strawberry street, instead of 210 feet; whereas, if there is any ne cessity to accommodrt" traffic conditions for street widening at Front and Market, such widening could be made on the park side of Front street, thus leaving the site intact, and also thereby largely eliminating the curve below Chestnut street. The foregoing are compelling reasons for the selection of the Front and Market street site. We think that, if purchases can not be made at prices which the County Commissioners think are fair condemnation proceedings should be promptly started.

Such proceedings will not delay the building of the courthouse, and, with only eight property owners to deal with, as against twenty two at Fourth and Walnut and forty seven at Third and North, with the correspondingly larger number of tenants, the Front and Market street site presents very much less of a problem from that angle.

State Doctors Blast Worry Agree With Nobel Prize Winner That It Doesn't Pay Pittsburgh, Jan.

9. "Don't worry a Dit nor lose any sleep over situations which with your best efforts you cannot change," declares Prof. Robert A. Millikan, American scientist, in a recent letter to the Medical Society of the State of Pennsylvania, "but worry hard and work to the limit over situations which it is within your power to improve, such as your own personal habits or the political corruption in your own ward. Millikan, Nobel Prize winner, chairman of the executive council of the California Institute of Tech nology, and author of many books on science, expresses the views of the 9000 members of the Medical Society of the State of "As a chain is only as strong as its weakest link, so is man only as strong as his weakest habit," says a bulletin of the Medical So ciety.

"A man may live a perfectly well ordered life otherwise and yet be a victim of some over indulgence that will ultimately strike him down. All of the good he does by upright living in other things, he spoils by this one pernicious habit. "That Professor Millikan has practiced his precepts is evidenced from the fact that, though Ihe will be 72 March 22, he has abundant energy."

Most of the party bigwigs agreed with Mr. Roosevelt's own comment, however, that he was a "self made riddle" and predicted that the riddle would go unsolved for weeks or months. Even though the President, failed to allude to the third term issue, Secretary Wallace speak ing in Des Moines, said flatly that he hoped the "nominee in 1940 would be President Roose velt." and at Cleveland Robert H. Jackson, newly appointed Attorney General, came virtually as close to advocating a third term. National Chairman James A.

Farley, who introduced Mr. Roosevelt, came closest to announcing his own Presidential candidacy when his bald head gleaming a tomato red under the klieg lights, he said with a broad smile: "Fellow candidates, ladies and gentlemen." Homer Cummings, former At torney General and chairman of the dinner, noted that he was surrounded "by presidential possibilities and presidential improbabilities," and introduced Vice President Garner as "a salty personality." Garner, who is an announced candidate for President, was next to Mr. Roosevelt, and pulled his famous stunt of mussing the President's hair as he sat down amid applause after acknowledging the introduction.
