Washington Architecture Club Backs Off Plan to Seek Federal Drawings
The Washington Architectural Club debated a Treasury plan to procure general federal building designs by competition but took no action. Members pressed against the policy while noting vacancies caused by draftsmen leaving Treasury. J M Leisenring was elected president for the ensuing year with D J BE Six as vice president and other officers named. Fr L Watmough declined candidacy due to other duties. The retiring president O L Harding reviewed a year of strong prosperity and social activity. Young artist Wi Schaefer won the catalogue cover competition for the annual exhibition.
