CAPITOL UNDERGOES REPAIRS
DURING RECESS OF CONGRESS

 

 

fore with this work as his competent
office force. who had been constant-
by associated with him for a number
of years. were equipped to carry it
out. The painting or the Capitol was
started before Congress adjourned
last spring. The big white dome.
necessitating the use of hundreds of
gallons of white paint. was the first
of the repair work to be started.
The part oi: the Capitol building .up-
on which the dome rm is: of
old ssnd~stone structure. and needs
painting every few years. When the
dome was completed the, painters
turned their attention to the build-
ing underneath it. The Senate and
House wings of the Capitol are of
marble and do not need painting.

Most of the Committee Rooms of
the Capitol were renovated. and all
of the decorative work. in which
the rooms 0: the Capitol abound.

was also trashed up. For some time
the corridors of the Capitol on the
Senate side. which were originally
in handsome oil paintings- by iam-
ous artist Brumldi. have been under-
going a retouching by the artist “'hi-
pie. and the progress made will
shortly give the Senate wing or
the Capitol an appearance or com-
plete restoration. The frize in the
dome. started by Brumidi. represent-
ing American history in chron olo-
glcal order. was under way at the

to whom it would hits-net the work.

Davide Lynn, who had been un-
der Mr. Woods for about twenty-
nve years. was appointed by Pred-
dent Coolidge as the Architect oi
the Capitol. The work of making
the Capitol thoroughly fireproof is
being carried on by Mr. Lynn- The
root of the old or central part of
the Capitol building. the rafters of

which are made of wood. has been
torn out and steel rafters and lire-
proot material have been put in its
place wherever possible. One hun-
dred and twenty tire plugs have been
placed in the main corridors of the
Capitol. Owing to the many valuable
papers that are stored in the build-
ing. this precaution is nece-ary
During the war period several small
tires alarmed the Capitol officials.
and the architect took steps toward
making the Capitol as nearly fire-
proof as pomme and the fire equip-
ment as efficient as the building
would permit.

0n the House side twenty thou-
sand dollars worth oi marble was
placed on the floor of the basement
to replace marble which had been
in use for half a century or more.
To enhance the beauty or the dome.
Architect Lynn has installed 160
powerful spotlights.

A short time ago the Hall of the
House was renovated. new sky-light
ing placed in it. and its walls were
repainted. When Congress opens in
December. the Senate Chamber will
be equally as well lighted for the

and will entertain persons or the
