The Senate adopted a House‐passed bill early in May authorizing construction of a $1,575,000 geomagnetic station to replace a Commerce Department station at Cheltenham, Maryland which has been described as obsolete. The new station will be built on the A. P. Hill Military Reservation near Fredericksburg, Virginia, and will be operated by the Coast and Geodetic Survey.
