Eshleman 16th District—Pennsylvania As you read this column, my staff and I will be set- tling into new quarters in Washington. We are moving from the Longworth House Office Building to Room 416 of the Cannon House Office Building. If you could compare the two offices — the old and the new — you would know why the change of locations is a desirable one. First, there is the matter of con- venience. We now will have three connected rooms as opposed to our previous two. Second, there is no doubt but what the Cannon Build- ing offices are a little nicer since they were all renovat- ed and updated just a coupie of years ago. As with so many things in the Congress, gelting a new address is dependent on sen- jority. In other words, one’s choice of an office is based upon his years of service in the Congress. The longer vou're in the House, the bet- ter your chances of getting the kind oi workspace you desire. In cases where the years of = service are the same, a drawing takes piace among the various Congress- men wanting the same ioca- tion to determine who will have the first pick. I have been attempting to get across the street on Capitol Hill and into the Cannon Building since the end of the last Congress. The initial round of office selection took place in early December as all Congress- men lined up their chambers for the 91st Congress. Tlie staff and 1 participated in that most frustrating proce- dure. We failed to get our first. several choices so we stayed put in the Longworth Building. Since that initial round, we have had more opportu- nities to get on lists for oth- er offices. As represeniatives resign or die, their office spaces open for selection by other members. Finally, our fortunes changed, and we were able to get a nice suite en the 4th floor of the Can- non Building. For the staff and myself, this move will mean that we will have to do some re- adjusting, but it also means some changes for my 15th District constituents. If you want to contact me, the address will now be 416 Cannon House Office Building. Washington, D. CC. 20515. My Washin®ton phone number, Area 202-225-2411, will remain the same. If you want to visit me when you are in Washington, and I en- courage you to do so, you will now find me on the groomd floor of the Cannon Just one final point. Dur- ine the next few days, the shift of locations will have our Congrehsional opera- tions 4 little up in the air. moving, letters in the turmoil of my replies to your and other communications may be somewhat slower than normal. Please bear with us for this short period, because I sincerely believe that the new office will greatly enhance our ability to give better service once things get settled down. e Deaths - MARGARET DELLINGER - Mrs. Margaret (3.
