Mr. Moss worked out of offices provided him by Senator James E. Murray, Montana. While in Washington, Mr. Moss interviewed prospective staff members, met with Senate leaders and attended to other details. Before leaving for Washington the senator-elec- t said the family had decided that Mrs. Moss and their four children would remain in Salt Lake City until school is over in the spring. The family will then move to the capital. Utah's Democratic Senator-elec- t was hailed as a conquering hero when he attended party and other meetings in Washington. Mr. Moss and Philip Cowley, his Salt Lake City law partner and manager of his Senate cam-paign, were in Washington this week to meet with party leaders and attend to details in connec-tion with his moving to the capi-to- l next month. At Monday's National Press Club luncheon, he was asked to sit at the speaker's table with other honored guests. The ses-sion was addressed by former President Harry S. Truman. Senator-elec- t Moss held his first press conference Tuesday at 11 a.m. in the office of Felton President McKay to Dedicate New Hawaiian College Salt Lake City has supervised the project.

Circling the drive are parking areas, ath-letic fields, gymnasiums and out dor swimming pool, four tennis courts, men's and women's dor-mitories, housekeeping apart-ments and technology building. Architects Harold W. Burton and Douglas W. Burton have in-tegrated a large auditorium and stage, offices, classroooms and laboratories into the central unit which has 64,000 square feet of space in its 122 rooms. The central unit and dormi-tories are two stories high, with central open patios. Dormitories can accommodate 350 students. More than 300 students have been enrolled in classwork, con-ducted in temporary buildings since construction began in 1955. Present facilities can accommo-date 1,000 students with provi-sion for future expansion. Most labor for the project was provided by skilled supervisors and laborers from western Amer-ica and Hawaii who have devot-- - ed their full time work to the .project. Members of the church in the islands contribute to the susten-ance of the "labor missionaries." A total of 530,038 hours of work with an estimated cash value of $944,360 has been contributed to the school. Wendell B. Mendenhall of Stewart-- Proposes Establishment of Comptroller Job Mayor Adiel F. Stewart this week proposed that an office of comptroller be set up within the finance and public affairs de-partment. Most commissioners were cautious about comment-ing on the proposal. However, City Auditor Louis E. Holley tabbed the mayor's proposal as "just a move to cre-ate another job." The commission, nevertheless, instructed the city attorney to prepare an ordinance along lines suggested by the mayor, creating the office. Mr. Holley claimed that "every thing the mayor has set forth we already have." He said that pres-ent state statutes generally di-rect the duties of the mayor's statement sets forth regarding a comptroller to the city auditor. He said that appointment of a comptroller would be in con-flict with "the statutory require-ments of this office." The mayor, in his statement to the commission, said, "I recom- - mend that Salt Lake City, through its board of commission-ers, equip itself with the tools of good management and create the office of city comptroller within the department of finance and public affairs."
