You have reference, of course, to accidents to the public in egress and ingress? Mr. CARLOCK. Yes. We have had several claims. I do not believe we have ever approved one. We have had several claims that we have disapproved. We had one just recently where a little girl fell off of a stairs in a lighthouse. She was just a visitor there, and her mother claimed there should have been more of a railing. But we decided that there was no negligence, that all due precautions were taken, and that she did not have a good claim, so we did not settle that one. OBLIGATIONS Mr. GARY. Mr. Johnson, I wonder if you could furnish us with a table showing the obligations to December 31, 1949, on all of the appropriations for 1950. Mr. JOHNSON. Yes, sir.
