Some of the states, it is understood, will ‘issue: bonds while others will so- licit funds by popular subscriptions. Tennessee has authorized a one hun- dred thousand doar bond is has appointed a state committee to undertake the ri of its fund, while Maine, Delaware and w York and the District of Columbia already have guaranteed hearty cooperation. In President Harding's recent en- dorsement of the erection of the building, he explained that it was to be a practical memorial commemor- ating not only the servi of all ‘Americans in the World War, but perpetuating the methory of George Washington, and carrying out the edu- cational features suggested in his will. The President’s solicitation of state cooperation in the erection of this: national monument, has lent a nation- wide interest to a project begun many years agq by the George Washington Memorial Association.

For the endowment of the Memorial, from ten to fifteen million dollars is desired, making a total of twenty or twenty-five million dollars. But more than this amount will be available if the present subscripticn plan proves successful. The scheme ‘for financing the un- derteking is believed to be unique, each state being asked to endow a ser- vice star for every son and daughter who served during World War. The rates to be assessed are: A minimum of five dollars for each blue service star and a minimum of one hundred dollars for each gold star of sacrifice.

Nobody wants ‘to sing it. ‘It is never heard in the streets of Mos- or in the towns of the provinces. .When it is played by order in public gatherings, the crowds and audiences refuse to join in the singing. This was illustrated at the Grand to the foresight which first en- couraged and endowed the _ insti-a- tion here established—an institution which is to be alike a monument to those who sacrificed in a noble cause and a ‘beacon to shed afar the light of useful knowledge and grateful under- standing among men.” The purpose of the Memorial was also announced as a gathering place for Americans, where American minds could) meet in fruitful exchange: Thus, as the President suggested, this institution of the National Capitol may become, through its varied uses, a veritable “university of American citizenship.” It will fill a long-felt want, for, unhappily, though the city of Washington has become an inter- national meeting place, it is not yet equipped with suitable assembly rooms, When completed, the building will house the headquarters of national, military and patriotic organizations, rooms will be set apart for the exclusive use of the states and territories. Organizations may, upon request and without charge, use the auditorium and assembly rooms for their meetings and. conventions.

The Memorial is to be of four stories in heighi, surmounted by a low dome which crowns a huge gentral auditor. ium. The main featyre of the edifice will be this national ‘auditorium of spaci- ous dimeasions, giving the Nation’s Capital a public meeting place of size ample to’ seat ten thousand peo- ple. The ground floor of the hall is in the form of a great elipsé, its hong axis running north and south, Here, there will be seats for six thousand’ people, while above, an encircling balcony will accommodate several thousand more.

While only two members of the board are asked to resign, it is ex- pected that a defense of the acts of the administration board as a whole will be made. Robert Muir is the third member of the board appointed ‘by Governor Frazier. Two,ex-officio members .of the board, Miss .Nielson and J. A. Kitchen, bring the member- ship to five. What Leaguers Claim, The Nonpartisans claim that the no- tice of the ouster proceedings is mere- ly an attempt by the present adminis- tration to get control of the board, which controls tlfe state penal, char- itable and educational institutions, while the Governor has maintained that he had not and did not begin any proceedings without ample grounds fer so doing. The method of removal is that first the members against whom it is di- rected must be served with formal no- tice, setting forth the charges against them.
