Mr. Emery’s address in full was as lofloAvl latt cumulative appeal is volli u) from organized Washington to fl‘:‘peug ple of this country in behalf of a just national representation for the District of Columbia. That proposal, backed nof. only by the great responsible or~ genizations of citizens, of trade and of rommerce of Washington, but also by national institutions like the American Federation of Labor, is embodied in two resolu pending in Congress.

Patriotism gushed forth and a great Government was brought into being. ‘That slogan, that declaration, is a Tundamental doctrine in this country today. It is an unas- sallable American philosophy that gov- ernments derive their just powers from the eonsent, of the governed.

Georgetown. then a thriving Maryland fown, 15 today a part of the city of Washington. Officers and men from Georgetown were in the first battalion from the South to reach Gen. George ‘Washington in his trying campaign Boston. Other Georgetown officers and men took part in the defense of Fort Washington and in other engegements in New York. Others from the District sallied forth 1o the Revolutionary fields. So likewise, Washingtonians have been among the first to furnish their full quota in every great national emergency since those early days. ‘Washingtonians all through these decades have upheld the h!lhtl'» ideals ! the Republic. They have always met the tests of American citizenship. They have helped to make Washington the greatest of all capitals on earth. Their patriotism, their achievements, their fulfillment of constructive responsi- bilities, match in flawless luster the record of the people of any of the 48 States. They have responded more than 100 per cent in every national emer- geney since Government was established here in 1800. They have gone over the top in men and money in war time, Many of them have been immolated on the altar of asacrifice on ‘fame's eternal eamping und’ at home and across the seas.

This an would cut through the ullding on the east side of 1fth street, into the courtyard, and out eon Tenth street to the east. This would, of course, be a different kind of ve- hicular trafic way than is at present provided. The ecircle at the intersection of Twelfth and C streets would be large, as can be seen by its indicated dimen- slons in the small segment apparent on the Internal Revenue Bullding. ‘These semi-circular facades will carry columns, giving a beautiful architec- tural effect to the circle.
