'B-12 MEVORIL STE FIED BY OFFIALS Second Division Monument to Be Placed Near White House. Pederal Government officials yes- terday definitely decided to place the 2d Division Memorial on Constitution avenue, half-way between Sixteenth and Seventeenth streets, 145 feet north of the curb line, near the back of the White House. This decision was reached after an inspection of the area by James Earle Fraser, prominent New York sculptor, who is working on the design for the memorial; C. Marshall Finnan, super- intendent of the National Capital Farks; H. P. Caemmerer, executive | secretary of the Fine Arts Commis- | sion, and Malcolm Kirkpatrick of the | branch of plans and design of the| National Park Service of the Interior | Department. To Begin Work Soon. Sponsors of the 2d Division Me- morial, which include some of the out- | standing World War heroes of the most famous battles, want to start| construction of the foundation with- out delay. It is expected the monu- ment will be unveiled next year, when the organization convenes here. Pres- ident Roosevelt will be invited to de- liver an address inasmuch as he wit- nessed on the Western front some of the activities of the 2d Division, in- cluding the United States Marines, when he was Assistant Secretary of | the Navy. | John Russell Pope, prominent New | York architect, who designed the Archives Building and other structures | here, is the architect for the me- morial | Sword Central Feature. ! The side panels of the monument | will contain the names of the World War battles in which the 2d Division participated. The central feature will be a flaming sword, held in & hand, and this will be of bronze. The pedestal will be of granite. Finnan explained that the sponsors of the memorial hoped to have the foundation set before frost arrives. He promised that his office will co-operate with the 2d Division Association in the erection of the monument, which was authorized by Congress. The Fine Arts Commission has approved the design.

Winners at the cancellation of the Boy Scouts’ Jamboree, Prominent officials of the Boy Scouts invited a group of Federal offi- cials—including Dr. Hugh 8. Cum- ming, surgeon general of the Public Health Service—over to see the model camp that had been set up along the Mount Vernon Memorial Highway in nearby Virginia at Abingdon. The plece de resistance was a meal scrved out of the newest of field kitchens, with the latest apparatus for the out-of -doors. Dr. Cumming ate sparingly—in fact just picked at the delicacies on his plate. Some of his colleagues nearby noticed it, but said nothing. Other courses came on and still the head of the Public Health Service seemed to have a pigmy appetite. He ex- cused himself early from the company | of the enthusiastic Boy Scout leaders, pleading he would see them later, at his office, One of the high-ranking Scout ex- ecutives commented on the situation. “Either Dr. Cumming is ill, which would distress me greatly, or there is something gravely amiss, which would be almost as bad,” said the Scout chief. And then, a few hours later, came word from the White House that President Roosevelt had called off the jamboree that would have brought thousands of boys to Washington in high glee. of Fine Playing S signs | edges. 42c!
