By the Assoclated Press. The Boys in Blue who repulsed suc- cessive waves of gray at Gettysburg in *63 are in full retreat themselves today before a more relentless foe—old age. ‘The measured tread of Union vete- rans who have tramped to peaceful cemeteries to pay tribute on each Memorial day to the Nation's dead, is nearly stilled. Seventy-two years ago the Union Army numbered 2,213,365, but today only 7,424 veterans still draw pensions. Officials at the Veterans’ Adminis- tration estimate that Union survivors are dwindling now at the rate of 224 per month. Ninety-nine are hos- pitalized in Government institutions. The majority of living veterans draw $75 a month. There are 3,973 getting this sum. But 3,335 more who require the regular aid of another person draw $100 per month. Ten get $85, seven draw $110, while 79 others re- ceive varying sums under special acts of Congress. Disbursements from last June 30 to March 31 totaled $7,016,480. Smaller pensions are paid the widows, children, brothers and sisters of 77,870 Civii War veterans now dead. This compared with 87,543 re- ceiving such pensions last July 1. The record peak was reached in 1912, when dependents of 304,373 de- ceased veterans were receiving pen- sions. Under plans of the National Capital Parks Office, this familiar memorial to the District of Columbia’s World War dead is to be made leak-proof and forest greatly improved.

WAR MEMORIAL 10BE BEAUTIFIED Landscaping to Include 500 Dogwood Trees, New Grass Panels, Regrading. An improvement program that will greatly enhance the appearance of the grounds and general setting of the Dis- trict of Columbia War Memorial is being undertaken by the Office of Na- tional Capital Parks, Supt. C. Mar= shall Finnan announced yesterday. This work will be continued during the early Summer, and in the Fall it is planned, Finnan explained, to plant a large grove of white, flowering dog- wood trees in the forest surrounding the memorial. As many as 50 small trees of this kind may eventually be planted. They are very adaptable to ‘Washington conditions and flower in abundance in the suburbs and outlying country. New Grass Work Planned. ‘The two grass panels at the me- morial, which is on Ash avenue at the axle of Nineteenth street extended, are now overgrown with weeds and this condition is the first that will be rem- edied. Men will be put to work imme- diately to plow up all the ground in the panels and forest area, it was said, regrade the whole landscaping and add top soil. Then grass seed will be plant- ed 1n the panels and a water sprinkling system installed. Of late the forest area has become too thick witk trees and brush, and this condition also is to be remedied. A program of selective tree work will be undertaken during the Summer and a sufficient number of trees will be removed or transplanted to admit more sunlight. Rustic benches are to be scattered through the forest for the convenience of the visiting public. Walks to Be Rebuilt. Finnan said it would be necessary also to rebuild the memorial walks and this plan is now being studied to decide the most suitable material to match against the white marble col- umns. The roof of the memorial itself is slightly in need of repair, some leaks having developed. It will be necessary also to do a bit of re- touching. This phase of the work will be undertaken by the building | branch of the National Capital Parks office. All the existing green benches about the memorial are to be replaced, Fin- nan said, with a more attractiv rustic type that will fit admirably into the natural surroundings. The memorial was dedicated to the District of Columbia men who died in the service of their country during the World War and Summer band con- certs are held there for the enjoy- ment of the public. Being a location that is popular with visitors, yet in a secluded area of the park, the im- provement program is particularly de- sirable at this time of the year. PRECAUTIONS URGED | ON MEMORIAL DAY Red Cross Pleads for Careful Driv- ing and Safe Recreational Activities. Memorial day celebrators were urged Yesterday by the American Red Cross to observe the ‘“rules of the road and common sense” in driving their auto- | mobiles and in recreational activities during the holiday period. z “Tomorrow,” said Admiral Cary T. Grayson, chairman of the Red Cross, men and women who laid down their lives in patriotic service. Unless the pri- mary rules of safe conduct are fol- lowed, hundreds of men, women and | children will sacrifice their lives needlessly. “In a day set aside to honor the Nation's dead, there can be no indica- tion of tribute in an infection neg- lected, in show-off horseplay in the water, -in careless acceptance of a drink from polluted sources, in a moment's negligence at the wheel,” he declared. To week-end motorists, swimmers, picnickers and other holiday travelers, the Red Cross urged the observance of several safety rules, such as do not run the motor of a car while it is in the garage, care not to overexert one- self in exercise, avoidance of poison- ous plants where picnics are held, proper clothing for protection against snakes, care in swimming and not swimming on a full stomach, investi- gation of the source of drinking water and careful automobile driving. MANY BUILDINGS OBSERVE HOLIDAY Congressional Library, National Museum and Capitol to Open as Usual. The Public Library and Govern- ment department buildings will be closed today and tomorrow, but visitors will find the Library of Congress, the National Museum and the Capitol open as usual. Dr. George F. Bowerman, librarian, announced yesterday that the central building of the Public Library will be closed on Sundays from today until September 13, as well as for the holi- day tomorrow. The branches are closed on all Sundays throughout the year. The Library of Congress will con- tinue its regular Sunday schedule of 2 p.m. to 10 p.m. throughout the Sum- mer, and will be open during the same hours tomorrow. The Capitol will, remain open to visitors as usual, from 9 am. until 4:30 pm. The National Museum and Smith- sonian Institution will continue its 1:30 to 4:30 pm. Sunday schedule, and will be open tomorrow from 9 a.m. until 4:30 pm. as usual on week days. Mount Vernon, the National Zoo and various other public shrines and parks will be open as usual.

U.S.Flyer Who Died for France In 1916 to Rest in Cathedral rman Prince’s Body Due on Normandie Tomorrow. BY JAMES WALDO FAWCETT. Norman Prince, American aviator, killed while fighting for France in the famous Lafayette Escadrille, is coming home. His body is on board the liner Normandie, scheduled to reach New York tomorrow. It will| be transferred to a special car on the | Pennsylvania Railroad and brought to Washington for entombment in | Washington Cathedral Tuesday Prince’s story is part of the legend | of the World War. One of the | founders of the Lafayette detail of the French Army, he was in the air with Kiffin Rockwell and Clyde Bals- | ley in June, 1916, when no less than 40 German planes appeared in battle array. Both Balsley and Prince were beaten down, but landed safely in- side friendly lines. A few days later Prince engaged five German “aviatiks.” Victor E. Chapman went to his assistance— and was killed, the first American air- man to die for France. Prince him- self died as the result of a landing accident after an engagement in which Raoul Lufberry was his com- rade. While he lay unconscious in & hospital he was commissioned a sec- ond lieutenant and decorated with the Legion of Honor. But the honors came too late. He expired October 15, 1916. The war hero’s remains originally were interred in the Pro-Cathedral in Paris, and now are to rest in the | Chapel of St. John at Mount St. Alban | —the latter a sanctuary given by his | parents, Mr. and Mrs. Frederick H. Prince of Boston. A delegation of 30 members of the Norman Prince Post of the American Legion, Boston, will meet the Nor- mandie when the ship docks and ac- company the body to the Capital. Also, at the pier will be Capt. David G. Barr, U. S. A, and John W. Barriger, 3d, of ‘Washington. Mr. and Mrs. Prince are on board and will be met by James A. McDonough of Boston, the family's represe ‘tative in charge of arrange- ments for the services here. The special car will be attached to a train arriving at Union Station at 4:30 p.m. tomr row and the body"will lie in the station chapel until 9 a.m. Tuesday. It then will be taken by | motor hearse under police escort to | the Massachusetts avenue entrance of | the Cathedral Close, where the casket will be placed on an Army caisson and conveyed through the grounds to the Bethlehem Chapel door. The proces- sion will include a platoon of troops from Fort Myer and the Army Band playing a dirge. A firing squad will fire & tributary volley just before the casket is borne to the Chapel of St. Joseph of Arimathea, where it will rest pending the completion of the Chapel of St. John. Final services of dedication and commemoration will be held when Gen. John J.
