OHMAN ON Local Pastor Appears Before Com- mittee in Congress (Special to the Heraid.: Washington, March 15—Eloquent pleas were made by several Connecti- cut men at the hearing before the house committee on library, for the erection of a monument to John Erics- son, the inventor and builder of the Monitor, the ironclad vessel of Civil war fame. Rev. Dr. 8. G. Ohman, of New Brit- ain, pastor of the Swedish Lutheran church, of that city, was one of speakers. Another was Rev. G Youngert, pastor of the Swedish Luth- eran church, Hartford. Both thes clergymen are Swedish-Americans, and there were a number of other per- sons attending or partic ipating in the hearing who are of Swedish birth or descent. There were two bills under consider- atlon before the committee. One by Representative Tilson of provides $125,000 to pay for Ericsson monument, which would be in Washington. The other is by Rep- resentative Fitzgerald of New Yor chairman of the appropriations com- mittee ,and carries $100,000 for the monument. Representatives Tilson and Oakey of Connecticut were on hand for the hearing and both men addressed {he committee on library. The Connect. icut wministers and other speakers re ferred to Capt. Ericsson's Swedis! birth and his service in numerous pacities in Burope and America, his great ability and the wonderful results that followed the building of his Monitor. Ericsson Lived in Connccticut. It was pointed out that Tricsson lived in Connecticut and that the Monitor was built in New Haven, with Connecticut capital. Mr. Tilson stated that one of the backers of the projoct for building the ship was W. G. Bu New Haven, and that former Repre- sentative and Postmaster N. D. Sper- ry, of New Haven, who died a few years ago, also helped finance the construction of the Monitor. Mr. Sperry is said to have put up the bond required by the government in con- nection with the contract for the con- struction of the naval vessel. Connecticut is therefore very intercsted in the Tilson-Fitzzerald bills. The former gives the republi- can party representation on the com- mission that is proposed to have charge of erecting the Tricsson mon- ument Naval Experimental Work.
