DAUGHTERS OF 1812 IN NATIONAL SESSION aldwin Speaker at Banguet— 8pangted nner Memorial Gov. Star P A Star Spangled Banner memorial to be established by the Daughters of 1812 and presented to the nation when the Maryland chapter observes the cen- tennial of the writing of the patriotic hymn nevt September, was proposed In resolutions offered to the assoclate council In national session, at New Haven Thursday. Mrs. B. L. Whitney of Detroit offered the resolution, which is based upon the official announce- ment made them that the New York chapter will assume the obligations of the Daughters to contribute $10,000 {for a room in the proposed George Washington Memorial building in ‘Washington, D. C.. leaving the Daugh- ters free to divert to other purposes the contributions already made by state chapters to the memerial room. Mrs. Whitney in her olutions pro- vided that before funds aiready con- tributed to the George Washington me- morial are diverted to the proposed Star Spangled Banner memoriai the consent of contributors shall be ob- tained. Mrs, Whitney said, in support of the resolution, that the Daughters’ fund for the room has grown slow) in fact contributions to date total oaly $510 from eight states. The Banner memorial would cest $§00 and the bal- ance after diverting the $510 which would .be on hand by reason of the offer of the New York chapter could be secured by a 30 cent per capita tax on members in states which have not aiready contributed to the room fund. | Mrs. Tozier of Cleveland | raised the point that the obligations of | the Daughters include the presentation | of a eertificate te each contributor, and no money could rightfully be de- | voted to some other object without consent of the givers. Several dele- gates spoke with enthusiasm upon the project, and Mrs. William Gerry Slade, the lonal president, who presided, sald at should the point have been raised she would have ruled that Mrs. Tozier's point was well taken. Mrs. ghi'ney believed that under the reso- n each of the eight states which have turned in contributions to the room fund can get the consent of indi- vidual contributors to have the money diverted, or returned, leaving the rna- tional society a clear field to ralse money to complete the Star Spangled Banner fund. The resolution was held in abeyance for further diseussion with expectation that it would be paseed. The management of the mew fund is to be in the hands of five national of- ficers. To Prevent Pilfering from Graves. Miss M. Louise Edge of New Jersey asked the council for suggestion as to means to prevent pilfering of society markers from the graves of soldiers of the war of 1813. The chief suggestion offered by delegates was that markers be set in concrete, or in stone which has been first set in concrete. Mrs. Calvin F. Troupe of Baltimore reported upon the placing of markers on soldiers’ graves, saying that a defi- nite policy has been ‘d‘r(ed by which no marker will be placed over a grave of a soldier of 1812 unless the soldier’s actual participation in that war |is ceriified to in some way, most prefer- ably by a certificate from the military copyist of the war department or a copy of & pension paper or some doc- umentary evidence, The soclety from now on desires to be certain tha treal socdiers of the second war with Eng- land only are honored by it. Gov. Baldwin Speaker at Banquet. The annual banquet was heid in the evening at the Hotel Taft and was largely attended. Governor Simeon E. Baldwin was one of the speakers. The governor gave an historical a dress dealing with the war of 1513 “In the month of April,’ he said, “one| hundred years ago, the British were successfully invading the United States. They were successfully In- vading the seil of Connecticut. The great wars through which have passed as a people were clv wars. The war of 1813 was almost a civil war. In this war there was no se- rious thought of arbitration as a means of settiement. Sixty yvears later when the Alabama claims came to the front war might well have fol- lowed, arbitration was proposed and accepted. “International arbitration and bet- ter still, arbitration courts, have had two great friends since the War of 1812, in Great Britain and the United States. They are the great features today if international intercourses. Let us be thankful as we look back to past wars, for what has been their ultimate results in preventing fu- ture wars.” evening. His inspiring sermon was from the text John 66;. It is the spirit which quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing; the words that I have spoken unto you are spirit, and are life.
