The Mortgage on the White House.

The recent agltatlen about building new and more expensive Presiden- tlal mansion has brought to the sur face an cid mortgage on the White House that has been forgotten or lost sight of for long time. Mir. M. B. Harlow, Secretary and Treasurer of the Mount Vernon Avenue Assocla- tion, is the man who brings forward the claim. In an interview about the proposed new Executive Mansion, he says:

When it is, our association, to which the Virginia Legislature has transferred its claim against the Government for monay borrowed by Gen. Washington to build the present structure, will pre- sent that claim, and ask for payment for the old before it commences the new. The claim, winch is for $120,000, has never been denied by the Govern ment, nor can it be, for we have the promise of the Government made through Washington to pay then ey back to Virginia should It ever be able to do so. We will not perhaps ask that the claim be paid in money, but will probably suggest that Con- gress defray the expenses of building the proposed national highway to Mount Vernon. If they agree, we transfer the Virginia mortgage on the White House as her contribution to the preiect."
