with the action of the government in
paying them in scrip which is below
par. 1t is believed the government will
no longer accept paper money in pay

PHILADELPHIA, May 15.-Today,
In the city which first placed on his
brow the laurel crown of achievement,
the memory of George Washington was
celebrated and honored in enduring
bronze. The cord which released the
saddling flags from the figure Cf the
first ruler of the republic was drawn
by it's latest ruler. Surrounding him
were men in hose veins run the blood
Of those first patriots who battled
shoulder to shoulder with Washington,
and with him made possible the scene
enacted today-a scene conceived and
planned by those very comrades in
arms; executed by their sons in Teace.
The purpose of years, evolved by a
handful Of warriors to do honor to
their chieftain, and carried through
crosses and adversely by their sons and
their sons sons, was in it's consumma-
ton beyond the brightest dreams Of
those first few war-stained Americans.
