 Charles H. Lamb one or the ch1e1 pro- motors and designers of the Dewey arch, said this morning In speaking of the pro- posal to make the arch a fixture, that all such propositions were premature.
 ''The Dewey memorial arch" said MT. Lamb, twas designed for temporary structure, and we had no idea that an at- tempt would be made to make it perma- nent monument. We think 1t will be very beautiful but we do not know whether it will come up to our expectations when It is completed. It would be, therefore, quite impossible at the present time to discuss such plan. If the arch should turn out as We expect it will. and the citizens of New York should wish it, then it will be time enough to consider such a proposal.
