An Unexecuted Law.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
In his annual message, dated December
9, 1925, President Adams said: Ia
"On the oath OF December, 1899. 1t was
resolved by Congress that marble monu-
ment should be erected by the United
States in the Capitol at the city Of WASH
ington. that the family of Gen. Washing
ton should be requested TO permit his body
to be deposited under 1t, and that the mon
ument be SO designed as to commemorate
the great events of his military and polit-
ical life. In reminding Congress of this
resolution, and that the monument contenn-
plated by 1t remains yet without execution.
I shall indulge only the remarks that the
works at the Capitol are approaching to
completion: that the consent OF the family,
desired by the resolution. was requested
recently erected In this city over the re-
mains of another distinguished patriot OF
the revolution, and that spot has been
reserved within the walls where you are
celebrating for the benefit of this and fu-
ture ages, In which the mortal remains
hovers over you and listens with delight to
every act Of the representatives of his ma
ton which can tend 10 exalt and adorn his
and their country.
WIN you or some reader of The Star tell
me:
+ a. why the resolution OF Congress re-
ferred to by President Adams was not ex-
ecuted?
(2) where within the walls OF the Capitol
was the spot reservedf
triot OF the Revolution to whom suei5 q
monument was built, and where was or Is
It located in this city?
These questions are Of historic interest.
and an answer win be fully appreciated
