hundredth anniversary of the removal OF
the seat of government to the District OK
Columbia. Among the objects proposed at
that celebration was the restoration of the
White House the residence of the Presi-
dent of the United States, project the inn
perative nature of which was already rec
ognized by Congress. By reason Of most
fortunate chain of circumstances a Presi-
dent alive to the Importance of having the
work done in the most thorough and artistic
manner came to be intrusted with the task
II is in no way invidious to say that IL the
selection of an architect for this delicate
undertaking had been left to this body the
choice would have been the man whom
President Roosevelt did select-the president
of the Institute of American Architects.
How well he has carried out the work, with
what thorough respect for the traditions OF
the house. with what comprehensive knowi-
edge of the universal language of his pro-
fession. with what noble self-restraint he
has subordinated decoration to architect
ure. and with what modesty he has made
the old mansion speak its own speech and
not that Of an individual architect-an
these things you may see fe- yourselves.
The Importance OF the work on the White
House by way OF tea ching the highest les
sons of dignity, restraint and historic ira
dition, coming as 1t does at the very begin
ming of what we fondly hope is new era
In Washington. cannot be overestimated.

that is waiting before US has been the COD

a supreme example of such continuity.
Progress of Plans.
Thus briefly and ipperfectly. 1 have
sketched for your encouragement the prog
ress of plans as yet scarcely year old. N
this connection cannot forbear to advert
to the fact that the one man In Congress
with whom the work Of restoring the l. En-
FAINT plan and carrying 1t to its ultimate
conclusion through the plans of the park
commission was a passion has passed
from the scene of endeavor. Suddenly. I'M
expectedly. at the moment Of highest use
fulness and promise. and just as he was be-
ginning to see the fuldllnent OF plans ana
purposes pursued through thirteen years OF
strenuous and Intelligent effort, Senator
McMilIan's career on earth was terminated.
1t had been his expectation to press upon
the attention of Congress at this session a
combination OF all the scattered authori-
ties over District parks and reservations.
and to create a single body capable of en-
ploying experts to perfect the details and
to carry out thoroughly and vigorously tho
comprehensive scheme of the park commits
sion. That task now devolyes upon others;
and Ii should be the duty of the membeTs
of the American Institute of Architects TO
exert their constant and determined innu-
ence toward the creation of such board OF
control. BY SO doing they, win complete 9

The Star have been informed promptly Of
the introduction Of every bill that might
appeal to their interest In every stage OF
its progress they have been informed OF 40

and by the Senate and House OF Represen-

Rapid Transit Of News.
The methods Of transmitting the proceed
ings Of Congress to The Star Office in vogue
today render the service as prompt as II
the editorial and composing rooms Of The
Star were located in the Capitol itself. The
telephone is depended upon for transmit
ting all late news. This Is a private line
running from the reportorial rooms Of The
Star to the corridors outside the galleries
Of the Senate and House Of Representatives.
In the progressive steps Of reporting the
messenger of foot has been displaced by
the 1.-the boy who can drive a bicycle from
Capitol Hill to The Star building in a few
minutes, and the telegraph. requiring the
writing of dispatches before they could be
forwarded has been supplanted by sys-
tenn of dictation from the Capitol to ex-
pert typewriters who sit in the reportorial
rooms of The Star. Those who know the
difficulties attending the getting of late
news to afternoon papers, and have not
kept in touch with the modern methods
pursued by The Star, would be surprised
to know how readily complete reports Of In
cidents occurring as late as o'clock, are
transmitted to The Star, rushed to the
desks of editors. sent shooting through
pneumatic tubes to the composing room,
prepared for the forms by means OF the
most approved typesetting machines. stere-

possible to promptly deliver the edition had
the size of the population warranted such
service. But there was no haste to read
the news. The newspapers the people were
accustomed to contained dignifed state
ments of what had taken place, with date
lines as far removed from the time of pub
LEGATION as it took the mails to cover the
intervening distance.

Reporting District Legislation.

Today the facilities provided for promptly
placing every happening at the Capitol be-
fore the subscribers of The Star form the
most complete system that it has been pos
sibe to devise, both in it's personnel and
IN the mechanical facilities necessary for
conducting the work. The gathering of
news at the Capitol is specialized to a large
extent Local legislation has always been
recognized as of the greatest Importance to
the readers of The Star, and while all gen.

so great to cause any neglect Of ques-

New York, November, 23.-Re-
