FORREST STATUE
FACES THE SOUTH
Satisfactory Reason Is Given and
Bronze Figure Will Stand as
W First Raised.

Memphis, Tenn, June 5.-The statue
Of General Nathan Bedford Forrest,
"Wizard Of the Saddle" which was
unveiled Tuesday in Forrest Park, will
continue to face the south, despite the
many protests Of confederate soldiers.
f. It was not until the heroic size euues-
trian statue Of General Forrest was COM
pleted that it was generally noticed
that the horse and rider were faced
toward the south, that part of the
country for which General Forrest
fought SO valiantly. gsa
There was storm Of protest that
continued even at the unwilling cere-
monies. e7.
General Forrest never turned his
back to the enemy said those who
objected to the position Of the bronze
figure.
The committee which had the cree
ton Of the statue in charge said not a
word up to the unwilling in explana-
ton of what was seeming oversight
on their part. Then they gave their
views, which apparently settle the con-
troversy.
'tThe placing Of the statue facing
toward the south was not the result of
an accident,' said member Of the
committee. ''Its position Is the result
OF much discussion.
