business affairs and all Of it's manu-
featuring institutions will be incor-
pGrated was announced last night
Heretofore the ownership and control
OF lions business enterprises have
been vested solely in Mr.. Dowie. The
change is the result of desire to ex-
triCate these interests from pending

ing cxplan1tion regarding the change:
1t was a physical impossibility for
the first apostle to attend to all of the

OF New Office Building for House
OF Representatives Will Be
Laid Saturday, April Z.
Masonic Ceremony Identical With
Capitol COrnerstOne==Pres=
ident Will Take Part.

beams for the first story are now in
place. Upon these a temporary floor
will be laid and seats provided for the
guests who will view the ceremony.
The high wooden fence which now
surrounds the foundation will be part
ly torn away that Il view of the cere-
mony may be had by persons who
cannot be provided with seats.
In accordance with Masonic traditions
the ceremony will be in the open air and
the persons who participate in it will have
no protection from the weather, regard
less of what conditions may be. Simplic-
ity will mark the event and al. preten-
sion will be avoided.
In every detail it will correspond as
nearly with the ceremony in which Wash
inSton participated. The articles placed
in the cornerstone as far as practicable
will be identical with those deposited in
the Capitol stone by Federal Lodge and
rs both President Roosevelt and Speaker
Cannon are members of the Masonic or
der, the occasion will in every way har-
monizc with the spirit of the ceremony
directed by the Virginia jurisdiction.
The Senate office building, which is in
course Of construction Immediately north
of the Caritol grounds. is not so far ad-
vanced as the House building and its cor
rerstonc cannot be laid at the present
session of Congress. These two buildings
when completed will take the place of ad-
ditions originally proposed to the Capitol
building but which We're objected to on
the ground that they would mar the
architectural scheme of that structure,
Each of the new buildings will occupy a
complete square of ground and they will
be magnificent white structures Of classic
design to harmcnizc with the Capitol and
| library of Congress.
Sept. IS. 1193, was the exact date for the
laying of the cornerstone of the main
Capitol building by President Washing
ton. The wings of the central building
were completed in 1911 and were partially
burned by the British in 1914. The entire
central building was finished in 1927. The
cornerstone for the extensions at the
north and south ends of the main build
ing were laid by President Fillmore. July
4. 1851, when Daniel Webster was the
orator. The extensions which contain the
present Senate and House Chambers were
first occupied in 1857 and 1859.

Washington, March 22-President
Roosevelt will take part in the laying
of the cornerstone of the new office
building for members of the House of
Re representatives. on Saturday. April :,
ut which time the ceremony will be
almost identical with the laying of the
cornerstone of the United States Capt.
tol by President Washington nearly
113 years ago. The Federal Masonic
Lodge, which had charge of the cere-
Inony over century ago, will have
the honor of directing the swinging
of the cornerstone of the House annex
into place. Walter a. Brown, the
grand master of the Masonic Lodge of
the District of Columbia. will super
intend the exercises and addresses will
be made by the President and Speaker
Cannon.
When the Capitol cornerstone was
laid President Washington was acting
grand master of the Masonic Lodge
in Virginia and by virtue of that office
he was in charge of the ceremony. At
that time the Federal Lodge was un-
dey the jurisdiction of the Grand
Lodge of Virginia but a few years
later, the District Of Columbia Masons
We're organized into a separate juris-
diction and consequently the district
organization will have charge of the

Three thousand invitations will be
issued to prominent men throughout
the United States. 4. The cabinet, dip
lomatic corps, senators. members OF
the House, the United States supreme
court. governors of the various states
prominent army and naval officers and
ether government officials will attend
the ceremony.
The Marine Band will escort the
Federal Lodge to the site of the new
building Immediately south Of the
Capitol grounds and will play during
the laying of the cornerstone.
In accordance with tradition the
stone is at the northeast corner of the
building and it's location corresponds
with that of the Capitol cornerstone
