TWO ROOSEVELT BUSTS DIFFER
COMMITTEE ON LIBRARY HAS
A POSER IN SELECTION.
Niche In Senate Chamber Ready for
Marble Memorial When Choice
Is Made.

Ex-President or, more properly. ex-
Vice President. Roosevelts bust in marble
is soon to be placed in niche in the Sen
ate chamber alongside of all the other
Vice Presidents of the United States since
John Adams. The sculptor. James L.
Frazier of New York city. has finished
it only remains for the committee on the
library to choose. That is what the COM
mittee is trying to do now.
The trouble is that the two busts are SC
different. One shows the calm, thoughtful
Roosevelt and is said to be perfect In its
way The other portrays him as the SEN
ate knew him best. with fiery eye. pro-
truding jaw and tense facial muscles. in
short, the real strenuous Roosevelt. This
one is regarded by all who have seen it
as a splendid likeness also.
While Senator Wetmore of Rhode Is
land, chairman Of the library committee
has not committed himself in favor OF
either one, it is rumored that he and the
other members of the committee are dis
posed to award the palm to strenuosity
'Tis said they think the Senate will fee
more at home with that one looking dowr
on it's deliberations. But the rub comes
on account of the fact that Col. Rooseyel,
has himself expressed a marked prefer
ence for his reposeful self. Before he
left the White House h4 was shown the
work Of Mr.. Fraser. and didn't hesitate a
moment, tits said. in ma king his choice
Selection a Knotty Problem.
OF course, the committee recognizes
that Col. Roosevelt ought to have some
thing to say about his own bust, but the
question it is trying to DECIDE is how much
The committee is inclined to think that
the Senate ought to have something to
say about the matter, too.
it is truly a knotty problem. and one
that is likely to cause the library com
mittee much worry. One member has
gone SO far as to suggest. he said. seri-
ousiy, that the question be submitted ia
the Senate without recommendation either
way, so that the ma ajority may decide.
When the decision is made 1t will be
necessary to remove one OF the busts al
present in the chamber and put il out In
the corridor somewhere. in order to make
room for the Roosevelt bust. This course
was followed when the Fairbanks bus'
was put in place few months ago. The
newest busts are always given the pref
erence, with the exception of the srea,
men of the early days. whose right to the
best places Is held sacred.
