At once general opposition to that pro-

CITIZENS MUST AID

HAS FRIENDS IN CONGRESS
Willing to Support Project if Proper
Spirit Is Shown in Wash
ington.

Whether or not Washington will have
the celebration of the opening of the
Panama canal in 1915, with great at
tendant international exposition, depends
upon the attitude Of the business men
and the other citizens of the National
Capital. Representative J. Hampton
Moore of Pennsylvania, member of the
House District committee, stands ready
to introduce bill in the House fixing
upon Washington as the government
choice for the celebration and appro'
priating money to meet the expense OF
constructing the exposition buildings ano
preparing the grounds Mr. Moore said
today:
THE next move must come from the
citizens of Washington. | understand
that many of them desire to hold the
celebration of the canal opening here
They must frame up a proposition show
ing what they are willing to do to alo
in financing the exposition and present II
to Congress. At the coming meetlhs VI
the Board of Trade and also at the meet
ing Of the Chamber of Commerce this
matter is to he taken up for considera-
ton, ! am told.
Other Cities in Field.
A number of other cities have already
come forward with propositions to Con-
gress for the canal celebration Their
citizens have guaranteed $1,oO0,Oo or
more toward financing the celebration
and exposition. VIII the citizens OF
Washington be willing to do the same:
While the government will undoubtedly
appropriate for the celebration, ano
should rightly do so, since 1t is an affair
of great national Importance, the citizens
must bear their share.
IAN exposition held here in Washing.
ton. which is easy of access from all
parts of the country, should be paying
affair. Washington. too. has never had
a great exposition. 1t may be that the
exposition would not only pay its eX-
penses. but would pay handsome inter
est on the money invested in IT.
"The government is badly in need OF
new buildings, particularly for the De-
partment of Commerce and Labor. whose
bureaus are now scattered all over the
city The secretary of the department
should be in the same building with all
the bureaus which are under him, If pos
sble, and this government will have to
provide such building in the future.
Erect Permanent Building.
why would it not be advisable to erect
handsome building at the time of the
Panama celebration. which the govern
ment could use for this department after
the exposition had come to closer
Representative Moore is heartily in
favor of the plan to hold the celebration
here He is also in favor OF maintaining
a permanent museum after the exposition
where the manufactures and commerce ol
the world can be exhibited,
There is we'll defined sentiment in
Congress at the present time for holding
the canal opening celebration here. Many
members from various parts OF the coun-
try have already expressed to The star
their approval of the plan. and il the mat
ter comes up there will be strong con
tinsent TO vote for the measure.
