say TO me. We want TO see what Wash
ington will do The cc1ntry is waiting
for Washington. The money which might
now be donated by residents Of this city
has a threefold value and we need II
much more now than we will later. for
when the States see that this city has
taken the initial step they viii follow
YOU We expect money from each State.
for each State will have the right OF using
the building
Newspapers are the greatest power
with which I have 10 work. II could
persuade the press that this is a great
project. We could raise the money in a
short time, for the papers would con-
tinually keep the subject before the pub
lie. and the public would continually give
US money.
AT the present time We have about
$4,000 in the treasury. and nearly $4,000
pledged, which l can have by asking
for il.
DR.. Charles d. WaIcott. secretary Of the
Smithsonian Institution and a member
OF the advisory council Of the associa-
ton. explained tentative plans which ne
has made for the building. DR. WaIcott
said he was confident that scientific men
would donate $4,000 He said circulars
have been sent TO the 5000 members OF
the American Association for the Ad-
vancement OF Science. who are scattered
all over the United States. In an effort
TO learn what the general sentiment OF
the country IS concerning the erection OF
the auditorium
From the replies already received Dr.
Walcott said that from coast TO coast.
the members Of the association are in
favor Of the project.
Plans for Building.
DR.. Walcott outlined his plans for the
auditorium. which call for a building with
a base OF 200 by 800 feet and 50 feet high
and seating 5000 persons. The auditorium

Mr. Macfarland, as presiding officer.
