Pope Writes Letter of
Thanks to DR.. Grammar

A letter of thanks from Pope Plus x,
written and signed by his own hand,
has been received by the Rev. DIT.
Charles P. Grammar, of the Catholic
University. This distinction, of being
personally addressed at the hands OF
the Pope, is seldom accorded to church
men in the United States. To receive
the warm personal thanks of the head
of the Catholic Church, is an even rarer
honor. The letter is signed Plus P. P.
X"
The Rev. DR.. Grammar has won the
gratitude of Pope Plus by raising the
Henry gladden., jr., fund" to ASSET N
priesthood, where the bishops are not
able to meet the COST. The fund is avail
able for use all over the world.
The Pope states in his letter, written
in Latin, that the Roman College OF
Latin-America has become so low IN
finances that a curtailment of the num-
Der of students is necessary.
Following the statement concerning
the college, His Holiness writes
Hence. you will understand rightly
beloved son, with what gratitude we re-
Iarded the announcement that you
would undertake to relieve the pressing
domestic difficulties of the college By
enlisting at large the generosity of the
Catholics of the United States OF Amer

SCOTT TO Be HEAD
Of UNITED STATES
TRUST COMPANY
Former Senator Pledged
Enough Votes to Assure
His Election.

Former United States Senator Nathan
B. Scott. of West Virginia. will be elect
ed president of the United States Trust
COMPANY ut a special meeting of the
directors of that institution to be held
Monday afternoon.
A caucus Of the directors of the COM
panv was held last night, at which
enough votes were pledged to assure
the election Of the former Senator. He
has accepted the nomination and will
serve AS an active head Of the trust
company.
Senator SOFT. before his election to
the United States Senate, in which he
served two terms. was at the head Of a
bank in Wheeling. w. Va. He retired
from the Senate March and has been
mentioned as a possible banking head.
Old Plans Abandoned.
His local and West Virginia friends
were planning the formation of a $780,
COO trust company for Washington, with
the aid of strong financial backing and
financial interests. This corporation
was almost ready to start when the
present opening developed, ard il was
deemed better to undertake the uDbuild-
ing of a going trust company. with 81.
OGQO0J cauitaI. a fair surplus. and one
that is already on paying bssis. The
United States Trust Company now pays
3 per cent annual dividends &c its share
holders.
Mr. Scott will be an active head, he
holding that the president of a fiscal in
stitution should not be a figurehead. He
will bring to the corporation the benefit
of his financial judgment and ability.
the confidence that goes with a success
full career, and a large personal follow
ing.
Long a Banker.
The banking business is a good one.
I've been in 1t a great many years
but my first love is glass making,
said former Senator N. B. Scott today
in connection with his taking the presi-
dency of the United States Trust Com
pany.
II am taking this position because
want something to do. and / shall try
to make the institution one Of recog-
nized eminence. If courteous and fail
dealing can do It.
But, as 1 say, glass making is more
fun. The active manager of the Cen
trail glass works at Wheeling now is
a young man whom ] took at twelve
years Of age and sent him to night
school while working FOR the company
Under your child-labor laws he couldn't
have gone to work then. and might not
now have been the manager Of the
concern and rich man.
Our glass does not need any adver'
Using. and no one will think I am try.
ing to advertise IT If I say 1t Is the best
in the world. Why, they can't make as
good in Paris or Venice or any other
old place"

MONEY KINGS RULE
THE UNITED STATES,
GETS|NGER CHARGES
Warns Persia, Against Great
Loan From Financial
- Buccaneers"

Charging that the wheels OF Govern
ment in Washington are directed by
financiers in New York city, E. c. Get
singer startled the Persian-Amer1can
Educational Society this morning. MT.
Getsingers declaration was explicit
Speaking of prospects Of America lend
ing money to Persia, he said:
1T is this very same American money
trust, which Is the American breaker
ahead for Persia. Let that kind OF
money once get a foothold IN Persia.
and Persia will be governed from New
York, as the Government at Washing
ton Is directed from New York city"
Persia does not know" said Mr.. Get
singer, that American trust money Is
the money which financial buccaneers
acquired by most dishonorable methods.
whose exploits in finance became SO
dishonorable that these bankers were
being called 'swindling promoters and
financial buccaneers in all the largest
magazines published in this country"
Sounds a Warning.
Mr.. Getsinger sounded a warning sew
eral times to Persia to be careful from
who she borrows in this country.
"It will be only a short time" said the
speaker, before the Persia parliament
will be acquainted with the fact that
loan Of $40, 0o0, 900 is desired for imme-
date use. 1t is this first 100000 that
will cast the die. To this financial feast
of apparently little import-whom is
Persia going to invite to sit at her side
as guest?
Taking the measure of the modern
American financier, II is not difficult
TO conclude that he will press forward
with due diligence, and become the hon
ored guest at the banquet. Should this
become true, there can be but one con-
clusion, and that Is, that such a guest
Will not only consume the feast entire,
but is likely also to eat the host"
Persia today" said Mr.. Getsnger In
beginning his address, Us struggling to
arise, to ascend, TO break through the
mists of its dark ages. and bask in the
light of a constitutional government. 1t
would be hypocrisy on my part II did
not point out to the Perian people such
dangers IS are liable to arise from the
United States. MY patriotism is noe
so great that / would hide the trickery
practiced by men in my own country in
the financial and commercial world.
Cites Persia's Advantages.
Mr.. Getsinger said big opportunities
are open to young men Of business abil-
ity in Persia. where vast opportunities
await them. where their experience and
ability are awaited
by all means young man go East TO
Persia-to New Persia. But in the name
of Heaven take only with you our bust
ness virtues-not our vices"
Mr.. Getsinger would like TO see the
Persian loan a popular subscription with
a Washington banking or securities
company acting as trustee.
THE Washington bank" said he, have
great resources. They have large guam
titles of clean money. Why not have
Persia look over the Washington field
and investigate what can be done in
that direction

COLUMBUS MAN TO
Be NAMED AS NEW
FAIRGROUNDS HEAD
Directors Here Will Pay Sal
airy Difference From Their
Own Pockets.

The executive committee of the Wash
inGton Playground Association met at
noon today in the office Of Secretary
James f. West. and decided to reach in
their own pockets and give Edgar S.
Martin the additional compensation from
the regular salary. which will be neces-
sarv to induce him to come TO Wash
ington.
Mr.. Martin at present Is director of
Fairgrounds in Columbus. Ohio. 1t is
understood Columbus wants Mr.. Martin
and is willing to nay him 5000 a year
to stay. The director Of the Washing
ton Fairgrounds can Only receive under
the law a salary of $3.50. This, how
ever, Is for ten months work. and the
directors of the association who have
been unaole to find any local man
capable of filling the office, want Mr..
to make up the difference by private
subscription.
Denied He Held Out.
Just what extra compensation will be
paid Mr.. Martin could not be learned,
although it was said after the meeting
that there was no truth in the report
that he had been holding out for 5000
to come 10 Washington.
The extra two months in the year Mr..
Martin will be busy promoting the boy
scout movement, and it is for this that
he is to receive the extra pay. Mr.. Mar
tin had practically assured the members
of the Playground Association that he
would come 10 Washington Il they met
his figures, ard the action by the exeCu-
tive committee today is taken to mean
that he will arrive in Washington in
time to take up his new duties on
Julyl.
The directors OF the association also
took up at their meeting yesterday aft
ernoon the question Of the purchase Of
a permanent Fairgrounds site for Mt.
Pleasant. 1t seems assured they will
recommend the purchase of the present
temporary site, at Fourteenth street
and Columbia road northwest, and not
the place at Thirteenth street and Co.
lumbia road, or that on Park road, be-
tween Fourteenth and Lamont streets,
which were offered.
