room and the probable placing Of a por-
trait of Mrs. Harrison in the room, I
was obliged to believe her own words,
and / understood. as was the case, that
the objects OF the two committees were
absolutely dissimilar, so after answering
Mrs. Scotts letter, stating to her that
national committee. l went on with
my work, asking and receiving the cor
dial cooperation of many of the most
prominent members of our society.
"On August 10, l received q circular
which I find has been sent by Mrs.
Scott to members of the society through
out the country, which states that the

mortal, such as a scholarship or scholar
ships in perpetuity for descendants Of
Revolutionary ancestry
1T Is apparent that two committees
which have in view the same object. ap-
pealing for support to the same body.
cannot fail to create opposition: l do
not wish to be a party to any such situa-
that the project of scholarship. or
practical. living memorial, originated in
Manhattan Chapter, and the women as
sociated with this movement are natu-
rally deeply disappointed to find that their
idea Is taken from them and to be thus
pushed from their field of usefulness,
but the name OF Mrs. Harrison is far
too dear to them to be made a subject
OF controversy; IL they could descend to
methods that are not high they would
not be worthy of their heritage.
Our motives have been unselfish and
our object has been exalted, and VIII
not permit any project such as that we
have in mind to be in any way degraded
or lowered by a contest, even though
we have been forced into a most try
ing position. I, therefore, II my COM
mittee will permit me TO do so, will turn
over to Mrs. Scotts committee the ac-
cumulated funds we have in hand, pro-
vided that her memorial takes the form
of practical good, such as a scholarship,
and will further the project to the best
Of my ability:

Mrs. William Cumming Story, regent Of
the Manhattan Chapter, d. A. R., and
leader Of the conservative members Of
the D. A. R., has signed a statement in
the September number of Veritas Maya
zine in which she relates some inter
esting facts in connection with the me-
moriab movement to raise funds for
memorial to Mrs Caroline Scott Har-
rison, the first president general of the
d. A. R., and wife of the late President
of the United States.
In this letter Mrs. Story states that
on June Is, her chapter, the Manhattan
Chapter, Of New York City, at its birth
day meeting, started a proposition to
memorable Mrs Harrison in some fitting
manner, preferably in practical fashion.
Mrs. James r. Mckee. Mrs. Harrison's
daughter, was communicated with, and
II is said she gave the Manhattan Chap
ter plans her cordial cooperation. On
suggestion Of Mrs. Mckee, who said her
mother, Mrs. Harrison, was a practical
patriot the memorial was to take the
form of "a scholarship in perpetuity for
descendants of Revolutionary ancestors,
patriotic education, or some project that
would be of value to humanity"
Mrs. Story further states that she in
yited daughters 10 serve On Ll1S SOil-
mittee without regard to party lines,
hoping that the memorial to their first
president would be a medium Of unit
ing factions divided on party lines. She
says that as an act OF proper Official
courtesy she invited Mrs. Matthew T.
Scott, president general OF the D. A. R.,
to serve on the Harrison memorial COM
mittee as honorary vice chairman. In
view Of my desire for harmony and CO.
operation between the Daughters,
writes Mrs Story, II was, therefore,
greatly disappointed when the president
general, Mrs. Scott. declined to serve" f"
In declining to serve. Mrs. Scott wrote
Mrs. Story that she had in hand move

Room, and intended to have portrait
of Mrs. Harrison made and hung in the
most conspicuous place in the room.
