vote an authorization for a favorable
report on Senator Marines resolu.
tlon authorizing the appointment of a
Joint committee of FIVE senators ana

report on the feasibility of having the

and Arlington, after she had made a
visit to the place. A year ago she

voted to proving the patriotic duty of
the government to acquire and pre-
serve Monticello. Since then Mrs.
Littieton has kept up the fight over
many obstacles.
The most formidable OF these has
been the opposition of Representative
