Michael Angelo built II In three
sections, and to get from one Sec
ton to another you have to go
down to the ground floor and go
out doors. Now I got tired of
that and had some men come
and put passageways between the
buildings at every floor.
"The new work was SO we'll
done that 1t looked just like the
old stone. But what did the ar
biters Of art do? They raised an
awful howl. They said I had no
right to touch Michael Angeles
work and that I had spoiled his
whole design.
"Wen, I'm tearing down the
passageways now just to keep
EN- quiet, but 1t means an awful
lot OF extra stair climbing and
walking for the men who work
in the city hall and for visitors"
The folks in Rome like Mayor
Nathan, too. He was reelected

He Bosses All of Rome
Hardest Job in World
This Mayor Says 1t is

BY w. q. SHEPHERD.
ROME, June 2.-''So the mayor
of Tacoma thinks he has hard
time of 1t now and then, huh?"
said Ernesto Nathan, the world
famed mayor of Rome, to me.
''Well, he ought to try MY job for
q while.
.'It's no fun to be mayor of the
oldest city in Europe. Why, I've
got the hardest mayors job in the
world!
"There are three cities here in
Rome. There's the old city that
the Romans left, the city of ruins.
It's my job to take care of that.
Then there's the part of the
city that belongs to the middle
ages; the old churches and the
glorious art. I've got to take
charge of that.
Then there's the modern city
of Rome, which had a population
of 100000 not many years ago,
and which now has 100000 resi-
dents.
Now, here's where my Job
comes in. We have to make the
narrow streets adequate for mod
ern-day travel. But just the
minute that we start to widen a
street up comes some archeolo-
| gist who says, For goodness sake,
mayor, you're not going to move
that old stone, are your Why,
it's been there 1900 years.
"YOu know what L say?" con-
timed the mayor. 81 just tell
| 'em it's - near time it was
moved, theni I'm not going 10
have any dead hands reaching
up out of the old Roman graves
and pointing out to us modern
folks here what to do. The old
Romans ran their city the way
they wanted to and we modern
Romans are going to do the same
thing.
Now, those old ruins out
there -pointing through his
window to the remnants of the
forum and the coliseum-"are
fine. My administration has just
spent about half million dollars
building a park around EN- and
it's going to be a great park, too.
But there's a limit to this relic
business.
'Then there's the old churches
they keep telling me We mustn't
move. And when I try to extend
the municipal-owned street car
lines they make awful bowls when
we plan to pass cathedral or to
cross a famous street.
ION one street q famous artist
once lived, so we can't run a street
car lime there. What are you
going to do? There isn't a square
foot of Rome that isn't famous
for some reason or other, but we
can't keep it sacred to our own
inconvenience"
Then the mayor told me about
his latest fight.
Look at this city hall I'm in
here" he said. Michael Angelo
built it. / wish he could come
back and do the job over again.

TEACHERS
APPROVE CAPITAL
Wide Streets, Trees, and Public
Buildings Arouse Interest Of
Northern Visitors.

Although the Toronto teachers who
have been in Washington think 1t Is the
most beautiful and most interesting city
they have ever visited" said Miss
Laura c. Hughes, daughter Of James l..
Hughes, who is in charge Of the
Canadian party today. they are all too
good subjects Of King George TO ever
wish to be citizens Of the United States
and residents OF Washington.
"our party is delighted with Washing
ton. The plan of the city. with its
broad avenues trees, and stately build
ings which house so many interest
ing features. has appealed to us from
the moment We came out Of the Union
Depot, and We grow more appreciative
every day"
The teachers have had hard time
deciding which Of the many points Of
interest have proved the most attract
i've. Before the week is out they will
have seen everything in Washington
sional Library, the Capitol, the White
House, museums. art galleries, and
monuments have each received atten-
ton.
Trips to Arlington and Mt Vernon. in
which the teachers have shown un-
bounded interest, have been made. and
places where American history has been
made have been overrun by the fair
visitors from the North. The President
mbassador has been visited.
About half of the Toronto party will
leave today for Philadelphia and New
York, where they will learn more about
America and Americans. but the re-
mainder will continue in Washington.

BUILDINGS BILL IS
INVALID, SAYS Mann
Declares Measure Which Was
Signed BY Taft Was Not
One That Was Passed.

Anxiety was expressed by the men,
bers Of Congress still in this city today
over the legality of the big public
buildings bill passed at the last session
Of Congress carrying with 1t an ap-
preparation Of $40.O 900 The measure
has been branded illegal by Representa-
tive James r. Mann Of Illinois, the Re-
publican floor leader.
Mann claims that there was a diff
ference In the enrolment Of the amend
ments to the measure as 1t passed the
Senate and the House, and that this
fact invalidates the law.
THE certified enrolled BILL" said
Mann. was sent to the President and
approved by him. However, as the bill
had not In fact finally passed both
houses In the shape that he signed 1t.
all these actions were illegal. and the
public building bill is no more valid in
case 1t be attacked than any other
writing which should be certified and
sent to the President for signature as
an enrolled bill without ever having
passed through either house."
Mann's contention Is being investi-
gated.
