CANAL GATEWAY
TO HAVE STATUE
Of De LESSEPS

tBy AHeOetANe0 EfrhssD
WASHINGTON, Jan. 1s.-With
the digging nearly done, and the
Notifications well under way, the
decoration OF the Panama Canal is
subject OF renewed attention,
aroused particularly by the sug
gestion from France that the early
work OF Ferdinand De Lesseps. the
French engineer. be commemorated
by a statue to him at some con
splcuous point on the canal. This
is but one Of the many ideas, how
ever. and the whole question OF
establishment OF the waterway is
still open
Artists generally agree with en-
gineers that the canal is monu
ment to itself. but at the same time
there has been no lack of sugges
ton for identifying the waterway.
One proposition is for colossal pill
lars at the outermost points of the
Atlantic and Pacific entrances, sur
mounted by statues Of heroic proper
tons Of Columbus, Balboa and others
whose names have been indelibly
connected with the discovery OF
America and the development OF the
canal. Another proposal has been
for a statue to Senator John Morgan
OF Alabama, one Of the pioneers in
this country for Isthmian canal con
struction De Lesseps. by the way
has not altogether been forgotten
for the house which he once oc
cupled at Cristobal is still preserved
In front Of 1t stands a small mon
ument to Christopher Columbus.
The government Commission o
Fine Arts, made up OF many of thu
leading sculptors and architects o.
the country, has already studied tn.
problem OF identifying the canal, bui
its report which Is awaiting actor
by Congress has only one specific
proposal for a commemorative mon
ument. This Is presented as follows
"The Commission OF Fine Arts be
lieyes that a memorial record of tn,
building OF the canal should he mad,
in the form of an impressive inscrip
ton upon a great monument surface
at some point of prominence, and
careful examination CT the wnoll
length of the canal led to the choici
OF the east wall at The point of deep
est cut, 492 feet, at the continental
divide. While the size and des;gi
OF this monument should be the re-
suit Of careful stn,y we are In
clined to believe that 1t should b
approximately 100 feet in height an
somewhat more in width, that
should be severely simple in design
I that the lettering should be done i
Roman V.shaped letters and tina
the material should be eoncret
applied as massive facing to tn
irregular fractured trap rock o
the cliff. We strongly recommen
this and regard 1t as one of tn
most important matters to be con
sidered. We suggest also the pos
sibility OF marking the highes
point OF canal excavation on Coll
Hill immediately over the propose,
inscription with some form OF mon
ument. This should be considere,
carefully by the designer OF tn,
principal monument"

BITTERNESS OVER

Jonesboro.-The city council framed
resolution, which was sent to the
local school board, requesting a list Of
all children not attending schools and
stating that the council would take
action for enforcement Of compulsory
education.
The school board, resenting what It
termed interference" attacked the ad'
ministration, saying;
I'VE confess with shame that there
is much vice and corruption In our
city, but we did not expect you TO ac'
knowledge the fact with such frank
ness, or to offer gratutiously to an
other branch of the city government
your surplus law-enforcing energy.
in view Of the fact that your action
has justly provoked the expression we
feel jutified in saying that we have,
at no time, suspected you Of being able
to fulfill the duties of the position to
which you have been elected, and we
feel confident that this opinion Is
shared by a large number of the citi'
zens Of the city
your resolution was possibly adopt
ed in good faith, but we must con
cmde that at the time of its adoption
you were suffering from an oyer-esti'
nation Of ability and an exaggerated
notion OF your prerogatiyec Let us
advise you to bend your whole efforts
toward correcting the conditions that
you point out and acknowledge. See
that there are no places Of vice and
corruption for our children to look
upon, but until you have placed your
own house in order we suggr that
you give your time and attention to
your own business"

State BANKING Act Valid.

The validity Of the act creating the
state banking department for a period
Of II years was upheld in an opinion
handed down by the Arkansas Su-
preme Court in the case Of Greer
against the Merchants and Mechanics
bank.
The constitution prohibits the state
legislature from creating a permanent
state department, and opponents Of
the banking department charged that
the banking department was created
as a permanent branch OF the state
government.
Chief Justice McCulloch, in writing
the opinion, held that the legislature
acted within its rights when 1t created
the department for a period Of only II
years. lie declared that the legisla-
tors specified that the department was
only temporary and that they had au-
thority to determine what period
should be construed as temporary,
The opinion is taken TO sustain also
the creation by the Legislature Of the
State Tax Commission and the State
Labor Department,

yersy was begun in October 1913, and
continued until June, when negotla'
