IDENTIFICATION AT.
NATIONAL CAPITOL
Washington To Be Model City Of
America In Point Of .,,:
I Beauty g.

1t Is a qualification TO learn, from
Colonel Harris, engineer officer in charge
of public buildings and grounds at
Washington, that more work Is going
forward now to enhancing the, beauty
of the nation : capital than ever be-
fore, says the, American Architect. q
The movement for the Identification
of cities in this country may be said
to be we'll under way, but it would
seem that we still lack really worthy
example to which the city planning
commission through out the country
can point when endeaVOring to arouse
local pride or stimulate the develop
ment of q broader and more generous
civic spirit. .,',,. .. s.. .'
II is necessary, under such eircum
stances, to point to cities of the Old
World, such as, Paris to illustrate fully
the value and Importance of wisely
planned and properly regulated. civic
developments. Washington, the capital
city of the. United States, should be
made such an example and become the
first city of the land artistically as
we'll as politically. &c..
A notable beginning already has
been made, although an unjustifable
amount Of time has been required "a
bring the work to its present incom
plete stage. 1t is hoped that the vari
Gus plans for Improvement and ,beauti
location now under way, and 4, other
which, up to the present time are still
but partially developed, will be carried
forward rapidly and become reality
in the not too distant future. ~

Radical Changes Planned In
Store and Trust Company
Quarters

Plans are complete for extensive re-
construction of the McInerny block, at
the Eva mauka corner of Merchant
and Fort streets. 1t viii extend to the
store of Peacock & Company in Mer,
chant street and TO the Fitzpatrick
cigar store in Fort street. Work will
begin as soon as the material arrives
from tle mainland probably early in
april.
The plans include remodelling the
front of the McInerny clothing store
and tho space occupied by the Trent
Trust Company. The present awnings
will disappear and in, their place the
most modern store fronts will be in
stalled.
The changes in the clothing store
will be SO radical and revolutionary
that when they are finished old Gus
toners will scarcely recognize the place
The store will take over the space for
merly occupied by Kruger the watch
maker in Fort street; the partition will
be removed and the rear wall moved
back, giving much more room on the
ground floor for display purposes.
Then the establishment will be equip,
ped with approved modern furnishings,
such as cases for suitings, elegant, plate
glass showcases for mems lingerie and
fancy cheval mirrors. The long lines
of shelves extending to the ceiling, all
loaded with pasteboard boxes of men s
fittings will disappear. Other shelves,
not so high but equally comprehensive
and considerably more ornate will take
their places. The pasteboard boxes
will be seen no longer. The second
floor also will undergo severe altera'

are one thing and the government another, that
the ordinary of this city are not sufficient
under the wasteful government we have and have
had even adequately to maintain the three hun

build any more permanent roadbeds. This city
cannot hope ever to have proper streets except
through the unlimited application of the frontage
tax to all street building. Under the system which
has been in vogue here we cannot hope to
save what streets we have. There is no more
equitable, no more economical and no more adapt
able system of taxation for road building than
the frontage tax The law as we have il is cum

SEES But A SINGLE HOPE
Thinks Industrial Unrest Cannot Be
RemoVed-Neeessary Conflict Be-

New York, Jan. 25.-"Industrial un-
rest is the necessary conflict between
political liberty and industrial absolu-
tism. Politically we are as free as
we possibly can be; industrially we
are not because OF the great power
held by the corporations that gives
them absolute domination of their
workmen. No degree of profit sharing
will meet the situation. / don't believe
that Industrial unrest can be removed.
but there is one hope and that hope is
Industrial democracy"
These statements were made before
the federal commission on industrial
relations by Louis D. Brandeis, fam
GUS Boston lawyer and Industrial re-
former, and they summarized his
views which have been obtained by
long study Of conditions here and in
Europe.
Mr.. Brandeis was the first witness
when the commission resumed its in
quiry into the Rockefeller, Andrew
Carnegie. Sage and Baron de Hirsch
foundations and also into the relation
ship between capital and labor.
Possess Great Power.
The witness said that such corpora
tions as the United States Steel cor
poration. the Tobacco Trust" and the
Sugar Trust" possess power so great
that labor unions struggle against
them in vain.
Mr. Brandeis said that the chief
danger from corporations came from
their absolute power over their work
men He said that when profit shar>
Ing came on big scale workmen
would also have to be given some OF
the responsibility.
They will demand the right to help
direct the business" said the lawyer
Mr.. Brandeis declared that any man
In business has no time to be a direc
tor In more than one corporation
Stockholders Should Rule.
Control OF big corporations" said
he. els usually held by a body OF mer
who hold but little stock. These mer
feel no responsibility beyond trying
to increase the dividends. The fail
ure Of the individual stockholders tc
have q real voice In AFFAIR." is in my
opinion the worst kind Of absentee
landlordism."
The witness doubted II Legislation
could solve the labor problem and de
clared that experience has shown thai
workers for big corporations are sci
dom In a position to work out thefl
own salvation.
