War Department Rule.

Since the act of Congress Just men
toned the rule has been eStalliS shed by
the War Department of permitting only
states OF the Union and foreign govern
ments to place stones in the Monument.
Many requests have been received from
time to time from Masonic orders, odd
Fellows, Sons of the Revolution, DauGh-
ters of the Revolution, patriotic, fraternal
and other organizations for the privilege
of placing stones in the interior. lhese
have always been refused. There seems
to be some question as to the legality OF
granting any such permission to private
orga nizationS in the absence Of a con-
gressional act but it is understood that
the refusal has been based largely on the
additional ground that the dignity of the
interior Of the Monument would be i'm
paired by an excessive number Of such
stones, many Of which would be interest
ing to no one except the donors and the
purpose of the privilege would thus be
defeated.
1T is not believed to be desirable to
depart from the rule followed Tor nearly
thirty years. An exception III favor Of
the Grand lodge OF the state of LouiSi-
ana would probably open the privilege to
all Similar societies.
