EYESORE,
SAY ARCHITECTS
They Reply to Newton's De-
fense Of Proposed Gen.
tral Structure.
SITE IS ONLY OBJECTION
0noo,.nts n.cl,r. Stacks Wo,H
Opponents Declare Stacks Would
Ruin Beauty of Potomac Park
and Lincoln Memorial.

A spirited reply to Assistant Secre-
tary of the Treasury Newton's defense
of the proposed central heating. light
ing and power plant was made yester-
day by John Lawrence Mauran and
Burt l. Fenner. president and secre-
tary, respectively, of the American In
stitute of Architects. Mr.. Newtons de-
fense was published in Mondays issue
of The Herald.
Mr.. Newton would have It appear"
say the architects, that those oppos-
ing the project in it's present form de-
sire to prevent the erection of such a
plant, and he leaves it to be inferred
that their opposition may be traced to
the opposition of local company
which has been supplying electricity
to few of the Federal buildings.
"At the outset, therefore. let it be
understood that the American Institute
of Architects is heartily in favor of a
central plant. and that its present op-
position is directed solely against the
site chosen. Mr.. Newton says the cen
trail heating, lighting and power plant
will not add to the Disagreement of
Washington. 1t will not further mar
its beauty To this categorical state
ment, the institute makes an equally
categorical denial.
Mr.. Newton states that, on the site
chosen, the plant Will not be seen from
the White House, the Capitol or from
any of the government buildings. This
statement is in error. The plant will
be in full view from the Lincoln Me-
mortal and from Potomac Park. This
park, destined to become one of the
most beautiful island parks in the
world, will have as it's chief object of
interest in the immediate foreground.
the power plant with its stacks and
smoke. and in the future. as authorized
by the present bill. an asphalt plant"

SOUTHERN SUFFRAGISTS
FOR AMENDMENT
Congressional Union officials Say
Sentiment Is Growing in Favor Of
Federal Enfranchisement.

Southern suffraEists are rallying to the
support of the Federal amendment for
woman suffrage for the first time in the
history OF the movement, there Is an
Indication that the proposed enfranchise-
ment of women as a States rights issue
is losing ground, say Congressional
Union officials. The Congressional Union
has recently established branches in
Texas, Arkansas, Tennessee, South
Carolina, and Virginia.
Interest in the passage of the Susan
B. Anthony amendment has apparently
been quickened by the defeat of suffrage
in many of the States where the
measure has been brought before the
legislature. Miss Alice Paul, chairman
of the union; Mrs. L. st. Clair Thomp-
son, of North Carolina, field secretary
for the South, and Miss Mabel Vernon
national organizer, who have recently
returned from the South, where they
established state and district branches
OF the Congressional Union, declare that
the general sentiment among the SUI
fragists south of the Mason and Dixon
line seems to indicate a revulsion of feel
ing and an increasing tendency to rally
around the pending Federal measure.
