Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1916-02-24

llic-spirited citizens looks to the Ameri-
can Institute of Architects as the nat
ural guardian Of their interests in the
architectural development of their
Capital city, and in their present zeal
have placed upon its officers the bur-
den of conducting a campaign which
has grown like the proverbial snow
ball.
THE eminent engineers who took
part in the first personal protests have
appealed to their thousands OF profess
sional brethren throughout the country
the American Federation Of Arts has
awakened not alone the artistic pro-
fessions but the thousands who resent
any backward step in the art move
ment in this country. while the civic
bodies akin to Washington's splendid
committee of one hundred have added
to the forces now in arms until 1t mus
tiers some 100000 citizens.
This estimate includes no mention
Of the great reading public Influenced
by the press. the vigorous utterances
Of which have plainly pointed out the
duty of needing such unimpeachable
warnings as the adverse report Of the
fine arts commission carries. The
tender to the institute Of other chan
nels for spreading authoritative infor-
nation has been most gratifying, but
the magnitude of the task of holding a
brief for what will total in a few
short days approximately a half mill
lion of our most active intelligent citi-
