letter from Charles Moore. chairman
of the commission of fine arts. q copy
of which he has authorized The Star
to publish, as follows. in part:
"In your letter of August you asked
for full information in regard to the
project of extending the Botanic Gar
den to east and west Seaton parks, as
contained in the bill now pending In
the House committee on the library.
LAS you will recall, the Grant me-
mortal was designed to occupy a space
in the White Lot directly behind the
White House, a location selected before
the plan of sol was formulated. After
that plan was published the location of
the Grant memorial was changed in
accordance with the new plan, which
shows the restoration of L'Enfant's s
idea of dignified entrance to the Cap
itol grounds from the west.
The inadequacy of the space occu-
pied by the Botanic Garden was gen.
orally recognized, and in 1914 the
House committee on the Library re-
ported bill to transfer the Botanic
Garden to Rock Creek PARK
Congress not only authorized the To-
cation OF the Grant memorial in ac-
cordance with the plan of 1901. but
also it sanctioned the location of the
Meade memorial in conformity with the
same plan

SITE FOR BOTANIC
GARDEN DISCUSSED
Chairman SIayden of House
Library Committee to
* Seek Decision.
MORE SPACE is NEEDED

Chairman Slayden of the House COM
mittee on the Library will ask that
committee to give early attention to
the question of the removal of the Bo-
tanic Garden to some more suitable
spot.
In an interview with a reporter OF
The Star Mr.. Slayden said: Il am
convinced that the permanent home OF
the Botanic Garden will be deter
mined by the current Congress There
has been some difference of opinion as
to the disposition of the garden, green
houses, etc, at the foot of Capitol Hill.
The area. as was pointed out in the
report which l submitted in 1914, is
by far too restricted and it is impos-
sible to develop anything entitled TO be
called Botanic Garden unless much
more ground is provided.
ITO buy in the vicinity of the pres
ent garden would be costly and is not
necessary. Fortunately the federal
government controls large areas in the
District of Columbia, several of which
! believe are suitable for the site of a
real Botanic Garden.

miners lamps which are being installed
at the rate of 100000 a year and Will
explosions.
The iron mines of Minnesota, the re-
port says, may in the future obtain
power for their operation from fuel
taken from the nearby beat bogs in
stead of transporting coal a thousand
miles.
In California investigation showed
a large number of deep gold miners
affected with hookworm. Measures
were installed which are expected to
stamp out the disease in few years
Investigation also was made of miners
consumption in the Joplin. Mo. district
and recommendations were made which
promise to lengthen the lives OF
workers there

Gardens on the Plaza,

"In this connection the commission
suggests that the space between the
|. Capitol and the Union station offers an
/ opportunity for a series of Congress
, gardens that may be developed in a
beautiful manner although even here
greenhouses would not be desirable.
THE bill as it passed the Senate pro-
vides that the greenhouses shall not
occupy the space set apart for drive
ways or sites of public buildings in
the plan of 1901. If the bill is to pass
!. it would be much better to locate the
greenhouses where the public buildings
will come in the future. because then
the ultimate disappearance of these
structures might be looked forward to.
1t will be very unfortunate if in the
line of vision between the Capitol and
the Monument there should be created
great areas of glass to make dazzling
sheets of light in vista that should
be undisturbed and peaceful.
We trust. therefore, that the deveI-
opment of the Botanic Garden will pro-
ceed along more adequate lines than
will be possible if East and West Sea-
ton parks, with their limited available
areas. be adhered to. 1t would seem
better to settle the matter now and
settle it right than to provide the tenn
porary makeshift which the bill calls
for. with the resulting belittling of two
important memorials"

other states have adopted the method.
The new process OF manuiac1urlng
gasoline was evolved with tne Rittman
furnace, which makes it possible to take
the waste gas oil of California which is
worth cents a gallon and make from
it gasoline at a cost of cents gallon.
The report announced that the R1ttman
process Is a commercial success and
that the bureau is ready to give to the
public a commercial cracking process,
free of royalty, which will make avail
able for internal combustion engines
large quantities of otherwise unavail-
able fractions of petroleum
In the District of Columbia, by advis-
ing the government in purchases of
coal, the bureau effected a saving OF
$4,000 and the report estimates that if
the same thing were done throughout
the government service the annual saw
ing would total $4,000 a year. The
entire country. the report says. could
save millions annually by following the
same methods.
In studies for recovering metal
wastes in brass melting the bureau
has developed an electric furnace which
gives promise of eliminating wastes of
S10,000,000 a year at the present rate
of great production and high prices.

Rock Creek Park Site.

''My bill. H. r. 1896. Sixtyfifth Con-
gress, suggested the removal to Rock
Creek Park. The House committee
made that suggestion for several rea-
sons:
Because the general Improvement
plan. approved by landscape gar
deners, artists and architects, to-
ward the ultimate execution Of which
the government is expected to work for
the next 100 years. is seriously inter-
fered with by the old garden and the
greenhouses. I refer to the proposed
vista to the Washington and Lincoln
memorials. Congress has proceeded so
far in the working out of that plan as
to fix the site of two monuments, those
to Grant and Meade. and has. through
the fine arts commission. selected the
balancing and corresponding site for
another when ordered by Congress.
Because the garden could be placed
in Rock Creek Park or elsewhere on
public land without purchasing, and
there have ample room for expansion.
Because an arboretum is a proper
associate for great garden and there
is no better place to grow trees than
the park.
Objection was raised to the removal
OF the existing garden to the park be-
cause it could not be visited by SO
many children and visitors to the cap
ital. There is something in this argu-
ment. and to meet it ! suggested that
II be sent to the immediate vicinity of
the Department of Agriculture build
ing. If that is not satisfactory l will
try to meet the objection and will
agree to any other convenient and
suitable site near the Capitol, as, for
instance. the corner of New Jersey ave-
nue. and D street northwest. which is
part of the plaza between the Capitol
and the Union station. That would ac-
commodate the children and visitors
and will. I hope, be satisfactory TO
everybody"

gest. therefore. that the space now oc-
cupied by the old James Creek canal be
devoted, to this latter purpose. This
would permit the extension of the pres
ent Botanic Garden space to the south
east and would provide a much-needed
improvement in a section of the city
which has been neglected. But such an
extension. even with the considerable
additional area, is only a temporary
