these undertakings because third of
the money used by the United States
government was loaned to her allies.
This sum, about 81 900, 900, 900, will be
returned by the allies at maturity Of
the loan. Meanwhile the United States
will receive interest on the whole
sum.
and the startling fact remains"
said Mr.. Rogers, that Is cents day
saving by every person in the United
States would pile up this amount of
money in Is months
This shows the overwhelming i'm
portance Of saving in even the small
est degree. / do not believe there is
anyone who can read these figures
and not realize that small savings are
important. Too many people feel that
when they buy Thrift Stamp or
even a War Savings Stamp they are
in child's play, doing the thing on too
small q scale, not being really eff
cient.
"As matter of fact just the re-
verse is true. II efficiency means any
thing it means utilizing all the pieces,
saving little odds and ends of time,
Of material and Of money. Redeem
ing and saving the little bits-this is
both efficiency and economy.
"Of course the United States gov
eminent is never going.,to call on its
people to raise such SUMS by purchase
of Thrift stamps. Part of the money
can be raised more rapidly by buy
ing Liberty Bonds. That, however,
does not change the facts we are CIV
ing, that saving just 25 cents a day,
every day, by every American, would
pile up in little over two years, a
sum equal to the national debt on
January l."
The total sum each citizen would
have to save to equal the national debt
is $1,000. If only one cent more were
saved the sum would be $1.1O0, 900
greater.

Premier Bauer Untrue.

BERLIN. Monday. August II (by the
Associated Press).-Dr. Georg Mi
chae1is, former imperial chancellor.
has sent to German newspapers a
statement declaring he did not refuse
to negotiate with England through

seeking to prove that there was re-
fusal to meet England with a view

The former chancellor declares that
in making public the letter the pre-

This section DR.. Michaelis includes

herself three or four years against

were able to obtain peace for our
poor, tortured people and the world.
then we ought to do 1t, and not con-

NATIONAL BOTANIC GARDENS
EXTENSION POPULAR PROJECT
Several Members of Congress Deeply Inter-
ested In Increase of Area and
Identification.

Extension and Identification of the
National Botanic Garden will be one
OF the first pieces of legislation of
general character considered by
Congress. after the cost Of living.
railroads. league Of nations and re-
lief Of soldiers have been disposed Of.
Senator Moses Of New Hampshire.
who is a member of the committee
on the library, which has jurisdic-
ton over the Botanic Garden. intro
duced a bill on the opening day of
the session for the extension of the
garden, to take in park areas and
other unimproved land to the west
and south of the present site and for
extensive Identification.
Considered Appropriate Time.
When the fine arts commission an
nounced the other day that the de-
sign and site in the Botanic Garden
had been approved for the statue OF
Gen. George g. Meade, which the
state of Pennsylvania Is going to
present to the United States govern
ment and which Congress has voted
shall be erected in the Botanic Gar
den, Senator Moses decided that the
garden already is overcrowded and
tndt tHlS is d ueSlTdDlc Time " uoN e
the proposed extension made.
Senator Moses has been in confer
ence with Senator Brandegee of Con-
necticut. chairman of the library COM
mittee. as to how soon this measure
can have committee attention. and
Senator Brandegee has assured him
that the earliest possible considera-
ton will be given to the Moses bill.
Senator Brandegee is heartily in ia
vor of improving the Botanic Garden
at it's present site and appreciates its
cramped condition.
Stanch Friend Of City.
Senator Moses said today that he
will urge this bill\for passage just as
soon as the urgently imperative meas
ures affecting cost of living and the
Industrial readjustment Of the coun-
try have been disposed of. He is q
stanch friend of the National Capitol
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1919-08-12

and desires to see this city maintained
as the most beautiful in the world.
He believes one Of the sights in Wash
ington where visitors get the most
real enjoyment is at the Botanic Car
don. At the foot of Capitol Hill. where
it Is easy of success and where tour
lists tired from sightseeing about the
various federal buildings can get
pleasure and rest. he hopes that this
garden will be made worthy OF its op-
portunity and it's setting.
Probably one fourth of the ground in
the present Botanic Garden proper is
taken up by the Grant memorial at the
east entrance. on which work has been
in progress for more than eight years
and which is still unfinished. Members
Of Congress realize that the erection of
the Pennsylvania memorial to Gen.
Meade in the northeast corner of the
garden win stin further reduce the area.
SO that the great collection Of plants OF
every description that can be grown in
this climate-plants Of educational, his
toric and scientific value-is being
crowded of to one side.
Prospect Of Passage.
Representative Norman j. Gould Of
New York, who is chairman of the
House committee on the Library, is also
eager to see the National Botanic Gar
den enlarged and improved. When the
Moses bill comes up for consideration 1t
will probably have an easy time in both
Senate and House committee. with the
prospect of being passed without any
serious opposition.
The entire square west of the present
site is serving no useful purpose and
could be improved, making it not only
a beauty spot but Of lasting value to
the government and of incalculable ed
ucational value, Senator Moses says, by
authorizing the Botanic Garden to
spread over into that space. 1t is also
proposed to have the propagating

pied by unsightly shacks.

anxious to see these improvements put

tive Gould their heartiest support when
