THE GEORGE WASHINGTON MEMORIAL

Washington, D. c., May 12.-Georgt
Washington and the 100000 mer
who represented America in the recen,
wal are to be honored together in 9
great memorial auditorium in this city
The project is called the George
Washington memorial because it was
started "a years ago for the purpose
of carrying out one of the ~unfulfilled
provisions of Washington's will. The
war broke into the slowly developing
plans. and afterward the idea of the
double memorial took shape.
Now, plans are going rapidly for
ward. Congress has approved the 70
ject and donated a site in a central To-
cation where some of the temporary
government offices stood during the
war. The cornerstone was laid by
President Harding last November. a
few days after the unknown soldier
was honored in the capital. Mrs. Hard
ing a been made honorary president
OF the George Washington Memorial
association, and the $1,000, 900 neces-
sary to erect the building is being
raised among states and organizations.
Governors of all the states have in
dorsed the plan, and Tennessee has
a bond issue of 500. 600 AS
its share in the fund. Construction
work will begin next year. it is hoped.
Plans for the memorial have been
approved by the national commission

questionable age when they should be
imbibing the principles of patriotism.
He expressed an ardent wish that there
should be founded a national univer-
city free. as far as reasonable. from
local attachments and state prejudices,
and he left $4,000 to establish that
university.
The $4,000 bequest mysteriously
disappeared, some say through failure
and reorganization of the Potomac
company in which the bonds were in
vested. 1t has also been said that the
money lapsed back into the estate.
Attempts of the treasury department
some years ago to trace the money
were futile. Invested at compound in
~terest, the beQuest would now amount
to more than $4.O0O,000 but it has
permanently vanished.
Interpreting Washington's Wishes
Congress has at intervals discussed
the establishment of a national univers-
ity, and the tendency now is toward
n very learned institution for the scien-
lists and scholars of the country-not
exactly Washington's idea, but a school
for the scholars is more needed now
than another fapper college.
The George Washington Memorial
association, started in 1894 has like
congress been trying to carry out
Washington's wish. 1t approaches the
matter from another angle. Some
years ago it decided, as congress did,
that a broad view of W~ashington's de-
sire might well be taken. Mrs. II. f.
Dimock, president of the association.
suggested that the erection of a great
national auditorium and headquarters
where patriotism could be inspired and
would surely meet with the
approval of Washington. since his aim
in establishing a national university
was to promote patriotism.
Three presidents, Taft, Wilson and
Harding, have Endorsed the plan. and
the board of regents of the Smith
sonian institute of which the president
is the head. has accepted the control
of the administration of the building
and trusteeship of the fund. 1t is
prophesied that when finished the
Washington Memorial will be
to America what Westminster Abbey
is to England and what the Pantheon
is to France.

pledged themselves to I'LL a certain

national attention and 1t will be fol-
lowed by Il ~nation-wiGr campaign of

stated.
Mr.. Schuck believed Montana is on
the threshold of an era of prosperity
and the Montana dry lands will grow
rapidly in value after fhc harvest of
1922 which he thinks will establish
a record of production which may be
taken as a basis for land value. Il
believe the outlook for prosperity on
a stable, dependable basis in Montana
is the best it has ever BEEN" he said.
dry lands, properly titled, are more
productive than expensive acreage in
Iowa. Minnesota and other states. A
definite demonstration of the yield of
which these lands are capable will
bring immigration into the state dur
ing the coming year."
Mr.. Schuck has visited each of the
larger cities in the state during the |
pastN three months and has made a
study of economic and business |
conditions. He has talked with hun
dreds of business men throughout Mon

high and coal production costly
is the fact that both the plant Of
the coal operator and the labor OF
the miner is idle a good part of the
time, and both the capital of the
mine owner ands the labor of the
miner must earn a living wage for
the whole time whether idle or not
Now to devise some plan whereby
mines may run all the time at a
steady rate would go far to solve
the problem of coal wages and coal
prices. 1t may seem a simple task
to the man standing on the outside.
1t does, and many of them have
rushed into print to tell how it may
be done. But MI. ]. D. A. Morrow,
vice president of the National Coal
association, does not think it so
simple. Here is what he told the
congressional committee Investigate
ing the coal situation at a public
hearing:
"The benefits of steadier opera
ton are of course perfectly obvi-
Gus to the mine operator, the mine
employee and the railway, but there
seems to be a good deal of confu-
sion as to ho-- this result can be
brought about.
Most advocates of sterilization
feel that all which is necessary is
for the government to require pro-
ducers to operate their mines regu-
larly, as if the operators did not
make every possible effort to OPP
crate their mines as regularly and
as near full time as possible.
ut is perhaps appropriate there
fore at this point, to direct the at
tention of the committee to the
salient facts which really determine
the irregularity and f~luctuating
character of bitpminous coal mine
operation.
Some operating conditions are
due primarily to the consumer of
coal.
A bituminous coal mine runs not
when the operator wants it to run,
but when the consumer of its prod
uct wants it to run.
"The really striking fluctuation
is that in the consumption of the
householder-the domestic con-
From a winter maximum of 10,-
600, 900 tons a month, his consump-
ton drops in the summe to but
over 100000 per month.
Here is a winter maximum five
times as great as the summer mini
mum, as compared with only 10
per cent variation in the case of
the railways.
From these figures of the Unit
ed States geological survey, it is
perfectly clear that anyone who
proposes to stabilize the operation
of the bituminous coal mines of the
United States must stabilize the
consumer of coal.
stripped of all optimistic verbi-
age, such proposals analyze down
to a proposition to persuade
Or compel the domestic consumer
to take in his bituminous household
coal in fairly regular quantities
throughout the year.
Seasonal variations in freight
have been proposed for this
purpose.

holders to buy coal during the sum-
