The Chilean and Peruvian delegates
to the Washington conference inter-
rupted their negotiations today to
join with the government and people
of the United States in paying tribute
to those who have served the nation
in war.
Memorial day was observed as
holiday not only by the conference
itself, but by headquarters of both
delegations, where work was sus-
pended Both the Chilean and Peru
vian Elenipotentiaries accepted invi-
tations to attend the dedication exer-
cises att the Lincoln Memorial, where
President Harding and Chief Justice
Taft were the principal speakers.
Meantime there were no indications
of what Chile's reply might be to the
Peruvian proposal to .arbitrate the
nuestiou of the sovereignty of Tacna-
africa The Chilean delegation was
understood to be in further COM
munication with Santiago, and it was
predicted generally that definite de-
velopments might be expected when
the delegations resume their joint

Henry Bacon Gave Statue
Greatest Prominence of
Four Features.
Gettysburg and Inaugural
Addresses and Symbol of
Union Complete Idea.
BY HENRY BACON.

Architect OF the Lincoln Memorial.
On the great axis, planned over a
century ago. we have at one end the
Capitol. which is the monument of
| the government, and to the west. over
a mile distant from the Capitol. is the
! monument to Washington. one of the
founders of the government. The
Lincoln Memorial, built on this same
axis still farther to the west. by the
shore of the Potomac rs the monu-
ment Of the man who saved the gov
J ernment, thus completing an un-
paralleled composition. which cannot
fail to impart to each of its monu-
ments a. value in addition to that
which each standing alone would
possess.
From the beginning of my study
believed that this memorial of Abra-
ham Lincoln should be composed OF
four features statue of the man, a
memorial of his Gettysburg speech, a
| memorial of his second inaugural ad-
dress, and a symbol of the Union
of the United States. which, he stated,
1t was his paramount object to save
and which he did save. Each fea-
means of it's design and position and
each is so arranged that it becomes
an integral part of the whole. in
order to attain a unity and simplicity
in the appearance of the monument.
Statue Most Important.
The most important object is the
statue of Lincoln, which is placed in
the center of the memorial, and by
virtue of its imposing position in the
and intelligence of the man. ex-
pressed as far as possible by the
sculptors art, predominate. This
portion of the memorial where the
statue is placed is unoccupied by
any other object that might detract
Is alone with it.
The smaller halls at each side of the
central space each contains a me-
morial-one of the second inaugural
and the other of the Gettysburg ad-
dress.
While these memorials can be seen
from any part of the hall. they are
partially screened from the central
portion, where the statue is placed,
by means of row of Ionic columns,
giving a certain isolation to the
space they occupy and augmenting
thereby their importance. l believe
these two great speeches made by
Lincoln will always have far greater
meaning to the citizens of the United
States and visitors from other coun-
tries than portrayal of periods or
events by means OF decoration.
CoIonade Symbol Of Union.
Surrounding the walls inclosing
these memorials of the man is a
colonnade forming a symbol of the
Union, each column representing a
state-thirty-s in all-one for each
state existing at the time of Lin
coins death, and on the walls ap-
pearing above the colonnade and
supported at intervals by eagles are
forty-eight memorial festoons, one
for each state existing at the pres
ent time. -
l believe this symbol representing
the Union, surrounding the memorials
of the man who saved the Union, will
give to them a great significance that
will strengthen in the hearts of be-
holders the feelings of reverence and
honor for the memory of Abraham
