HARDING CDMMENDS
MEMORIAL PROJECT
Plans for Carving Huge Por-
traits of Southern Leaders
Explained by Artists.

Gutzon Borglum and Hollins
Randolph, of Atlanta, obtained from
President Harding yesterday let
ter of commentator for the huge
memorial being cut in the side of
Stone mountain.
The letter win be read at a
meeting of the Memorial Associa-
ton on April 20. Governors of all
Southern States are to gather at
that time at the site of the project
and hear plans for it's prompt com
pletion.
Borglun and Randolph revealed
these plans to tho President and
assured him that, financially and
scientifically, every obstacle has
been overcome to carve into the
sheer face of the great granite block
near Atlanta the worlds largest
monument
The work will get underway at
once and will not be abandoned
until foot soldiers, cavalry, field
artillery and noted figures of the
army of the Confederacy, standing
100 feet high, are shown in a
procession 100 feet long, Ran.
dolph said.
The undertaking has been made
possible by the invention of a
great projecting machine, or cam
era, that will throw the figures on
the mountain side from a small
artists drawing The machine is
placed 200 feet away and gives the
desired size. While the figures are
reflected painters will outline them
in paint SO that stone workers with
air drills can then see how to com
plete the has relief.
The figures are of such proper
tions that a man working on them
at close range could not tell
whether he was carving a nose or
an ear. The nose of one of the
figures is nearly yard in heighth
and the small bone in a horse leg
is larger than barrel.
The stone cutters will merely
follow the painted outlines. which
are to be properly shaded, and the
work will be completed. Until this
method was devised the concep.
ton was believed to be impossible,
and sufficient financial backing
could not be secured from patriotic
organizations.
Now that we are confident the
memorial can be completed with.
out great difficulty, we will go
right ahead with it," said Randolph.

concluded that a number of bust.
