There was no central bank from

and even strong and sound institutions

years made . careful study Of banking

Cut Down, Despite Protest.
Just west of these grounds. In a
space now occupied by temporary
buildings. we saw valuable trees
which had stood for years cut down,
in spite Of the specific promise made
US from the floor Of the House that
they would not be disturbed.
To-day the space Is an open plot
of ground. Ever since I have been
in Congress agitation is on to aban-
don the garden space. There. where
trees planted by Lincoln, by Grant,
Booth and Barrett and other his
toric characters, the cedar of Leb-
anon from the Holy Land, the oak
from the grave of Confucius--all will
meet like fate of the others.
Il do not object to the plan of ex-
panding the garden. We went into
that matter year ago when we en-
larged the area. a m for that improve
the proposal of the Fine Arts Com
mission to ultimately develop prop
er. arboratum. / am strongly in favor
of such movement in the capital. AS
to the Mount Hamilton expansion. /
am open to conviction. am not pref
udiced against the proposal and am
willing to go into the matter in de-
tail. But am uncompromisingly op-
posed to the plan of destroying the
inestimable value of the collection
within the brick walls for no other
resano than here given, that grow
ing trees, Towering and ornamental
trees. rich in beauty and historic sig
nificance, plants and shrubs housed
within glass structures, interferes
with a plan to surround the Capitol
with monuments. Whether the monu-
ments are properly placed ! do not
say. but I know that a botanical col
lection OF 100 years will not mar the
beauty of the Capitol grounds.
THE educational feature of the
conservatory lies mainly in its col
lection of plants. expressed in the lay
out of the planting, showing their
similar to their ma
tive habitat. The growing. feeding.
towering and pruning are carefully
planned and executed. since all plants
are labeled as in their geographical
distribution and economical value.
Zach of these houses has, as near
as can be arranged. a different tenn
perature re,~corresponding to the tropi-
cal and subtropical regions. Some of
the plants are planted in the soil.
Needs of soil to bring out a land
scape effect characteristic in tropical
regions require particular attention.
Some are placed in pots to be rear
ranged periodically.
The money value of these collec-
tons could not very well be estimat-
ed: SO many plants are rare and 9TH
ers are of such size that no CONNER
cial value could be attached"
