Landmark at arlington Doomed;
Flagstaff Is Held ssInHarmOni0us'

Another old familiar landmark is
about to give way to the modern
idea of Improvement. 1t is the tall
flagstaff that has stood on r high
knoll in front of the Custis-Lee
mansion on the heights of Arling-
ton since the establishment there
OF the National Cemetery, shortly
after the close of the Civil War.
Following report from the Ma
tional Fine Arts Commission that
the shaft does not llarm6nize with
its beautiful natural surroundings,
the War Department authorized
the quartermaster genteral to con-
tract for its immediate removal
from its present site and it's re-
erection in front of the comman-
dant's house in the Fort Myer res
ervation, replacing the existing
shorter flagstaff.
The Arlington flagstaff Is 100
feet high and is composed of iron
pipes, small ones banded together
forming the lower half and large
single tubes in sections forming
the upper half. 1t stands on a thick

the top of the high terrace that
slopes gracefully to the banks of
the Potomac. On one side 1t is
flanked by the sarcophagus over
the grave of L'Enfant, the French
engineer who assisted in planning
the National Capital. and on the
other side by the monument over
the grave of Maj. Gen H. G..
Wright, who commanded the Union
troops which saved the Capital
from capture by the forces of Gen.
Early during the Civil War.
Owing to it's great elevation, the
flag flying from its peak every day
for about SO years had become a
familiar site to residents in every
direction for miles around, and its
passing will be like the loss of an
old friend. With it's removal, the
only flag in the Arlington Gene
