Stewards Washington Lettel
BY CHARLES p. STEWART
NEA Service Writer.
(By Charles p. Stewart, NEA Service

(By Charles p. Stewart, NEA Service
writer).
WASHINGTON the Washington
monument is a landmark certainly
But why all this raving about It's
good looks?
People come from all. over this
broad land and go down to the PARK
where that monument stands and
lcok at it and enthuse and then go
home and tell everybody what per-
fectly beautiful thing it is.
I can't see it so myself.
Not that I've anything against 1T.
I wouldn't call it ugly, but neither is
it particularly ornamental, so far as
L can make out. It's just negative.
1t isn't a blot on the landscape but
the landscape would be equally salts
factory if it weren't there.
The impression l get is that people
go into fits over it simply because
they've been told in advance that,
when they see it, that's what they'll
throw.
The Washington monument is moth
ing but plain obelisk.
The original Egyptian obelisks are
interesting in various ways. They've
no aesthetic appeal but they're cur
iosities. There's the puzzle how the
old Egyptians. cut 'em out in such
large chunks and got 'em set up.
Then the inscriptions on the sides
contain information well worth find
ing out But beautiful?-not bit.
1 don't criticize the monument. 1t
does no harm. On the other hand,
I can't discover that it does any
good.
In some folks minds it may arouse
patriotic thoughts-of the Revolution
and the Declaration of Independence
and the Founding Fathers and George
Washington and all that. If so, it's
a good thing.
AS for me, 1 get more kick out of
seeing Georges picture on dollar
bill.
