The Flag Display.

The complete lack of uniformity in
Washington's first opportunity to fly
the flag from the curbstones is de-
feet which must be remedied il the
display hereafter is to be effectively
artistic. The condition found today
empha sizes the need for consistent
action on the part of all downtown
property owners. AS they are, the
contrasts are too striking. Along the
side of one block flags are found flying
gayly at intervals Of few feet, while
on the other side one lone flag is do
ing it's pitiful best to express the
patriotism Of it's owner. In the next
block there are no flags. while in the
next score Of them, at irregular in
tervals, seemingly attest the store
proprietors' approval or disapproval
Of the scheme. Many failures on the
part of store owners to decorate their
curbstones is due possibly to the fact
that this is the first holiday which has
called for the general display of the
flags. Familiarity with it's objects
and a realization of the possibilities
embodied in this plan of decoration
will probably serve to add scores Of
recruits and the lack Of harmony
noticeable today doubtless will in some
degree be removed on future occa-
sions

Architect Discusses

To the Editor of The Star;
noted with interest the editorial
in The Washington Star OF June 20
entitled 1.-THE Potomac Power Issues

tects is deeply interested in the oe'

The point to which I wish partlc-
,1larly to call attention is the 1acI
that there seems to be some misuh-
derstanding as to the nature OF .ne
proposed power development. d! uh-
derstand that this will consist OF TWO
dams. one at or near the Cnaln
Bridge which will raise the wafer
level practically to the top or the
gorge at that point, submerging the
rapids, islands and palisades in a lake
which will extend to the foot or the
Falls. At the Falls proper another
dam will be built, at the top OF the
Falls. and all of the water will be
held behind this second dam, DIS
charging through turbines at the bot
tom Of the Falls with the spillway re.
turning to the river at the lever OF
the lower lake, developing the head
by the distance from the
top Of the dam above the Falls to the
foot Of the Falls, and preventing any
water whatsoever from flowing over
the Falls except in case of floods or
high water. The FANS
therefore would simply become a
mass Of rock foundation supporting
a concrete dam.
In view of the interest your paper
has taken In this subject would sug-
gest that you assign some one to In

true picture Of the effect Of the pro-
posed development may be pre-
scented. M. B. MEDARY.

carried out to the full will make
Washington's streets gay with bunt-
ing on proper occasions, to raise the
flags on the eve of the anniversary
When, as now occurs, the holiday falls
on a Monday, the flags must be raised
on Saturday. Otherwise the business
men must have their stores opened on
the morning of the holiday merely
for the purpose of putting out the
banners.
The utter futility of the order that
went forth on Saturday for the re-
moval of the prematurely displayed
flags is self-evident. Haul down the
flag merely because it was-too prompt
ly displayed? Who would be so bold
as to impose a penalty for refusal?
What a spectacle would be presented
in the Capital City IL that were done?
Would any court impose fine on a
merchant for breaking such a rule?
Let the rule against flag,hoisting in
advance Of the day of celebration be
rescinded. 1t is imperative. 1t only
make the rule makers ridiculous. The
purpose Of the system of flag display
is to make Washington gay with the
national colors. 1t would not be a bad
thing. indeed. if it were afutter with
the Stars and Stripes every day of
the year. So. let the preposterous
rule go into the limbo of other unen-
forcible mandates, and encourage the
patriotic business men of the Capital
to hoist the flags in ample season for
every occasion that calls for this man.

of moving military air forces from

This DAY We Celebrate"-why?
Because it is the birthday of the
greatest Nation that ever existed
ours.
Because it is the day on which the
greatest events in our history as a
Nation have occurred, both in war
and in peace-time progress.
Because it is the date on which the
tide Of victory has always turned for
the United States.
With blessings come obligations and
duties. What are our Fourth Of July
duties?
First, to stop and think what bless
ings we have enjoyed and are enjoy
ing under this Nation, born one hun
dred and fifty-one years ago today.
and then to pledge fealty anew.
Second, to have a deep apprecia-
ton that the stability of the Govern
ment is founded on the individual
homes, and to make this a day of
closer family ties, Of family outings,
Of family talk on the relationship or
the individual to the Government and
Of good citizenship.
Third. since our birth as a Nation
was due to those who fought in the
Revolution, and our preservation as a
Union was due to those who fought in
the Civil War, and as our fight for
human freedom throughout the world
was successful through those who
fought in the World War, we owe a
debt to the veterans. How could this
be more fittingly paid than in some
personal service of love to the manned
veterans in Walter Reed. Mount Alto
or other hospitals?
