OBSTACLES ID
 MEMORIAL CLEAR
Monument to Titanic Victims
 Seems Likely

Washington. May 2s R-obsta- cles which for IS years have block ed the erection in Washington of . statue commemorating the 1,500 victims of the Titanic disaster are slowly being cleared away. Mem bers of the Woman's Titanic Me- morial Association feel that they have ground to hope that there long objective will be reached in another two years.
 Organized shortly after the dis aster in 1912, the association promptly raised more than $4o,- GOO for the memorial. but 1t was not until 1917 that bill authoriz- ing use of public grounds for the purpose got through the legislative jam in Congress. and even then the site which had been selected was denied.
 A. new site was chosen. on the Potomac near the ground dedi- cated to the Lincoln Memorial, and Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney of New York went ahead with con- pletion of the statue from de- sign approved by the Fine Arts Commission several years earlier.
 The new site was under water, but plans had been made for con- struction of sea wall as part of the program for linking Potomac and Rock Creek Parks.
 Appropriations for the wall were hard to get. however. and work on it had to be suspended. in 1922. after only part of the riprap foun- dation had been put in. The last Congress granted $25.ooo for re- sumption of the work, but that was enough to provide for little more than repairs on the old foun- dation, engineers estimating that another $175,oo0 would be needed.
 Meanwhile the mem orial associ- ation leaders have the same spirit which animated them 15 years ago, when the late Mrs. John Hay was their chairman, and they had the active support of Mrs. William Howard Taft, then mistress of the White House.
 Mrs. Taft still is interested in the plan, which is under the guild ance of Mrs. John Hays Hammond. who was the first secretary of the association, and Mrs. Robert s. Chew, her successor in that office when she became chairman. They are confident that the necessary will be granted by the next Congress and that soon afterwards they will be able to complete their task.
