Simon de Bolivar.

ARRANGEMENTS are being made at the
State Department for active participa~
ton in imposing ceremonies to be held
at Caracas, the capital of Venezuela,
December 9, in celebration of the GEN.
tenary of Ter nsfJ,e son, Simon de
Bolivar, 'Liberat.r Ct South America"
who made EcneEIe.a, Teru, Colombia
and Bolivia independent republics
many years ago. The United States

ital and back to the United States in
a battleship or large cruiser yet to be

Will Present Clay Statue.
One of the special duties imposed
upon the delegation is the official
presentation by the Government of the
United States to the government Of
Venezuela of bronze statue of Henry

of President John Quincy Adams, who
was recognized as a friend and strong

cessful efforts for the independence of
South American countries.
The presentation of this statue to
Venezuela is in special recognition of
the action of that government in pre-
senting the United States with a statue
of Gen. Bolivar, which was erected in
Central Park, New York City, in 1921
with imposing ceremonies. An act OF
Congress, approved February, 1927, di-
rected the Secretary of State to pre-
sent to the Republic of Venezuela and
to erect in the Eity of Caracas, Ven
eZuela, a bronze ratue of Henry Clay
the work of an American artist, and
appropriated SAY 900 for the purpose.
Edmond T. Quinn, a prominent sculp-
tor of New York City, submitted de-
sign of the statue of Clay, which was
formally approved by the Commission
of Fine Arts and the completed work
recently was shipped to Caracas and
erected in the principal park Of the
Venezuelan capital.
Not Yet Exposed to View.
In accordance with the plans agreed
upon the statue is completely oraped
and will not he exposed to public view
until its formal dedication December
Q at the Bolivar centenary. The only
information a9out its general charac-
ter obtainabh at the State Depart

cast in United States standard bronze
and stands on a pedestal of Stony
Greek granite, suitably inscribed.
