In the political history of the United

written in bold letters. 1t stands for
progressive ideas in government After
more than a quarter of century Of
battling for these ideas the late SEN
ator Robert Marion La Toilette of Wis

to follow in his footsteps, Bob" junior

the opposition of powerful influences,
the sons of the late Senator La Fol-

the United States and Governor of
Wisconsin, respectively. Today SEN

Upbuilding Of Greater Washington.
The greatest of our public men have
been the strongest champions OF the
Capital George Washington created 1t
and gave it his name. Thomas Jef1er-
son, with and following washington,
was a planner, founder and upbuiloer
of the city. Andrew Jackson threw
himself with enthusiasm into the work
of adequately bridging the Potomac,
urged the allowance Of a Delegate in
Congress to the District, and in his ad-
ministration, with his cooperation and
sympathy, the Nation came to the
financial relief of the community bank
rupted in performing the Nations task.
Discrimination between the later Presl-
dents. from Lincoln to Hoover. all OF
whom have been friends (or at least not
unfriends) of the District, might seem
invidious. But 1t B only justice to re-
cord that Grant, the man of deeds, not
words, had the opportunity which ne
effectively utilized to lay broad and deep
foundations of Washington as truly
the Nations city, while Coolidge and
Hoover will be recorded in history as
among the great master bullders-prob-
ably the greatest in the last half CEN
tury-of Washington the City Beautiful.
Great men from all sections, in Con-
gress as well as the White House, have
delighted TO labor to make the Capital
worthy Of the Republic. Clearly there
Is noble work for any statesman in
identifying himself conspicuously with
the upbuilding of the Nations Capital
In these days of easy divorce, trif1ing
causes of dispute often disrupt the
family partnership, but in the Capital
making partnership between Congress
representing the Nation and the people
of Washington, divorce, though some
times suggested. now on one side and
now on the other in q spasm of discon-
tent, is neither feasible nor desirable:
What the Constitution Of the United
States has thus joined together is not
to be put asunder. Since, then. these
partners are to live and work together
In Capital building, let them by mutual
consideration, forbearance, sympathy
and regard live together happily and
work harmoniously and effectively to
the end that through their joint labors
magnificent Capital may be developed,
which every Washingtonian may with
patriotic enthusiasm claim as his home
and Of which every American may be
proud.

KREUGER MOURNED
BY WALL STREET.
News of Death of Match Mao.
nate Is Received With
Deep Regret.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March l2.-News of the
suicide in Paris Of Ivar Kreuger, into
whose enterprises American investors
have put some $500, 100000, was re-
ceived today with deep regret in Wal
Street, where he was regarded as an
outstanding genius of international
finance.
Although the news came after the
close of the New York Stock Exchange
the stock, or technically American GER
tificates, of Kreuger & Toll Co. was
sold in huge volumes, accounting fol
about one-quarter of the days tota
turnover of the exchange. Some 1856, ,00C
certificates were traded. The CLOSING
price of IS, however, was off only 81
cents from yesterdays and was IS cents
above the low price reached in 1881.
Visited New York.
Kreuger left New York only a week
ago yesterday after spending several
weeks here. His visit had been at.
tended with little publicity. He had de-
clined to be interviewed, but associates
said he privately expressed the opinion
that American financial quarters were
unnecessarily concerned over the state
of European affairs and that repara-
tions and other problems would be sat
isfactortly solved.
While 1t had been rumored he might
be seeking funds from bankers here,
Lee Higginson & Co., which has headed
syndicates floating Swedish Match is
sues In this country, said today that it
had no loan negotiations with him and
that he had described the conditions of
his companies as satisfactory, in view
of world conditions.
Kreuger & Toll. incorporated in Swe-
den at the top of the Kreuger COM
panies, controls the Swedish Match
Co, which in turn controls the
International Match Corporation of
New York. which has taken over
large portion of the international busi-
ness Of the group. Its principal busi-
ness in this country has been confined
to the importation and sale Of matches.
Securities Hold Up.
the securities OF international
Match, under considerable pressure in
recent months, held up fairly well to-
day International Match preferred,
the only listed stock Of the company

The bonds declined moderately.
Inasmuch as most of the business
Of the Swedish Match group has been
on the basis Of monopolies granted by
government in return for loans, 1t has
been regarded in banking quarters as
unusually stable. However. the sharp
fluctuations in foreign exchange rates
and restrictions imposing difficulties in
making international transfers are un-
derstood to have been troublesome for
the match group in the past several
months.
