Speaking on the topic, Full Paid

Sierocinski laid stress on the necessity
for awakening investors to the stability
of building and loan organizations.
Right now. many people who ordi-
narily would be investing money are
boarding it. either in cash in safety
deposit vaults or in low-yielding Gov
ernment bonds" he declared. AT the
first sign of a good first-class invest
ment, yielding a decent return, they
are going to invest that money in some
income bearing security. Building and
loan has that security and should merit
the confidence Of those investors. But
We must wake them up to the fact that
we have such an ideal vehicle"

Ever since a judge ruled recently
that the 7-year-old girl must worry
along on $4,000 month from her IA
theirs estate, cranks and criminals have
deluged her home with demands Cor
money, her mother said yesterday. lay
One note demanded 100000 and
another asked $4,000 on pain of kid
naping, said the mother, now Mrs. Lucy
Cotton Thomas Magraw.
"Oh, we've taken good care that
they'll never get Lucy" she said.
They've even threatened my life, too,
but I'm not worried about that. I'm a

Building and dedicate 1t In the name of

Secretary Of the Treasury Mills paid
tribute to the architect, and declared
the building would serve not only as
repository for priceless records, but
would also be a national shrine.
Speech of Mills.
He spoke in part as follows:
"The completion of the building and
the final transfer Of the archives will
mark the elimination Of many years
Of effort on the part of Government
oficials and historical associations to
safeguard the priceless records of the
Nation.
To-day much of the archives material
remains packed away In places and
under conditions that make it subject
to gradual physical deterioration and
exposed to fire hazards. The dangers
are too distressing to contemplate, for
these papers include among others the
support for titles to millions of acres
OF land, thousands Of patent rights, the
documents necessary to protect the
Government against all manner of
claims, the whole series of papers COW
ering our dealings with other nations.
and, generally speaking constitute a
written record Of our national life.

but to those engaged In historical re-
search. the building will serve as
museum and shrine. In the great hall
documents of supreme importance in
the Nations history will be placed on
exhibition and viewed by the millions
from all over the land who yearly visit
the National Capital.
"A building Of this kind should not
only fully and adequately serve the
purposes which bring 1t into being. 1t
should symbolize them. In this case
from my knowledge Of the plans am
confident that both aims will be tri-
umphantiy attained. On the one hand,
the designs are based on q painstaking
study Of the plans and methods in use
In buildings erected for archives in
European countries, notably those at
London, Berlin, Paris, Dresden, Vienna
and The Hague, where for many years
the segregation Of governmental records
has been maintained in buildings de-
voted to archival purposes. On the
other hand, the architect, Mr.. John
Russell Pope, to whose genius we are
indebted for the beauty and impressive
grandeur Of this magnificent building,
has breathed into 1t spirit Of strength,
security and permanency.
Symbols Of Faith.
THAT we should have waited this
lcng for such building is in a sense
unmistakable evidence Of the youth
of our country and of how intent we
have been on the future rather than
the past We are still so intent. For
rich as Is our inheritance, it is part
Of our fundamental creed that ours Is
a past Of infinite promise.
"The group Of splendid buildings to
which we are now adding will not only
beautify the Nations Capital and stand
throughout the years as visible emblems
of the strength and majesty of govern
ment, but will symbolic this genera
tion's faith in the permanency Of the
institutions which have made our coun-
try great and that their maintenance
Is a sure guarantee Of the fulfillment
of the promise of American life"
