GROUP
DUE TO PICK SITE
Meeting of Thomas Jeffer-
son Commission Called
for Tuesday.
BY WILL p. KENNEDY.

Progress is expected to be made next
Tuesday in selecting a site for. the per-
manent memorial here to Thomas JET
ferson.
Congress passed resolution In
April, 1885, authorizing appropriation
of a fund of s3,OOO,00O for such a
memorial and creating commission
to pass on plans. Representative Boy
Ian. Democrat, of New York, author
OF the resolution, is chairman Of the
commission. He has called a meet
ing for Tuesday at the commissions
headquarters in the New House Office
Building.
The majority sentiment seems to be
in favor of a site on The Mall, near
the new Archives Building, although
three other sites are under considera-
ton. with tentative designs for each
proposed site prepared by John Rus
sell Pope, the New York architect
who designed the Archives Building.
These designs have been submitted to
President Roosevelt, who thus far has
expressed no preference.
1t is probable that at the meeting
next week, two Of these sites will be
definitely abandoned-in Lincoln Park
southeast and in Anacostia. The
other site on which studies have been
made. in the Tidal Basin area of
Southwest Washington, offers several
problems, one of which Is difficulty in
securing foundations for an impres-
Sive structure such as the commits
sion plans. There also is consider
able objection because of necessary
interference with the historic jap
anese cherry trees wsich are one of
the Capitals most attractive features,

Washington each year.
BY process of elimination, as well
as zeal to have the proposed me-
mortal occupy a commanding posi-
tion, the majority sentiment seems to
be in favor of the Mall site, where the
architect could fittingly harmonize
the plans with those of the Archives
Building.
1t is emphasized that because the
Democrats claim jefferson as their
patron saint" does not mean that
this new memorial is a political party
matter. Some of the most prominent
Republicans in Congress made
speeches stressing the fact that all
the people of the country revere JEFF
ferson and letters and kilograms have
flooded Congress appealing for an
outstanding memorial to Jefferson be-
cause Of his unique place in found
ing the Nation.
Besides Chairman Boylan, the other
members Of the Thomas Jefferson
Memorial Commission are: Senator

Hungarian Film Producer Cupid in
DIR. Sarga's Affairs.
HOLLYWOOD, November rs Dr.
Joseph Pasternak, Hungarian film
producer. cast a new light today on
DR.. Franz ("Me Against Nine') Sarga,
the dueling physician of Budapest.
Pasternak said he was the unwit-
ting Cupid for DR.. Sarga's romance
out of which the doctors nine de-
fenses of honor have arisen.
1T all started several years ago,
Pasternak said. "I was producing
pictures for Universal in Budapest.
The doctor had been made social
secretary of movement to raise
funds for civic opera.
HE came to me one. day and sug-
gested a contest to select the most
beautiful society girl as means Of
getting money. He wanted me to act
as the Judge.
II told him I not only would de
that, but would give the winner a small
part in a picture. So we had the
contest. He met her then.
1T resulted in victory for the
girl who became his wife. Mile. Marke
was related to a very rich man. Hel
father was a university professor. Ther
came the snag," Pasternak said.
"Dr. Sarga fell in love with her
and she with him. They suddenly
decided they didn't want her to wir
the contest and get the picture role
Perhaps he made the decision alone
But she agreed. So we gave the
honors to the runner-up."
The producer said he believes Mime
Sarga might have developed into ar
actress of importance.
"She's extraordinarily beautiful
worth fighting or 80 duels over" h.
said.
As for the doctors workmanship
Pasternak said: "He has more courage
I believe, than skill"

CLEVELAND, November 25.-On
whether a minor railroad accident
caused the heart attack death of Oris
P. Van Sweringen rested today the
value Of the railroad empire builder's
personal estate.
Seven physicians performed q sur
prise three-nour autopsy late yester-
day, only few hours after the finan-
cier's body was returned from the
East for funeral services this after
noon.
Physicians said results Of the au-
topsy will not be known for "a week
or ten days" 1t was asked by inSur-
ance companies. they said, because of
the large amount Of insurance held by
the 57-year-old rail and real estate
magnate, who died Monday on a busi-
ness trip to New York.
Insurance officials said most Of the
policies contained q double indemnity
clause, providing payment of twice
the value in case of accident. They
declined to reveal the size Of the poll
cies, but friends said even with double
indemnity they would total no more
than $750,00
Van Sweringen associates said his
estate would be surprisingly small
When his younger brother, Mantis,
died less than year ago. Mantis left
personal estate Of only $3,067 and
q half interest with his brother in q
$199,951 estate. At one time their
personal fortunes were believed tc
have approached 500 900, 900.
Joseph Doherty, Van Sweringer
public relations counsel, said in an
nouncing the death: "An engine
switching diner collided with the
train at Scranton, Pa. Nobody
thought seriously of it at the time
The sill Of a center window In his
car was broken by the impact"
Doherty quoted Herbert G. Fitz-
patrick, vice president Of the Ches-
apeake &s Ohio and the Nickel Plate
railroads, and w. H. Wenneman, Van
Sweringen's secretary, as saying the
accident probably contributed to q
heart attack" hours later as the trair

Of engineers from the Excalibur, which
developed suddenly just before the
liner was scheduled to sail with 56
passengers for Mediterranean ports.

the passengers were transferred to
other boats.

POST OF TUGWELL
Montana Farm PIanner Held
Likely to Be Named
Wallace Aid.
Dy the Associated Press.

By the ASSOCldteQ FreSS.
Appointment of M. L. Wilson, vet
eran Montana farm planner, as sue
cessor to Rexford G. Tugwell in the
post Of Undersecretary of Agriculture
was forecast today in some informed
quarters.
Promotion of Howard r. Tolley,
chief of the A. A. A., to fill Wilson's
position as Assistant Secretary, was
said in the same quarters to be
likely. Tolley also would retain his
present post, it was reported.
w. w. Alexander, deputy admins
traitor of the Resettlement Admins
tration, has been picked by Tugwell
to succeed him as chief of that
agency. But officials said today that
whether he would become permanent
administrator might depend on the
outcome of plans to shift resettlement
into the Agriculture Department. 1t
Is now an independent agency.
Selection of new assistants to Sec
retary Wallace in the Agriculture De-
partment will, of course, be made by
President Roosevelt, subject to ap-
proval by the Senate. 1t was be-
lieved Wallace would recommend Will
son and Tolley to the President.
Tolley returned yesterday from a
tour with Secretary Wallace and other
Agriculture Department officials
through Arkansas, Mississippi and
Alabama, looking over R. A projects
with Tugwell and Alexander.
Tolley now receives $4,000 for di-
recting A. A. A., while Wilson, as
Assistant Secretary of Agriculture,
gets $4,000.
The A. A. A. chief, At. and native
of Indiana, entered the Federal service
=. in 1912, but resigned in 1880 to join
the Giannini Foundation of the Uni
versity of California. He returned to
play an important role in the A. A. A.
before he succeeded Chester Davis
when Davis was named to the Federal
Reserve Board.
Wilson, known to thousands of
farmers as m. L." is 81 and a native
OF Iowa. He has had long experience
as farm county agent and agricul-
tural instructor and leader and has
been in the inner councils in franz
ing New Deal farm legislation.
