Debate as to the artistic merits OF
the stamps of the Roosevelt adalnls-
tration has engaged the attention OF
many Washington collectors during
the past week A wide variety OF
answers have been received for the
question: Which are the most at
tractive ISSUES produced since March

delivery, for its beautiful engraving
craftsmanship, and the Michigan is

Mrs. C. L. Manning, philatelic
curator, Smithsonian Institution, Sc
lected the scent parks as an inter-
esting representation of a natural
wonder: the Connecticut stamp, for
its historical symbolism, and the
original I6-cent airmail-special dellv-
cry, for its significance as reflection
of national unity.
Alden H. Whitney, regional vice
president. Society of Philatelic Amerl-
cans. chose the Accent parks, because
of Its richness in color, minuteneSs OF
design, reality of design and color,
and the expert workmanship Of the
engraver": the 16-cent airmail-Special
delivery in its initial aspect, for the
meaning back of the design, the
beautiful smooth blue shade, and the
simplicity of the stamp; and the
Connecticut commemorative, for ''the
beautiful shade in contrast to the
cold violet and purple of other State
stamps, the simplicity of the design
and the artistic capacity of the en-
graver."
Albert F. Kunze, former president,
Washington Philatelic Society, cast
his vote for the Maryland commemo-
rative as a noble composition spoiled
only by its small size. with the Con-
necticut and Wisconsin issues tied
for second place" in the list.
F. A. Bickert, president, Washing
ton Collectors Club, gave premier
position 10 the connecticut ColIlllclilo-
rative, and accorded second prefer
ence to the Accent parks and third
to the 16-cent blue airmail-special
delivery.
Other readers are invited to send
their opinions to the Stamp Depart
ment, The Star.
There still is an excellent chance
that a commemorative stamp for the
tercentenary of Harvard University,
first American institution of higher
learning, will be authorized.
President Roosevelt's objection that
such an issue would set dangerous
precedent probably can be met if
widespread general demand is made
manifest.
Those interested are invited to wire

diately, with copies to Acting Postmas-
