SOVIET MAY SEVER
FAR EAST RAIL LINK

Paper Hears.

By he Associated Press.
TOXIC. March 22.-The newspaper
Nichi Nlcm IN a dispatch from
Hsinking. ManChukuo, today reported
that Soviet Russia intends to suspend
all rail traffic between Siberia and
ManChuria
If this proves true, it probably will
suspend entirely one of the main
highways of world travel, the trans
Siberian rail route between Europe
and the Far East.
The Soviet Railway Administration
already has severed connections be-
tween its UsSuri RailWay-betWeen
VladiVoStok and HabarOvSk-and the
eastern part Of the North Manchuria
Railway, formerly the Chinese Eastern
Railway, but now operated by Japan's
South ManChuria Railway as part of
the ManchukuO national system.
These two lines formerly connected
at POgraniChnaya, on Manchukuo'S
eastern frontier, and did a f1ourishing
business in carrying Manchuria's
produce to salt water at Vladivostok
The connection was broken when the
Russians charged japanese and Man.

workers at the junction point.

Reason for Stand.

The league advised Mr. Roosevelt
OF these reasons for its stand:
i. The site chosen is that deSig-
mated for pantheon by the Mac
MILAN Commission of 1901. appointed
by Theodore Roosevelt to establish
maSterplan for the City Of Wash
lngton. This commission paid homage
to the L'Enfant plan. but transgreSsed
Its spirit IN many ways There is
no need here to go into the detail
OF their tranSgreSSlOnS. which were
due to the fact that they thought of
a city as consisting of buildings on
paper, whereas it really consists of
people and their perceptions of build
ingS in space.
The essential point is that L Enfant.
who planned perCeptively. intended
that the entire south side of the Mall
and also Of what is now Potomac Park.
shounld be kept free of important
buildings for the very good reason that
any architecture seen from the north
is constantly in shadow, and therefore
merely silhouette against the sky.
Aside from the LEnfant plan. the
chosen site is bad because it will re-
duce the Tidal Basin to a formal pond,
destroying the cherry trees; the foun-
datiOn conditions could hardly be
worse; there will be great traffic diff
Guilty at the Highway Bridge.
.. We submit that the architecture
OF Imperial Rome is not the architec-
ture of jefferson or the New Deal,
Jefferson was himself a very great
architect, fully appreCiative of the use
Of site and topography, as the campus
of the University of Virginia proves.
1t is true that jefferson used the
classic style. But in his day the
classic was the natural expression
OF the architecture, there was no other.
Moreover, there must be made the
great distinction between tn free and
living use of classic elements and the
pedantic adaptation of them. The
classic of MonticeI and the campus
is without pedantry. it is alive TODAY.
whereas the classic of the proposed
memorial is dead before it is built.
You, of course, know the tomb of
Jefferson at Monticello, with his own
simple epitaph. What possible rela-
ton is there between that man and
this proposed monument? What re-
lation is there between the marble pile.
