tion which, when driven to crime by pow
erty and heartless relief policies, resorts
primarily to anti-social acts OF a nature
which, in their opinion, would keep them
from starvation. Please make no mistakes
about my attitude. There is no effort in
this to condone crime Of any sort, but
am interested in pointing out that there
is on the face of it a close tie-up between
the type Of relief policies we have and the
amount Of crime We have, and that crimes
Of violence, instead of increasing, have de-
creased through both the colored and white
population despite extreme poverty and
suffering.
Several well-known Washingtonians are
now shouting for an addition of 200 men
to our police force Instead of providing
for more police, We should provide more
adequate relief policy which will make even
fewer police necessary rather than in
creasing the force II some worthy gentle
men are looking for increased activities for
police, would suggest that the police be
charged with the responsibility of check
ing on the enforcement Of the 4s-hour law
for women which is at present without any
law-enforcement machinery that means
anything and the minimum wage law for
women, which requires a large enforce
ment machinery. This would constitute
good social contribution to our community

Suggests Arch Memorial
To Thomas jefferson,

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
As the Thomas Jefferson Memorial Com
mission is about to resume consideration
OF the subject Of suitable memorial and
location for it. 1t seems to be an opportune
time for me to present what I believe to
be an original idea on this subject. Let
me say at the outset that am unalterably
opposed to the Htilitarian type OF me-
mortal, as has been suggested in some
quarters, such as a stadium. or . bridge,
or library. Rather I favor the mon
umental type
Let us consider these different ideas.
For example, We have the Taft Bridge
and We have the Lincoln Memorial. There
is nothing about the Taft Bridge which
exemplifies or even suggests the life and
character of the distinguished statesman
for whom it is named. 1t Is safe to say
that not one person in ten thousand who
passes over the bridge ever thinks Of 1t
as being a memorial to Taft. On the other
hand, the Lincoln Memorial with its beauty
and majesty can not fail to impress every
one with the personality Of the Great
Emancipator.
Now then for a constructive suggestion
with respect to the proposed Jefferson
Memorial. For many years I have carried
in my mind the idea that at the point
where Sixteenth street intersects the Dis
trict line there should be erected . beau
tiful arch which would mark the northern
gateway to the Capital city: say something
like the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, or even
the memorial arch at one of the entrances
to Prospect Park in Brooklyn, New York.
A further elaboration Of this idea would
provide for the extension Of Sixteenth
street as boulevard for many miles into
Maryland, perhaps as far rs an intersec-
ton with the Baltimore and Frederick
highway. This boulevard with lateral high
approach to Washington.
At one time my dream contemplated
that the memorial arch at the point in
dicated would be dedicated to Theodore
Roosevelt, but since Columbia Island has
been set aside for that purpose such idea
must necessarily be abandoned Further
more, the recent cluttering up Of the land
scape on the Maryland side Of the District
line at Sixteenth street with . lot Of
architectural monstrosities. presumably in
tended for human habitation, would seem
to explode the idea Of anything beautiful
In that location. am, nevertheless. strong
for the basic idea OF memorial arch
for Thomas jefferson whether 1t be To-
Gated at some other point further south
on Sixteenth street, or perhaps at the
intersection Of Rhode Island avenue with
the District line northeast. or elsewhere
in the Judgment Of the Commission.
hope the Commission will give the idea
for q memorial arch their earnest con-
sideration.
