MONUMENT NEED
SEEN IN BUILDING
Architecture bt That Type
Declared important as
Mass Housing.

America needs monumental archi-
lecture no less than housing for the
masses, according to Ralph Walker Of
New York, chairman Of the City Plan
ming Committee of the American In
stitute Of Architects.
Regardless of the apparent present
trend to social RECOMMENDATION" Mr..
Walker declares, I'VE may say that
without the desire or the ability to
create . monumental architecture peo-
pie remain builders by instinct only,
and, strangely enough. produce merely
. civilization OF habit, and not OF
intelligence. History is filled with
building of the ants and the bees.
THE necessity and order which
motivate the design Of factory OF
q warehouse are not the same com.
modify which creates beauty in hcme
life. and certainly they are not the
qualities desired where the spiritual
aims Of q people demand expression
1t Is quite evident that the word func-
tion has been given a too narrow
meaning in the last few years. 1t il
one Of the functions of architecture
to inspire greatness.
Many claim that the need for the
monument Is dead. But we know our
American democracy needs beauty and
distinction. not only in public build
ings, but In all buildings-beauty
toward which the citizen may look
for . symbol Of public obligation

had this in our early history and
we have also had great deal OF ugli-
ness, and, while there is no reason
to look backward, we are again at
tempting a way and must find it, re-
gardless Of mechanical blight.
"The monumental is conceived in
the spirit OF q time and does not
necessarily mean conservatism, or that
the past Is our only master. In a
world which has rediscovered con-
crete. invented extruded steel and
improved glass. the monumental is
too often confused with the bones Of
the Greek Doric. There is, however
Just as much new, free opportunity
in the design Of stone and marble
as there is in steel and glass and.
while one group is more recent than
the other. both are In constant need

While the home has q large number
Of windows, unusual care was taken
by the builders to prevent leakage

 MOSCOW TRIAL
Deposed Chief, Timber h. dustry, Admits Acting
 as British Spy

MOSCOW, March 3. - Vladimir Ivanoff, deposed chief of the Soviet timber industry, testified today that he plotted to turn Russia's north ern forests over to English mag mates as compensation for British aid to overthrow the Soviet regime.
 Testifying at his trial with 20 other defendants charged with reasonable conspiracy, Ivanoff said that since 1884 he spied for the British Intelligence Service.
 Details of the conspiracy have been traced to Leon Trotzky, for mer Bolshevik leader, now exiled in Mexico
 One of the defendant conspir- atOrs confessed plots for the life of higherups in the Soviet regime were progressing.

 ter kinks out of their muscles rockies are more anxious and eager-they must sell themselves.
 There are more than a hundred rockies trying to prove their abili- ties, ambitious to be stamped as major leaguers Some clubs carry only a few rockies, others offer op- portunities to many. The size Of their rookie corps, along with the style in which they live at resort hotels and the extensiveness of their exhibition game tours, va ries the spring training cost. Some clubs spend $3O,0OO while others go as high as $700OO, or more.
 The purposes of spring framing are five-fold.
 l. It serves to condition players after a winter of inaction
 ?. It gives managers opportuni- ty to look over the rookie crop, and to experiment. in trying players at different positions.
 B. The exhibition games afford the actual competition necessary to have the teams ready to go at top speed once the season opens in mid-April
 4. The training trips send the teams as baseball missionaries to localities where high-class ball is seldom seen. It increases interest in the game
 5. The ballyhoo value is adver- Using that couldn't be bought. Newspaper writers trek along with every team and the folks back home get daily digests of the activi- ties of their fayorite players.
 The clubs generally get guaran- tees from the cities they choose as training camp bases and this cuts their expenses some.
 It's hard work, combined with a nice vacation After they've done their stint in the practice yards, the players have all the benefits and pleasures of winter resorts, live at the best hotels and sign checks for sumptuous food
 It seems that Pop Anson, Chi cago Nationals manager, ordered the first training camp in 1885 when his players reported out of shape. And John J. McGraw, New York Giant pilot, was the first to take his players to the top hotels In the early days many baseball players were rowdies and it was McGraw who persuaded the inn keepers that players could be gen. tlemanly guests.

FOR BUILDING BOOM
Mortgage Money Plentiful for
Financing Home Con-
struction Work.
BY Cambridge Associates.

BY Cambridge Associates
In the face Of a Nationwide short
age OF new homes, which has been
accumulating for about eight years.
and with more general recognition of
the vital relation of construction to
our national prosperity, conditions
seem ripe for a tremendous stimula-
ton throughout the residential build
ing field, declares j. r. Ridgway,
chairman OF Investors Syndicate.
However, for the movement to
reach the proportions it should in
order to have widespread business
effect. there must be concerted sup
port from the building industry, gov
ernmental agencies, the buying public
and all other elements affecting con-
struction.
There is an abundance of mort
gage money available today. at in
terest rates that are the lowest in
history for this type of loan. Ninety
per cent loans, if restricted to the pro-
posed classification, and carefully ap-
praised, would be helpful. However,
application of remedies through
financing liberalization can be only
partly effective. Caution should be
used in any further reduction in in
terest rates.
1T must be recognized that the cost
OF securing and administering re-
latively small monthly payments on
loans is substantial factor. There
fore. any reduction in rates that i'm
pairs net earnings of mortgage in
vestors can drive the public out of

PRODUCTION
EQUALS 1886 HIGH
Industry Was on Way to Record
Until Recession Set In,
Saws Editor.

BY Cambridge Associates.
Douglas G. Woolf, editor of Textile
World, points out that on July l
textile mills of the country concluded
q phenomenal period-the most active
IL months in the history of the in
dustry.
1T looked as if a new record would
be established for the calendar year
1887. However, the recession which
occurred in all industry in the latter
part of this year did not spare textiles.
Despite this setback the total
textile mill activity for 1887 has
been about equal to that of 1886.
Since the latter was itself the highest
previously on record. IS per cent above
the 1S23-25 average, this means q fine
performance this year.
"For 1888. the textile outlook is one
which is not too easy to define at this
writing. So much depends upon the
behavior of the stock market and the
course of general business. My own
belief is that the first part of the year
will be slow, with q decided pickup
in the latter part, and that total
activity for the year should rate at
approximately the high level which
has characterized 1886 and 1897.
Obviously all predictions made now
for 1888 must be hedged carefully,
pending clarif1cation Of the present
situation"

BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK. Jan. 3.-The New
York Stock Exchange announced
today it had been informed by the
treasurer Of the Erie Railroad that
interest on five bond issues due today
would not be met.
The exchange said the Erie treas
urer had informed it the road was
unable to meet some of the condi-
tions imposed by the Reconstruction
Finance Corp. for a loan of s6 6,006, 900
and consequently would not deposit
funds here to pay the interest due.
Earlier in the day the exchange
had informally suspended dealings in
the issues because of doubt as to
whether interest would be paid. Fol-
lowing word of the roads plans, how
ever, dealings were begun on a fiat"
basis; that is, without regard to ac-
crued interest
The issues in which dealings were
interrupted were:

SpeCl6l OiSpdLCU 10 ne SldI.
SCRANTON, Pa. Jan. 3-Continued
expansion of employe training pro-
grams aimed at building up supply
of skilled workers is an encouraging
reflection of industry's increasing en-
phasis upon planning for the long
term trend, without giving undue
weight to day-by- day developments, in
the opinion of Ralph E. Weeks, presi-
dent, International Correspondence
Schools
Shrinking demand for workers dur.
ing the depression left industry with
out the class of young apprentices that
would have taken the place of the
older skilled men as death and old age
depleted their ranks" says Mr.. Weeks.
I'm addition, increasing use of highly
complicated machinery has necessi-
tated greater proportion of trained
workers than was required before 1929.
During 1887 there was an increase
Of 254 per cent in the number of
employees enrolled in training pro-
grams through cooperative arrange
ments between the International Cor
respondence Schools and industrial
organizations"
