deeply felt in the Senate for many
years to come"

Virginia: 1T is great loss to the
Senate and the Nation"
Secretary Woodring: "He was
truly great statesman. His long
record of public service, including a
third of a century in the United
States Senate, won for him the af-
fection and admiration of the
American people"
Secretary of Commerce Hopkins:
Senator Borah's death takes from
the American scene one of its most
colorful figures. During life of
rugged independence in thought and
action, he gave much to his coun-

Lodging House Residents
Delay Census Completion

Because of the difficulty in locat-
ing occupants of lodging houses, an
nouncement of the 1910 population
of the District will not be made for
another week or more, Garnett
Brown, census area manager for the
District, revealed today. OF the
500-odd enumerators who began the
work of taking the census early in
April, approximately rs are still en-
gagged in cleanup" operations.
Washington has been the most
difficult city in the United States to
enumerate," Mr.. Brown said today.
In addition to the occupants of
lodging houses, commuters from
Baltimore, and residents of outlying
areas who work in Washington, also
have given the census takers a big
problem.
Though unwilling to make a def
mite estimate, Mr.. Brown predicted
a large increase over the 1890 figures,
which showed a population for the
District of approximately 486, 900.
AS soon as the rs enumerators
still at work complete their reports,
Mr.. Brown plans a final drive,
through the radio and press, to
secure the enumeration of persons
not counted by the census takers.

Vital Need

Special Gifts Group
Needs $40, 900 to
Fill Quote

World conditions, while making
the future of the National SYM
phony Orchestra extremely pre-
carious," also make its existence Of
vital Importance to the Nations
Capital, Thomas p Morgan, chair
man of the Special Gifts Commit
tee for the symphony. drive, said
last night.
"At the present time, the future
of the National Symphony Orches-
ira is extremely precarious," Mr..
Morgan declared. Many people
have responded to the orchestras
appeal for the funds necessary to
make next season and the Water
Gate concerts possible, but great
many people will have to contribute
before the $31, 900 needed to put the
drive over the top is raised.
$50 far as the Special Gifts Com
mittee is concerned, we have some
$4,000 to go before reaching our
quota. I hope that we can raise it,
but am not overly optimistic. With
world conditions as they are, the
larger contributors, to which this
committee confines itself exclusively,
are apparently unwilling to increase
the size of their subscriptions, and
it has been difficult to find new con-
tributors to make up the increase in
our quota.
Feels Need Is Greater.
II personally feel that because Of
these very same world conditions,
the existence of a symphony orches-
ira in this Nations Capital is of
vital importance. MY committee is
working hard to find, among those
who are in position to insure the
orchestras continued life, others
who share this opinion"
A more optimistic view of the out
come of the symphony campaign was
expressed by Mrs. Cloyd Heck Mar
vim, wife of the president of George
Washington University and chair
man of the Education Committee for

a very pleasant surprise to me. Last
Thursday we had raised 60j87 per

lieve we will reach the full amount

"In particular, the public schools,
which contribute through a COM
mittee headed by Mrs. Miriam B.
Hilton, has responded in magnlfi-
cent fashion. In the nine years that
this committee has been working for
the National Symphony it has raised
its annual subscription from Sll5
the first year to almost $4,000 last
year, and this year it hopes to bet
ter that. The public schools are we'll
aware of the great contribution that
the symphony makes to their cur
riculum through its students con-
certs, and the entire personnel, be-
ginning with Mrs. Henry Grattan

ative"
The results of the campaign will
be made known Wednesday at the
report luncheon, which will decide
whether Washington has contrib
uted enough money to maintain a

will be held at the Carlton Hotel,
headquarters for the symphony

Plan 10 Cut Street
Through Stimson
Estate Fought
Would Couse MuteriuI
Reduction in VoIue,
Commissioners Told

The controversy over elimination
of two proposed streets that would
call for substitute plans to route
another street through the million
dollar estate of former Secretary of
State Henry L. Stimson and "seri-
ously affect it's value" was aired
at the District Building today.
Former Chief Justice j. Harry
,Covington of District Court told
the Commissioners the value of the
estate, located at 5000 Cathedral
avenue NV, would decrease
materially if the street were cut
through it. Col Stimson has pro-
vaded that upon his and Mrs. Stim-.
sons death the property. will be
turned over to the Phillips Andover
Massachusetts, Academy, which
COL Stimson attended, to add to its
endowment fund.
The Thomas j. Fisher Co. has
asked the Commissioners to elimi-
nate plans to cut Woodley road
through to Thirty-first street and
to extend Thrity-first street to
Cathedral road to Garfield street
through the Stimson property close
to the mansion.
The proposed streets that would
be eliminated under the request
also cut through property but ac-
cording to Mr.. Covington, are not
as detrimental to the property's
value as would be the extension of
Woodley road to Garfield street,
which would bring traffic much
nearer to the house.
Elimination of the streets are
asked so that bordering tract
could be sold to Arthur c. Lord and
Edward E. Caldwell. A. A. Berle,
jr., Assistant Secretary of State,
livesat the Stimson home at present.
A protest against the change also
was received from A. D. Lewis,
brother of John L. Lewis, c. I. o.
head who lives on Garfield street.
Mr.. Lewis claimed that routing @of
thoroughfare traffic in front of his
home would detract from it's value.
