ART MYSTERY IS

suicide following an alleged swim

ened today by vague references to
the commander of Germany's World
War freight-carrying submarine
Deutschland, and to a $4,000, 900

The former U-boat commander,
Gerald Eckelmann, was said to have
come to this country last May with
a story that Chang Kai-Shek,

was in dire need Of funds for the
war against Japan and that he was
offering the art treasure for sale.
Eckelmann was said to be Chiangs
personal adviser.

evtntually was returned to the Of
ficial society, but in 1860 their funds
became exhausted; the Civil War
came; and for sixteen years the
monument stood incomplete and
abandoned.
Dedicated February II, 1885
On August 2, 1876, Congress finally
appropriated $4,000 to complete
the monument, and government
engineers supervised the work. The
capstone was finally set during a
bowling gale on December 6, 1884,
and the, tallest piece of masonry

LEUTZE NOT A
LITERAL ARTIST
Had literalness worried the ar
list, he would hardly have chosen
this page Of American history at all.
For 1t was a dark and stormy night
when the bold General Washington
pushed out for the Jersey shore. So
fierce were sleet and wind that two
other armies, which had intended to
cross with him, stayed back IN the
Pennsylvania bank. An exact por-
trait Of this scene would be merely
q smear Of black paint.
But, errors or no, Americans
have taken this heroic picture to
their hearts. Proof Of this, If it
were needed, was the outburst
which greeted Its removal several
years ago from the walls of New
York's Metropolitan Museum of Art,
where 1t had hung since 1897.
By popular demand, from
Maine to California, Washington
Crossing the Delaware" was re-
hung. Today, errors and all, it is

Gated to the memory Of George
Washington, after q strange history.
Although no American had a greater
claim to a public monument than
the General of the Nations VIC
torious Armies in the Revolutionary
War, its first president. and veri-
tably the Father Of his Country, no
monument to anyone has been
harder TO- get built. Besides the
engineering difficulties of actual
construction, which were many, the
monument proposal experienced
Congressional indifference, financial
embarrassment, religious intolerance,
and the project was even stolen"
during the los years that elapsed be-
tween its inception and completion.

u. s. PLAYS GOOD
NEIGHBOR" ON CANAL JOB

q 8. army engineers are survey
ing for canal across Nicaragua
but it's not that big second
Panama" that has been so much
talked-of. Instead, it's for a mod
est barge canal which the Nicara-
guam government hopes to build.
Half a dozen officers and some
enlisted men have been at work
since last November. Present
plans are for a waterway via the
San Juan river from the Allan
tic to Lake Nicaragua, with pos
sibly a short ditch from the west
ern side Of the lake to the Pacific.
When President Somoza of
Nicaragua was in Washington a
year ago he mentioned the prof.
ect to President Roosevelt and
asked for q Lift. .....
Good-neighborly, the president
agreed to have the army do the
surveying. It doesn't cost much
and. If the U. S. ever does 60
ahead with the big canal project
(for which treaty rights exist, and
for which comprehensive surveys
we're made back in 1931) the barge
canal which the Nicaraguans are
going to build will be helpful.

Inspired by faith that never fades
And guards the beauty that 1t gives.

No creature fashioned by will
Obscured in winters fretful wind 80.
You are our mighty leader still.
We reverence your place of birth.
Your stately mien and honest worth;
Your bravery and generous heart
Have brought new vision to the earth.
Your hand points to our destiny 80.

Whose rhythmic hoofs are ringing now
To call old comrades to their sire.
And dreams live on beneath nfeiS clay,
For silence's thought makes you our choice,
Like freemen marching in the night
Who know the comfort Of your voice.

Along the path where nations sing
Their songs Of war for US to hear.

BUMP IS FORECAST;
HOW HARD Is QUESTION

Economists in the commerce de-
partment figure business Is going to
take a sharp bump sometime in
the near future. They don't know
how far 1t will fall or how soon it
will bounce back up; have a bunch
that it will come back pretty soon
on account Of war-born expansion
Of export trade.
Meanwhile, here's the way they
figure 1t:
The fall boom was pretty much
an inventory boom. Inventories
are still piling up, though new
orders are falling Of. The index
Of industrial production is drop
ping fast. Prices Of industrial raw
materials, which went up sharply
when the war startde, have been
going down since mid-December.
Cessation Of inventory accumula-
ton will mean q stiff business
drop.
Nevertheless, they don't see
the situation as parallel TO 1887,
when there was crash after an
inventory boom.
For one thing, they say, there
has not been a general rise In
wage rates, as there was during
the 1936-37 boom; on the con-
trary, wage costs per unit have
declined. Further, the pending
drop in government spending win
probably not be as heavy as 1t
was In 1887. Lastly, many indus
trialists may carry larger inven-
tories in expectation Of war de.
