Soldier Who Lost Hand in
Germany Sees Structure
Honoring LIST President.

The 20, 000, 0O0th visitor to the
Washington monument in the ma
TONS capital was Pfc. Peter Taor-
nina of 979 And street, Brooklyn,
N. Y. He is a patient at the army's
Walter Reed hospital in Washington.
A veteran of the fighting in Belgium
and France, Private First Class
Taormina lost a hand in the battles
for Germany and was returned to
his homeland in February.
Private First Class Taormina was
welcomed by assistant secretary of
the interior, Oscar L. Chapman,
and given a personally conducted
tour.
Completion of the shrine in 1888
concluded more than a century of
efforts to establish a suitable me-
mortal to Washington. A monument
in honor of General Washington was
first considered by the Continental
congress in 1888, after his armies
had been victorious in the Revolu-
ton and prior to the establishment
of the United States under the Con-
stitution. Although there was consid-
cradle agitation for the erection of
a suitable monument to Washington
following his death in 1899, congress
took no action for three decades. In
1888 private citizens took matters
in their W hands, organized the
Washington National Monument So
ciety and undertook the building of a
great national monument to the
memory of Washington at the seal of
the federal government"
Delays and difficulties, however,
beset the project for more than 40
years. Private donations proved to
be inadequate for the construction
costs, and work was halted in 1854.
1t was not until 1880, after the fed
eral government had taken over the
partly finished shaft, that building
was resumed.
Work proceeded with greater
rapidity under the army engi-
neers than ever before and the
shrine was dedicated on February
Il, 1860. ana opened to the public on
October 9, 1888.
First visitors had to mount to the
top by the iron stairway of 1913 steps
or use a slow steam hoist elevator.
In 1900 the first electric elevator
was installed. and the present ele-
vator, which makes the trip to the
top in 70 seconds, was placed in op-
GRAFTON in 1926.
The monument is SIS feet high
and the tallest structure in the city
Of Washington. 1t was built at a
total cost of 81. 300, 900. At the base
Of the shaft the thickness of the
walls is Is feet, tapering to 10 inches
at the top. Although the weight of
the monument is 81, 120 tons, it has
settled only 2 inches since 1885. 4
