San Franciscans provided memorial in the form
of two monumental buildings as integral parts
of the finest civic center in the Western Henri
sphere. One of the structures is the Veterans
Building, given over exclusively to organizations
of men who have fought wars. The other
unit matching it INTELLECTUALLY is the San Fran
cisco Opera House.
Now. and for some years past, having the
facilities and the will, San Francscans have their
annual season of grand opera in winter and light
opera in the summer months. Hundreds of peo-
pie from Puget Sound time their visits to the
Bay region to coincide with these cultural events.

"A committee of outstanding
Norwegians headed by Supreme
Court Chief Justice Paul Berg and
including Norway's Ambassador to
the United States Wilhelm Nor
genstierne has issued an appeal 70,

Franklin D. Roosevelt According
to present plans the memorial Will
be in the form of a monument
sculptured by a Norwegian artist
to be chosen by the committee,
and will be erected in place of
honor in Norway's capital.
The appeal which has been mi
tiated by leading Norwegian bust

gives expression to Norways high
regard for the late President: The

were those for which he fought
and which he 50 aptly consolidated

for his efforts and for the friend
ship which he held for Norway
During recent weeks the exact
form of the memorial has been
under discussion, with some COM
ments indicating dissatisfaction
with a mere statue. There is a
significant group which contends
that as Franklin Roosevelt's life
work is today a living reality it
should be accorded a living mem
orial. One writer suggests; Let
us erect an artistic and modern
housing complex in the nations
capital complete with the most ad-
