Will These Famous
Landmarks Be Saved?
BY Jane Eads
Associated Press STAFF Writer.

Washingtonians protested en- masse
over that proposed addition to the White
House until the plan finally received
the Senate's coup de grace last Thurs
day. but now they are getting ready to
kick up fuss about proposal to tear
down the historic, century-old building
across the Avenue to make way for
bigger State Department.
These include the house to which
Comomdore Stephen Decatur took his
bride in 1918, Blair House, where Uncle
Sam puts up his top-ranking guests, and
Blair-Lee House, where other guests
stay.
OF course, President Truman's pro-
posed remodeling job on the White
House whipped up the great fury.
The plan originally called for l6 Of
fees and an auditorium to seat 1854 on
the west side of the mansion. 1t also
called for installation Of cafeteria and
conversion of part of the east wing into
a museum.
And there had beeen much speech
making In Congress, campaigning by
the newspapers and lots of letter writing

Gilbert D. Clarke, chairman Of the
commission, replied:
1--WE will stand pat. We approved
the plans. Why should we change now,
Just because people are kicking about It."
The "about-face" charge was based
on the fact that the scommission in
1902 said that "the historic White
House cannot be enlarged without de-
stroying its individuality which has
endeared the edifice to the American
people"
Meanwhile air drills and hammers
were adding to the hum. Sections Of
the fences on the west end OF the
grounds and windows from the west
wing, where first actual construction
was to begin, were removed.
Construction Halted
Then bill was passed In the House
to reallocate White House funds voted
in December. Construction was halted.
The Senate has now backed UP the
House in denying funds for the $780,
900 addition.
Congress provided for doubling the
size Of the west wing in 1909. In 1929
the basement was made into office
space. A third enlargement came in
1884. President Roosevelt then said
that the next step would be to transfer

Representative Ralph H. Daughton

as ridiculous"

Price Cutters
The association is opposed to the prac-
tice, holding that it is unfair to corner
stores which depend entirely on income
from sale of tobacco and allied lines.
1t said most price-cutters are chains or
retailers who deal mainly in other mer-
chandiSe
Other trade circles said a majority of
the wartime newcomers in cigarette
making have tough pickings now.s
During the cigarette shortage period
these brands appeared at prices rang
ing from 18 to % cents. A good number
now are selling for 10 cents pack as
storekeepers seek to clear their shelves.
Many of these companies make other
tobacco products and they will try to
recoup what they can. Their cigarette
making machinery probably can be sold
to bigger concerns because new equip
ment is needed but has not yet become
available in quantity.
Meanwhile, slump in hurley tobacco
prices moved the Kentucky House of
Representatives to adopt resolution
saying that unless something was done
about it "bloodshed and violence" may
result.
The legislators also asked the De-
- t,,u1
whether there was collusion among to-
bacco companies to hammer down prices,
while Representative Chelf of Ken
lucky charged the big four" manufac-
turers with making "a deliberate and
premeditated attempt to 'snitch' the
present tobacco crop from our farmers"
The Kentucky statewide price average
on January 10 was S37.82 hundred
pounds against high of s48,13 on De-
cember 8, the opening day of the season.
The United States Senate Agriculture
Committee acted by approving unani-

south wings, left by his predecessor, in
cluding restoration Of the Senate and
House Of Representatives chambers and
other parts Of the building.
Walter and Clark
Thomas U. Walter, who took office in
1851, followed the acceptance of his
plans for the extension of the Capitol,
remained in office until 1865, during
which time he designed and erected the
Capitol extension as well as the cast
iron dome of the building, and designed
other public buildings in Washington.
Edward Clark served as architect
from 1865 to 1902 and his work con-
sisted mainly in supervising certain in
completed details left by his predecessor.
Mr.. Clark was followed by Elliott Woods
who served from 1902 and 1928, when he
succeeded David Lynn, who, like his
precedessor, came up from the ranks,
and was appointed to his present posi-
ton by President Calvin Coolidge, Au-
gust %, 1923.
He first entered the architects office
July l, 1901, and when Mr.. Woods be-
came the architect in 1902 Mr.. Lynn be-
came his understudy, and succeeded
him when he died May %, 1923, becom-
ing the seventh architect Of the Capitol.
Incidentally, Mr.. Lynn is one of the
most capable and efficient men in pub
lie office. and one Of the most delightful
of men to meet.
Perhaps one of the most interesting
things in the construction of the Capi-
tol is the massive dome surmounted by
the Statute of Freedom. Prior to the
commencing of the present cast iron
dome in 1856, the old wooden dome
which had remained on the building for
years and until removed in 1856. The
present dome was designed by. Thomas
U. Walter and erected under his super
vision and completed in 1865.
The Statue of Freedom, which is the
correct name for this symbol Of liberty,
was designed and executed by the sculp-
tor, Thomas Crawford, who was born in
1914 and went to Rome in 1885 to
study art and spent much of his life in
Italy,.
OF this celebrated statue there are
many interesting stories. especially the
part taken in its designing by Jefferson
Davis, who, as Secretary Of War, was
required to give his approval to the
model, which was submitted to him by
way OF photographs, since the work was
done abroad. Apparently Mr.. Davis was
not altogether satisfied with the model
in all respects, and SO we find him writ
ing the sculptor:

1t doesn't look, however, as though
that building, now the State Depart
ment, is itself adequate to house these
offices.
Legislation calling for State De-
partment annex building to cost up to
SIS, 900 is already up before Con-
gress. Hearings have been completed
before the House Committee on Public
Buildings and Grounds, but the COM
mittee has yet to report a recommended
ton.
1t has been proposed that the annex
be built on the block overlooking the
State Department to the south and La
fayette Square to the east. This is the
block dominated by the Decatur, Blair
and Blair-Lee Houses Washingtonians
are now up in arms over the proposal
to destroy these old landmarks.

Decatur House, which stands at the
northwest corner of Lafayette Square,

efforts to destroy it eight years ago.
Washingtonians who wanted to save the
house as a museum formed Save
