Mra, Johnson, however, cele
brated her "100th birthday anni

noes of the past few years have
been a blow to her hopes. Stand
ing in tne way of the plan Is the
fact that the house she had lived
and worked In so long was bought
10 years ago by a Washington
merchant who Mrs. Johnson says
snows no inclination to resell.
Saved from Eviction
Just before the house was sold,
and she faced eviction proceed
ings, Mrs. Johnson In a mighty
huff broke or marred many of
tne worm oi sculpture on which
she had spent much of her life.
She said she did this rather than
have the works put In storage.
Her home was saved temporarily

Sol Bloom (D-NY). Her friend.
Mrs. Meta Grace Keebler, with
whom she now lives, says she
hopes people will forget the Inci
dent though It caused a terrific
furore at the time. 'They do not
understand Mrs. Johnson's mo
tives in what she did," she ex
plains. "It was her desolate cry
against the fact that she had
worked and done so much for hu
manity, and humanity was allow
ing her to be forgotten and
evicted from her home."
The statue of the three suf
frage leaders In the Capitol was
purchased some years ago by the
National Woman's Party. It was
presented to the government
after what Mrs. Johnson termed
much wrangling because those
men didn't want a statue of suf
frage leaders In the capltol."
'Those men," Mrs. Johnson add
ed, "Just don't want any women
marble or real up there 'put
tering around. Men can be
trusted Just so far. Bevond a cer
tain point watch out. But God
made them that way, so they're
not to be blamed." Mrs. Johnson
is now spending her davs catalog
ing all her manuscripts and
memoirs. "I am satisfied that I
have done the best I could. I have
always aimed at that motto: Per-
lectlon at any price, she said.
