PROVISION nnui nf imnTnil'n UrWAbHINIilUNa i i WILL IS URGED First President at Dedication of Victory Memorial Says World Needs to Follow Plea 'To Pay Debts First' Debtors Are Forgiven Debts. WASHINGTON, Nov. 1 1. Sneaking today at the layliis of the corner stone for the new victory memorial, Presi dent IlurillnK dedicated the. structure bk "a gatherins place ror Americans; where American minds briuK the ful fillment of one of the striking provis ions of the last will of (leon;e Wash ington which put aside u bequest for the founding of an Institution to des- semlnate learning, culture and a iro-j per understanding of right principles! In government." j The president's address was given largely to an analysis or the less well known attributes of the first president which, lio said, made Washington "on his private and personal side a very model of good citizenship." "It is an Impressive fact," Mr. Hard ing said, "worthy of our especial thought, that in the century and a half pinco Washington became tho leader, tho heart and soul, of Its struggle for Independence and unity, this nation has so many times found occasions to record devotion to the precepts which ho laid down for its guidance. So to day, after more than a century's delay, we are como to pay tribute to tho fore sight which first encouraged and en dowed the institution hen- established, nil institution which Is to b" alike n monument to those who sacrificed In a noble causo and a beacon to shed nfur the Unlit of useful knowledge and grateful understanding amoni; men. "It has seemed to me that our stud ies of Washington have been too much from those public sides from which we view him. I think it may be said that if on the one sldo Washington was the great personal force that wrenched apart tho two chief branches of the Knglish speaking race, he was on the other the greatest personal factor In saving this continent to Anglo-Saxon domination; and In doing that he con tributed very greatly to making pos sible tho wide-flung family of Knglish sneaking nations. If as leader of the revolting colonies in '70 thin time aid ed by Trance, ho tore them from tho grasp of England, It is equally true that two decades earlier ho had saved them from the possible domination, of Franco. "Hut among the documents which ntteut his wisdom there is one to which little study has been given. I moan his last will and testament. "Washington was not only a great nl.ll.... twt (I iri-o'lt ul II t.WtlOIII ' 111 WHS nuituu, ,. t, p.,.-.. ..... - also a man or great business affairs, and an eminent humanitarian. Provi dent and always methodical, he amassed a fortune, which has been rated by many as the greatest of his tiiuo in nil tho country. Hut plainly It was not his belief that society is best scrvod by the transmission from gen eration to generation of such Imposing aggregates of wealth. Therefore his will, after devising minor and largely sentimental bequests to many rela tives and friends, directed that the residuary oslato should bo divided Into 23 equal shares, to bo distributed among tho heirs whom he named. Washington ns . a model citizen shlnos forth with a peculiar lf,..i, lit List ti-slanient. Tho first nrnvlufrm In tllllf lltf! dl-lltS shall bC paid promptly. All tho world needs Ithe example of kept obligations. The i second item makes generous provision for his wife; anil then comes the direc tion at her death that all his slaves shall be given freedom. "Next follow devises of funds to aid education of poor or orphaned children and for the endowment of n 'university in a central part of the I'nited Stales.' Another specific bequest goes to Lib lerty Hall academy, now Washington 'and Lee university at Lexington, Va. I A list of debtors are forgiven their lili.bis To each of live nephews he igave one of his swords with 'an in junction not to unshcuth them for the purpose of shedding blood except it be for self defense or In defense of their country and its rights, and In the lat ter case to keep them unsheathed and prefer falling with, them in their hands to relinquishment thereof.' 'There Is no selection of words wherewith more eloquently to express the full duty and obligation of a good citizen to Ills country. Let us be Ibankrul that the spirit or that injunc tion has been borne In upon the nation he founded and animates it even to tills day. "As a charter or good citizenship and patriotic purposes tills little will and testament has been an inspiration many times to me. 1 commend its : thoughtful reading to whoever would emulate his example. Indeed as we are gathered here, representatives of a grateful and reverent nation, to sig nalize tho consummation of one more public beneflclence Inspired by him, I can think of nothing more appropriate than to urge the study of the farewell address and the last will and testa nient. as complements of each other Neither of them can be fully appreci ated without the other. The farewell address was the final adjuration of tin soldier, the statesman, the founder The will and testament was the last word of the Christian citizen, the lov ing husband, the devoted kinsmen and the prosperous man of business. "I am prone to believe they contain a chart by which the captains and nilodi of a world in distress, seeking harborage from battering storms am raging unknown deeps, might well lay the course of civilizal Ion ilseir. "Within a brlet' century and a half, tho American people under Washing ton's Inspiration have created a great nation, added to I lie dominion of Lib erty and of opportunity, and, wo may hope, iilfiuileil a helpful examplo to the world. It has not been accom plished without heavy sacrifices. At fearful cost we hail to wljio out an ambiguity In the constitution anil re establish union where disunion threat ened. In a conflict woll nigh as wide as tho world wo were called to draw tho sword for humanity and tho relief of oppression. Very recently wo have paused to speak tribute to thoso who sactil'lced 111 that struggle ror civiliza tion's preservation. Wo cannot too often or too earnestly repent that at tribute; and wo consecrato this in stitution as a memorial and a shrine. In reminder to nil the riituro of the serviccH, and tho sacrifices of our heroes of the world war."

Charges that the Morgan-tiuggeiilieini Inter ests were destroying independent de velopment in Alaska through discrim ination against public use of water tiausportalion facilities were made today by John 10.

The companies also discriminated In niton against public shipments of freight as in favor of consignments to the various .Morgan-Guggenheim properties, Mr. Ilallaine declared, lie added that halibut fishing by private interests had actually been driven out. because no cargo space for shipment of their product was allotted. The only sale the independent fishermen had was to one of the "companies hooked up with the Morgan-Guggenheim" group, ho said. The Seattle Chamber of Commerce was brought Into the hearings when Chairman iNew Inquired why. it had not taken steps to break what was new declared as tho monopoly.

Mvcenae was one of the most Impor- he-jtant cities of ancient Clreeks and was the fabled seat or Agamemnon, son ot the king or that city and most jiower rul ruler in Greece. It was Agamem non who the Greek historians credit with having led the Greek expedition against Troy. On his return tram that expedition he was slain. In the trag edy of Aeschylus, the scene of the murder is laid in the palace of Agam emnon at Argos, somo miles distant Irom Mycenae. The bath uncovered by British in vestigators is lined with red stucco and its sides aro composed of steps. The palace which was discovered in 1SS( has now been completely cleared; as the result of this season's efierts. One of the most interesting parts ot it is the great hall, or Megnron in which is a raised ceremonial circular hearth made o! painted stucco and having rioors or the samo material edged with slabs ol gypsum. The walls or tho hall wero covered with painted l'rescoe which suffered much in the fire which destroyed the I palace. Some fragments of these dec I orations were found. They represent ! elaborately dressed women with auburn hair. The domestic quarters ot the palace wore much destroyed but ill them wero found a row of jars and a shrine with the remains of painted stucco altars. m I mmm "The Conquest of Canaan" They wiy he is no (rood, nnd they 'drive him out of town.
