LINCOLN SHRINE FUND CAMPAIGN LAUNCHED HERE 150 Workers Start Drive to Raise City's Share in State Quota. One hundred and fifty workers today launched the Indianapolis campaign for the city’s share in the $1.2565,000 fund for the national shrine to be built at the grave of Nancy Hanks Lincoln, mother of Abraham Lincoln, in Spencer County, Indiana. A seven-day drive for funds is planned, but if the State's quota is not reached the drive will be continued until the necessary amount is subscribed. Workers have been divided into five regiments, and each regiment into five companies, composed of a captain and five workers each. Companies will report progress made each evening, except Wednesday, at the headquarters of the drive, the Chateau room of the Claypool. George Lundy is the Indianapolis director of the drive. Final plans for the launching of the campaign were completed at a dinner at the Chateau room Monday night. Two hundred fifty members of the campaign group, and the Lincoln Union, sponsors of the movement, attended the dinner and heard Dr. Lcuis A. Warren, director of the Lincoln Historical Research Foundation of the Lincoln National Life ; Insurance Company, Ft. Wayne. Dr. Warren described the life of i Lincoln in pioneer Indiana during ! the formative period of his youth.' Lincoln spent fourteen years, from ! his seventh to his twenty-first year, in the State. “Indiana rightfully may be ashamed because it has not taken previous steps to immortalize Lincoln and his mother,” Warren declared. “when other States in Ulrich he spent a part of his life, and many which he did not even sec, j have spent thousands of dollars in { memorializing him. Kentucky has j spent $1,000,000. Illinois nearly $2,000,000. and the Government has spent $3,000,000 in the national Lincoln shrine at Washington. “The money spent on these me- j morials is well worth while. They ; are a visible token of the worth of j character, of the high ideals of men | like Lincoln, which will make a deep impression on the thousands of young people who annually will visit them.”

PLAN MEMORIAL LIGHTS Take Steps for Illumination of War Shrine. Steps to obtain floodlighting of the new World War memorial shrine are being considered by Ed Hunter, Indianapolis Chamber cf Commerce secretary, it was learned tcday. Hunter advocated lighting the soldiers and sailors monument for a number of years. The memorial monument will be one cf the most beautiful and impressive structures of its kind in the wcrld, comparable only with the Lincoln memorial at Washington, D. C., Hunter said, and to light it at night would be a splendid advertisement for the city. Punter cxnects to take up the matter w'ith the memorial commission.
