PRE OTOL

An eternal light in the brazier atop the tall column of the peace monument pictured above, following a dedication on July 31 by President Roosevelt, will shine down on the once-bloody field of Gettysburg. There, after 75 years, veterans of the Union ahd Confederate armies will gather in friendly reunion where once was fought the greatest battle of the Civil War. Seven tent cities, like that shown at right, have been erected for between 2000 and 3000 veterans who will attend, and for some of the visitors from all over the nation The commemorative ceremonies will last nine days.

Mussolinian Column Will Be Third in Rome, Also Tallest.

ROME, June 24 (U. P) —In emu- | lation of the Roman emperors Tra- | jan and Marcus Aurelius, Premier Benito Mussolini is having a huge column, the third of its kind, erected in Rome. The shaft, somewhat larger and

taller than the other two, will em- |

Vast Dam Project to Replace | Sites of 6 Villages in Missouri ECE

GREENVILLE, Mo. June 24 (U. P.).—This 123-yvear-old Ozark logging center and five other Wayne County villages are experiencing

| the feelings of a man sentenced to | death.

The Federal government has filed the first of a series of condemnation suits seeking to obtain title to this county seat town, Wappapello, Chaonia, Taskee Station, Shook and and 23,000 acres of land will be inundated when the $6.000,000 Wappapello flood control project is completed two years from now. Natives, who have heard talk of such a dam for 30 years, at first refused to believe that they actually would have to move, but they are now reported resighed to their fate. Between 3000 and 4000 resi-

The former, origin of the Roman power, will be reproduced | on the pedestal, and the latter, to which the Mussolinian empire is connected, will crown the capital. The Roman tradition will be | closely adhered to in the new monument as far as the quality of the | materials, the ornamental themes | — and the sculptural representation of | the figures are concerned. problems of perspectivee, solved by the Roman sculptors, but which are incompatible with mod- | ern criteria, are being examined. Too much respect for perspeetive would make the boring of holes into the shaft necessary, and this would cause the monument to look | pock-marked. The question of] eliminating the necescity of this boring is being studied. To Top Other Shafts |

The spiral-like band which will run around the column and which will contain the reliefsculptures will be 5 feet wide number of human, animal and mechanical figures which will sculptured inside the band has not yet been decided. The designer of the monument is Carlo Fontana, a renowned sculptor and a descendant of the famous architect, Domenico Fontana, who was the faithful executor of Sixtus the Fifth's grandoise plan for the embellishment of Rome during the five years of his pontificate. It was the earlier Fontana who restored the Aurelian shaft and built a new pedestal for it. By Mussolini’ orders no statue will surmount the column. quoted as saying: on the top but just a belvedere' Posterity, however, may have a different opinion and probably decide that a statue of would well fit there.
