President Wilson‘s Views

President Wilson, in a recent pri-

vate letter to the Rt. Rev. James E.

Freeman. Bishop-elect oi the Episco-
pal diocese of \Vashington, said:

I am glad to second you in
any way possible in accom-
plishing the completion of
the cathedral here.

Its completion will not
only add grimly to the
stately beauty of our national
capital, but will provide a
center from which I believe
under yous guidance, the

Giarles C. Glover. (lairman of the
Board of the Riggs National Bank
of ‘Washington. has been the leading
lay figure in the movement for a
great national cathedral. It was in
his home, where every Republican
president since McKinley has been a
frequent visitor. that the plans for
the Cathedral took definite shape.
The decision to form the corporation,
raisethemoneyandbuildthegrrat
edifice was made at a meeting there'
one memorable night in 1891. Since
then. Mr. Glover was instrumental in
securing the commanding site on
Mount St. Alban and in planning for

Speaking of the Beth‘s-hem Chapé
which had bee-i completed when he“,
visited the Cathedral in 19l4, Mr.
Frohman said: “Here indeed was at
morebeautifulciyptthanlhadseua
abroad and the most inspiring and"
satisfy ng example of church archi-

tecture in Almeria. The magnifi-
cence of the site of the Cathedral

thrilled me and while naming aboutl
thegroundalcouldseeinmymind'si
eye a neon of the Cathedral can-J
pl e same cathedral shown in

perfected.”

\Vhen completed, the VVashingtm
Cathedral will be larger than 5&4:
Paul': in London and notably

than \otre Dame in Paris. Iberi
will be standing room for 27.”)
sons and space for more than 5,611
seated.

Crest National Sgnifimee ,
The central arch will be 90 feet3
high and two side archu 50 feet with
the great central tower tismg' ' to at

ation, 400 feet above the Pom’
will cause it to dotmnat' e the had-
sape of “ashington much as tho ‘
Temple Plateau does that of Jet-r;
salon. L

Bishop-elect Freeman expect! M
Cathedral to play an important pet.
in the life of the great capital that it'
overlooks. “No other building '
Washington could be compared
it for spaciousness and dignity,“
said recently. “From its pulpit
be heard the greatest prophets, clasp:
ml and lay. that the world recog-
nises and honors. Vi ithin its wallsi
should be assembled from time so
time gatherings tint have to rd
the most momentous issues, ‘ 4
and internatioml. Ultimately "
