PLANNING FOR
MEMORIALS TO
PATRIOTIC MAN
The following statement relative to
the purposes and aims of the Roose
velt Memorial Association is present
ed to the readers of the Daily Times
by George C. Hazelet, chairman of
i>
the organization for Alaska:
“Three days after the death of Col
onel Roosevelt, January 6, 1919, at a
meeting held in Chicago, preliminary
steps were taken to form the Roose
velt Memorial Association. Colonel
Boyce Thompson was made chairman
and leading men and women from
each state were appointed members
of the executive committee. This
executive committee will become the
trustee of the association.
“The object of the association is
to provide memorials in accordance
with the plans of the national com
mittee, which will include the erec
tion of a suitable and adequate mon
umental memorial in Washington;
acquiring, development and mainte
nance of a park in the town of Oyster
Bay, which will ultimately include
Sagamore Hill, to be preserved like
Mount Vernon and Abraham Lincoln’s
home at Springfield.
“To attain these objects, a cam
paign to raise a minimum of $10,000,
000 from millions of subscribers will
be conducted during the week of Oc
tober 20 to 27.
“It was the intention from the in
ception to remove all partisanship
from the Rosevelt Memorial Associa
tion, and men and women of all par
ties are joining in the movement.
“Theodore Roosevelt is removed
from the field of partisan politics.
His memory is the common heritage
of all Americans. Men and women
of all parties have an equal right to
do him honor, and the Roosevelt
Memorial Association will be conduct
ed in a manner to permit all to exer
cise that right without reservation
or embarrassment.
“America would honor Roosevelt
the man in order that his manly qual
ities may be fused into the life and
spirit of American youth. Courage,
energy, unselfish service, love of
country, honor and square dealing,
righteousness, wisdom, fearless fight
ing—it is to these qualities which
one man has been able to embody
1 £>!!lli!!!lill!:ill!lll!IIIIIII[!!li!ll|]lllt!lll!IIIIIIIt!!P]llt!llf!IHIil!lll!l!ll!ll!!l!ll!ill!iiill!llll»
that we seek to erect a permanent
memorial. All citizens, regardless of
party, who believe that the memory
of such a man will inspire the future
generations of America, are earnestly
invited to assist by their energy and
gifts.
“The conduct of the campaign dur
ing the week of October 20-27 will be
under the direct supervision of Col
onel Thompson, assisted by the exec
utive committee. Working under him
will be the state campaign organiza
tions in each state of the Union, the
District of Columbia, the territory of
Alaska, and the insular possessions.
“The organization in Alaska is
headed by George C. Hazelet of Cor
dova, who has appointed the follow
ing chairmen for each of the four
judicial divisions:
First division—J. R. Willis of Ju
neau.
“Second division—C. J. Lomen of
Nome.
“Third division—Frank H. Foster
of Cordova.
“fourth division—Thos. Marquam
of Fairbanks.
“The First Bank of Cordova has
been made the depository for all
funds collected in the territory, which
will be remitted at once to the na
tional treasurer, Albert H. Wiggin of
the Chase National Bank of New
York.
“The chairmen for the different di
visions in Alaska will begin to or
ganize at once to the end that every
man, woman and child in the territory
may have an opportunity to voluntar
ily express their remembrance of the
great American who so nobly served
his country and people.
“Each citizen who participates in
erecting this memorial will be guid
ed to a finer lfe, to a more unselfish
devotion to his country’s good.”
