Mrs, ', Helen Plane, honorary pr“'_
ident of Atlanta Chapter, U. D. C,
s which she founded, and president of
the Stone Mountain Confederate Me
morial Association, "has resumed her
activities in carrying on the work of
the Stone Mountain monument to be
carved on the side of the granite sur
face, which is 1,000 feet high, and
several thousand feet at the base,
which will be a tribute to the endur
ing fame of the heroes of the Con
federacy. ‘ '
This work was begun three years
ago, and Gatzum Borglum, the sculp
ter, was empowered to proceed wlg\
the work of embellishing the surface
of the mountain on the steep side
with a wonderful picture of the three
Confederate generals, Lee, Jucksonl
and Johnston, together with a bar re- |
lief picture of the advancing Army,
of the South, which is to trail off into
the distance with lesser figures.
For this purpose thousauds of dol
lars were pledged, but the recent
,world war put a {emporary stop to
the work. The proposition has been
made that the monument work be
resumed, but that it extend into a
bigger and m%xl'e wonderful monu
ment by including the Allied army in
the development, of the memodial,
merging the valor of the entire
American army, Confederate and Al
lied, into one magnificent memorial,
which will stand out to the glory of
cur soldiers for all time,
Mrs. Plane at a meeting of the
17, D. C. Thursday afternoon said that
the mountaih had been ziven to the
Daughters of the Confederacy by the
Venable estate through Sam Venable,
the executor, for the sole purpose of
paying honor to the dead heroes of
the war of the sixties. And that un-
Jess the Daughters of the Confederacy
rally to the work of preserving the
mountain it would havs to be re
turned to the Venable estate. She
offered as a solution to the sugges-\
tion that the Allied army be included
in the memorial, that part of the
granite be reserved for the Ykmed;
army, as big and splendid a part a%
the Daughters of the Confederacy!
held, on whigh could be inscribed “To
the Valor of American Heroes in the
£llied Army.” |
It was suggested that if the Jn-|
seription could read “In Memory of
All the Men Who Fought for Democ
racy and Peace” the memorial would
be of greater importance. |
Mrs. Plane took up the work of
making a monument to the heroes of

the South'who valiantly fought in
the war of the slxtieg, after the Hon,
William Terrell had conceived the
idea of making such a monument on
Stone Mountain. Atlanta Chapter,
U. D. C,, under the administration of
Mrs. T. T. Stevens, president at that
time, indorsed the movement, and the
work was projected, :
The splendid editorial which ap
reared in The Sunday American at
the time the project was started had
’much to do v&mh bringing the work
bLefore the entire world, and it is to
be hoped that the Daughters of the
Confederacy will go on with the work
as originally planned, incorporating
the idea of the Allied army in the
wonderful monument, which, if com
pleted, will be the most wonderful
monument in the world.
