Plans for the erection of a shrine at Washington symbolizing the contributions to America of Protestant, Catholic and Jewish heroes, moved a step near realization today when United States Senator Scott W. Lucas announced that he would present a resolution in the United States Senate sponsoring the project.
Senator Lucas’ announcement was contained in a letter replying to a request by Barned Hodes, Corporation Counsel and Go-Chairman of the Patriotic Foundation of Chicago. In his reply, Sen. Lucas declared that he would present a resolution in the United States Senate authorizing the creation of a special commission to select a site for the proposed shrine and to make other arrangements necessary in connection with the project.
