Economy
For Hugo Stinnes, crafty, potent, indurate,--a short while "All-Highest" of Germany--was planned a mausoleum to rival Les Invalides. Like the upstart Napoleon, he should lie in a marble crypt deep under a marble dome. In place of WAGRAM, JENA, AUSTERLITZ, PYRENEES, etc., there should be carved COAL, IRON, RAILROADS, NEWSPAPERS, etc. And all should be suffused by pale blue, pale yellow lights. -
The Stinnes heirs had chosen the architect -- one Brantzky of Cologne. They had named the sum--$500,000.
Last week they instructed Brantzky to postpone all work indefinitely. They are forced to economize.
