Representative Sam Stratton of New York promised to organize a committee of 1,000,000. Senator Mike Monroney of Oklahoma called the plans "inconceivable." William Walton, chairman of Washington's Fine Arts Commission, said: "We have come to the conclusion that to erase this great historic facade would be a national tragedy...
