TROOPS IN THE PARADE
Continued From First Page.

formed Chairman Bell that he estimated
the attendance of such clubs at about
$4,000, SO that il this estimate be real
lied, there will be parade of at least
10000, exclusive of the local military
and civic, and outside civic organizations.
Mr.. Norris, of the special commit tee, ap-
pointed to secure authority from Congress
for the Illumination of public buildings and
grounds, stated that at the next meeting
OF the executive committee his committee
would be able to make report Mr.. Nor ris
intimated that the report would be favor
able.
This special committee is now one of the
most important at work. As the feature
of the arches has been eliminated the nber-
ality of the government as to the decora-
tion and Illumination of its buildings is
an interesting consideration. The Capitol,
the Treasury, and the new Postoffice, are
splendid bases for lighting and decora-
tion.
1t is understood by the executive COM
mittee that the government will not per-
NIT its buildings to be in charge OF other
than its own agents. With the handsome
lighting of these, and the general illumina-
tion of private and business houses on
Pennsylvania avenue the effect will only
be limited by the enthusiasm and city pride
OF the Inhabitants.
The committee on street decoration has
not yet asked for an appropriation 1t is
!! now likely that larger sum than was
heretofore possible can be appropriated, as
the large expense of the arches has been
saved.
1t was stated yesterday that the amount
| given the committee on decorations of the
ballroom was $4,000, but out of this sum
| the electric light bill is to be paid. This
was raise of $500 from the amount
| first aprortioned by the executive com
mittee, that aprortionme ent being, how
! ever, only a suggestion.
