The Washington herald., 1915-01-24
G. A. R. Head to Pay Visit.

David J. Palmer. of DC Mones. Iowa,
COmmandcrin-ch chief of the Grand Army
of the Republic. will be.in Washing
ton with his STAFF February >. He
comes to visit inc cncampmcnt Of the
Potomac Department. and also to learn
what preparations are being made to-
ward entertaining here the forty-uinth
national cnCampmcnt of the 6. A. T.
The Chamber of Commerce. the
Board of Trade, the Retail Merchants
Association and the District Commits
sioncrs some time ago united in an
invitation TO the national cncampment
at Detroit TO hold its next meeting at
Washington. This invitation was aC-
cepted by almost unanimous vote and
great anticipationS are entertained by
veterans throughout the country as to
that meeting The enormous success
of the reunion at Gettysburg has
whetted their appetite for coming to
the national encampment at Washing
ton on the fftieth anniversary of the
conclusion of peace.
All over the country veterans are
looking forward to coming to Wash
ington and marching down Pennsyl-
vania avenue, as they did fifty years
ago. Everything points TO a much
larger encampment than the Grand
Army has had for years, and probably
much greater encampment than ever
will be held again.
The men who will attend the ma
tlonal enCampmcnt are from every
Congressional district in the country
They are all politically alive. and they
have personal pride and feeling for
Washington such as no other class of
citizens has. They have a sense of
ownership in the city for whose preser-
walton they fought so long and so
hard Therefore. the best stroke of
policy considered in that light alone
for the citizens of Washington is to
meet the defamation of the city which
has been industriOusly spread abroad
by taking an active interest in the
forthcoming gathering. assisting to
give the visiting veterans an agree
able entertainment. and thus sending
back TO the country from $4,000 to
5000 people who will spread the fame
Of Washington ard its good people
through every Congressional district
All the men and women who come
will be missionaries for the National
Capital on them return home, and they
will make their influence felt on every
member OF Congress. There is no other
way in which the people OF Washing
ton so cffeCtiVeH can help the devel-
opment of the city and its just treat
ment by Congress than by aiding to
make 4 happy impression upon the
veterans and their wives and families
who are to attend the national en-
Campment here next fall
