No ExOrbitant Hotel Rates

Who Attend National En-
campment.
Card Index System Tabulates
Inquiries for Rooms to Ac-
commodate Comforts of
Former Warriors.

WASHINGTON, July 13.-Elaborate
here for the accommodation of 10000
G. A. r. veterans and their friends
who will attend the forty-ninth annual
encampment Of the organization to be
held in this city from September 81
to October 2.
- A special citizens subcommittee has
been appointed to look out for this one
feature, and as q result of the good
work that has already been done and
is now under way there will be no ex-
orbitant rates charged In either ho-
tells or boarding houses. AS part OF
their work this committee advertised
in all of the daily newspapers OF this
city asking boarding house proprietors
and those who wished to rent to list
with them at their headquarters at the
Chamber of Commerce all OF the data
concerning their rooms.
Arrange Information.
This information consists OF address
es and telephone numbers, prices for
rooms with and without meals, with
and without baths, and in fact every
detail which might be asked by any
one intending to rent rooms. This in
formation is tabulated and put into a
card index system. Several persons
are at work on this continually and it
is said that hundreds are bringing in
this information.
1t is said at the headquarters that
good comfortable rooms Will be avail
able for the veterans at anywhere
from so cents per day up, without high
room rent. Hundreds of letters are be-
ing received daily by the chairman OF
this committee asking about the rooms
and all that is necessary to do is to
look at the card index system and one
is able to tell just what will suit the
inquiring persons.
Reservations Made.
Reservations have been made for
scores of delegations, many of whom
wish to be together, as well as for
many individuals. 1t has been part of
the duty of the committee to interview
the hotel managers and restaurant
proprietors and call their especial at

tention to the fact that both room and
food prices shall be normal. This has
been promised and it is thought by
the committee that no trouble will be
experienced along these lines.
In addition to these accommodations
$11 900 was appropriated by Congress
just before the adjournment for the
erection of public comfort stations and
like incidental expenses. This work
will be in charge Of Major Raymond
w. Pullman, Superintendent OF Police
Of Washington. The Woman's Relief
Corps is to be in charge Of the infor-
nation booths and they will be ably
assisted by the Boy Scouts.

and bought a hook and line then he

But the fish had no intention OF biting

was. and found an outing suit OF khaki,
which he had been wishing for. and

After breakfast a large basket was
