J.. S. TAKES OVER
3 APARTMENTS
FOR WAR OFFICES

A crisis in Washington's apartment
situation became apparent today when
announcement was made that the
United States Government had com
Wandered three entire apartment
buildings for the housing of war
workers.
The three houses taken over by the
Government are the Maury, at Eight
zenith and C streets northwest; the
Monroe Courts, recently completed at
Thirteenth and NJ streets northwest,
and the Premier. at us Eighteenth
street northwest.
The Premier will be used by the
Medical Department of the army, the
Monroe Courts. it is announced, has
been Communicated by the signal
corps OF the army. No announcement
was made as to what branch OF the
service will occupy the Maury. All
are large apartment houses, averaging
form thirty to nifty apartments.
Rapid Survey of Situation.
At the same time. it was learned
that the Government was making a
rapid >survey of the realty situation,
particularly in the downtown section,
and it was the belief of realty deal
ers that there might now be dozen
new apartments below l street avail
able for. tenants by Christmas.
The action of the Government
makes critical an already badly
strained situation. Washington's
apartment facilities were taxed to
the utmost when thousands OF Gov
eminent workers, called to Washing
ton by the war, began filling up the
vacant locations during the summer.
In all parts of the northwest new
apartments are being rushed to COM
pletion, in an effort to meet the de-
mand.
More Communicating To Come.
Reports were plentiful in realty
circles today that a number OF other
apartment houses will be taken over
within a few weeks. Among those
mentioned as marked by the Govern
ment for its own use were three
apartments at Fifteenth and L streets
though the agents of these
buildings said that they had not yet
been approached.
In the case of the Premier apart
ment house, the first floor tenants
were given a week to vacate, though
those on the upper floors were al
lowed to stay until October l. The
tenants in the Maury were given un-
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1917-09-21

til October /. They were given notice
two months ago.
In a number of Instances, the ten
ants OF these buildings have been
forced TO move into houses, owing to
the extraordinary demand for apart
ments. Realty agents are regulating
all tenants IN uptown apartment
houses to give notice OF their inten-
tion to renew leases or vacate apart
ments, and in many cases, tenants
are unable to locate new places ana
are remaining in apartments that are
unsatisfactory.
The extraordinary demand for
apartments in Mt. Pleasant has re-
suited in a mad scramble Of tenants
evicted downtown to find new locA-
lions. The enrolment OF school
children in the Mt. Pleasant schools
is unusually heavy this year, which
Is regarded as another indication OF
the increasing movement Of the popu-
lation to that section.

Reed 'bone dry law also applies to
the District, and this will prevent
anybody bringing a bottle of whiskey
into the District from Baltimore or
elsewhere.
Reed Law searea.
Now, the truth OF it is that the
Reed law scarss more OF the boys"
into beforehand purchases than al
most any other reason. They had
'doped IL out" that when their re-
serve supplies ran low they would
be able to 20 over to Baltimore and
purchase all the supplies they needed.
The Anti-Saloon League will test
out the application OF the Reed law
Just as soon as possible after No
vember l, because officials of the
organization confidently believe that
1t will apply. This law makes IL I'M
lawful to ship or take into dry"
States whiskey for private consump-
ton or distribution.
For once the views of the Anti
Saloon League and whiskey people
are almost in accord. Many whiskey
merchants today believe that the Dis
triet will eventually become bone
dry" although II will take a good
many months before the fight can
be finished in the courts.
VIII Wear Read to Baltimore.
So there will be many gallons OF
Baltimore before the final decision OF
handed down.
The Anti-SAloon League limited to-
day that IL the boys" stock UP too
hN0 Nrf1r- 1f1nNl
become amenable to portions OF the
District prohibition law against dis
tribution.
There is great sadness among the
stocking up" lads, though, over the
fact that they can not keep supplies
in their offices and places Of business,
although permitted to do SO in, their
homes.
The business man who had been ac-
customed to taking one OF his best
customers or a close friend around
the corner for . nip" will not be able
to keep the nip" around his office,
and the corner place will no longer
be there.
MANY men who may now be laying
in supplies will forget all about wills
key after awhile, said Mr.. Shoe
maker.
They would not walk a square to
get bottle or a drink. That has been
demonstrated in many States.
'In Virginia, when the law permit
ted the purchase OF one quart each
month for private use, the purchase
gradually dEindled. simply because men
got away from the habit of rum and
no longer cared about having II
around. II will be the same way here
as things settle down, and in a few
years the law will be almost unani-
mously declared q good one"

bear Il representation OF the Aneri-

Complaints were registered today
with school officials that pen wip-
ers bearing an American flag device
were being sold to school children
along with old tablets which also
bore pictures OF the flag.
The use Of American nag pen WHIP

as q violation OF the flag dissertation

By BILL PRICE.


Thousands of washington's prudent
citizens are not going dry Novem-
Der /, when the prohibition law takes
effect here. Judging from reports
gathered in many directions.
Providing for the provetbial rainy
day has changed to provision for dry
days.
And besides these washingtonians
q large number OF Senators and Con-
gressmen are not unmindful OF the
situation. One distinguished states
man who voted to. make the District
dry" has invested $4,000 in choice
brands of wet goods. which have
been carefully stored in the cellar OF
his home in this city.

All of which means, II statements
are true, that thousands Of gallons OF
WHISTLES and wines are being laid
away In cellars and hooks and cram

Many times a day you meet these
thoughtful "old birds" and they as
cure you that you need have no ap-
prehension their lips will become
parched for some months after No

merchants and the saloonkeepers and

Business, they will tell you, has never
been SO active.
Shoemaker IL Doubtful.
Then talk to A z. Shoemaker, sec
rotary Of the District Anti-saloon
League, and he will tell you that his
organization hears many reports
about stocking up" but does not be-
Heve that there is much OF this being
done.
"Of course there may be a little
of It," he told The Times, "but the
majority Of men who have drank &C.
casionally have about come to the
conclusion that the law Is a good one,
and that they will recognize 1t by
being ready to cease drinking with
the advent OF the new law"
So sure are the prohibition forces
about this and other things that they
are preparing for q big celebration,
at which the W. o. O.'s will smile and
wink knowingly.
Reasons for stocking UP.S
The stocking up lie due to three
things, the wholesale whiskey and
retail saloon men say:
Washington will be dry in forty
days.
The war revenue bill, soon to be-
come law, will impose 4 tax of S3.2O
per gallon on booze. instead of the
S1.I0 that now exists, shooting booze
rates up to where they will be great
