LISTERS written In bitter vein
come 10 me from women war work
trS who ind that tWo-thIrds Of the
rooms for rent In Washington are
for men only This in the facs
Of the fact that two-thirds Of the
war workers coming here daily are
women. The proportion Of accom-
modations u twisted.
This means that every night
women who seek the hospitality Of
the National Capital actually sleep
In the Union Station, sitting mp on
those straight and uncomfortable
seats. II also means that some
women have slept in the parks. This
statement 10 not an exaggeration.
IL Is a conservative way Of telling
the truth about a very serious situ-
alton In Washington
Now what Is the remedy!
The answer Is plain. to my way
Of thinking. Either the people OF
Washington WILL take in the
women who come here to work, or
the President will declare Wash
ington a war zone" and clear out
OF it every unnecessary resident
Don't laugh at this idea. 1t may
come true.
This 10 war time, and the Gov
eminent MUST have employees. And
the employees MUST have decent
living accommodations. Today the
city seems to be absolutely without
homes for women.
And still the Government demands
MORE and MORE help. Soon the
Government will take the bull by the
horns and a lot of unnecessary resi-
dents will be asked to leave the city.
Already the Government Is taking
over empty houses. l am told by
officials who have this job In hand
that some Of the big homes Of the
rich are marked for seizure. am
also told that several rich folks
have seen the opportunity to do
something for the city aud nation;
and have already turned over their
houses to the Housing Bureau.
That's playing the game fair!

Uncle Sam Finds 371 Men in

Washington. May 20--United States pensioners living in Germany and Austria who have been drawing mon- ey from the American government by reason of their services in the Civil war or for other reasons, have had their allowances cut off because of their residence in enemy territory. Paymen of pensions will not be re- stunned until peace is declared, Con- gress has been told, although allow anccs arc sent regularly to those re- siding in the countries allied against Germany and Austria or in neutral lands.
 Reports submitted to Congress show that in the fiscal year ended June 50, 19I7. there were 371 Americans re- sdinS in Germany entitled to pensions under the laws of this country, and that in Austria Hungary there were twenty-sevcn American pensioners. These facts were discussed in the House recently when a bill increas- ing the pension of Civil war voter ans to a minimum of $25 a month was under consideration.
 Veterans of the Civil and Spanish wars entitled to pensions from the United States are living in all parts of the world, and a bill is now pend ing in Congress to exclude pension privileges to all except those living in the United States or it's possessions. Residences of foreign pensioners in Clude Algeria. the Bahama, Barba- dos, Borneo, Cape dc Verde Islands, China, Comoro Islands, Egypt, East Africa, India, Isle of Pines.

UNLIMITED FORCE
 OF MEN FOR FRANCE
President Wilson Declares Power
 of Nation Is in the War

New York, May 20.-Official assur- ance that there is to be no limit on the number of American soldiers sent to France was given Saturday night by President Wilson in opening the Red Cross campaign in New York. President Wilson spoke to nearly 5000 people and was frequently in terrupted by waves of applause that swept over thrilled audience.
 Russia is not to be deserted, Presi- dent Wilson declared, and will be protected from German autocracy. He also said that he had conscienti- ously examined all so-caled peace offers of enemy governments and had tound them to be insincere.
 President Wilson's address follows:
 MT. Chairman and fellow country think that MT. Davison in any de- gree curtailed, his exceedingly inter esting speech for fear that he was postponing mine, because I am sure 
 and intimate interest with which I listened to the extraordinary vivid account he gave of the things which he had realized because he had come In contact with them on the other side of the water. We compass them with our imagination; he com passed them in his personal exper- ence, and I am not come here to- night to review for you the work of the Red Cross; I am not competent to do so because l have not had the time or the opportunity to follow it In detail
 have come here simply to say few words to you as to what it all seems to mo to mean, and it means a great deal There are two duties with which we are face to face. The first dutp is to win the war. And the second duty. that goes hand in hand with it, is to win 1t greatly and worthily, showing the real quality of our power not only but the real quality of our purpose and of ourselves. Of course the first duty. the duty that we must keep in the foreground of our thought until it Is accomplished is to win the war. l have heard gentle men recently say that we must get B,000.000 men ready. Why limit it Co 5000, 1000?

amongst us, who had worked shoulder to shoulder with us, and now friends of America, were fighting for their native Italy.
 Friendship is the only cement that will ever hold the world together And this intimate contact of the Red Cross With the peoples who are suf- fering the terrors and deprivations of this war is going to be one of the greatest instrumentalities of friend ship that the world ever knew, and the center of the heart of it all, if we sustain it properly, will be this land that we so dearly love-
 My friends, a great day of duty has come, and duty finds a mans soul as no kind of work can ever find it..
 May I say this? The duty that faces us all now is to serve one an- other, and no man can afford to make a fortune out of this war. There are men among Us who have forgot ten that, if they eveA saw it. Some of you are old eSugh-I am old enough, to remember men who made fortunes out of the Civil war, and you know how they were regarded by their fellow citizens
 That was war to save one coun- try-this is war to save the world, And your relation to the Red Cross is one of the relations which will re- lieve you of the stigma. You cant give anything to the government of the United States. It won't accept it. Therc is a law of congress against accepting even services with out pay. The only thing that the government will accept is a loan, and duties performed; but it is a great deal better to give than to lend or to pay and your great channel for giv- ing is the American Red Cross. Down in your hearts you cant take very much satisfaction in the last analysis in lending money to the government of the United States because tho in terest which you draw will burn your pockets; it is a COmme ercial transac- ton, and some men have even stopped to cavil at the rate of inter est, not knowing the incidental com mentary that constitutes upon their attitude.
