Protest that the United States Hous-
ing Corporation proposes to, charge
more for rooms in the government
dormitories than many war workers
are now paying in Washington homes
has been made to the National Fed
eration of Federal Employees by en-
ployes in the executive departments
here.
Thomas H. j. Quinn, who is han
ding the protest for the national
federation. said that the employees
in a number of the government bu-
reaus are declining to apply for rooms
in the dormitories because of the
price. The housing corporations an
nouncement was that not more than
single rooms with two meals on week
days and three meals on Sundays
Mr.. Quinn pointed to the ordnance
division. where. out of 300 girls to
whom dormitory application blanks
were sent three asked for reserva-
tions.
Mr.. Quinn said many of the girls
are not applying for the dormitory
rooms because they now are being
accommodated in local homes at $50
and S35 month.
IF the government charges s45
month" Mr.. Quinn continued, house
keepers of Washington who now are
charging less certainly would feel
justified in raising their prices
Mr.. Quinn took the position that
$45 d month would be out of proper
ton to the salaries of the girl war
workers. He said the complaints
would be brought formally to the at
tention of the housing corporation
within few days.

The government will require about
$500 car loads of a thousand cases
each. 1t would take freight train

quota. More than rs per cent OF the
total government requirements Will be
used by the Army.
An old Army sergeant detailed to
the subsistence division states that he
once kept a lot. of tomatoes for four
wears and that they were in splendid
condition at the end of that time
However, tomatoes cannot be kept so
long at this time, due to the incessant
demand for canned tomatoes from the
men overseas, the primary use being
in soups and as means of quenching
thirst in the front-line trenches. All
tomatoes used by the Army are care
fully inspected. rejection being made
of those which do not meet the full

tions.
During the week just passed more
than fifty car loads of tomatoes were
rejected by the subsistence division as
