Santa for Motorists Driving
South This Winter

For the benefit of motorists who are
taking their cars to the South this
winter the touring bureau of the
A. A. A. Metropolitan Consulate has
compiled extensive data on shipping
facilities as we'll as on read informa-
ton. While each succeeding year finds
a larger number wh6 make the entire
trip to the South in their cars, there
are still more who ship by rail or water
for part of the journey at least.
Changes and new rules in schedules,
rates and regulations, complicated by
Grafton, are proving most confusing
The A. A. A. Metropolitan Consulate,
however, through it's touring bureau,
has just made a comprehensive invest-
cation and study Of the rail and water
shipping facilities, and is ready to give
helpful information and advice to
motorists. The routes available for
shipping by water, which is preferable
to railroad service at this time, are
New York to Charleston, New York to
Savannah and New York to Jackson
Vile
There is another steamship service
between New York, Baltimore and Nor
folk, Va, which enables the motorist to
ship around the bad stretch of road be-
tween Washington and Fredericksbu
Detailed information has also been
compiled under the direction of L. A.
Dickinson, of the touring bureau, on
the services available from New York
to Cuba, Bermuda, Porto Rico, New Or
leans and Galveston. C..E r. S.

Landlords and Tenants
Wrangle in W ashington
Rehabilitation of War Work
ers Is Expected TO Solve
Housing Problem

WASHINGTON, Dec. 24-Wars NAV
come and wars may go, but wrangling
between tenants and landlords in the
District of Columbia will, apparently,
go on forever. Not even a temporary
armistice can these belligerents be in
duced to sign. and any signs Of perma-
nent peace terms being drawn I'D is
long way off in the future.
According to officials of the Housing
and Health Division of the War De-
partment, which functions for all the
departments, and has been speciallv
designated by Secretary Wilson as the
medium through which all disputed
landlord and tenant cases, eviction,
and dlspossessions among employees of
the Labor Department shall be adjust
ed, no day passes without at least ten
cases of dispute being brought to the
attention Of the division, and on many
days as many as seventy-five cases
come up for adjudication.
These cases appear to range ali the
way from complaints from tenants that
arbitrary rules in the particular place
of abode even prohibit talking above a
whisper to declarations on the part of
dlsgruntled landladies to the effect that
practically the very foundation stones
Of their dwellings are being daily
rooted UP and carted off on the should
ers of intrusive occupants of their
rooms
Hope is entertained, however. that
the partial rehabilitation Of the army
of war workers recruited into the vari-
Gus departments at the beginning Of
the war will afford material relief
from the present quarrel engendering
conditions of the housing question.
Exact figures as TO the effect of such
demobilization on the housing situation
in Washington, as we'll as of the re-
suits of the expected return to their
homes for the Christmas holidays of a
large number of war workers, have not
yet been compiled. But announcement
is made that by December accurate
estimates can be made.

1000 U. S. Troops
To Spend Christmas
In English Homes
Turkey Dinners and Plum
Puddings Assured Part of
Men Who Cannot Return
to Homes i'm America

LONDON, Dec 24-Two thousand
American soldiers, sailors and marines
will be entertained at turkey dinner on
Christmas in 1000 British homes
tomorrow, thanks to the thoughtful
preparation made for their care The
plum pudding and roast beef of Merrie
England will be there, competing with
the American turkey and cranberry
sauce. While every man in the A. E.
F. will have plenty of Christmas eats
and cheer, the 1000 lucky ones will
fare better.
It's all part of the programme of
the international Hospitality League
of the Y. M. c. A. 1t provides hospi-
tality for lonesome soldiers.
The Hospitality League asked for
LOGO homes; and they got them Which
means that 1000 American soldiers
may have what it takes to drive away
homesickness on the one day of all days
when fellow wants good companion
ship. The boys go two to a house, so
that 1000 are taken care of in 1000
homes.
Turkeys are reasonably plentiful.
For q time the plum pudding was in
danger because of lack of currants and
other proper ingredients, but now that
Fritz has faded away the shipping
minister has decreed that bottoms may
be spared to move the currants that
lay III a distant port waiting to be
transported and transformed into plum
pudding
In addition to the 1000 who will
have their real Merry Christmas in
homes in or near London, there will be
1900 others invited out for the after
noon tea and evening supper.
