Girl Workers viii Pay But $45
Monthly, Including Two
Meals.

Girl war workers to be housed in
the government dormitories on the
Union station plaza will be charged
not more than s45 a month for a
ROOM. including two meals on week
days and three meals on Sundays.
This announcement was made by
the United States Housing Corpora
tion today, in connection with a no.
tice which it sent to all government
bureaus in Washington. asking them
to submit as soon as possible a list
Of employees who want accommoda-
tions in the new residence halls.
Ask for Apportioning.
This method of listing applications
for the dormitories was decided on in
order that the rooms would be prop
erly apportioned among the bureaus.
A letter sent to the bureaus by Alfred
S. Amer, general manager Of the dor
mitories, asks that these lists Of appli-
cants be submitted not later than
November 1.
1t is suggested that applicants Of
each bureau be numbered on the
list SO that In the event that there
are more applicants than the dormi-
tories will accommodate. the rooms
may be allotted to those who first
applied in e-ch bureau. Att,r the
lists are received from all bureaus
the Housing Corporation will allot
a certain number of rooms to each
bureau.
Fear Flocking to New Quarters.
Whether or not the Housing Cor
poration will take steps to prevent a
rush of war workers from the homes
of the city into the dormitories is
not known. No reference to- this
phase of the question is. made in the
statement issued today
If the price of $45 a month for room
and board should cause girls now
housed in the homes of the city to
flock to the dormitories. the United
States home registration service would
face the problem Of finding rooms In
private homes again for workers who
arrive in future.
The dormitories on the plaza will
accommodate 1.944 women, chiefly In
single rooms, and will be ready some
time in December. The dormitories
at 23d and B streets. which will be
ready in February. will provide for
900 women. Accommodations also
will be provided at 23d and B streets
for 1,400 persons in small kitchenette

In accepting the proposal Tor an

Of an armisticc should be left to the
judgment of military advisers ana
that the actual standard of power
on both sides in the field has to form
the basis for arrangements sa1e-
guarding and guaranteeing this
standard.
The German government suggests
to the President that an opportunity
should be brought about for hxlns
the details. 1t trusts that the Presi-
dent of the United states Will aP-
prove of no demand which would pc
irreconcilable with the honor OF the
German people and with opening a
way to a peace of justice.
Denies Inhuman Acts.
The German government protests a
against the reproach of illegal ana
inhuman actions made against the
German land and sea forces ana
thereby against the German people.
For the covering of a retreat destruc,

they are carried out in SO far as s., Is

German troops are under most strict
instructions to spare private prop
erty and to exercise care lor tne
population to the best of their abii-
ity. Where transgressions occur IN

are being punished.
