has been unusually cold and q mp,
but there is an official prohi' ion
against the use Of coal for &C ira
heating purposes before Novemb ~ /,
so that only those hotels able to obtain

Most Paris hotels have no coal and
shivering tourists are wishing them
selves back home. Travellers just ar
rived from Berlin and Vienna say that
prices there are much higher and heat
also is lacking.
Although it was believed that Paris
hotels would have an abundance of
rooms for all comers after the depart
ure Of the armies of allied war workers,
Paris seems just as badly crowded as
at this time last year, and tourists are
walking the streets seeking accommo-
dations.
Paris still is filled with refugees from
the devastated areas and from coun-
tries upset by war, accounting for the
great demand for shelter.
