A former Baraboo resident, now
located in Washington, writes as fol
lows apropos of the Armistice day OBJ
servances in that place:
$50 much thrilling and exciting has
been happening down here that
don't know where to begin. I was
very glad to be in Washington yester-
day. I wished that all my family
were with me although I'd hate to
see the crowd swelled that much
more.
con Thursay night, five Of us girls
went down to the capitol. You never
saw such a line of people. In all of
my wartime experiences, l never join
ed such a line, four abreast for blocks.
We couldn't find the end of it so we
slipped in where it only took us an
hour to get into the capitol. I wish
you could have seen the rotundai 1t
was banked all around with flowers
and wreaths and the f1ag-draped cas-
ket of the Unknown Soldier in the
center with six soldiers standing at
attention with bowed heads on guard
beside it. They looked as though they
were carved figures. And they stood
on this guard duty for an hour; don't
see how they did it. There was a
stream of people going through there
all day long.
con Friday we witnessed the para

where we could see everything. The
whole United States government
was in that line of march-the Sc
nate, the House, the Cabinet, the SUI
preme court, the President and DiplO-
matte corps. Harding and Pershing
walked together, behind the casket
which was on an army caisson drawn
by four beautiful black horses. 1t GER
tainly was an inspiring sight. Then
you should have seen the jam for
street-cars going out to Arlington
cemetery We had about decided to
go home and not try to go at all when
along came the incest naval officer
and his wife and asked us to ride in

was awful and they couldn't get it I'M
jammed so finally the street-cars had
to stop running. Cars turned every
way, all in one mess. But finally we
got there just in time which was
more than some Of the high dignitar-
les did. Arlington is so impressive in
itself and the day was so beautifully
sunshiney. 1 never attend a service of
any kind or description so wonderful
and impressive as this. We couldn't
see much outside of the amphitheatre
as we were, but we could hear per-
fectly. Those amplifiers certainly are
marvellous. l would have walked out
there, just to hear Rosa Ponselle

Business Men Hope Govern

r. Building Space.

Optimism that the business men Of
Washington will within very short
time have assurances from the gov
ernment that they will soon after the
first of the year be allowed to take
possession ofia site for the proposed
new convention hall. now occupied
by a temporary government build
ing, was expressed today by Robert
N Harper following conference
with Col. Clarence o. Sheriff.. officer
in charge of public buildings ana
grounds.
II such assurance is had more than
500 business men stand ready to form
a corporation and underwrite the cost
of the proposed convention hall large
enough to meet all demands Tor mass
meetings in the National Capital. Mr..
Harper said. This company would be
formed at once, plans drawn for the
building and the money raised SO that
work might start as soon as Uncle
Sam vacateS the property, according
to the program laid before Col. Sher-
rill.
Satisfactory Meeting.
Mr.. Harper. who is chairman OF the
convention hall committee. was &C
companied to the conference with Col.
Sheriff. by Charles j. Columbus, sec
retary of the Merchants and Manufac-
turers' Association.
1--WE had a very encouraging and sat
isfactory meeting with Col. Sherriii:
said Mr.. Harper. "He has promised to
see Senator Smoot at once and arrange
for a meeting of the public buildings
commission to consider our proposition.
He made it clear to US that there was
no antagonism TO our getting the build
ing We want. but quite the reverse. as
he recognized it was in the public inter-
est. At the same time he emphasized the
difficulties that the commission is having
in providing office space for govern
ment activities"
Mr.. Harper said he made 1t plain to
Col Sheriff. why the business men OF
Washington feel it is essential to get
4 the particular building they are seek
ing instead of any other. Col. Sher-
Harper assured him that if the gov
ernment could not move out Of that
building before the first of the year it
would not seriously interfere with the
plans of the Washington business
men if they could have assurances of
getting the property on an approx
innate date so that they could form
corporation and start getting plans
and raising money.
The site sought is in the vicinity of
Potomac Park, near 18th street and
Virginia avenue. At present a gov
eminent temporary building occupies
three parcels of land. There are about
$4,000 feet in this block. The business
men want to get one Of these three
parcels, approximately $4,000 feet.
When they get it they propose to tear
down the temporary building and
start work at once on the erection of
a fine permanent convention hall
building. to meet a long-felt need OF
the National Capital.

missioners Bring Five Here.
Office Problem.

The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion Is consolidating five field agencies
here in Washington. which will bring
this city. The consolidated office will
have space in temporary building No.
2, at 18th and D streets northwest. One
Of these field agencies is now at 719 18th
street northwest. The others are: South
ern agency. at Chattanooga. Tenn; Cen
tral agency. at Chicago; Western
agency. at Kansas City. and the Pacific
agency, at San Francisco.
Hard to Find Space.
With two of the temporary war
work buildings already raZed-the
Council of aNtional Defense building
and the Corcoran Courts-and two at
struction. the Public Buildings Com
mission finds itself hard put to find
OFFICE space in gOvernment-owned
buildings to accommodate all de-
mands. The internal revenue force is
particularly in need Of space and win
have some in c building at 9Th and
streets. although the internal rev.
enue force Is already scattered in six
different buildings.
All activities in Washington Of the
reau have been ordered to the Ring
ton building, at H street. and Vermont
avenue.
Once Space for Conference.
Another serious problem facing the
Public Building Commission is to find
adequate Office space to accommodate
the disarmament conference The
main sessions will be held. in the
Pan-American building, and SO 1t Is
desirable that nearby offices should
be provided, and that they should
be quarters suitable to the dignity of
the occasion and courtesy to repre-
sentatives of other nations. Most Of
these offices will probably be in the
new Navy building, but the comm g.
sion is also considering alloting space
in the Munitions building and the
ordnance annex, as we'll as new
building at 18th street and New York,
avenue.
While it is possible that A building,
the first south of Pennsylvania avenue,
at 9Th and B streets. may not be en-

ing Of the cornerstone of the George

vember IL. assurance has been given
that sufficient of the site will be
cleared to allow the cornerstone lay
