EMBASS|ESSEEK
H0TELQUARTERS
FOR DELEGATES
Real Estate Board Still Listing
Houses for Visitors at Dis
arm Conference.

In connection with the coming con-
ference on limitation OF ornaments,
II is understood several Of the en-
bassies have made tentative arrange
ments to place their delegations In
hotels. This fact, according to Percy
H. Russell. chairman of the special
committee Of the Washington Real
Estate Board, will materially relieve
the need Of furnished quarters which
the Real Estate Board has been list
ing. The board, however, il still
soliciting furnished properties, espe-
cially dwellings and apartments.
A large number Of newspaper COR
respondents both from this country
and virtually every European coun-
try Is expected in Washington and It
Is the desire OF the Real Estate Board
that these men be given the same
service that Is being extended to the
official delegations Of the countries
invited to the conference. The board
has requested the assistance Of the
Press Club in getting information as
to the possible requirements from the
different Press Associations and indi-
vidual newspapers. While participa-
ton in the conference is limited to
The Washington times., 1921-10-01

only q few countries, indications are
that most other foreign governments
will have some informal representa-
ton In Washington during the con.
ference. '". " ~
Mr.. Russell says that UP to the
present II has been impossible to de.
termine with any degree Of accuracy
just what demands viii be made on
the committee, but Il is desirable TO
have a sufficient number Of prop.
critics registered with the board to
meet any possible contingency in
November. ,..-.... ,
There has been some misunder.
standing on the part OF property
owners ana brokers who have been
listing their properties with the board
as to the position OF the board in this
matter. Mr.. Russell said emphati.
cally there would be no charge made
by the board for the service It is
rendering.
The board is simply acting as a
central listing bureau to supply in
formation TO those expected at the
conference as to the location OF de-
sirable furnished properties. In each
instance where properties are rented
by these parties, the final negotia-
tons and payment Of rent Will be
handled by the parties with the prop
erty owner or their rental agency II
they have one.
Inquiries are daily coming to the
board from property owners as TO the
status or their property and they are
being informed that definite requests
for accommodations have not yet
reached the board. These requests
are not expected to come In definite
form for several weeks. All Of the
work done to, date, by this special
COMMITTEES has been more or less pre-
liminary In character in ORDER that
the entire matter might be facilitated
at the last minute when the visitors
begin TO arrive.
The committee Of the Real Estate
Board which Is working in conjunc-
ton with the Central Citizens Com
mittee in handling this special work
is composed Of Percy H. Russell,
chairman, Robert c. Howard, F. e.
