TERRIFIC STORM

Suburbs Hard Hit by Great
Downpour-car Lines
Meet Emergency.

Washington last night took in
ventory of the damage wrought by
the worst rainstorm in fOrty.four
years. and decided that it would ht
weeks before suburban roads would
be- only as bad as usual.
Ripped and slashed and washed
away by eight hours of a steady
downpour. practically every unpaved
thoroughfare is a gaping gulley that
will necessitate wide detours for
days. Low-lying sections of the city
felt the brunt OF the storm, but no
community escaped unscathed.
Hundreds of Washington house
holders. not yet recovered from the
shock of first-of.the.month bills,
will spend Labor Day getting the
water out of their cellars. Walls and
fences also must be repaired. ard

Holiday trips to nearby beaches
are subject to indefinite postpone

The local street car companies
and the Virginia electric lines are
working emergency crews on clear

tecting them from impending slides

Conditions in nearby virginia arc

cording to reports from various

large bearing on the number OF
Shriners who will be listed for ac'
commodation in Washington during
the forty-ninth session of the I'm.
perial Council, Ancient Arabic oder
Mobiles of the Mystic Shrine. to he
held here next June.
During the three days following to.
morrow's holiday Imperial Potentate
James S. McCandless, head of the
Shrine organization in North Ameri'
ca, with the members of his motel
and housing committee, will make
thorough survey of the housing
situation in Washington and will
probably make recommendations as
to the number of Shriners that may
be housed here.
1t is considered likely that there
will be CO siderable Overflow" and
that thousands of Shriners and their
guests may be forced to seek quar-
tCrs In Washington's suburbs and in
Alexandria and possibly Baltimore.
Fully 100000 Shriners and other
guess are expected to spend the
week of June in this city, and
every possible housing facility will
be taxed to the utmost.
viii Fill Residences.
One Of the important problems
facing the imperial potentate and
his staff is the selection Of quarters
for he imperial divan. which in.
cludes all the national officers Of
the imperial council. These officers
will require 100 rooms, md II is
hoped they can be gathered In one,
or, at the most, two hotels, prefer.
ably close together and in = cen.
trally located part of the city. Until
tn .se quarters are selected l. will be
impossible tor the LEGAL housing com.
mIt,Ce, headed by ElIwood L. Morey.
to go ahead with the assig nmeu, OF
quarters to the various temples,
bands, patrols. and drum corps.
Virtually every hotel in Washing.
ton has listed with the Shrine
headquarters the number of rooms
which can be made available during
the week Of the session. and reserva.
ton of these rooms has already I've.
gun. Within the next two or three
weeks It Is expected that every
hotel room in Washington will have
been assigned.
With the hotel assignments com.
plcted, the full activity of the com.
mittee will then be turned to the
task OF listing private homes in
which available rooms can be had.
Every household in Washington
will be asked within the next two
or three months to bear its share
of the burden OF housing the
greatest number of visitors ever
In this city at one time.
Many To Live In Cars.
Upon the hotels and housing com.
mittee will also devolve the task
of securing accommodations for
thousands of automobiles from all
parts Of the nation. Caravans are
already being formed in every large
city in the country.
The laying out of camping sites
and provision of drinking water and
sewage facilities must yet be faced.
Pullman cars will be put on side.
tracks here to serve as homes for
thousands of the guests.
All of these projects will be pre-
liminarily outlined Immediately fol.
lowing the recommendations of the
imperial potentate and the appoint.
ment Of additional subcommittees
shown to be necessary by the coming
weeks survey of the field will proba.
bly, begin within the next ten lays.
