RED CROSS FUND DRIVES
EXCLUDED FROM HOTELS
New York Proprietors Regard Any
Solicitation of Donations in
Lobbies as Objectionable.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, November 1S.-On the
ground that solicitation of funds
from guests is incompatible with
the best ideas of hospitality and en-
tertainment," 120 principal hotels,
members of the Hotel Association
here, have forbidden the American
Red Cross tos use their lobbies in
annual roll call. IT is the first time
since the roll call was established eight
years ago that the Red Cross booths
have been missing from the lobbies of
the larger hotels.
Officers OF the Hotel Associat ion
said a rule was passed two years
ago prohibiting the use of lobbies
for drives" Of any sort. Since then,
it was said, an exception has been
made every year to accommodate the
Red Cross. The growing difficulty
in explaining the action to other
worthy organizations" was partly
responsible for enforcing the rule this
year, they said.
