BALTIMORE. Md, March 2.-Balti-
more today is stealing some of the
thunder from Washingtons three-day
inauguration celebration.
Hotels are damned with holiday
crowds making this city stopovcr on
their way to see President-elcct Hoover
take the oath of office Monday Ac-
cording 10 hotel men. no Inauguration of
recent years can equal the present one
in popularity, If Baltimore is any
barometer.
AT the principal hotels 1t was said
The week end reservation lists are greater
than at times of important foot ball
games or races. I'VE have nearly 400
extra reservations for Saturday and
more on Sunday" one manager said.
No inaugural celebration since before
The war has been such a drawing card"
AT the same time hotels are doing a
rush business, plans for bus brigatc
70 washington are under way. Mayor
Broenlng will head parade of 25 buses
TO washington. At first it was be-
lieved 600 persons were to ride in the
vehicles, but so many eleventh-hour ap-
peals have been received that the list
is now over 700 and it may be necec-
sary to provide other transportation
for some of the guests.
Representatives Of the Baltimore Fed
Grafton of Republican Women from all
city wards will leave from the City Hal
Monday at 7:30 am in the coaches
with the Republican city committee to
attend the Hoover inaugural in Wash

land has been besieged with requests
for information on the best route to
take to Washington. but one of the
executives declared it was more i'm
portant to know what time to start than
what route to take
Il should advise all people going
from Baltimore to be on the way be-
fore am" he said.
There are two routes which we are
recommending to the hundreds of mo-
florists consulting us. One is the Co
lumbia Pike and the other the Grain
Highway. The Columbia way is listed
as ~. S. Route No. 81" Starting out
of Baltimore, one goes to Ellicott City
bearing left and passing through the
towns Of Columbia and Olney, turning
left at Olney and thence to Washington
ON the Grain Highway route, one
drives south on Hanover street, cross
ing the bridge into Brooklyn, through
to Glenburnie, and from there keeping
straight ahead to place called Priests
