this city and the facilities which
it places at the disposal Of visi-
tors are the best to be found
anywhere in the United States.
There are other cities, includ-
ing New York, where the tourist
is eagerly and expertly welcomed.
but the entire atmosphere OF
these towns is to go about their
business, to keep the wheels OF
commerce moving, and to leave
the stranger in their midst to
his own devices. None Of them
really pay much attention to him.
except those who are CONNER
cially interested, Of course.
But in Washington it's differ
ent. Everywhere one goes, one
has the impression that the folks
are waiting for him there and
are expecting him. There is an
''open arms" courtesy here, even
in the Government buildings.
The city seems to be built for
strangers and to have been
trained to the idea Of making
them feel that 1t is their Capital
Part Of that psychology is in the
very nature Of the city itself, for
it is made up of strangers from
all parts Of the country who
have made their home here.
I believe that the tourist in
vasion Of Washington is going to
grow by leaps and bounds. Five
years from now you will have to
triple your hotel accommodations

especially in the summer time.
There was a time not long ago
when washington had drinking
pumps galore, but with the
modern theory Of. sanitation they
were abolished by order Of the
health authorities because of the
common drinking ladle or cup.
Now with high pressure water,
especially in the business sections
of the city, there is no excuse
for not having them because
there is no need of cup or tin.
All of the drinking fountains now
In use in Washington are of the
pressure type, only there is not
enough of them.

Editor, Times:
The murder Of Miss Mary
Baker should be a powerful SER
mon to the thousands Of young
women here in washington, who
are in just the same position as
she was.
when the United States en-
tered the war thousands Of girls
came to Washington to wo-k
from small towns and villages
throughout the country. Many
of them stayed on and are now
in the employ of Government de-
partments.
While everything that has been
printed in the newspapers con-
tain nothing but praise for the
morals of Miss Baker, there are
many in Washington whose corr
duct would not stand the glare
of publicity. It is for these girls
that Miss Bakers horrible death
should be a warning.
At their homes they were model
girls; living in the small towns
and villages they were under the
constant eyes of their parents
and friends, and even If they
felt the urge to stray from the
straight and narrow they would
be restrained by the knowledge
that they were being watched.
Here in Washington one finds
young women Government work
ers living in twos and threeS in
apartment houses, and wild par.
ties" are at least a weekly occur
renee.
What these girls need is some
restraining influence, such AS
they were accustomed to in their
early days.

Ducks Dying of Strange Malady.

BILLINGS, April 21.-(U.P.)-
Ducks are dying from a strange af-
Fiction in Rattlesnakes lake-lead
poisoning.
Gruhbing around the bottom of the
lake for gravel-necessary for diges-
tion-the game birds have consumed
many shot gun pellets, according to
Federal Game Protector George Mush-
back. Eventually the afflicted bird is
overcome and dies from lead poison
ing.
Forty-five dead ducks have been
picked up and the game protector be-
lieves the total will be close to 100.
This malady is common in Louisiana
but has been virtually unknown in
Montana.
Low water has forced Rattlesnake
lake ducks to abandon their usual
shallow water feeding grounds and to
invade the deeper water near duck
blinds. The lake is owned by private
club.

Intellectual bankruptcy in high
places was responsible for the
voters revolt at the polls Tues
day, according to q statement
by Senator Henrik Shipstead.
Farmer-Labor, Of Minnesota, last
night.
For hours yesterday the eyes
Of the nation were focused on
Senator Shipstead, while incom-
plete returns indicated he held
the balance Of power regarding
the organization of the Senate
In the Seventy.second Congress.
Senator Shipstead last night
seemed more concerned over the
tmponderables Of the election and
interpreting the causes of the
revolt than In the organization
OF the Senate. Committee chair
manships amount to little in the
Senate, because, more often than
not, the recommendations are
ignored and voted down, and
comparatively few measures have
been passed at recent sessions by
strict party votes.
Discussing the Republican over
throw, Senator Shipstead said:
Interpreting the result, 1
suspect that the people voted
according to their feeling and
conviction that, judging by The
economic situation, the cOun-
try was not drifting in the
right direction.
Interpreting the cause, I
would say that intellectual
bankruptcy In high places, par
ttcularly In government and
finance, was one Of the voters
prime actuating reasons for de-
string to change the existing
conditions, policy and per-
sonnet"
