Such is the picture of the Anaccstia

every likelihood that they will be
swarming over the camp within a few

Epidemic Danger Seen.
"This place threatens to be a second
Chickamauga." said a medical man who
looked it over this morning. There is
no telling what may happen and there
arr no arrangements to take care of an
epidemic
The necessarily unsanitary conditions
under which the food is prepared and
eaten, he explained. threaten an out
break of dysentery which, during the
Spanish War. caused far more deaths
from enemy bullets. The discovery Of
body lice lea6s to the fear of an out
break of typhus fever long the sccurg
of well regulated military camps. The
men are undernourished. They have
drifted into Washington from all sorts
of environments. They are largely un-
sheltered from the dew and chill of the
night. and the fog which rises from the

During the World War the sewerage

There was always an abundant water

set forth that "a colossal disaster" has
now befallen veterans and other work

that the bankers and the money in

deaf to the entreaties of the jobless,
has lent q ready and willing ear to
the wishes of these same bankers and
moneyed interests and has provided for
their use a fund of 50 000 100000 to

ed out yesterday by the Banking Com
mittee in disregard both of the bondless
administration plan and of the huge
Garner public works proposal which
the House sent over.s
Viewed as an emergency measure,
there was little controversy over the
relief loan bill, which the President has
approved in principle A hard fight is
ahead on the bond issue phase OF the
program. which the President and his
aides have condemned emphatically
Yet its sponsor, Senator Wegne- of New
York, has suggested that the Senate
adopt 1t as substitute for the Garner
bill, allowing the two to be compromised
in conference
Under this strategy If the bill finally
curls up and dies under a presidential
veto, which is generally forecast, there
still are Federal relief funds available
in the separate $3oo,oo0,oo0 measure.
