VANGUARD OF OAR.
REACHES CAPITAL
Indications Point to Attend
ance as Large as in Pre-
ViOuS Years.

Despite the fact that the economic
depression was supposed to reduce the
usual number of delegates attending
the annual D. A. r. Congress. which
opens Monday night, registration Of
delegates at headquarters today was
said to be about on a par with other
years.
Mrs. Lowell Fletcher Hobart. retiring
president general of the National So
ciety, and most of the other national
officers already are here. To make it
unnecessary for delegates to arrive be-
fore Monday, the annual program has
been changed this year to eliminate the
Monday morning and afternoon ses-
sions. The congress, therefore will
open Monday night and Mrs. Hobart
will make her address Tuesday after
noon.
While a thin but steady stream OF
delegates are arriving in person, others
have sent their credentials in advance
and this indicates about the usual at
tendarce this year, which is national
election year of great interest to all the
membership.
D. A. R. delegates will attend the
maSsed concert of the Army. Navy and
Marine Bands tomorrow night in Con-
stitution Hall which is being given
under auspices of the District of Co.
lumbia Red Cross. The final board
meeting of the present D. A r. admin
istration, it was said. will be held
Monday morning, instead of Sunday,
under the changed schedule.
Many of the national officers attend
ed the dedication exercises at Hains
Point yesterday, when a grove of 26
newly planted trees were presented to
the Office of Public Buildings and Pub
lie Parks as living memorials to George
Washington One of the trees was
dedicated in honor of Mrs. Hobart.
Mrs Daniel C. Walser, District chair
man of conservation and thrift, had
charge of the exercises and the placing
of a bronze marker, while Miss Helen
Harman, District regent, made the
presentation. Company L Of Western
