Old Tunes to Make
B. E. F. 'HOmesick'
Is Classford Idea
Police Chief Will Urge
Service Bands to Play
at Camps.

Overwhelmed by the number OF vet
Grams pouring into Washington, Brig.
Gen. Pelham D. Glassford, superin-
tendent of police, late yesterday hit
upon the novel scheme Of having the
service bands visit each encampment
and play sentimental music to make
the former doughboyS homesick.'
He announced to newspaper men he
would write the leaders Of the Army,
Navy and Marine Bands and request
that they assist him. Among the num-
bers which he hopes to have played be-
fore the bonus marchers are Home,
Sweet Home; Garry Me Back to Old
Virginia" California. Here I Come;
Wabash Blues" Dallas Blues" Aud
Lang Syne," Little Gray Home in the
West" Travelling Back to Georgia" and
"Swanee River"
"Comdr. in Chief" Walter w. Waters
accepted the offer of the bands and de-
clared he didn't care what they
played" But Mike Thomas, commander
of Camp Marks. at Anacostia. said he
would instruct his buglers to blow dis
cords if any service bands tried to play
in his camp.

is no discipline. no curb on mischief
What they want is free for the taking
There are plenty Of fairy queenS-sym-
pathetic Washington women who visit
the camp and are moved by what they
believe is the sad lot of these little
ones. They have the run of the camp,
from the sewer pipe to headquarters
Also the children are a source OF con-
siderable revenue to some OF the parents
who arrived in town pennileSS.
In spite of the filthy surroundings the
parents seem to have succeeded in
keeping ell these youngsters fairly
clean. But it requires almost constant
washing of clothes and bodies for
there is enough mud to get dirty in
here to gladden. the heart of any child
Also the children have been kept in
good health No cases of sickness have
been reported among them.
Women on Increase.
The number of women in the camp
appears to be on the increase. Most
of them are living with their husbands
in dilapidated automobiles parked at
the edge of the camp. All have sad
stories to tell OF the misery which led
them to take to the road.
The B. E. F. cannot be dismissed
with any one descriptive adjective
There are all sorts of men in these
ragged Notwithstanding some OF the
real heroes of 1918. who have fallen
on evil days.
A former knights of Columbus work
er at Camp Dix recognized one of them
the other day-a winner Of the CroiS
de Guerre whom he had known during
the war. He had gone back to his
home in Jacksonville, Fla, gotten job
in bank, married, and prospered dur
ing the boom times. He had invested
his savings in the banks stock.
Then the institution failed and fol
the past two years he has been unable
to get regular job of any kind. His
wife works in store during the Win
ter. He has done everything from dish
washing to bootblacking, but can't pos
Sibly make both ends meet.
He took the K. of C. secr6ohry to his
howell in the Camp Marks jungle. 1t
was a sickening picture, said this man
who remembered the spirited Army
camps of 1917.
