Cost Is Low If Necessities
Only Are Figured in
BUDGET.
BY ELIZABETH WALKER
NEA Service Special Writer

CHICAGO, June 5.-Thousands
are asking, How much will it cost
to see the world fair"
The answer depends, Of course, on
how far the visitor travels, how long
he stays in Chicago, and many
other things.
However, it has been estimated
that an individual can spend week
taking in the sights at A Century OF
Progress, seeing 80 per cent of all
there is to see, and staying at good
hotel, for well under $50.
This figure would include:
Room with bath, five days, $3.50.
Meals for seven days, S14.
Admission to the fair, six days, Sc.
Many Attractions for S3.I0
Admission to Chinese temple.
Streets of Paris, Belgian and ORR
entail villages, South Pole ship. TT.
Dearborn and Lincoln group $40.
Admissions TO supplementary ex-
hibitS at Art institute, Field mu-
scum, Shedd aquarium and Adler
planetarium, 81.
Miscellaneous sideshoWs including
Spectacular, Is cents.
Local transportation in Chicago,
S120.
This totals 1885. The figures al
low for little but essentials and OBJ
ViOusly may be contracted or ex-
panded as the visitor wishes Trans
portation by train or auto will be
added expense.
Many Exhibits Free
Whether a person stays within
his budget depends largely on how
much he spends on that boulevard
OF ballyhoo, the Midway, where
amusement concessions are located.
1t derives its name as we'll as it's
scale of prices from Chicago's first
fair in 1893.
Most Of the fair exhibits are free,
and among them is the Enchanted
Isle for children, where sight
seeing parents may check their Off
spring while they see the fair
However, the children themselves
must pay sums ranging from a
penny to is cents to explore the

HALT PAY FOR
TOILET KITS OF
FOREST ARMY
Budget Director Informs
Senate ProberS He Is
Holding Up Checks.

BIZ Scripps-Hoicard Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON. June Budget
Director Lewis Douglas has stopped
payment to the contractor supply
ing toilet kits for members Of the
reforestation camps because of the
excessive price agreed upon, the
senate committee Investigating the
contract has been informed.
Further deliveries Of the kits.
which Army Quartermaster-G General
Dewitt testified are costing the gov
eminent IS cents more than they
should, have been stopped.
Richard Bevier New York con-
tractor, whose contemplated profits
on the deal was estimated BY SEN
ators at S42 1000, or q cents for each
Of the 100000 kits, will face sena-
tors today who are seeking to learn
why the government has been called
upon to pay the higher figure.
General Dewitt said chat the army
could obtain the same equipment
for Is cents on a competitive bid
ding basis whereas Director Fech-
ner Of the citizens conservation
corps and his chief assistant. James
7. McNentee, agreed to pay sl4O.
Insist Emergency Existed
Fechner and McEntee insisted
that an emergency existed and that
there was no time for competitive
bidding Democratic and Republican
senators alike questioned his
methods and seemed diSinclined to
accept his statements
At one time, Fechner was threat
ened with contempt of the senate
for refusing to estimate Bevier's
profits after he had told Senator
Reynolds Dem, N. O., that he
knew lin confidence" what they
were. Informed by Senator Shop
pard, chairman that he must
answer or face the consequences, he
said IS per cent.
The two officials thought it
necessary to make independent
purchases of toilet equipment, be-
cause McEntee on a visit to the
camp at Luray, Va, inspected toilet
articles which had been issued by
the war department and found them
unsatisfactory Pressed by senators
for detailed criticism he was vague
Claims He Made Good Buy
Fechner informed the budget bu-
reau and Louis M. Howe, secretary
to the President, that they we're
buying the material cheaper than
could be supplied by the war depart
ment, and urged that he be given
instructions to make an emergency
contract.
Howe, in earlier testimony, COM
pletely satisfied senators that he
knew nothing of the transaction
other than what Fechner had repre-
sented
Even after General DeWitt's testi-
mOny that the army could obtain
the equipment IS cents a kit cheap
er. Fechner insisted he had made
good buy
Senators seemed annoyed because
Bevier was permitted to assist in
the preparation of the contract,
likewise of memoranda for the war
department and for the files, for
future reference to the controller
general in the event he questioned
the bills when it came time for pay
ment.
Senators interpreted this memo
randa as indicating that the con-
tractor expected trouble

If officials at the repeal election

Tuesday will be the first time in
forty years that legal beer has been

Mr.. and Mrs. C. P. Collingwood, Mr..
and Mrs. Robert Govan and Mrs.
James Govan, all of Pittsburgh, were
guests at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.

The rain last Saturday evening pre-
vented the holding of the announced
social to be held by the Busy Work

held in the village grove, but the re-
sourceful young ladies served refresh
ments and entertained the good crowd
that attended in the village school
house.

young men from the Crab Tree refor-

force was to cooperate by way of the
st. Lawrence. This resulted in the
capture of Port Royal and subsequent
ly the Governorship of Nova Scotia
for Nicholson. The post palled after
five or six years and again he in
trigued to made Governor of New
York instead of Robert Hunter, who
outwitted him. Nothing daunted,
Nicholson returned to England and
was knighted in 1920. Shortly after
ward he was made Governor of South
Carolina. His disposition seemed to
sweeten up, for here he carried on
with much success for five years, and
was rewarded for his services by be-
ing made acknowledgement.
In 1928 Lieut.-Gen. Sir Francis
Nicholson died in London with a rec
ord to his credit of more than thirty
eight years in the royal service. To-
day his name is probably more famil-
lar to US than any other royal Gov
ernor. He sleeps in a glory that was
wrested from life by many a strange
way. But where is the tankard now?
In October, 1874, A. w. Corliss,
captain in the United States Army,
wrote Mr.. LOSING that the tankard
was then in possession of Emory Cof-
fin, of Newburyport, Mass. Recently
a search of the most likely places in
Massachusetts brought no results. Nor
can information be had of either Mr..
Coffin or Captain Corliss. There is lit
tie doubt that the tankard still ex-
lists, and maybe soon some lucky per-
son will uncover it's hiding place so
that in 1884 Maryland will find it
among her souvenirs.
