Servicemen Warned
OF Rent Gougers

Visiting servicemen were warned
today by the Lodging Committee of
the War Hospitality Committee to
pay no extra fees for rooms or lodg-
ings when they visit the Capital.
The admonition followed a report
that one serviceman paid a SIS fee to
hotel telephone operator who rec
commended private home where he
could stay overnight. He repeatedly
paid another So for the room.
About 5000 beds for service per-
sonnel are available in the Washing
ton area every week end, the Hos
pitality Committee said. Many of
the beds are not always used. '-.,--,-
Men and women in the service, in
cluding officers, can obtain informa-
ton on available rooms at the
United Nations Service Center, SOC
North Capitol street, or at service
club information desks.
Meanwhile, 5000 posters, to be dis
tributed to service camps and mill
tary installations all 'er the coun-
try, are being prepared by the Hos
pitality Committee to guide service
men planning to stop in Washing
ton. The poster is headed when
