Two Visiting
French Homes
By Katharine NJ. Brooks

Keeping pace with the times,
Washington hoStesses who are en-
joying summer visits in Europe have
taken to the air. Mrs. Robert H.
Dunlap has been in her beloved
France since early summer and
could hardly wait for the date of
her reservation to take off. She
was anxious to see with her own eyes
Just what state her attractive place
was left in when the Germans made
their hasty departure. She will be
back this week-coming by plane
and will join her mother. Mrs.
Thomas N. Wood in her home at
1853 K street. The house is the only
private residence left in the block,
business and apartment buildings
having taken over this once quiet,
stately and fashionable neighbor-
hood.
Mrs. Dunlaps house is in one of
those charming French villages
which was what she wrote about in
her book once There Was a VII
lage."
To Return in august
Mrs. Paul w. Bartlett has the
same fondness for France and is
there now. Like Mrs. Dunlap, she
went by air and will return in
the same travel mode in August.
Mrs. Bartlett went to see for her
self what the invading army had
left of her possessions, and is
spending most of her time in her
Dinard house and going over the
state of the museum filled with the
works of the late Mr.. Bartlett which
she placed there in 1910 For some
weeks after the invasion by the Ger
mans no word came from Mrs.
Bartlett to her family and friends
here but she got back safe and
sound and has lived in Georgetown
through the war years.
The late Mr.. Bartlett had a
studio at 237 Randolph place, built
on the corner of the lot adjoining a
small house. The studio was un-
changed for many years after his
death, the materials and the tools
just as he left them, and when
Mrs. Bartlett came to Washington
she always occupied the house.
When she returned in 1910 or Al
she went to Randolph place, and
shortly after she purchased the
house at 3046 N street, which she
leased when she moved into the
smaller house on Thirty
street. Her granddaughter, Miss
Anne Peter is staying in Mrs. Bart
let's home while her parents, Mr..
and Mrs. Armistead Peter III, are
at their summer home in Connecti-
cut.
Mrs. Bartlett, petite and dainty
figure, looks quite youthful when
she wears her favorite style of hat,
black velvet beret. She is dividing
her time between the Dinard home
and the house at Is Rue du Cherche
Midi, though probably most of her
days are at Dinard. She is a favor
ite among the natives and many a !
box of nourishing foods and warm
cIOthlng mas gone there IN recent
months from the hands of Mrs
Bartlett
This charming lady first was
known in Washington as the widow
of Mr.. M. Ogden Jones and lived
at 1721 H street. Here their daugh-
ter, Mrs. Peter, then Miss Caroline
Ogden Jones, made her debut. In
1904 Mrs. Jones married Prof. Sam
uel Franklin Emmons and after
his death she married the famous
sculptor. Paul Bartlett.
Mrs. Franklin Mott Gunther is
another of Washington's popular
hostesses spending some time
abroad She is in Rumania and
has set no date to return, though
she probably will be back during
the autumn.

RAIL FREIGHT RATE HIKE |5
 FISH THREAT

WASHINGTON, Sept. Is. - De- partment CT Agriculture spokesmen argued against proposed sharp in creases in rail freight rates today on TWO basic points.
 IA 25 percent increase in freight ratef will retard the identification of the nations farms.
 2.-Higher shipping charges will impose a heavy burden on the fish industry and will curtail seriously the movement of fishery products.
 Also, a statement filed by Harold II. Abel, Wyoming University train ed economist for the Production and Marketing Administration, said.
 Any increase in freight rates Of the proportion now proposed by railroads would in effect seriously rctard the growth of the frozen fish industry"
 Abel estimated that U. S.-Alaska production of fish and shellfish will increase from A billion pounds in l945 to 4.5 billion in 1946, and 4.6 billion pounds in 1947, and that rail shipments of fish products will increase in about the same pro- portion"
