Trailer Camp Families
In. East Potomac Park
|Gef Eviction Notices

Trailer residents In the Tourist
Camp in East Potomac Park today
are being given notice to vacate.
AS q result Of sharp criticism of
the camps sanitary facilities made
by the United States Public Health
Service, Superintendent of National
Capital Parks Irving Root ordered
the site back on two-week limi-
tation basis.
From now on, transients may stay
in the cabins for a period not ex-
ceeding two weeks. Those persons
who occupied the 100 trailers on a
permanent basis. will have to move.
The eviction notices are being
issued by Government Services, Inc,
operator Of the camp site. GSI
acted on orders of Mr.. Root.
From 1920 until the start of the
war, the camp was used as a tourist
site, but during the war when hous-
ing accommodations were hard to
find, GSI permitted families to stay
for an indefinite period. But Mr..
Root ordered this practice stopped
when the health service found the
area unsuitable for permanent oc-
cupancy from q health standpoint.
Many Of the residents to be evicted
are former servicemen who are oc-
cupying the trailers with their fam
lilies. Spokesmen for the group said
they have arranged a meeting for
some time this week with the Sem
ate Civil Service Committee to pro-
test the custer order. The spokes-
men said that the eviction order
will put us out on the streets with
nowhere to CO."
Park officials, however, said that
a survey of commercially operated
trailer camps here indicated that
they could absorb the trailers on
the East Potomac Park site. This
was disputed by the occupants, who
said the survey was made about a.
month ago before the seasonal influx
of tourists got under way. Most of
these camps are almost filled, they
contend.
