So far as wartime personnel concerned, Washington and the nation are far ahead of that spring in 1917. There are ap- proximately a million persons in the District of Columbia and its | cuburbs, more than twice what | it had 20 years ago before most | of the World War expansion had | been eliminated. There are ntasly a quarter of a million persens working for the govern- ment here—and throughout the coumtry apd foreign lands more than 800,000 additicnal. Thereé are ncw abcut 2,000,000 persons in the armed forces. Ancther million is enrolled for lian | defense and that figure is ex- pected tc double immediately. Housing and office space jare at such a premium that stories of overcrowding and highi jrontqls would fill a volume.
