Its purpose is to help defray their expenses next year to the session of the Imperial Council, which will be held in Toronto, Canada. Potentate Edwin C. Dutton estimates their trip will cost about $7,500, and he states that due to the expense of building and equipping Almas Temple's ney clubhouse the temple cannot draw treasury for this amount. Hovever he is all nobles of Almas and their host of friends to rally to the support of the bodies which have served in part at least to keep Almas Temple on the map and which do all the “hard work” connected with the local Shrine—and, Il ts sald, the nobles are Tesponding nobly.

WOMAN'S BENEFIT ASSCCIATION. Brightwood Review will meet tomor- row evening at & o'clock st the resi- dence of Mrs. Lillle Lambath, 6630 Georgia avenue, Columbia Review will give a benefit is While no request for funds for the purpose of the construction of a new armory for National Guard of the District of Columbia is included in the preliminary estimates to cover the expenses of the ol tion for the rear 1931, nevertheless the Guard officials are asking for a substantial increase in the armory lvpronflmon The preliminary figures prepared at the brigade headquarters were made public last week, but before they finally reach ngress there undoubtedly will be some slashing by the. District Commissioners and the Bureau of the Budget. The appropriation for . the current fiscal year for armory and camp was $13,500, while the Guard officials are asking for 1931 the sum of $31,580, an increase of $18,080. An Expllnll]on ac- companying this request says that it is mlmnua that the Guard will be re- 3 uired to vacate the present quarters luring 1931, if not before. While suit- able facilities for rental have not been located, the note further says that a garage building, which could be remod- eled to serve in a limited way has been located and is available at this time, It is further estimated, says the state- ment, that funds now paid for rental for the Government Hotel Bullding on the Union Station Plaza now used as an armory, will not meet the added ex- penses in connection with the operation of an armory, such as for fuel and light. These are now furnished from the central heating plant of the Gov- ernment hotels. ‘The anticipation of moving oui of the present armory was born of the knowl- edge that plans now are being made for razing all of the buildings between the Capitol Grounds and the station plaza as a part of the parkway for the former. Some of the Government hotel build- ings nearer the Capitol have been razed and those occupied by the Guard are on the program for destruction. Unless provision is made for armory facilities of some sort by the coming session of Congress, the Guard is likely to find itself entirely without a home, because officials have been unable to obtain quarters for the troops within the funds allowed by Congress for rent- al pu s. There was no indication at the brigade headquarters that the provision included in the estimates was a substitute for the plan to have Con- gress pass a bill authorizing the con- struction of a special bullding, designed for the use of the uoogs. on public grounds. It is probable, however, that some effort will be made to have Con- gress make such a provision. In the event that Congress should pass an en- -mmg act authorizing a new building, it will be some time before it can be eonstructzd In meantime, the training of the troops must go forward. No request is made in the estimates for permission to make a long-term lease for the garage building which is said to be available. Under present law the Guard officials may only make a lease from year to year. Because of this fact heretofore it hu im- possible to interest private clplul in the construction of a building espe- cially for armory purposes. Property owners, it sppears, did not want to con- struct a building when the Guard offi- cials could only give assurance that they could only rent it for a year at a time. Optimism over the present prospects of obtaining & new armory for the troops is expressed in a letter which Maj. Gen. Anton Stephan, commanding the local Guard, last week wrote to Charles E. Thomas. Discussing the lack of facilities for the training of the local troops, Gen. Stephan wrote: “This condition is one which Na- tional Guard authorities have striven for years to keep before the District au- thorities and tI United States Con- gress. The numerous commissiors, committees, etc., with their changing personnel, have undoubtedly been a serious handicap in securing favorable consideration on any of the numerous proposals which we have made. “I believe that at this time we have as members of the various agencies con- cerned those who are more conversant with our need of armory facilities and those who are more sympathetic in their feeling toward the National Guard than has been the case heretofore. “I deeply lnprechu yuur lnmut ln our welfare and hope that efloru of yourself and othem mmu in 1 defense, suitable armory hcfll'.les will be provided in the Dis- trict of Columbia.” An increase of only $120 is asked in the appropriation for personal services in connection with the maintenance of Lhe Gu-rd, ‘The present appropriation while the amount asked in l”l la us 070. For cleaning and repairing uniforms, arms and equipment and contingent expenses the same amount, $1,200 is asked. In Illl for $2,500 for ex- penses in connection with target prac- tice, tlu same as '.he current appropria- tion, a mflw is sought in the law will give the Guard officials au- thority to use fund for matches either within or wlthout the District of Columbia, and authorizing the issuance of service cards to Government em- ployes who participate in rifie matches.
