A—6 « SHRINE CONCLAVE -~ PLANS SPEEDED R. P. Smith, Director Gen- eral, Believes $6,000,000 Will Be Spent Here. From $6,000,000 to $9,000,000 will be spent in Washington by visitors to the Shrine conclave here June 8 to 15, it was estimated last night by Robert P. Smith, potentate of Almas Temple and president and director general of the Convention Committee. At the same time Smith announced completion of his committee, includ- ing officers, board of directors and chairmen of subcommittees. Referring to the financial advantage to Washington from the convention, Smith said it had been estimated that the average convention visitor spends $60 during his stay. “Personally, I think that at this convention the average will be closer to $100,” he said. “Even considering the lower average, however, it is easy to see how much will be spent.” “There will be at least 300,000 extra meals served daily and Washington will have to provide sleeping quaners; for at least 100,000 visitors. This num- ber may be increased to as many as 150,000. Hope to Repay Guarantee. Referring to the $150,000 guaranty fund being sought by the Finance Committee, headed by Francis G. Ad- dison, jr., Smith said “This is exactly what the name implies, a guaranty fund. We hope to repay every cent of it and hope that any of you who have not contributed will hasten your contributions as we need this money | THE SUNDAY STAR. WASHINGTON, D. C. MARCH 3, 1935—PART ONE.

He's grown steadily and very evenly since then. In 1932 he had doubled his stature. And did he grow rich? When he was 63 millions in size, he made 12 billions a year. By 1929 he shot that up to 85 billions a year—seven times as much. He did run into hard times and at the end of 1932 his income wasn't 7 times, but 3 times what it was in the 90's. Of course, he had to keep his standard of liv- ing up to his income. He had to have schools and colleges and better water supply, more police and navies and consuls, and he cheerfully paid more than 9 billions a year for these necessities at one | time But look at the growth of his income!
