A Jact: At these, the two leading hotels in the Nation’s capital, Army and Navy men, statesmen, leaders of industry and promment men from all sections of the United States may be found in greater numbers, perhaps, than at any other hotels in the country.

This is even further borne out by the fact that at the exclusive Shoreham only one cigarette (a 25¢ brand) outsells Fatima.
