I ANNOUNCING THE *REOPENING OF THE GRILL ROOM Under Huston House HOMES TAKEN FOR SOLIERS'_FAMILIES The British Government Commandeers Hotels, Residences, and Public Buildings for Officers' Wives OCCUPANTS REQUIRED TO MOVE By Hal O'Flaherty, United Press Staff Correspondent. London, Oct. 14 -(By mail.)-Offic- ers' wives and families, left in straight- ened circumstances, are being cared for in a magnificent manner by the British government. Private hotels, boarding houses, residences and public buildings are being commandeered daily for occupancy by families of fighting men.' The method of securing these places is causing owners some inconvenience but in all cases the first complaints are followed by cheerful acquiescence. A private hotel in Brunswick Square which has been the home of three Un- ited Press correspondents, was taken over by the government today after only foyer days notice. Henceforth, it will be the residence of the families of nine English army officers. The lessees of the Brunswick Square house were actually flabbergasted when government agents told them to evacuate with all of their guests, who were requested that evening to find new homes within two days. There was consternation among the femin- ine guests, two of whom had been re- cently saddened by the deaths of rela- tives by German bullets. However, after the first flurry and when the ob- ject of the move became clear, the grumbling ceased. At least fifteen peo- ple are pounding London's pavements searching for new homes today, realiz- ing that they are helping the gov- ernment provide for those whose need is great. To compensate the owners or les- sees of commandeered buildings, the government allows a certain portion of the yearly rent. The furniture and servants are taken over with the build- ings, the government becoming active head of the hotel or residence. The empire's agents who inspect the pre- mises to be used by officers' families are skilled in the work, for they in- variably take over those containing 'every convenience. Six months ago, London newspapers contained scores of advertisements asking homes for officers' wives. The little "ads" were pitiful in a way, as each suggested the picture of a nerv- ous and fear stricken woman who had waved farewell to a husband going to the front, smiling bravely until the train pulled out and then sobbing her way to some, strange hotel. Today these advertisements have practically disappeared. The official heart of the government has been touched and henceforth the men at the front will know that their families are in good surroundings. HGOTIS MADE CITY MANAGER irst University Graduate in Munici- pal Administration at Beaufort, S. C. Harrison Gray Otis, the first candi- date for the new degree of M. S. in municipal administration in the Uni- versity last year, is gaining fame as the city manager of Beaufort, S. C. Otis did graduate work last year in the University, and then spent over a year in studying the methods of city managers in Jackson and Cadillac, Mich., and Dayton and Springfield, O. In August, 1915, after the dismissal of the first city manager because of a political fight of a bitter sort, Mr. Otis was appointed to the city managership of Beaufort. The first year under his management has ended with complete satisfaction to the city, and not once has the cry of politics been raised.
