Fifteen years ago Washington's population was something like 330,-00It had the air and atmosphere of a southern city. It was easygoing and unhurried and its pulse quickened only when congress convened. It was a city of tourists, the native population looking upon them with condescendingly good humor. Today Washington's . population numbers over a million, and in the metropolitan area which spills over Into Maryland and Virginia across the District of Columbia line, the total population runs something like 1,300,000. These people have flocked Into the capital city from every corner of the nation, once the world, and today Washington is truly cosmopolitan in population if not in its physical plant Former Sees Blame as Casualty ct "office. pts v ed Q, My son has a He Is" a veteran of discharge.
