It was not until after Norway failed to investigate, Chamberlain said, "that His Majesty's ships took action.

The hotel lobby is ample and will be the pride of our city. The kitchen has been pronounced to be the best located with reference to the dining room and to the other rooms of the hotel. I will say much more convenient than any hotel we have visited.

The din ing room is ample and will seat as diners 100 people with plenty of rooms and for banquets or special occasions it will seat 200 people comfortably. Like all modern hotels of today this hote will be equipped with a cocktail bar that will be a credit to any hotel.

For this reason there are many subscribers who are not qualified to vote, but many of them are paying as they find it convenient. It should be under- stood that there were consider- able expenses in the organizing 0f the company and the surveys necessary to determine the na ture and the size of the hotel that are above the contract pri- ces. Previous to the organization 0f the hotel company a citizen's committee employed a competeivt 1 m.v 4Ua and jts hotel needs and consid- erabe expense was necessary, This was assumed by the hotel company.

It has been paid. The djrectovs secured the services of mgu Phillips, an experienced ho- tel man. to advise on the furn- jshings and the finishing of the hotel, believing that it would be a better building and better equipped if we had the advice of an pvnerienced hotel man. Fur- tu0r Mr Phillins rnnferred with the architects in the drawing or the nlariS 0 the building.
