Harold Candland Dies, Hot Shoppes Executive
Harold Arthur Candland, 59, vice president in charge of real estate with Hot Shoppes, Inc., since 1945, died yesterday at the Washington Sanitarium in Takoma Park after a long illness.
While still at the George Washington Law School, from which he graduated in 1934, he became, in 1930, secretary to the United States Public Buildings Commission. Upon the commission's assimilation into the Interior Department in 1933, his position was expanded to that of chief of the Division of Goverment Space Control in charge of finding housing space for each agency and branch of the rapidly expanding Government of the New Deal.
He left his post with Interior in late 1934 to become a special investigator with the Federal Housing Administration in San Francisco.
Served in World War II
From March, 1937, until being called into the Army in 1939, he was in private business as a realtor on the West Coast. He served in World War II as a captain at Fort Francis E. Warren in Wyoming. In 1945, he assumed his position at Hot Shoppes.
Mr. Candland was also active in the Mormon Church. He left Brigham Young University in his native Utah after his junior year to take charge for three years of missionary work in England, returning in 1928 to finish his studies.
Local Church Leader
He was also for many years a bishop of the Chevy Chase Ward Chapel of the Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter-Day Saints.
He was married here in 1932 to Eva Marriott, sister of J. Willard Marriott, Hot Shoppes president. The Candlands lived at 3817 Inverness drive in Chevy Chase.
Besides his wife he leaves his sons, Harold A., jr., of Scarsdale, N.Y.; John M., of 2610 Lindell street, Silver Spring; David Noel, a senior at Brigham Young University, and Charles W., at home. He also leaves two daughters, Valorie, a freshman at Brigham Young, and Eva M., who lives at home.
He also leaves three brothers, Wendell H., Willis E. and Ben Candland; and four sisters, Mrs. John Burton, Mrs. H.M. Start, Mrs. J.H. Thompson and Ruth Candland.
Funeral services will be at 1 p.m. tomorrow at the Chevy Chase Ward Chapel of the Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter Day Saints, Western avenue and Kirkside drive, Chevy Chase, with burial in Parklawn Cemetery.
