Public discussion Of measures affecting
the interests of the city Is always to be de-
sired and the action of the Northeast
Washington Association in calling meet
Ing to discuss the proposal to secure loan
OF a9,ooooeo to be expended in improve
nents Of the city Is to be commended
With a view to promote public discussion,
and to afford means of arriving. as nearly
as possible, at what the sentiment Of the
public Is. The Star has given space to the
views of both OF those who oppose and
those who favor the project. There were
general reasons offered for efectfng such a
loan which appealed forcibly to many. 1t
was represented that improvements which
are demanded by the growth of the city.
would require a much greater outlay II de-
layed until they were reached in the reg
ular course Of appropriations. than they
would IL they could be undertaken at once.
30 the loan has been urged as a measure
Of economy which would save the tax pay
ers a heavier burden In the future.
On the other hand citizens more inter-
ested In the improvement of the city within
its present limits than in the proposed ex-
tensions have urged with force that the
streets and sections yet unimproved inside
the city deserve attention before any large
outlay Is made upon new territory. Then
there are other reasons urged which have
nldue tdpof ORGANIZATIONS ana otner bodies
more or less hostile TO the project An i'm
preston which seems to have Influenced
the Northeast Washington Association In
its action. that the proposal. IL not so in
tended. would in effect, benefit more direct
ly persons interested in property along GER
tain proposed extensions. has undoubtedly
had much to do with creating a sentiment
adverse to the loan. So far, the discussion
appears TO have developed an opposition to
the loan project so strong that those who
favor 1t must rally their forces and make
a good showing II they hope to win their
case at the bar Of the public. At any rate
debates such as that conducted by the
Northeast Washington Association cannot
but have a good effect. for If the conclu-
sions reached happen not to be those that
should prevail, 1t will result only In bring
ing to their feet citizens who can point out
the right course. Fair and honest discus
sion. IL II Is general, can hardly fail in the
end to result in benefit to the community.
