Mr. \. o. Tingley, the secretary, was pres
ent.
The executive committee reported that it
was considered to be unwise for the asso-
citation to take any action on the sugges-
ton of another association OF the District
OF Columbia III respect to the exemptions
from taxation in the District that prevail
at this time.
The committee on streets. sidewalks and
lights was instructed to have introduced n
bill in Congress for the opening OF w street
from North Capitol to list street west.
The same committee was also Instructed
by resolution to make an effort to have
abated the dust nuisance on North Capitol
street between G street and New York ave-
nue. The railroad track over these several
squares was shown to be higher than the
balance of the roadway, producing hol-
low which has been found to be difficult to
keep clean by means of the usual street
sweeper. The association was recently
promised that this portion of the street
would be kept sprinkled in order to pre-
vent the flying of the dust. An effort has
also been made to have that portion OF the
