Business Boom in Washington.

But this summer il Is different.
Washington has business boom. II
looks like sure.enough genuine boom
and one that will be productive Of re-
suits, The thing has been tried before
tried many times--and has always fail
ed failed because the real sentiment of
the community was not back OF il. For
many years the attitude of minority
of the influential people has been that
Washington was a residential city, in
which oiiiee.holding and catering to
Office holders was the only desirable
business. Now, it would seem, trans
formation in their way OF thinking has
been wrought. Wholesale houses are
eagerly desired, and even manufactures,
which always have been discouraged are
invited to locate in the enyirons.
II the midsummer dream Of Wash
ington is realized, the capital may be-
come the commercial center OF a large
section Of the country 1t is referred
TO as the Gateway Of the South" and
as its ambition is progressive one,
plans already are under way for the
commercial conquest of territory to the
north and west. Washington has grown
to city Of 100000 without commerce or
industry, With commerce and industry
added. 1t may become metropolis in
fact as we'll as in theory.
For "City Beautiful"
Along with the movemen for a
Greater Washington" commercially,
there has come a revival of interest in
plans to make it the City Beautiful
of the world. If as much is accom-
plished in the next quarter of century
as has been accomplished in the 25
years just past, the American capital
will have distanced all its rivals in the
race for beauty.
1t was only few years ago that
Congress gave scantily and grudgingly
to the Identification Of Washington. 1t
was ans hard then to get few thousand
dollars to pave street as it is now to
secure millions for project of improve
ment, During the past five years al
most as much money as has been ex-
pended and authorized to be expended
as has been done in the previous hundred
years of the city's history. Not only is
the government building and planning
beautiful structures of classic design
but private enterprise is doing its full
