The Washington Sanitary Housing
COMPANY.

| To the Editor of The Star:
The report of meeting held at my
house Monday evening, published in The
| Star Tuesday, November 81, gives the as
sets of the Sanitary Housing Company as
S6,9S2. This is an error. The assets are
| $469S2 The company has paid per cent
| dividends upon all stock issued from the
| date of it's organization, under a charter
| from Congress granted in the spring of
| 1904. After paying the regular semi-an-
nual dividend in October last the treas
urers report showed surplus of $1,2S9
This. l think, is very good showing and
demonstrates the fact that money may be
safely invested In sanitary houses of the
type built by this company Van street
southwest The company was organized
for the purpose of furnishing sanitary
homes to the Industrious and respectable
day laborers" of the city at reasonable
rentals. Its twenty houses. containing
forty flats, have been continuously occu-
pied since their completion by colored
families The flats, containing three rooms
with good bath room supplied with hot
and cold water, good range in the
kitchen and a back yard with exit to the
alley, are rented for $3.50 to IS per month.
The object of the meeting Monday evening
was to discuss the best method of arous-
ing the interest of the public in this philan-
thropic enterprise, with view to securing
additional subscriptions to the stock of
the company, so that additional houses
may be built next summer. 1t was sug-
gested that the charter might be changed
so as to permit the company to pay per
cent dividends instead of t. but those
present were unanimously opposed to this
proposition. 1t thought that there
surely must be sufficient philanthropy and
civic pride among the citizens of Wash
inSton to support this enterprise upon a
basis of per cent dividends. 1t was voted
that a committee should be appointed to
solicit subscriptions to the stock of the
company with the object in view of raising
at least 100000 for the purpose of building
additional houses during the year 1907
The following named gentlemen have been
appointed upon this committee: Mr.. John
w. Foster, Mr. Charles ]. Bell, Mr.. John
Joy Edison, Mr.. S. w. Woodward. Mr. E.
Francis Riggs. Mr.. Thomas w. Smith and
Mr.. Simon Wolf.
