Estimates Made for the Fairgrounds
the Ensuing Year.

The Commissioners have received from
the Washington Fairgrounds Association
the estimate for that branch of the District
service for the next fiscal year, beginning
July 1. 1908, in which total appropriation
of $262, $40 is asked for. This sum is ex-
actly $1S2,S4O more than was appropriated
for the Fairgrounds movement for the pres
ent fiscal year. and according to the esti-
mates 1t is evidently the intention of the
association to make big strides in the next
year.
For the present year the Fairgrounds
Association was allotted SO, 600 for the pur-
chase and improvement of sites for four
school divisions. For next year the associa-
ton makes the request for s1S6, 600 for this
purpose. For the present year 5000 was
appropriated for the equipment, mante-
nance and supervision OF these grounds;
next year the association wants 500 for
these purposes.
In asking for this big appropriation it is
explained by the association that this in
crease is imperative; that In addition to the
5000 appropriated this year fully $4,000
will have been raised by the association.
and that through the purchase and lease
of other grounds there will be at least three
additional Fairgrounds in operation next
year. 1t was also pointed out that Pitts
burg appropriated $4,000 for the mainte-
nance and supervision OF its Fairgrounds
movement this year.
The sum OF $4,000 Is requested with
which to install swimming pool, bath
houses, storage and toilets at the Rose
dale playground. 1t is explained that in
other cities all such Fairgrounds as that
at Rosedale contain swimming pools, which
are the most popular features.
The other new items included in the es-
Inmates are: 5000 for grading. Planting
Of hedges and trees and other improve
ments at Rosedale; $4,000 for erection of
building for shower baths. toilets. lockers
and stores at Cardoza SITE 81 600 for the
improvement Of the James Creek canal
site; $40 for Office rent and $500 for cleri-
cal help.
These last two items Of expense have been
heretofore borne by the Washington Play
grounds Association.

LOWER RATES JUSTIFIED,
W. c. Dodge Discusses Reduction Of
Insurance Premiums.
Editor The Washington Herald:

Editor The Washington Herald;
When I saw the statement that the
local rates for insurance were to be re-
duced. # struck me as very sensible
thing to do. as every one knows. and as
the records show, the risk and loss from
fires in Washington are very much less
than in other cities.
This is due to our unusually wide
streets and TO our excellent fire dapart-
ment In cities having narrow streets
it is not an unusual thing for a fre to
cross the street and burn buildings on
the opposite side. especially when there
is a strong wind. During the forty-seven
years that / have resided here I have no
recollection Of single instance IN which
fire here has crossed a street. It is,
therefore, obvious that the rates here
ought to be less than in other cities just
in proportion as the risk is less.
Formerly / had my property insured at
reasonable rates BY agents who repre-
sented mostly foreign companies, but
when the board OF underwriters was or
ganized the rates We're nearly if not quite
doubled l considered that most unrea-
sonabie, and transferred my insurance rs
our two mutual companies. who have had
it ever since, a period of sixteen years
One benefit Of patronizing our local conf
panies instead of foreign ones is that the
money paid for premiums is retained and
used 10y cur own citizefs. whereas that
paid to foreign companies is taken away
and used elsewhere. and. OF course. Is OF
no benefit TO us. except the commissions
paid 10 the LEGAL agents.
Whatever may be the outcome Of the
present movement. ii Is perfectly clear
that the rates here ought not TO be gov
erned by the rates elsewhere, and that
they can be safely reduced. and ought
70 be. W. c. DoDGE.
