Only About ST, $50 Has Been
Raised for Safe and Sane
Observance of the Day.

Plans for safe and sane Fourth OF
July will be aba ndOned unless Washing
tOnians respond to the committees ap-
peal for funds. There is absolutely no
other way out of the present situa ton.
The committee is discouraged. Since the
last published statement that there was
about 81 500 on hand and the quoted re-
marks of Commissioner Rudolph that no
one could have three-thousa dollar
or a five-thOuSa nd dollar celebration with
fifteen hundred dollars, only about a
hundred and fifty dollars has drifted in.
1t is said TO be very probable that I'M
less there is change of sentiment on
the part OF the citizens of Washington
this money will be returned 10 the don
ors- Instead of leading the country this
year i'll safe and sane Fourth of July
celebrations, Washington has just now
the appearance of trailing along miles
behind the procession.

Fireworks Would Cost So, 1000.

Even the fireworks that were planned
would cost 5000 and the medals for the
municipal games, the first of the kind
ever held here, would cost a small. but
evidently hard-to-get, sum of money.
There would be some money used on
bandstands-unless the bands drag their
own lumber with them and construct
their own benches on the spot.
The fireworks program as arranged by
j. Fred Kelley. chairman of the fireworks
committee. contemplates the ascension of
12U balloons, the explosion of hundreds OF
daylight bombs. The night program in
cludes thousands of absolutely new and
unique pyro:echnicS.
