CONTAGIOUS DISEASE
WORK TO Be KEPT UP
Health Officials Say They Can Get
Along Until July, When New
Fund Is Due.

Directing attention to the resolution
which provides that all communications
for the heads of Government depart
ments, Commissioners and officials shall
be addressed to Congress through the
President, Vice President Sherman to-
day returned to the Commissioners their
request that the appropriation Of $4,000
for salaries in the contagious disease
service be increased TO $4,000. Acting
upon this suggestion. the Commis-
sioners today announced that the COM
munication would be sent through the
proper channels.
In the event that Congress refuses to
provide additional funds the contagious
disease service will be seriously ham
pered. according to District officials. but
will not be discontinued. 1t viii be nee
essary to discharge number OF en-
ployes, and to exercise the utmost econ
omy in every direction, but every effort
will be made to keep the service in eX-
istence until July /. when an appropria-
ton Of 5000 becomes available.
One of the largest items of expense
has been for the maintenance OF Ana
cleto Palabay, the Filipino leper. Three
guards have been constantly employed.
in addition to other expenses. In the
expenditure Of the fund for personal
services II was not anticipated that the
District would have a leper to care for
and this fact, according to health Of
fciaIs. has resulted in a heavy drain
on the fund, which otherwise might
have been used in the prevention and
control of other contagious diseases.

CHIEF FINDS
GREAT CONGESTION
IN PENSION OFFICE
Wooden Shelves, Piled High
With Documents, Would
Make Fighting Difficult.

Declaring that in view of congested
conditions, the Pension Office, notwith-
standing its fire-proof construction
would be seriously endangered in case
of fire, Fire Marshal Nicholson today
submitted to the Commissioners a report
of an inspection of the building, made
in response TO the request of Clement
ticker, chief clerk of the Department
of the Interior.
The worst conditions exist on the
fourth floor according to the report.
Wood shelving, extending from the floor
to the ceiling and separated by narrow
aisles, is filled with official documents,
it is said. resulting in a condition that
would make 1t difficult for the fire de-
partment to work in the event of fire.
The marshal recommends that the
storage of documents in the wooden
shelving and file cases be discontinu-
ed and that more suitable rooms be
provided as near the ground as pos
sible.

FIGHT IS ON TO SAVE
NOTED PLAYGROUND
FOR CITY CHILDREN
Friends of Tots in Race With
Builder for Tract on
Columbia Road.

A race to buy the big northwest
corner lot at Columbia road and
Fourteenth street, now used as the
Columbia Heights playground, is on.
The race is between a builder who
is trying to acquire the property for
the purpose Of destroying the trees
and putting up a large apartment
house and men interested in the
Fairgrounds Association.
According to A. c. Moses. president
of the association, the owners of the
property, who are now in Europe.
have just been cabled an offer for it.
If this offer is accepted, it will mean
an end of the most attractive play
ground in the city.
But steps are being taken todav tn
prevent the sale TO the would-be buiId-
er OF an apartment house In order tn
90 this IT is necessary for some one to
pay more foT the property than the
oullder Is willing to pay, and this is
Just what Mr.. Moses proposes to do
II 1t be possible.
Hopes to Form Syndicate.
Moses is undertaking to form a syndl-
cate TO purchase the whole property at
the asking price, provided the citizens
IN tie vicinity are willing to subscribe
Gil oHlOuHI SuIIClent TO pay the interest
upon the investment and taxes, pending
the taking over of the Fairgrounds as a
part of the city's park system Per-
maps the property may be exempted
from taxation.
According to the figures of the asso-
citation, the Columbia road playground
is patronized by the population for a
radius OF twelve squares. Not only
do thousands of children come to make
use of the equipment which has been in
stalled, but scores of mothers with their
infants are in the habit of taking ad-
vantage Of the shade afforded by the
grove of century old trees. 1t is the
belief Of officers Of the Fairgrounds As
sociation that these mothers and the
parents of the children who use the
playground and also every resident in
the vicinity who would like to see the
place preserved would be willing to sub
scribe small sum- say so cents a
month, or less, toward a fund which
would be used to pay interest and taxes
Even 10 cents a month from each of
100 families in the vicinity is said to
be sufficient to cover these charges.
The property contains 23,lO0 square
feet OF ground, facing 154 feet on Four
teenth street and 150 feet on Columbia
road. 1t Is understood that II is being
held at $4,000, or about S2I5 a square
1oot. Should the Government take over
the property at any time, the syndicate
would put 1t in at cost. Mr. Moses said
today that he would be one of twenty
or OF ten to help buy the ground.

Fletcher D. Proctor as a National Cap
tain of Industry.
[Rutland News.l

Significant and exceptional as is the
record of Fletcher Dutton Proctor in
public affairs, his great lifework was
his part in the development of the bust
ness OF the Vermont Marble company to
it's present gigantic proportions. What
his father raised from wrecks of pre-
ceding enterprises in the marble dis
trict and started upon upward courses,
he, by the closest application and in
dustry as the executive head, carried
forward on a broad policy of expansion.
When he first became connected with
the Vermont Marble company, its en-
ployes were numbered in hundreds; now,
there are between three and four thou
sand. Although located in Vermont, his
enterprise came to have no limits OF
state boundaries. In its ramihcations
and branches 1t extends from Alaska tc
the gulf of Mexico and from the Atlantic
to the Pacific seaboard. And, in full
justice to all otherm men 1t may be sale
that through the relations Of the vas
business in which he was the dominan'
spirit, Fletcher Dutton Proctor was al
much a national figure as any residen
Vermonter of his time.
