In his annual report TO the Commits
sioncrs, which has just been submitted.
W. P. Richards, District assessor, recon-
mends that the street railway. electric
light, and telephone companies OF the city
be required to pay an additional tax of /
per cent a yea. on their gross earnings
The companies now pay per cent an
nually.
Mr.. Richards also recommends annual
instead of trienniaI assessments of real
estate in the District. He says the tri-
ennial assessment system is all right in
rural communities. where assessment
values do not differ much from year
to YEAR but states that in cities the
annual system is much better.
According to the report. the triennial
assessment of 1912-l9l4 is $4,000 100 larger
than the assessment of l9O9-l9ll There
were loo appeals, but they amounted to
only about l per cent of the value of the
real estate assessed.

TEACHERS CHECK HELD UP.
Tally n. Holmes Pesents Claim for
Eight Months Work.

Officials of the public schools and the
District auditors Office are puzzling them
selves over whether Tally r. Holmes, in
structor in mathematics in NJ Street
High School, is entitled to an $500 claim
for eight months service as a teacher
last year. which has been held up at the
District building.
Holmes took an examination for a posi-
ton as teacher of mathematics in the
high schools, also qualifying in Latin as
n secondary subject. In November, 1910
Holmes was appointed as a Latin teacher
at the NJ Street High School, but when
the name was presented to the District
auditor, it was questioned on the ground
that Holmes was not taken from the
Latin list. but from the list of the math-
ematiCS teachers.
In order to straighten out the matter,
Holmes was appointed a second-grade
mathematics teacher at a recent meet
ing of the school board. When the check
for $500 was submitted to the auditor he
refused to pay it.

SAVING FOR THE DISTRICT.
item for GnrbaRe-reducInE Plant
May Be Included.

The wave of economy which has been
sweeping over the District Building dur
ing the past week or two has touched
another branch of the municipal work.
Maj. Judson announced yesterday that
among the District estimates for the
next fiscal year probably will be an item
for the establishment Of a municipal gar
bage-reducing plant.
Commissioner Judson has just returned
from his trip to Cleveland and Column
bus. where he inspected the municipal
asphalt plants OF those cities. While in
columbus he inspected the city garbage
reducing plant, which suggested the es-
tablishment of such a plant in Washing
ton.
At present the Washington Fertilizer
Company has the contract for disposing
of the city garbage. The annual cost is
s6S,400. In Columbus the annual cost is
only $4,000. The Commissioners believe
the municipal plant would save the Dis
trict thousands of dollars yearly.
The seeds OF the rubber tree have been
found to yield an oil very similar in its

That the position of stepographer,
