THE EMASCULATED DISTRICT BILL

Ii was not an eXtravagant budget that the Dis
trict Commissioners prepared asking total of about
Sl4,354000 for years conduct and betterments in
this city; yet the House Appropriations Committee
has pared over S300000O from it. Ii means that the
town is TO be restricted to the bare necessities fo-
its continued existence. Expansion betermens, en-
trance into new fields of social service and larger
efficiency are vetoed.
The National Administrations program of making
a model Washington, in which President Wilson has
been credited with taking active personal interest
IS thrown TO the winds
The Commissioners asked money to build a mu-
nicipal hospital which is necessity and would
reduce the utmat> expense of caring for certain
classes of public charges. 1t is refused.
They asked means to establish municipal lodg-
ing house. in line with the best practice of the time
in progressive cities. 1t is refused.
They asked funds to build modern fish wharf
which is greatly needed. These were refused.
They asked appropriation to equip and open a
hospital for nebriates which likewise is not radical
ism, but merely modern method of caring for one of
the grave evils of society 1t was refused.
New bathing beaches went the same way.

AFTER HUERTA--VILLA?

month ago the alternative to Huerta was Car
Carranza himself does not seem to be really
Objectionable character. We could, then confne our
attention to getting Huerta out of Office But it is
significant of Mexcos difficulties that few victories
by one of the Consttutonalst leaders lieutenantS
should have thrown the leader himself out of the
limelght.
This mornings reports of Villas behavior at
Chihuahua probably much exaggerated. We may
doubt whether that town contains ST. 100000 de-
partment store to be looted: But his record from
Juarez on has been increasingly bad and with it,
unfortunately, his Importance as parsonage with
whom this country might sooner later have to deal
increasingly great.
The whole American public has long been
vaguely asking itself, After Huerta, wnat?" and
postponng the answer in favor of the sufciency of
the days own evil. But the glimpse of the possible
future we are now getting is not pleasant one.
The Washington times., 1913-12-16

vented by requirement that any surplus of rev.
enues which might be applicable to this purpose,
shall be covered back into the Federal Treasury.
There has been some misunderstanding owing to
the fact that the measure contains appropriation
for making valuation of the public utilities OF the
city, under direction of the Public Utilities Commits
sion 1t is explained that 100000, which is desired
for this purpose, will be authorized by the urgent
deficiency appropriation measure hat will make
the cash quickly available, which is altogether
desirable. The Commissioners asked $4,000 for
this purpose, and understood to be very well salts
Fl. d with the 100000 that is assured them.
Such strictly practical proposals the construc-
ton of municipal warehouse at cost of SS6,50O,
the preparation of plans for a municipal market,
preparation of plans for modern garbage disposal
plant-all these are eliminated from the measure.
How on earth is Washington to be made more
than horrible example among American Cities if
such projects as these get to the first stage
of legislative consideration?
Do the gentlemen know, who refuse appropria-
tons for such facilities as these that garbage dis
posal, for example, is made in some American cities
a source of actual profit?
