LIBERAL TO DISTRICT
Congress Not Expected to Cut
Commissioners Estimates.
ASK FOR $12,739,736.60
Only $10,719,173 Appropriated for
Expenses for Current Fiscal Year.
SCHOOL NEEDS FORM BIG ITEM

Figures Tomorrow.
SCHOOL NEEDS FORM BIG ITEM

While the subcommittee of the House
appropriations committee which is con-
sidering the Commissioners estimates for
the needs of the local government during
the next fiscal year. is only about hail
through with it's work. the impression
prevails among District officials and may
be said to be shared by the Commission
ers themselves that the municipality Is
to be treated literally by Congress this
year in the matter of appropriations.
Last year the appropriations subcom-
mittee consumed ten days in hearings on
the Commissioners estimates Ihere
have been but two days OF hearings on
the budget this session and the work Is
about half finished.
This. is taken as a favorable indica-
ton by District officials. The committee
members it is said, have investigated
carefully the various items submitted, but
have manifested no purpose to reduce the
estimates as extensively as was done
a year ago.
In view Of the fact that the Districts
unfunded debt will be extinsuished by
1916 and the local government Is said to
be getting opt OF debt faster than any
sress will be inclined to approve the bulk
Of the items contained in the estimates
for next year.
Ask for $12,739, 1860.
The Commissioners estimates for the
current fiscal year amounted to sl2Oo6,-
7ss, the appropriation bill. as finally
passed, carrying total of $lO'I19,173.
which was a reduction of about a million
and a quarter dollars.
For the fiscal year to begin July j
next the District heads estimate the nee
essary expenses of the District govern
70
A big per cent of the total appro-
priation request ed is for school needs.
There is well defined impression that
schools are TO accorded liberal treat
ment this year. 1t is believed that an
initial appropriation with which to COM
mence work on the proposed new central
high school, which is to cost more than
a million dollars, will be authorized.
Park View Residents Hopeful.
Members of the committee are said to
have manifested an interest in the item
Of S12S,OOO for the construction of six
teen-room building in Park View, and resi-
dents of that section are now more hope
IN, than ever that the improvement will
be authorized
The committee has considered the play
grounds items. but there Is belief that the
estimates for constructing swimming
nools on the Cardoza. Georgetown and
Rosedale grounds will not be allowed.
Reeinning tomorrow. the committee will
take up the health department estimates
Ito last work, in all probability, will be
to inspect the Districts city and suburban
streets. Estimates for street improve
ments are much higher than they were
wear ago. The Federation of Citizens
associations is interested in having the
street Improvement estimates approved
