year the District received 100000
for repairs. This year the
same amount was asked for.
but an additional item of 500. 900
for improvements was inserted. In
the house the latter item was cut
out. but the Senate committee added
So, 900 10 the repairs item. making
the appropriation SlJ0.oo0 for repairs.
Even If the amount stands at that
figure. many needed repairs to Dis
triCt schools will have to go over
another year. Though the Central
High School is to move into a new
building in two years. the big build
ing at Seventh and . streets would
still be a valuable, piece of school
property if kept up. But 1t would
take between 10000 and $4,000. ac-
cortiing to an estimate of the mu-
nicipal architect. TO put that build
ing into condition for continued oc-
cupancy. Such repairs cannot be
made within the present figure, and
for two years Central pupils will
have to continue their studies In L
rundown and almost dilapidated
building.
For New Ceilings.
As fast as possible with the funds
available. panel ceilings are being
installed into the schools. This Is
considered the only sure preventive
against falling plaster. The calls
thenic exercises held in the rooms
now is a severe test on the ceilings
and in the other buildings the vibra-
tions during the daily health exer-
c'ses are such that plaster ceilings
will not stand the strain.
An added burden Is placed on the
repair shop for the schools here be-
cause there is no provision in the
District laws requiring janitors to
make minor repairs. In many other
cities janitors must be able to attend
to miner ma tiers. like the adjusting
OF door knobs and small pieces of
carpentry work. Here the repair
shop is called for and a further drain
Tnade upon the limited repair fund.
Janitors do not even clean out boil
ers and smoke pipes. This must be
done by men sent out from the re-
pair shop.
The low pay of janitors Is an i'm
portant factor in this condition. II q
man can be found who can keep a
building reasonably warm and keep
IT reasonably clean, the Board of
Education is loath to part with him,
beCaus. IL is difficult to get a man
for the So per month paid in graded
schools who also will exercise a
careful supervision of the school
property.
Great Confusion Exists.
Great confusion exists in the mat
ter of repairs. Reports of needed
repairs are made by janitors. by
teachers. and by men from the re-
pair shop. All these must be re-
ported to the Franklin building.
. though the school officials have no
authority over the repairs depart
ment. which is under the office of
the municipal architect. An arrange
nent only recently was made by
whcih the officials might call up the
superintendent Of repairs directly in
case of emergencies without going
through the routine OF a report to
the Franklin building and having it
forwarded form there to the repair
shop.
1t was aSeiitted by Snowden Ash
ford. the municipal architect, that
such OF the older buildings as the
Gales, the Seaton, the Force. the
Wallach and the Henry might be
made more sanitry and safer II

OLD SCHOOLS ARE
MENACE TO PUPILS
Refusal of Congress to Provide
Funds. Even for Repairs,
Endangers Lives.

School buildings in Washington,
many of them already old, anti
quated. and in poor repair, are al
lowed to depreciate because of d
lack of funds for Improvements.
Many needed repairs cannot be
attended to promptly, because the
money available is enough only for
repairs that are absolutely neceS-
sary.
An archaic method of making a
blanket appropriation for repairs
and Improvements, and the e1emp-
ton of janitorS from making minor
repairs, are features that add to
the difficulty of keeping up sChoo!
property.
BY ]. R. HILDEBRAND.
Ey failure TO provide new school
buildings in Washington. and by
refusal to appropriate sufficient funds
TO keep up the old ones. Congress
makessit necessary to send children
of this city to many schools in poor
repair, with inadequate protection
against fire panics. and with insult
ficient sanitary precautions.
These facts were brought out by
an inquiry into the methods of max
ing repairs here following the COM
plant of Mrs. Fred Dubois and other
parents, of conditions at the Force
School.
Little Money Available.
Despite its many old buildings.
dating back in many cases TO the
late sixties and early seventies. less
money is appropriated in Washing
ton for repairs, per building. than
in any one of the seven largest
cities. New York. Boston. Cleve-
land. st. Louis Philadelphia, Chicago.
and Baltimore-all spend much more
than does Washington, in improve
ments, despite the fact that most of
these cities are equipped with com
paratively modern school buildings.
New York spends s2,027 - annually
+ in repairs for each building. That is
the largest expenditure. while the
next lowest city to Washington.
Cleveland, spends s63lSl. Washing
ton spends but S4S3.S.
While part of this discrepancy may
be accounted for by the larger build
ings in some Of these cities. a tabu-
lation of the cost of repairs per
room shows only Cleveland. with its
new buildings. behind the Capital
on a basis of the cost per room.
Commissioners Not Needed.
In the majority Of these cities an
additional fund is provided for i'm
provements. In Washington i'm
provements are included in the re-
pairs item, despite the efforts Of
the Commissioners this year to have
two separate funds created. Last
