MORE SCHOOL NURSES
ASKED FOR DISTRICT
Society for Prevention of Tubercu-
losis to Push Request Before
Congress.

Earnest efforts to secure the passage
of the item in the District appropriation
Dill providing for five school nurses will
be made by the Association for the Pre-
Venuon OF tuberculosis, it was decided
at a meeting of the organization held
last night. 1t was stated that Washing
ton is one of the few cities of it's size
which have not adopted this modern
safeguard for the health of their school
children.
The association also pledged itself to
support the increased appropriation for
the health department, which has been
approved by the Senate committee on ap-
propositions.
Work Is Outlined.
More ample provisions for caring for
children infected with tuberculosis, In
Guiding cooperation with the principal
hospitals of the city. will be made, it was
decided. The question Of proper housing
conditions. provided in the proposed al
ley bill, as a preventive measure will be
investigated more fully. particularly In
relation to the death rate from tubercu-
losis. Gen. George NJ. Sternberg laid
stress on the contention that in abolish
ing the alley as a place of residence
great care must be taken to avoid over
Crowding on the street.
His attention was called to the fact
that there are at present many houses
for rent in Washington at low figures,
and that if restrictions against over
crowding were made those of the labor
ing classes employed at modest wages
could safely make these houses available
for residence.
Those who were present at the meet
ing and who took part in the discussion
included Gen. George NJ. Sternberg, pre-
siding: William H. Baldwin, Emile Ber-
liner, DR.. G. w. Cabaniss, DR.. William

Law Not of Their Seeking.

I'VE did not solicit nor were we direct
ly or indirectly a party to the enact
ment of the law over eleven years ago.
or to the institution Of the proceedings
pertaining to the taking of our homes.
We are now and have been ever since
IN the hands and at the mercy of the
government, and during all these years
our property has been going to waste,
due to the governments action.
I'VE have, from time to time, without
protest acquiesced in all that has been
done-the values fixed by the commission
duly authorized by and appointed in ac-
cordance with the law. the approval OF
the findings by the Supreme Court and
the appropriation by Congress.
From the beginning because of the
uncertainty of the ultimate action of the
government, we have not been justified
or able TO make such permanent i'm
provenents or even repairs as would
make our property habitable. tenantable
and profitable. District authorities have
condemned and ordered houses torn
down Occupants have been forced to
vacate. Others remain at the risk of
their health and even their lives. AS an
instance there were thirteen cases of
diphtheria in one block. which the physi-
clans in attendance attributed to these
conditions solely. We have been harassed
and embarrassed by increased taxes and
accrued interest on mortgage Many
have been forced to assign their inter-
ests, and foreclosures are pending and
threatened. We have been put to graf
expense for expert witnesses and attor-
neys fees in presenting our cases in the
condemnation proceedings and obtaining
abstracts Of title, this latter at the sug-
gesuon of the Department of Justice Of
dcials.
Urge Speedy Action.
Therefore, with the knowledge that
excited the sympathy of all who have a
true knowledge of conditions-and be-
lieving that the President and Congress
sincerely desire that no injustice be done
US, we humbly petition, beg and urge
that such speedy action be taken as will
