ISURCED FOR CITY
Charles W. Fairfax Says
Present Facilities in Cap
itaI Are Inadequate.

1.-THE National Capital should be the
best lighted city in the world,' declared
Charles w. Fairfax, president OF the
Real Estate Brokers Association. IN
urging that better lighting facilities
should be given the city by an appro-
priation from Congress.
Here are located the heads Of our
nations government as well as the am
bassadors and representatives from for
eign countries. Every protection and
convenience should be provided to make
this the ideal place of residence, so that
this condition may reflect throughout the
world"
Facilities Not Up to Standard.
Mr.. Fairfax said the present street.
lighting facilities of the city are made
ouate and that they do not measure up
to the standard of other large cities:
I've must improve this condition, and
those in authority should remedy the
defect. The frosted globes should be
replaced by those OF clear glass 10 per
area" he said. Change the electric
globes more frequently and those or a
lower candle power might give greater
light at a lower cost to the taxpayer.
He said the extensive use VI tile
streets and avenues of washington Tor
pedestrian and automobile traffic at
night brings this subject to the front.
Congress Should Provide.
Congress must provide the money to
protect the residents and visitors mere
against injury and damage caused by
accidents.
"The members of the Real Estate
Brokers' Association always are active
in the steady expansion of this city IN
all directions. They realize that Well
lighted streets enhance the deslrablhty
of a location and bring to the govern
ment in the way Of taxation splendid
returns on the cost for such improve
ment."
