More Than $50 Members and Shows
Great Promise.

the question Of suffrage in the dis
trlct, They feel It is largely due
to their efforts that the question
has been so thoroughly agitated.
The association took an equally
stauncH stand on the taxation ques-
ton and stood for half snd half'
as a relief measure. However. they
hold the suffrage question separate.
and meantime are working with
all their effort for its realization.
The association in its babyhood
had the courage to stand against
the Borland amendment In behalf
OF the citizens of the District.
The association last year asserted
It had discovered that a sum OF
money is In the Treasury of the
United States which rightfully be-
longs TO the citizens of D. O.
That this be returned to the Dis
triet with 2 per cent interest and
used Tor the erection of public
schools in this District Is the as
sociation's aim.
Fight for Good MIX.
Another resolution. individual to
cordingly, highly tpriaed by IT, is
Its effort for the Standardization Of
milk in the District. Health De-
partment bulletins for some time
have shown 80 per cent as the high
est rating on milk. and that only a
small percentage measures nearly
that high. The Association Is,
therefore, struggling for a legal
standard for milk and its handling" :"
While there are no momentous
nights nor astounding achievements
In the history of the Kalorama Cit
izens' Association so far, It has in
Its few years OF existence taken
dignified and definite stands on mat
ters Of policy and on important
issues, and has backed those
stands with equally noble support.
Furthermore. it has initiated in its
own meetings questions of concern
10 all the District, and which found
recognition and consideration in
many other associations, and even
by the authorities of the govern
ment. And thus its record is un-
usually bright for so young an as
ISOLATION, and its promises for fu-
ture achievement still greater.
