Funds for Lighting Of Streets
insufficient for City's Needs

this year. For Congress has cut out
$4,000 for the lighting of the High
way bridge and stipulated that that
expense shall come out of the $780,
600 lump sum for local street light
ing.
Hardly a week passes that the en-
gineer department does not receive
number of requests for new street
lights. A great many Of these have
to be turned down because of the
limited appropriation.
The limited sum now being allowed
the District by Congress for street
lighting wG>i1d not go as far as 1t
does were it not for the fact that
the city enjoys an extremely low
rate for gas, which is used in half Of
the existing street lights.
There are two factors which pre-
clude the installation in Washing
ton Of lights that give maximum
service at minimum cost. These fac
tors are first, the planting of shade
trees along the street curbs, and, sec
ond. the law against the stringing OF
overhead wires
lie IHc SHduc lTcOS--" hlth SNSt
one will admit are an asset and an
attraction in Che nations capital
make it impracticable to use types
of street lamps that could otherwise
be installed. Pendant lamps could be
strung over the center of street in
tersections to great advantage but
for the law against unsightly wire
construction. The prohibition of eX-.
posed wiring, however, also Is ad-
mittedly a desirable thing
District officials feel that Congress
in appropriating for street lighting
should bear in mind the fact that the
National Capital cannot resort to
methods of street lighting more eco
nomically but not in keeping with the
surroundings at the seat Of govern
ment.
At the present time there are ap-
proximately $500 electric street
lights and about 10000 gas lamps.
The hope of District officials is that
the extra $4,000 now in the District
bill will not be disturbed by the
conferees, so that these numbers may
be increased.

nj provements there is no
| Y branch Of the District gov
ernment more in need of at
tention than the street lighting and
electrical inspection department.
Warren B. Hadley. electrical en-
gineer. gave striking proof of that
need in one sentence when h said:
'The District spends less than 81
per capita on street lighting"
According to Mr.. Hadley, 1t is diff
cult tc obtain statistics to make a
comparison of cities in street light
ing because of the varying systems
of illumination and methods of han
ding the lighting problem.
There are cities, however, that al
lot as much as So per capita for
street lighting. Washington, with a
population of approximately $4,000.
has for street lighting during the
current fiscal, year $430,000. A large
percentage Of that $430,00O must be
expended for maintenance of exist
ing lights, including the cost of gas
and electric current, leaving only a
small sum for new lamps.
In the new appropriation bill now
in conference between the House and
Senate this lump sum is not increased,
but there is special item of 100000
for new lights, which will permit of
some improvement in the lighting
system.
1t will be impossible, however. to
put new lights on every street where
they are needed with an preparation
of only $4,000. The Commissioners,
realizing this fact. asked in their
estimates for $4,000. and also raised
the current lump sum from $4,000
to $441. 200.
The budget bureau did not change
either of these important increases,
but when the bill emerged from the
House and Senate and went before
the conference, the lump sum esti-
mate had been put back to $430,000,
and the special $4,000 item had been
cut to 100000.

SHOOTING STARS.
BY PHILANDER JOHNSON.
The Chorus.

The chorus.
I wish. the merry villagers again would
come to town
And sing about the harvest time and
brimming ale so brown.
I'd like to see them join the dance with
unaffected cheer
And carol, "Tra Ia la"-instead of
phrases somewhat queer.
Those merry villagers have left the
footlights and the farm.
The jazzy pace increases till it fills us
with alarm.
The weary business man wants pep
his state of mind to ease.
No one would think of singing IRA
Ia la! in days like these.
There are beauties placed before us in
a wonderful array.
They cannot sing, but, oh, how loud
that orchestra can play!
And yet I wish that I could have q
chance to hear once more
The merry villagers sing "Tra Ia la"
just as Of yore.

ADVOCATE BRIDGE
ACROSS RIVER AT
WENGER ADDITION
New High School Starts Agita'
tion-Chamber of Com.
merce Behind Project.

Following the decision OF the To-
cal board Of education 20 build
100000 new high school on the
Wenger addition, Lincoln way e, \
movement has been started TO nave
a bridge built across the St. Joseph
river connecting the north with the
south side at point within easy dis
lance Of the addition. John W.
SCHNEIDER, president OF the Misha-
waka chamber of commerce, will
bring the matter before the mem
bers Of that body at the next meet
ing.
During 1915, at the height OF the
European war, the county council
authorized the issuance Of $4,000
bonds for the purpose Of erecting
the bridge between the two sides Of
the river with its south side terminal
at the Lincoln Gardens property
which adjoins the Miami Country
club Charles W. Cole, civil engineer,
was authorized to draw plans Of the
proposed structure which he did and
which repOse in his desk 20 this day.
Bids for the work were asked and
contracts awarded, but when it came
to sell the bonds there was no mar.
ket for them and the project was
dropped.
The proposed new high school for
which tentative plans are now be-
ing drawn, has awakened new in
terest in the enterprise, and it Is
felt that the time 20 dispose Of the
bonds is much more rropitious to-
day than during the world war.
Residents Of the north side OF the
river having sons or daughters Of
high school age, realizing that the
distance between their homes and
Wenger addition is altogether too
far to allow of their families at
tending the classes excepting under
hardship, are enthusiastically behind
the proposed project, as are the
leading residents on both sides OF
the river, and it is confidently pre-
dicted that the bridge will be built
and ready for use by the time the
school building is completed.
