HEAVIER TAX SEEN
IN D. c. BOND ISSUE
Loan of $4,000, 900 Held
Temptation to Congress to
Drop 40 Pct. Allowance.

Should the District be enabled to
borrow s20,0OAO00 on its own security
there is the possibility that Congress
will be tempted to abandon the 40
per cent of federal contribution to
the Districts appropriations and thus
compel the already sorely taxed prop
erty owners to pay the entire expense
OF the undertaking, it was brought
out in a resolution opposing bond
issue for additional city improvements
adopted at meeting of the Columbia
Heights Citizens Association at st.
Stephens Church last night
The resolution was embodied in the
report made by George A. Ward,
chairman of the committee on laws
and fiscal relations. The repc~- so
brought out that the improvements
to be made were indefinite in cnar-
acter and location and that no as
surance was given that the federal
government would assume any part
of the obligation. AS a further evil
dence of disapproVal of sucI.s bond
ing issue 1t was pointed out that the
District is soon TO be free of bond
debt of s20,000.000, which was nego-
tiated forty-five years ago, and facing
another similar burden was not en-
tirely to the liking of the organiza-
zion.
Oppose Lump-Sum Fund.
That one of our Commissioners and
an influential member of the House
appropriations committee. favored a
lump-sum contribution for the Dis
trict, displacing the proportionate
contribution under the 6o-40 ratio,
was brought out in adopting u
resolution opposing this step. The
and unanimously opposed "such an
indefensible plan to alter or destroy
the present method Of making ap-
preparations"
A resolution protesting the sale Of
three car tokens for 20 cents except
at the car barns or other places Of
equal inaccessibility also was adopt
ed. 1t was brought out that the
street car companies are still operat-
ing under charter calling for five
cent fare. or six tickets for % cents:
that the present rate is the result of
Il wartime measure of relief for the
car companies, and that, as the war
is over, the companies should revert
TO the fare specified in the charter.
The delegates to the Federation OF
Citizens Associations were instructed
to push this issue to conclusion.
Approval was given to a resolution
offered by j. Clinton Hiatt, which IA
vored- the recommendations of Capt.

WITH PRESIDENT HARD
ING, PALACE HOTEL, SAN
FRANCISCO, Aug. 1.-Presi-
dent Harding was sitting up in
bed reading the newspapers this
morning when physicians entered
the sick chamber for their fore
noon consultation.
The President greeted them cheer
fully. He was able to eat the best
meal since his illness at breakfast
this morning. He took little else than
a cup Of warm milk, a soft boiled egg
and piece Of toast
Physicians attending the President
are optimistic over the great improve
ment shown by the patient and de-
clare rest and sleep are slowly but
steadily restoring the rugged health
of the executive.
DIR. Sawyer stated, however, the
President is not yet out of danger and
because of the nature of his Illness
close watch will be kept, as any num-
Der Of complications may arise.
Countless kilograms expressing
sympathy and hope for quick recoy-
cry have been received from every
State in the Nation.

The morning bulletin read:
''The President is fairly comforts,

This bulletin confirmed in every
particular the unofficial statements of
the Presidents doctors made last
night and early this morning to the
effect that progress from now would
probably be very slow but steady.
and that the main task of the doctors
would be to prevent any complicac
