$4,000 to Repair
Monument Lift
Asked by Coolidge
President Seeks Money to
Put Elevator Again in
Working Order.

To repair the elevator in the Wash
ington Monument, which has been
out of commission since December,
supplemental estimates amounting to
$4,000 for the War Department are
asked from Congress by President
Coolidge, in a letter received at the
Capitol today.
This appropriation is required for
making extraordinary repairs to the
operating machinery of the elevator,
according to statement from r. O..
Kioeber, acting director of the Bu-
reau of the Budget. He explains that
during the latter part of December,
1924, 1t was found neces ssary to dis
continue the use of the elevator with
view to correcting certain defects
in operation which have become ap-
parent.
TT is now developed" Mr.. Kloeber
says, that the machinery, partic-
ularly the main drive and spider
gears, are in such bad condition as
to demand the replacement of some of
the main parts and the extensive re-
pairs of other parts, involving a cost
greatly in excess of the funds avail
able for annual upkeep. The elevator
has been carefully inspected by the
inspector of elevators for the Dis
trict of Columbia and by mechanical
experts of the Office of superintendent
of public buildings and grounds, who
have reported that it would be un-
safe to put the elevator back into
operation without extensive repairs
and the replacement of some of the
main parts.

Holman said his group objected to

BRO0kLAND CITIZENS

Establishment of junior high

urged in resolutions adopted by the
Brookland Citizens Association, meet
ing in the Brookland School last
night. Disapproval was expressed at
the suggested dlscontinuance Of the
seventh and eighth grades at this
school, which action would compel
the children to go long distances for
accommodations. 1t was decided to
invite neighboring citizens associa-
tfons to aid in the endeavor to secure
a junior high school.
Because this section is without
public playground facilities, a reso-
luton was approved asking that
part of the surplus fund in the Treas
ury to the credit Of the District
be appropriated for creating a
municipal playground and public park
on the site of the old Fort Bunker
Hill, between Otis and Perry and

81 u. S. Air Records
Stir Other Nations;
British Hold None
France Stimulated to Netu
Efforts 10 Regain
.AuiatiOn Marks.

Superiority of the United States in
aerial achievements, with 81 world
airplane records for speed, distance,
endurancss and altitude, as against
Great Britain's none, has awakened
France and stirred the British to the
point where they are now taking in
terest. according to advices which
are coming to United States officials
from various foreign sources.
Information compiled by the Inter
national Aeronautical Federation
shows that the United States heads
the list of records taken with 54, 81
of which were taken by the Army
and % by the Navy. France is next
with IA: Denmark, 5; Czechoslovakia,
4; Sweden, /, and Great Britain, o.
In defense of the British situa ton.
it is asserted that the government
does not encourage the aviation in
dustry. of that country to go after
records and regards their attainment
by official flyers as destructive of pri-
vate initiative in the air industry.
On the other hand, it is pointed
out, the French government about a
year ago, realizing that the United
States was depriving France of a
great number of records, and know
ing that this would mean an ultimat te
deteriora ton of her aircraft indus
try, began offering substantial pre-
miums to manufa cturers who won
back these records. The result has
been that in comparative short
time France has regained not only
vital records for altitude. durat ton
and speed, but also has encouraged
her aviation industry.
Practically the only encouragement
received by the British industry now
is from private sources, and even the
flight in June, 1919, from ST. Johns,
Newfoundland, to Clifton, Ireland
was registered only as an authentic
performance and not as a world rec
ord.

JURY CLEARS NURSE
, IN SUICIDES DEATH
Finds No Negligence Responsible
for Action of Iseman
B. Hartz.

A coroner's jury at the morgue to-
day completely exonerated attendants
at the Emergency Hospital from
blame in connection with the death
of Iseman B. Hartz, who committed
suicide yesterday.
The verdict found that he came to
his death as a result of cutting his
throat with safety razor blade, but
the jury specifically stated that no
negligence was to be attributed to
any of the hospital ATTENDANTS.
The testimony showed that the
nurse in attendance had been absent
only "for a fraction of a second" in
a communicating room.
Members of the family stated that
two nurses were employed especially
because of the fact that the patient
had attempted suicide Wednesday and
it was felt that precautions were
necessary.
Hartz, who entered business here
in 1886 and retired last week. is sur
