CITIZENS AGAINST
ISSUE OF BONDS
Washington Highlands Body
Opposes Debt-IndorSeS
Gasque Measure.

The proposed $4,000, 900 municipal
bond issue to buy park lands was
voted down by the members of the
Washington Highlands Citizens AS
ISOLATION last night at the meeting
In Congress Heights School. and the
association went on record as OPP
posed to any bond issue at this time
to be used for purposes other than
municipal betterment.
The motion followed a speech by
George G. Havener. president of the
Anacostia Citizens Association, in
which he said, mo one seems to know
what is behind this bond issue.
Washington is the only city of 10000
population or over that is out of
debt: let's keep it out of debt
IF a $10,000,000 bond issue We're
put out it would cost taxpayers
100000 q year to pay it back. That
would necessitate a raise in the tax
rate.
"Some people think the bond issue
would hurry up the school building
program. That is didiculous. as what
is needed is not more money, but
efficiency and economy. I can see no
reason at all for the bond issue. We
do not want to leave an unnecessary
debt on the shoulders of our chill
dren. 1t is easier to pay as we GO"
Edward J. Newcomb, chairman of
the Penal Institution Board Of the
Board Of Public Welfare, speaking on
Mothers Welfare" said
"Over 100000 has been appropri-
ated to care for orphans and incapaci-
tated parents. We have had 500
applicants for help. At the present
time we have helped 40 mothers with
month. We are trying to limit the
to 500 now, however"
