D. C. APPOINTMENT BILL
Measure Would Enable District

Terms IN Roard

Terms on Board.
A bill to enable the District Com
missioners to make appointment to the
Board of Public Welfare to fill unex-
pired terms was introduced yesterday
by Chairman Capper and referred to
the Senate District committee.

construed to mean that when mem
Der of this board resigns the Commits
sioners cannot make an appointment
for the remainder of that term, but
can only appoint for the full term of six

to keep the members of this board
divided into groups with the terms of
two members expiring at two-year in
tervals.

REALTY SURVEY
STARTS SOON

Plans are now being completed
for the most comprehensive real
estate survey ever undertaken IN
Washington, it was announced
today by the washington Board
Of Trade. This work will be
under the direction of Rufus S.
TIusk, who is making the master
community survey of Washington
for the board.
Some of the facts that are to
be assembled will be taken from
records that are now available,
and part will be compiled by
making original surveys on the
ground.
Among the data to be gathered
the area Of the industrial zone
districts of the city, both occu-
pied and ulIoccupied; number Of
occupied and vacant stores. The
actual miles of first commercial
zoned property will be compiled
rom the zoning maps and the
amount of frontage in use will
be measured on the first CONNER
cial streets. Data will be taken
showing thu number, kind and
location of all stores.
Later in July, a survey of
office building space, both occu-
pied and unoccupied will be
made. There has never been q
vacancy survey made of office
building in Washington, and real
estate men have often expressed
the need for such information.
This work will start shortly
after July 4.

Earliest Wall Paper
Tackled ODer Beams

Some Of the earliest wall papers
found in England were tackled to
the plaster that filled the spaces
between the beams and the up
rights. Next, they pasted the
paper on canvas, which had been
stretched over wooden frames and
leaned against the wall. This
way householders could take their
wallpaper with them when they
moved. Or the wallpaper was
