provide for the erection Of q new senior
high school by the Chillum Heights
Citizens Association at its meeting last
night in the Joseph r. Keene School.

care OF pupils In the northern part of
the city, but also all children east Of

congestion in a number Of the other
high schools.
Cyrus T. Bright, who introduced the
resolution. requested that the secretary
send copies to the District Commis-
sioners the Board OF Education and
the Federation Of Citizens Associations.
The association asked the District
Commissioners to construct sidewalk
on the north side of Kennedy street
from Second street northwest to Blair
Road northeast SO that the proper pro-
lection may be provided for the large
number Of school children who are
forced to use this street to reach the

children had been injured on this street
in the last few years.

D. C. PROBES FRAUD CHARGES.
Painters Claim S1,628 Due for Work on
Harrison School.

District officials today launched an
Investigation into the complaints OF 1O
workmen employed by subcoptractors
on the Harrison School addition in the
21OO block of Thirteenth street that
they had been defrauded of total OF
S1,62313 by Brown & Overcast Co.,
painting subcontractors, who have since
left the city.
The amount, according to afidavits
filed with E. S. Dawson, investigator OF
claims for the District, represents the
difference between the amount paid the
men and the amount due them under
an hour-at which rate they were hired.
Conclude Work.
The subcontracting firm, which for
merly maintained an Office in the 400
block of H street southwest, unexpected
ly concluded work on the Harrison
School Job January %, leaving the
painting and interior decoration work
incomplete, according to information in
the hands of the corporation counsels
office. 1t is understood the subcon-
tracing firm had been paid up to that
date by the general contractors for the
job Culbertson & Kelly Co., Inc, OF
Detroit.
The affidavits filed by the 10 painters
whose individual losses, they declare,
range from $4,000 to $278.25-state that
the men signed papers required under
the law that they were being paid the
prevailing wage scale in accordance
with the Bacon-Davis act.
Without expressing an opinion on the
matter, Corporation Counsel w. w.
Bride said today he was of the belief
the matter was one to be dealt with be-
tween the contractors and subcon-
tractors, and would not involve the Dis
trict.
Work Continued.
At the Office of Culbertson g. Kelly 1t
was said the subcontracting firm aban-
doned the job unexpectedly" and that
the work was being completed by en-
ployes of the general contracting nrm
They were unable to tell where the
Brown & Overcast concern was from
Painters employed on the construction
project told Dawson, however, that
Brown hailed from High Point, N. c.,
and Overcast from Pine Bluff, Ark.
Action on the part of District author
ities in the matter, if any, will not be
taken before Monday, when Dawson
will submit his report dealing with his
investigation. Dawson said today ne
was satisfied the men had bsen hired
at the prevailing wage scale OF $11 per
day, but payment of wages had been
sptit off" until finally the subcontrac-
tors left without reimbursing their en-
ployes.
at the district attorneys office it was
said no action would be taken in the
matter until it was presented at that

Declaring elimination by the Sena.c
OF all airmail appropriations for next
year would practically destroy the
aeronautical industry" and wipe out in
vestments aggregating more than $780,
900, 900, Postmaster General Brown late
yesterday went to the Capitol in per-
son to plead for continuation of the
airmail service.
The Postmaster General laid before
Senator Robinson, author Of the amend.
ment which killed the airmail appro-
prlat1on, defense which he prepared
personally after more than five hours
OF labor at his hotel Thursday night.
Sees Reduction in Future.
The Postmaster Generals plea. which
is regarded as one of the most COM
prehensive documents yet framed on the
airmail and its relation to society, was
made public last night at the Post
Office Department. In 1t Mr.. Brown
expressed the belief that a general busi-
ness recovery would make it possible
to reduce the cost of airmail service to
the point where further Government
subsidies would be unnecessary.
. eliminating or Gripping the airmail
at present" Mr.. Brown said, will prac-
tcally destroy the aeronautical industry,
with a gross annual turnover Of $50.
100000, taking into account the s25,-
100000 disbursed by the airmail
operators. and will wipe out investments
OF the Federal Government, municipali-
ties and private enterprises aggregatin2
more than $4,000 000."
Finds Moral Obligation.
Brown said he rested the case Of the
alrmau "squarely upon the legal and
moral obligations of the United States
government by reason of covenants
contained in the route certificates issued
pursuant to the provisions of the
McNary-Watres act, vesting in the
holders of such route certificates the
rlght to carry the airmail over their
respective routes and receive just COM
pensatlon therefor, until the fifth day
Of April, 1886"
he assured Congress that mo further
contracts. route certificates or route
extensions Will be made by this ad-
ministration."
He said public patronage of the air.
