D. {. HEADS GET.
BUDGET DATA

The proposed budget for the
District for the fiscal year 1885
was discussed today at a con-
ference between Maj. Daniel j.
Donovan, District auditor, and
the District Commissioners.
It is expected the conferences
with the Commissioners on the
items in the budget will occupy
nearly a week, after which the
estimates in their final form will
be approved by the Commission
ers and sent to the Bureau of the
Budget.
The new budget is expected to
call for approximately $36, ,7OO, 900,
about $3,500,00O more than the
appropriation for the current
year. The increase is largely due
to the fact that officials pro-
vided funds for payment of full
salaries, indicating the expected
restoration of the Is per cent
cut.
The budget in its tentative
form, also provided for a con-
tinuation of the $3.50 tax rate.

LOCAL DEALERS
REPORT SALES
ON UPSW|NC
Increase Indicates People Are
Turning From Necessities
to Life'S LuxurieS

When the public begins to buy
more art than it has for many
months, it is safe to assume that
better times are coming.
Several art dealers in Washing.
ton report sales are beginning to
climb. This is one more proof Of
the return to prosperity that has
already been heralded in The
Washington Times in series OF
interviews with local druggists,
employment agencies, florists,
book dealers, department stores,
delicatesSens, radio dealers, adver-
tising agencies. photographers,
women's clothiers, confectioners,
haberdashers, shoe stores, jewelers.
and furniture stores.
Running Ahead
All of those various retail
trades have reported recent gains
in sales. and many merchants
ascribe the reason to the NRA and
the BUY in September" cam
paign being conducted by The
Washington Times and Hearst
newspapers throughout the ma
ton.
AS for the art dealers, one of
them states that within the past
three weeks there has been a
sharp pickup in business. He is
Fred c. Hays, proprietor of the
establishment bearing his name.
He says:
I'm going over our records a
couple of nights ago we found
that our business day by day
is now running from IS to 20
per cent ahead of last year.
Things are picking up, especially
in the better grades of mer-
chandiSe."
urges all to Buy
Hays believes the Buy in
September" drive to be "a good
idea" He claims it is suggesting
to people who are able to buy
the Importance of spending every
available dollar at this time.
A report just as encouraging
comes from Charles B. Jarvis,
art dealer. Stating that sales are
just beginning to pick up we'll,
he says:
"Traveling statesmen going
through town tell me they are
taking more orders than they
did this time last year."
Pointing out that his merchan-
disc is a luxury, Jarvis states that
it is only an increase of public
confidence that is boosting art
sales. He adds:
eff business keeps up as it
is now, I shall be able to buy
a pair of shoes next week, and
that will give me two pairs"
Like Old Times
S. j. Venable, of the establish
ment bearing his name, believes
that business has looked much
better in the past few weeks.
Stating that he is very encour-
aged over recent receipts, he re.
ports that quite a few days in the

The fact that more people than
ever are now expressing their de-
Sires for art is reported by o. L.
Veerhoff, of the Veerhoff Gal
leries. In his correspondence
with art lovers outside of Wash
ington, he states, he has found
that there is an increase in ac-
tivity elsewhere as we'll.
Thus the road back to better
times becomes clearer and
clearer, as one retail trade after
another discloses that sales are
more people are at work.
