heads, who appeared before the group
to justify requested items. The hear
ings were concluded late yesterday after
representatives of District courts and

Federation of Citizens Associations. had
been heard.
Two Judges Speak.
Among those heard yesterday were

Another witness was DR.. George F..

lined needs of the library system.
Clayton petitioned for a consider
able increase in the appropriation for
the trees and parkings division, point
ing out that maintenance of the tree
population of the District is being ham
dicapped seriously this year because Of
q drastic reduction in the estimates.
: The division this year has an appro-
priation of but $4,000. Clayton point
ed out there now are 5000 tree va
cancies" in the city, and that during
this fiscal year none of these can be
filled. He asked that the appropria-
tion for 1885 be raised to $3.50 900, and
If that we're not possible, that sum
OF at least 100000 be approved.
Larger Sum Indicated.
The committee indicated the recon-

was available this year.
In the next few days, according to
present plans, the Commissioners will
make public a summary of the proposed
budget and an outline of the financial
condition of the District during this and
next year.
1t is reported the budget will have
a total of about $50, zoo, 900, an increase
of some S4,O00,000 over the total for
the current fiscal year, most of the in
crease resulting from the basing Of
salary items on a 100 per cent scale,
whereas for the current year they were
based on an IS per cent scale in keep

LOAN CORPORATION.
SAVES D. c. HOMES.
Approves Financial Aid to
Only 80, but Saves Scores
From Auction.

Although it has approved Federal
financial aid to distressed home owners
in only 80 cases, the local agency of the
Home Owners Loan Corporation has
succeeded In saving scores Of Washing
ton homes from the auction block since
its establishment two months ago, it
was said today.
Interceding in every foreclosure case
threatened in the District, the copora-
ton has succeeded in, obtaining extern
sions of time, during which it has in
vestigated the cases with a view to
either making satisfactory adjustments
between mortgage and mortgagor. ar
ranging for refinancing through private
channels, or rendering Government
assistance.
Foreclosures Show Drop.
The effect of the corporations activity
in this regard here is reflected in statis-
tics Of the Washington Real Estate
Board on the number Of foreclosures
taking place. From the high levels of
1856 and 140 cases during June and
July, the number dropped to 80 during
Augus., and "a thus far this month,
these figures show.
Very few owner-occupied homes are
included in the foreclosures of the last
two months, 1t was said at the office
of the corporation today. Those taking
place represented mostly investment
properties, 1t was stated.
Pointing out that the number of re-
quests for relief granted does not actu-
ally reflect the work Of the District
agency, Charles A. Jones, District man
ager, said:
There seems to be very general
appreciation on the part of applicants
to this Office that for the first time
there Is available in the city a place
where they can take their mortgage
problems and get disinterested advice.
The range Of subjects with which the
local Office has had to deal and will
continue to deal has to do with far
more than refinancing.
I'm many cases We have been called
on to advise an owner as to whether
he should continue to carry on with
the home he now occupies or whether
he should take less costly quarters. We
have even been called upon to assist in
working out certain domestic difficulties
which affected the ability of an owner
to retain his property" i.
Strict Policy Made.
The agency, Jones said, makes strict
policy Of only considering applications
to ref1nance homes when no other solu-
ton is available to prevent foreclosure.
I'VE realize" he said, that although
the resources of the corporation are
large, they are only sufficient to re-
finance about one home in ten in the
United States and it Is therefore obvi-
GUS that the assets must be used only
in cases where real distress exists"
The loans already approved probably
will be closed within week, the only
detail remaining being the signing Of
deed of trust forms and other minor
matters, Jones said. A special deed of
trust form drawn up for the District is
! now In the hands Of the Federal head
quarters for approval.
