the District Repair Shop to soften
and clean playground surfaces proves
successful.
Under the direction of w. A. Draper,
engineer in charge of the shop. a
test surface composed of peat moss,
cotton fabric and granulated cork
will take the place of the cinder and
clay surface at Peabody School Play
ground, Fifth and G streets north
east. If it proves successful it prob
ably will be applied on about $50
such areas unless lack of funds inter-
feres.
Parents complain that children
come nome with skinned hands and
knees and "awfully dirty" as a result
of playing on the cinder-covered lots.
Protests have been made to the Dis
trict Playground Department and the
Board of Education.
At a cost estimated at about 20
per cent higher than the cost of
cinder-clay surfaces. the new top
would have base of clay. On this
would be placed a layer of peat moss
reinforced with cotton fabric. Over
all this a layer of granulated cork
would be pressed.
Draper believes the new compost
ton would remove the dangers of
severe bruises and, at the same time,
eliminate the SCOT resulting from
cinders. Many surfaces have been
placed in the last few years by re-
lief and w. P A. workers, the cinders
coming from school buildings adjacent

D. c. SCHOOL COST
RATIO HELD LEAST
AMONG Z CITIES
24.1 Pct. of City's Total Ex-
pense Goes for Education,
Says Census Bureau.
MONEY TOTAL LARGER
THAN MOST IN CLASS
1884 Data Shows Reduction in
Proportionate Expenditure
From 1925 and 1888.

Washington allotS proportionately
less of the city's operating expenses to
the public schools than any of IL cities
whose population ranges from 300, 900
to 100000, according to figures made
public today by the Census Bureau.
The actual amount of money spent
here is larger than any of the dozen
cities except Newark, NJ j., but the
proportion represents only 241 per
cent of the total spent by the city. In
all the others the proportion is higher,
ranging from 25.6 per cent in Roch-
ester, N. Y, to 35.7 per cent in Louis
vile, KY.
The figures cover the fiscal year
1894.
Proportionate Expenditure Cut.
Compared TO the preceding year and
to 1926. the Capital has steadily re-
duced the proportionate expenditure
for schools. In 1888 the sum repre-
sented % per cent of the Districts ex-
penses. In 1925 1t represented 307
per cent. While the trend also was
downward in other cities of compar-
ative size, the reduction has been not
quite so large.
The total spent here in 1884 was
$8,28l, 1893, which amounts to a per
capita expenditure of S1673. The only
higher total, that in Newark, was
1887 1858, or a per capita cost of S21.
Others with larger per capita costs
were Cincinnati, with s17.74, and
Rochester with $19.08.
In the group with populations above
100000, four cities paid more per
capita for public education than did
Washington. These are New York,
s1873: Los Angeles. $16.85: Boston
S1856, and Buffalo, Sl763. The total
school budgets of IL cities. however
were larger than that of the Capital.
Almost Back to 1926 Figures.
Washington is almost back now to
its 1926 figures. Then the per capita
cost was $3.50, but that represented
! 3O.7 per cent of the total District
budget. In 1888 it was s1s13, or %
per cent.
Compared to the United States as a
whole. based on figures for all cities
Of 100000 or more. Washington spent
more per capita than the average
which is $1403. but the proportion Of
the budget here is less, the average fol
the Nation being 3o2 per cent.

Harris convinced himself he was
