Would Increase Taxes.
"These additional requests would
make the tax rate (on real estate) {,
s2.2S instead of $3.50 And If the re-
quested increases are added to our
present expenses, which are running
about $4,000 ahead Of current in
come there would be further rise in
the tax rate of 20 per cent. This
would mean that real estate and per-
sonal property would pay $3.50 per
500 Of valuation beginning next July.
The boost urged by DR.. Frank w.
Ballou, superintendent Of schools,
would make the per capita cost Of
education (using 100000 as today's
population). amount to $29. In 1920
it was 50. The per pupil cost. assum-
ing 10000 will be the average en-
rollment, would be $181 compared
with $50 In 1920.
Equally startling would be the in
crease in public welfare if the director.

they may cost $19."
The last of the estimates for the
major departments was released yes
terday by the Commissioners, this for
the sewer division. The division pro-
poses appropriations for 1898 amount
ing to 81 ,938, ,083, or an increase Of
$s95,S00 over this year or about IS
per cent.
Increases for Sewer.
Most Of the increases would be used
for construction of sewers said to be
needed because Of development Of new
residential areas, and for rebuilding
much Of the old sewage pumping sta
tion, now 20 years old. The latter
project would be accomplished by q
transfer Of $247,000 from the fund for
the development Of the sewage treat
ment plant, which is expected to be
left as surplus from the cost Of the dis
posal plant.
Maj. j. B. Gordon. sanitary engineer,
estimated rehabilitation of the pump
ing station would save $4,000 an
nually in personnel hire and between
$1,000 and $4,000 for power.
The following list Of sewer projects
was proposed:
Fourth street southwest between
Maryland avenue and G street; B
