Foster, the chairman, and William E. Brigham. vice chairman. W. Pearce Rayner, chairman of the public safety group. pointed out that his group was engaged in a study of lack of adequate fire protection in_the public schools. “When this investigation is com- pleted,” he declared, “the results will cause ‘alarm. The schools are inade- quately equipped for fire protection and the lives of children are jeop- ardized daily Mr. Rayner also predicted that group would register some opposition to certain stringent provisions of the anti-pistol toting bill. He said that, if it became effective, a man would hardly be allowed to protect himself adequately in his own home. Emile Berliner, chairman of the public health group, presented a written report showing a year of marked activity, with numerous ac- complishments of an important na- ture. EXTEND $250,000 DRIVE.

MOVE TO INCREASE HOUSE TO 460 SEATS Representatives Favor Compromise After Last Session's any mail in the history of city collec- tions. Merchants and others are asked by the post office to co-operate with the office by placing thelr urgent mail in these “quick collection” boxes. Decision of officials to include the important boxes at 15th street and New York avenue and 14th and G streets were reached today. All the boxes chosen are outside boxes, no boxes in buildings being included in the “loop” as it is being tried out, as | it was felt by officials that entering of buildings would delay the collector too much. | “For the present no alteration has [ been made in the boxes specified. but |if the quick collection system prove a success and is largely patronized | by the business men und others, paint- !ing the hoxes a bright red or some other distinctive color is plated. that all those who are co-operating in the “mail early—mail often” cam- paign will take advantage of the week's trial which began today. and get as much of their business mail into the boxes in the morning hours and early afternoon hours as possible.

Note the horse’s fore leg to see if a “shoe boil” is appearing, if so, paint the swelling with iodine three times a day, and cover the place at night with a heavy piece of blanket cr other material to protect the “boil” from the calks in the iron shoe when the horse lies down.

Standardization of realty exchange transactions in the District is expected to result from the adoption last night by the Washington Real Estate Board of a standard contract form for all exchanges of property. The contract was discuss- cd and approved at the regular board meeting in The Star building. The model form worked out ia special committee, following a search of the various contrac ed in lccal real estate offices. Tt - no radical clauses in the standard form, and many of the approved featurcs of contracts now ful use were incorporated. Lee D. Latimer was appointed by President Harry L. Rust to represent the Washington Real Estate Board in the annual speaking contest to be con- ducted at the convention of the National Association of Real Estate Boards in Chicago July 14. The board voted to oppose the pro- posed change in name of the National | Association of Real Estate Boards to the “National Association of Realtors.” President Rust called a special meet- ing_of the board for April 21, the place to be announced later.
