War monopolized us, our la- bors and our. treasure, in patriotic and self-sacrificing service. i We must economize now that the war is over; that is, we must econo- mize in those matters which relate to war-making and war-preparedness. We nave been wisely extravagant in war wxpenditures, and this extravagance is now to cease. We have not been ex- travagant, but serimping and neglect- | ful, in outlays for the capital's muniei- ; pal maintenance and development, end ! especially in outlays for permanent pablic improvements, which have had no dizect relation to war-making. ] These wise projects, both of just municipal maintenance and of per-| manent municipal upbullding, Ilike | those relating to schools, streets and watersupply plant, properly pushed eside in order to give Uncle Sam full | swing in the war-making functions, ! ought now to recelve from budget bu- reau and from Congress the thought- | ful, liberal and sympathetic considera- | tion which they deserve. In respect to them, not retrenchment of appropria- | tion but deliberate and substantial increase is the demand of wisdom and ! equity. And in meeting now these great municipal needs neglected in | war time all the resources of the Dis-' trict ought to be utilized, including | the unexpended tax surpluses of the | past, reasonable taxation of the pres- ent and just participation in contribu- tion (by bond issue or through loans or advances by nation to District) of‘tax- | payers of the near future, who will | profit more than anybody else from the completion and utilization of great | permanent public improvements.
