2 SECTION DEPLORES 0SS OF RESIDENTS Stanton Park Citizens Blame Realty Men’s Indiffer- ence for Moving. Blame for the lack of development and improvement in the eastern sec- tion of the city was placed on the real estate dealers of the northeast section by members of the Stanton Park Citi- zens' Assoclation at a meeting in the Peabody School, Fifth and C streets northeast, last night. Because of the indifference on the part of real estate dealers in East Washingto s the city’s substantial citizens are mov- ing to the northwest, where develop ment is along more modern lines, it was said. i Commissioner Frederick A. Fenning, in a short address, said that the citi- zens of the Stanton Park section should not be accused of unselfish mo- tives when It is noticed that they are constantly striving for improvements. When it {s considered that this com- munity is but a few blocks from the Capitol and in view of the fact also that the Capitol faces to the east, it Is but reasonable to expect that the northeast t should have streets, lights, par keepirg with proper surroundings for the Capitol. ors Discussion.
