RENOVIZING DRIVE - MAY BE EXTENDED Nearby Maryland and Virginia to Be Interested in Campaign. Plans to extend the work of the Renovize Washington Campaign to nearby Maryland and Virginia were discussed at & meeting of the officials of the movement yesterday, at which was received also a letter from Dr. Luther H. Reichelderfer giving the offi- cial approval of the District Commis- sioners to the renovizing campaign. Organizations representing the near- by suburbs and towns are to be per- mitted, it was said, to use the litera- ture of the Washington Campaign Committee and to adopt the general plan of procedure outlined for Wash- n. The renovizing campaign, which is sponsored by the Washington Board of ade and indorsed by a large group of civic organizations, actively under way end the work of renovizing a dilapidated structure as a demonstration will be started soon. Reichelderfer’s Letter. In his letter to Arthur B. Heaton, neral chairman of the committee, Dr. ichelderfer said: “I have just noticed that your. com- lttee has moved to the park bounded By Pennsylvania avenue, E street, Four- teenth and Fifteenth streets, the struc- ture which is to be used to demon- strate to the people of Washington the necessity for a renovizing campaign. I understand that this dilapidated struc- ture is to be modernized so as to make it an example of what can be done by property owners in Washington to im- Pprove the appearance of the city by im- proving the appearance of their own properties. If property owners will make expenditures on their homes to im- prove the neighborhoods in which they are situated, the wprk involved will give employment to artisans, mechanics and labor generally, which is very mucl needed in these times of stress. The ‘Commissioners appreciate the efforts of your committee, and hope that the demonstration you are making will be an incentive to the citisens of Wash- ington to carry on the work of reno- viring homes and other structures.” Plan $5,000,000 Expenditure. The committee has set Washington's al as the expenditure of $5,000,000 “rmg the campaign. Based on the percentage expended for labor in Phila- delphia, Mr. Heaton steted that this ‘would mean employment for 30,000 men for one month or 5,000 for six m .

H. H. B.

Vision Partly Realized. | “Part of my vision- has been realized | far beyond my dreams. The Folger | Bhakespeare Library is available for| scholars. I should like to see the| other half of my vision fulfilled in a playhouse devoted to the performance of Shakespeare’s plays and the plays| of his contemporaries. I do not want a building so large that it would be expensive to maintain and difficult to| fill, and I do not want a building so | small that ‘the people for whom Shakespeare wrote,’ the averagz people, could not be admitted. We are starting a fund for such a Shakespeare theate: and are encouraged by the first re- sponse manifested.” Dr. E. V. Wilcox, president of the Bhakespeare Boclety, also discussed the plan. He said, “For years I have been dreaming of the possibility of a regu- lar, practical theater of moderate pro- portions, devoted to the production of the plays of Shakespreare.” I Appreved by Bowerman.
