ASHINGTON.— Washington is not
one grand succession ot marble
structures and beautitul parks. There
are slums under the shadow ot the
capltol that compare in squalor with
the East side in New York The capi

those in New York in being less ex
tensive and in being composed ot
small houses Instead of lofty tene
ments.
The Washington refuge of the very
poor is sufficiently bad to have at

and philanthropists and to have
caused President Taft to demand their

gress.
This district is within ten minutes
walk of the United States capltol and
has for one of its boundaries the bo
tanical gardens with their wealth of
exotics. President Taft. In bii me,
