District Burden Shift Plan Aims to Cut Debt in Two Years
The board proposes extending debt repayment over twelve years while diverting District revenues to fund extraordinary improvements. It would extinguish half of the bonded debt within two years, reduce annual interest, and use residual funds for permanent projects. The plan seeks congressional action to extend time and fund improvements without harming current operations.

Narmer A Merritt is acting postmaster of Washington after bondsmen selected him to hold the office until President Taft makes a permanent appointment. The weekly meeting of bondsmen, including Milton J Alles and W. H. Chesney for the Aetna Indemnity Company, set the post at 255000 dollars.
