Tho Real Estate exchange Is noncom mittal on asking congress for a p. 000,0(0 appropriation for the relief of tornado sufferers and reconstruction of homes. Members at the weekly meeting expressed tho opinion that congress would not make on appropriation for such a pur poso and that to ask for It would only result In some bad advertising. Estimators of damages and losses In curred through tho district declared their figures would aggregate a much smaller sum than Is generally believed and that reparation could entirely be made by monuey already subscribed to the relief and restoration funds, together with the 11,000,000 county bond issue. On the other hand the members thought there might be Home sufferers who would not receive their shares In Just portions from thesu funds because of their Insufficiency and that to ask for an appropriation from congress might be advisable. To figure out tho problem and make a recommendation how the exchange should stand on the question, President Hast ings nppointed F. D. Wead, C. F. Harri son nnd C. C George n committee to Investigate and report on the matter. In any event the exchange will not favor so large an appropriation as $2,000,000, those having worked on committees declaring1 that such a sum Is absolutely not needed. It wns reported that congress never has given financial a.slstanco to cities In times of distress and It was pointed out thnt tho only government aid given San Francisco and Galveston went through the War department In tho shapo of food and clotthlng.
