Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Board of Public Welfare of the District of Columbia, With Reports of Charitable and Correctional Institutions and Agencies, 1929 It is quite true that the walls were dingy and stained and in some places defaced, but they were not dirty. They had never been painted since the buildings were erected six years ago, but several months before this reporter's visit a complete renovation Of all the buildings was begun and had been pushed as rapidly as was possible with the help available. At the time of the reporter's visit this work had been completed in all the buildings except the south building. It had actually begun in that building some weeks before and was then in progress. It has since been completed, or nearly so, givmg all the buildings a much better appearance. The committee saw no evidence of crowding or lack of beds. It saw the beds and the patients. The testimony Of attendants was that there has been no overcrowding. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
