on these islands. No othcr. no better
policy can be proclaimed. Congress
should proclaim this policy by It's acts
and make no attempt to do what It has
no power 10 dO-tO pledge or limit the
action Of future congresses. IL cannot
be assumed that wisdom viii die with
the present Congress. nor that It Is
any part OF Its duty to proclaim what
future Congresses shall do. Sufficient
unto the day is the duty thereof"
There are numerous resolutions and
bills before Congress that deal with
this difficult subject The bill OF SEN

and sensible. II is, perhaps, the very

Il is stated that members Of the
City Council contemplate adoption Of a
particular vessel or can for garbage and
to compel every householder to use it..
There does not appear so great neces-
sity for any particular garbage re-
ceptacle; but it is possible that some
one wants q contract or an opportunity,
There certainly should be a minimum
and a maximum limit as to size of the
receptacle 1t should be large enough
to hold the average waste so that it
will not litter the sidewalks; 1t should
not be too large to handle readily when
the collectors empty 1t, and it should
be slightly wider at the top than be-
low. SO that 1t will not be difficult to
