I advise that you may direct the

Of contracts, but that no such ordi-
nances be passed as to districts in
which the city is called upon to pay
anything until you have devised some
means of raising the money to make
such payments. AS to other districts
there is no objection to proceeding to
pass ordinances for the signing of the
contracts so soon as our city engineer
mas his estimates properly prepared,
and they have been verified by our

MAYOR HUNT SAYS CITY HAS
REACHED LIMIT OF IN
DEBTEDNESs.
Must Provide Ways and Means for
PAVING Street Intersections il Paw
ina Contracts Are Let.

A grave complication in the matter
of street paving presented itself last
night waen Mayor Hunt in message
to the council called attention to the
fact that the city had practically reach
ed it's limit of Indebtedness, both war
rant and bonded, and that before let
ting any contracts for paving the coun-
eli should meet as a committee of the
whole to devise ways and means for
paying for the paving Of street inter-
sections.
The mayor pointed out that in the
districts where there are no street in
tersections or in districts where the
property owners are willing to pay for
the street intersections, there could be
no objections whatever to the letting
of contracts as soon as the proper Or
Finances can be prepared and signed,
but in districts where the city will be
called upon to pay for some of the
devise ways and means for providing
funds for paying for the work.
Upon the reading of the message
Councilman Kirkman moved that the
council resolve itself into a committee
of the whole to consider the recommen-
dations to the mayor and to report at
an adjourned meeting next Tuesday
evening. The motion carried. The mes
sage of Mayor Hunt was as follows:
Honorable members of the City Coun-
Gil, Walla Walla, Wash.
Gentlemen: Before entering into
any contracts for street paving, where
in the city has agreed to pay for the
paving of the street intersections, l de-
sire to call you together as commit
tee of the whole to devise ways and
means for paying for this work. We
have practically reached the limit of
indebtedness, both warrant and bond
ed The credit of the city at the pres
should jealousy guard the financies so
that it will always remain in it's pres
ent condition. We do not want to leave
any loophole whereby injunction suits
can be brought against the city in any
way. Any contract entered into at the
present time that would require us to
issue bonds would be illegal. In dis
tricts where there are no street inter-
sections that the city will be obliged
to pay for, or in districts where the
property owners are willing to pay for
the paving of the street intersections,
there is no objection whatever to let
ting the contracts for street paving so
soon as the proper ordinances can be
prepared. 1t is necessary, under our
charter after the estimates have been
furnished, to prepare an ordinance au-
thorizing the letting of a contract
Chapter r. Section 80, of the city
charter reads as follows:
THE City of Walla Walla is not
bound by any contract, or in any way
liable thereon, unless the same is au-
thorized by a City Ordinance and

The Real Issue

There are two issues after all, Above the ones that speech may call
 Or wisdom utter; The issues that with me and you Are most portant-and the two
 Are bread and butter. Let patriotic banners wave, Let economic speakers rave;
 'Tis not potential That Art proclaim or Music sing; The Loaf is, after all, the thing
 That's most essential. Truth seeks some broader meeting place, For breed or clan or tribe or race,
 For saint and sinner; But after all the noise and fuss The issue paramount with us
 Is-What for dinner? New theories we may evolve, Old governments we may dissolve,
 New flags float OCT us, And Truth may search and Wisdom think Still these two blanks of meat and drink
 Are yet before us. So let contention hotly wage, And let the wars of logic rage
 In discourse fretted; When all the clamor is complete The issue still is what to eat
 And how to get it

Homes DesrOyed

"I have heard some Socialist speeches and like what little know about the subject, except am told that it will de- stroy the home. How about that--is it true? 1 do not want to espouse social ism no matter what it will give us if it will rob us of our home life. An answer will be much appreciated by

The essence of tbv question is "Will Socialism destroy the home? Now I will be obliged to answer "Yes or No," just as your understanding of home is and in order that l may answer correct ly we will be obliged to analyze the question, partially at least.
 Now l will ask what do you mean by <'home?''
 There are thousands of people who six to ten people, children and adults, often two or more families living in one Toom. All of them who are above 6 or 8 years old are employed for wages somewhere or working in some sweat shop.
 Is this home?
 Beautiful Los Angeles, the city of homes where half of the people own their own homes; who go to their work in the morning before their children get up, and return at night after they have been put to bed. The only time they can see them is when they are asleep and a little while on Sunday.
 Is this home?
 The great number of families who live by getting up sometime in the night and going to WOrk-not only the head of the family, but father, mother and children-and continuing at con- stant toll until sometimes ill the follow ing night, so that they are all tired, tired, tired. The mother who is tired brings forth tired child, who grows up tired under the constant strain, and at last takes the road as a "Weary Willie" or fills an early grave.
 There is the most meageI kind of a house upon which there is no time to spend. There is no furniture, no hang ings, no pictures, no books, no flowers, no ornaments, nothing but the plain, bare walls, and these, too often, do not turn the weather. Merely a place i'll which to prepare some food and lie down for a few short hours to yield to nature's demands for rest.
 If these are the things you call homes and the life those people lead home-life, then socialism certainly will destroy the home.
 However, if socialism destroys the home, it will be in the sense that the full-blown rose has destroyed the bud. 1t will destroy what we have now by putting something intimately superior ta its place.
 What kind of a home could you make for yourself if you had $500 per year a nominal days work-say 6 hours and a guarantee of constant employ ment; do you think you could make home with that as good as capitalism gives you now?
 Socialism will give to every man that much and more.
 Modern capitalism has destroyed the possibility of the vast majority of the people ever getting homes or enjoying home life.
 If capitalism keeps up it's ravages
