u. r.. aud you can make Il az strong
as you like. The city should never
have given the ID. u. r. the right to
build that Junction-ave. belt line. The
city should have built II. II could be
In running order now, and would be q
paying Investment from the very
start. But the D. u. r. is holding Il
back as a club, knowing the public
demand for the belt line. and using II
TO force concessions. so they daily
along about building II. II can be
put In operation In less than "a
hours. Why then hasn't II been In
use for weeks past?
THE old Detroit railway was built
at the rate OF a mile day, and 80
miles put into service In so days. The
Junction-ave. line could be built the
same way. And II should have been
built by the city, not by the ID. u. r..
Under the agreement. II can be held
by the ID. u. r. until such time as
the city gets ready TO pay the street
car company's price for II. That's
what the 'day-today' agreement
means-to the ID. u. r. We all know
from bitter experiences, Whit It means
TO us. We won hard war
against the street railway COM
paiiys and then busted OF our
clothes, and left the field In their
possession. We succeeded In leaving
them with their hundreds OF miles OF
interurban lines. stopped at the city
limits, as far as franchises go. Now,
we have given them tying system
for all their outside lines--the juno
tion-aye. belt line. They can bring
passengers In on the interurbans, and
either by physical connection, or the
transfer system. send them In to the
heart OF the city over the sorcalled
three-cent lines-the franchises Of
which run until 1925-and as much
longer as litigation keeps them alive.
The Fort and West Jefferson lines are
an example. The interurban can be
tied In 10 the city. by the old Wood
mere plug tracks, which have been
put In good condition for such an
eventuality, and II the company wins
this Sneider suit, and establishes that
II was really given franchise at the
contested point, to put In what II
pieases, u VIII have the connecting
link for Its interurbans.
On the east side Of the city, the
ID. U. r. Is able to tie I'm its Jeffer-
son-ave. interurban route, by an ex-
tension joining Jefferson and Ker-
the grant going through
the council Tuesday night, which will
give entry TO the heart OF the city
over the three-cent lines.

suburban line to Port Huron on JEFF.

MAY HAVE A WAR TAX HERE
Administration Must Arrange to Over
come Deficit Caused by Lack
of import Duties.

Washington, D. C.-After a confer
ence with Secretary of the Treasury
McAdoo Senator Simmons, chairman
of the senate finance committee, an
nounced that measures must be adopt
ed to produce revenues for the gov
eminent, since the income from for
eign duties had been so sharply re-
duced by the falling off of imports on
account of the war.
1T goes without saying, said Sim
mons, that the form of taxation
which we must agree upon in order
to raise the money necessary to run
the government will have to take the
form Of internal revenue. A change
in the tariff duties would not mate
rally affect the revenue, because
there are little imports. The loss an
nually will be S1OO,OOO,O 900.
