Municipal ownership of all public

Gated last night by Corporation Coun-
sci Conrad H. Syme at a joint meet

held in Masonic Hall, Brookland.
II am not authorized to speak for
the Commissioners" said he. 81 am
voicing my own opinion only. In
view of all developments. I say II is
time for the District to own and run
its own utilities. especially the rail-
ways. Such a scheme would certain
ly bring about some reforms. 1t woulo
at least insure against further water
ing OF railway stock
-..If the District can manage its own
water plant successfully and cheaply.
surely II can run its own railways.
The two Washington companies have
not the only two capable executives In
the country.
II think Washington would be an
excellent place to try out municipal
ownership of utilities. OF course. Con-
gress would really run them. / am
for ii because ! think II would be bet
ter in many ways"
Commenting on criticisms Of Congress
by District residents, Mr.. Syme said:
'I think the people should go slow
about criticising Congress. We should
not assume that Congress Is really
against us unless we know what We are
talking about. 1 really think Ben John
son has been done injustice by criticism
He is cautious, possibly overcautious.

lower the cost Of living in New York
State. He sent to the legislature a mes
sage asking the passage of a law to pro-

also for general auction markets where
farm products may be sold by licensed

the farmer and consumer suffer. In his
message the governor cited the success of
auction markets in France.
For the initial cost of the markets

teams on which 10 base comparison. as
Newton has not met any Of the teams
on the Marshalltown schedule. Newton.
early IN the season, suffered a severe
defeat from Ames high, but owing 10
the fact that the game was PLAYED
early. and that Ames is unusually
strong this year, the game can not be
considered IN the light Of representing
the true strength Of Newton al this adj
vanced stage OF the season Newton
however. can always be relied upon TO
fight and fight hard, as past meetings
Of the two schools have proved.
The local team may be handicapped
somewhat by the loss Of good substi-
tutes. Kirk and Halverson left the
squad early in the week. and now
Tweed has also retired. These three
men were all Of first team caliber. and
their retirement from the game re-
moves the best substitutes for line po-
sitions.
The team will go TO Des Moines sat-
urday, where they will witness the an
nual Drake Missouri game on Drake
field.
