FOR A CONSTITUTIONAL coNvEN.
TON.

The Chicago Eagle calls on all good
citizens to fight for new State Con.
stitution. The Citizens Association
voices our sentiments when It says:
1T Is universally admitted that the
present Constitution OF Illinois, adopt.
ed forty.three years ago has long
been ""tgrown: and that the slow and
difficult process required to amend It
has for many years seriously retarded
the progress Of the people Of the State
by deprivii.g them Of the power to
properly meet new governmental
needs arising from the changed condi.
tons. The accumulated evils arising
from this situation have now become
so numerous and acute that adequate
relief can be obtained only by revising
the Constitution In such way that It
will cease to be hindrance to good
government. Such necessary reforms
as the abolition Of the system of mi.
rority representation In the Legisla.
ture; revision Of the texation system;
consolidation Of local governing and
taxing bodies; and reduction in the
number Of elective officers can only be
secured without intolerable delay by
undermining the State Constitution.
Adequate powers OF home rule for
Chicago can also best be secured by
this Statewide method.
For forty years proposed amend
ments have killed each other of. One.
J third Of the membership OF either
house has Deen able eifectually to
block any desired change in the Con.
stitution. The irksome restrictions
imposed by the present Constitution
bear down upon Chicago with almost
crushing force. Because Of them Chi.
cago Is compelled to maintain, at q
vast unnecessary expense, three sep.
arate ana distinct governmental
bodies covering practically the same
territory; viz: the City, County and
Sanitary District. In our opinion the
time 10 ripe now for holding . Con.
stitutionai Convention In illinois 20
the best means Of affordlng adequate
relief to the people Of the City and
State. At the next session Of the Leo.
isIature we will do everything In our
power to bring about the calling Of
such . Convention, which this Asso.
'iation has fav-red Tor many ysars"

MR.. WAcKER's APPEAL.

Mr. Charles II. Wacker, than whom
Chicago has no more public spirited
citizen, believes that the proposed
Michigan avenue improvement will be
OF incalculable benefit to this city.
Mr.. Wacker says in reference to 1t.
The Michigan avenue Improvement
Is presented as project of city.wide
interest because OF the vital elements
to the prosperity Of Chicago involved
in the situation.
Firstly, the business and CONNER
cial welfare Of all Chicagoans Is at
stake In the matter. Michigan ave-
nue., in the zone affected, Is one OF
the most congested thoroughfares In
the world. More than 10000 vehicles
daily traverse the avenue and Its In
tersecting streets near the river. The
delays to traffic resulting from this
crush OF travel have been estimated
to cost Chicago over 100000 year.
The new harbor and recreation piers
being constructed are certain to in
crease this trouble tremendously.
City officials are unanimous in the
opinion that this inconvenience, delay
and loss to business must be overcome
if Chicago is TO hold her place as the
great central market OF the United
States. II can be overcome only by
making the Improvement proposed.
Conditions are growing worse daily
Relief must be had. The city will be
forced sooner or later, 10 do the
work planned. Five years delay will
add 80 per cent TO the cost ten years
delay will double IL. Economy and
common sense demand action now,
TimeliLess is second strong ar
gument. II has been shown repeated
ly that in such periods as the present
public works can be carried out al
lower cost than when prosperity Is al
food tide. Everything necessary, in
Guiding land, labor and material, are
cheaper than when industry is in full
swing.
Iacluded in this is an important
question. II is that OF giving worl
upon this public project TO many hun
dreds OF Chicago citizens who are
now in need Of employment, Numer
Gus other cities are undertaking large
public works now TOR no other reason
than that Of partly relieving theil
labor problems.
Another fact OF weight in the sit
uatlon is that the new thoroughfart
viii link together in a proper mannel
two mpOrtant sides of Chicago. Tt
create the splendid new street al
proposed viii. be TO really unite tn,
north and south sides OF the city, EN-
bracing nearly two-thirds OF the popu
latiOn.
Perhaps the most enthuslng argu
ment of all is that OF getting all Chi
cago together once again for an all
Chicago work. II is conceded that nc
city in America commands the price
OF loyalty OF its people as does Chi
cago. Large public projects awaken
. TO renewed use the ever living power
OF the Chicago spirit.
Michigan avenue Is without a peer
in the world for natural beauty and
