the times 10 far as civic improve
mcnts are concerned. we all know
and IL will continue to lag behind
until the citizens become embued
with sufficient pride To vote bonds
for the much-ncedcd improvements
herein suggested,
or course the Examiner will be
condemned for suggesting q bond
issue at time when everybody Is
crying hard times and calling for a
halt in the expenditure Of public
money, but the people should bear
in mind that bond issue at this
time would not increase the burdens
of the taxpayers for at least ten
years to come. and by that time
everybody would be so delighted
with the improvements resulting
from the bond issue that they would
never kick against the slight increase
in taxes required to meet the bond
issue.

At the meeting of the council last
week Bishop Hotf presented the
question of converting the city's FIVE
acre plot Of ground. just north Of
the Washington school building. into
a park. lie said that there is no
doubt but what the citizens of Mont

favor of the council taking steps tot

there. lie realized that il could not
be done in one year but he felt that

city nor anybody else any good. but
il start was made this year toward
parking it, within a few years 1t

TAFT SAYS COUNTRY
is FACING A CRISIS
tCopyrYht.l

Morristown, N. j., Feb. 22.-The
United States is threatened with
serious invasion Of its rights as
neutral by the warning nations of
Europe and in preserving its com
merce with those nations is face to
face with crisis, in the opinion Of
former President William H. Taft.
In the solution of the crisis. should
it arise, no jingo spirit must be al
lowed to prevail, Mr.. Taft advised,
neither pride nor momentary passion
should influence our judgment.
Mr.. Taft's reference to the situa-
ton confronting the United States
was made at the conclusion of an ad-
dress delivered here today before the
Washington Association Of New Jer-
sey.
Our efforts for peace" he said,
have been made as complete as pos
sible, for the president has already
rendered his good offices by way of
mediation between the powers, and
they have not been accepted.
In preserving the commerce Of
the United States with the belliger.
ents, however, we are face to face
with a crisis. We are threatened
with a serious invasion of our rights
as neutrals in trading with the bel
ligerents. What certainly is an in
novation upon previous rules il
respect to neutral commerce ant
contraband of war has been initiated
by belligerents of both sides. Tn,
planting of mines in the open Sc;
and the use of submarines to sent
neutral vessels to the bottom withou
inquiry as to their neutrality wheI

open sea, are all Of them variation
from the rules of international lay
