"A DEBT CREATING SPREE"

4
The following editorial entitled
"A Debt Creating Spree" was pub
lished In the Tacoma Ledger Of jan
uary 5th. Tacoma. as you know, is
one Of the principal advocates of the
municipal ownership and operation
of electrical utilities.
approximately $70.O0O,000 was
the debt of cities and towns of this
state on January 1st. II the average
rate of interest is 5 per cent, they are
paying out annually about 81, 800, ,O00
interest. or approximately So per cap
ita for every man. woman. and child
in Washington. Residents of cities
and towns are also paying interest on
the county debt. which is not includ-
ed in the $7O.000.0OO. C. w. Claus
en-, state auditor thinks It is time
to put on the brakes. Many others
think SO. too. He thinks II is time
for a consistent effort to pay off the
debt and to meet current expenses
out Of current revenues.
1t is quite true that while such an
immense debt is drawing interest II
will be difficult to reduce materially
the tax levies. About one-third Of
the tax levy OF the city OF Tacoma is
necessary to pay interest ON debt
and We are no worse off In this re-
spect than they are In some other cit
les and towns.
Municipalities of this state were on
debt creating spree for several
years. There was nothing too good
or too expensive for them. They felt
infinitely wealthy and incomparably
progressive.
The people have begun to realize
what II means to mortgage the fu-
ture. The state auditor suggests In
his annual report that when bonds
are issued for any purpose, the term
for which they are to run should be
regulated by the life OF the function
for which they are issued. In other
words. he would not have cities and
towns issue twenty year bonds for
something that would wear out In
ten or fifteen years. He well says
that we have no right to pass these
dead horses" on to posterity.
His injunction may remind the peo.
pie OF Tacoma that they are now
paying interest on bonds issued for
a new bridge across the city water
way and are still paying interest on
the bonds issued for the old bridge
down town to give way 10 the new.
Twas a short-siEhted fiscal policy
that brought Us to this.
Debt has been piled on several

new GRAND REVIEW
AFTER FIFTY YEARS

Washington. Aug. 17.-In the cele-
bration of the fifteenth anniversary OF
the grand review. which is one Of the
principal features of the forthcoming
annual encampment of the Grand
Army of the Republic, to be held in
Washington, Sept. 27 to Oct. 3, 10000
marchers will pass in line before the
president of the United States and his
cabinet. This was the announcement
made by Colonel George A. Bosley OF
Boston. the national chief of staff,
who is here making arrangements for
the event.
The line of march for the review
will be from the Capitol to the White
House along Pennsylvania avenue,
which today presents vastly differ
ent appearance from what 1t was a
half century ago when the returning
warriors passed I'm grand review be-
fore President Johnson. his cabinet
and the general staff of the army. II
will rival any inaugural parade which
the city has ever witnessed.
The majority of the marchers will
be veterans of the blue. most OF whom
participated in the march fifty years
ago, but 1t will include also those who
belonged to various army corps that
did not take part In the concluding
event OF the Civil war.

DEFENDS RIGHT TO
SELL WAR MUNITIONS

Washington. Aug. 1.-THE United
States will continue to supply muni-
tons to belligerents.
The note of the state department,
in its reply to the recent protest of
the Austro-Hungarian government, in
sists upon the right of Americans to
sell war materials abroad
1t is pointed out that the policy of
the United States is opposed to the
maintenance of a large military es-
tablishment of stores, arms and am
munition
The United States always has de
pended upon the right and power TO
purchase arms and ammunition from
neutral nations in case of foreign at
tack" the note declares This right
which it claims for itself. it cannot
deny to others"
In firm but friendly words the mes
sage rejects the contentious of the
dual monarchy that the governments
course is mot i'm consonance with the
the manufacture and sale, especially
to belligerents," of a large surplus
of munitions. before the present war
by both Austria-Hungary and Ger
many. The shipment of supplies tc
Great Britain by these nations during
the Boer war is prominently mention
ed
Never during that period did eth
er of them suggest or apply the prin
ciple now advocated by the imperia
and royal governments" says the
note.

cation dealing with Mexican affairs
should be addressed personally TO
Venustiano CarranZa. "tbe supreme
authority in our country and the only
man whom a soldier would in every

only capable leader and has remon-
strated his ability to satisfy the "just
aspirations of the people and re-estab

VILLA LIFTS FORCED
LOAN OF 100000

I'll Paso, Tex. Aug. IA forced
loan of 100000. laied by General
Villa against the Lanes Brittingham
soap factory, a Mexican corporation
at Gomez Palacia. has been lifted.
Abandonment OF the plan TO collect
he loan from the concern followed
conferences between the national
leader and General Hugh T.. Scott,
chief of stan of the United States
army. who recently was sent to the
Mexican border on a state depart.
ment mission.
The Gomez Palacio factory enjoyed
a practical monopoly in the purchase
of cotton seed at "a 6Xed price and
the sale of its production under the
Diaz regime. Formerly much of the
stock of the company is said to have
been held by members Of the so called
"Cientifico" party in the form of
bearer" stock certificates.
Suspecting that the certificates In
this form served to conceal the iden-
tity of members of the "cientiiico." I"
who were deriving revenue from prop
erty in this territory, Villa is said 10
have exacted loans amounting 10
more than $250,000 When his last
demand was refused the plant was
confscated. AT a conference General
Scott is said to have convinced Villa
that the stock is now held exclusively
by American and British investors.

London, Aug. IT with the nation
al assemblies of Servia and Greece
meeting, probably to decide definitely
the question raised by Bulgaria's ter
ritorial demands, on which hinge the
question of united action of the
Balkan states with the allies, the out
look is regarded with a degree OF
pessimism in the best posted quarters
here.
Ii is expected Servia will seek a
compromise and Greece will reject
the Bulgarian contentious. Reports
from Athens indicate that King Con
stantine is insisting the new cabinet
must maintain strict neutrality, the
effect of which would be to withhold
Greece from participating in plan OF
united Balkan cooperation with the
allies.
In the meantime there are many
evidences of Austro-German prepara
tions to deal with the Balkan situa-
ton According to information from
Bucharest German army corps have
been concentrated near the junction
of Hungary, Roumania and Servia
This, with the bombardment of Bel
grade and the activity of Austrian ar
tillery at many points along the Dan
ube, lends support to reports OF
great Austro-G German offensive in the
Balkans.
The outcome of the crisis is await
ed most anxiously. as determining
whether the allies will receive new
support from the Balkans and wheth
er Germany's supplies of ammunition
for Turkey will continue TO be shu
off by the Balkan barrier.
Bulgarian officials do not expect al
agreement will be reached, but thu

BEST OUTLOOK IN YEARS
Mercantile Men of All Sections So
View Business Situation.

Duluth, Aug. l7.-Better business
conditions, an actual exhiiration OF
business throughout the country,
measured by dollars and cents, is the
outlook of delegates from all over the
United States who reached Duluth to
attend the annual convention of the
National Association of Mercantile
Agencies.
They declared that the business out
look is brighter than 1t has been for
three years Most of the delegates re-
port good times at hand. This is par
ticularly noticeable, they say, in the
East, where factories are on full
shifts and overtime, with augmented
payrolls.
