PUBLIC OPINION

To the Editor of The Farmer:
 Sir-People have said time and time again since the beginning of the Ezu- ropean war-'tWhat is the United States doing to prevent this massa- ere and why don't they cease the making of ammunitions for the war ?''
 Let us just give a glimpse of our own city and see the result of the stopping off of making various inn p1ements of war. Before Bridgeport had received these large war orders for the foreign countries hundreds of people were walking around the streets of the city with not a possible chance of securing or buying a job.
 Misery and suffering was in evil dence everywhere; good honest men were becoming drunkards and 1oafers while the merchants of the city were displaying Closing sale signs in their windows.
 Then came the boom. Bridgeport a,woke. Different companies began to get orders for arms and other va riouS implements of war. Inside of a, month people were once more on the road to prosperity. John brought home a bulky envelope on pay day; Mary began to loose that discouraged look and the kiddies were safe in ask ing for pennies.
 The old proverb: Charity begins at home'' was never better illustrated idea, of giving up the making of ar age home misery and strife to appease zine writers

MAYOR WILSON WANTS TO DODGE
 BIC STATE TAX
Will Urge Aldermen to Delay Further the Payment of
 Obligation.

Tonight in his annual message Mayor Wilson will recommend to the common council that payment of the state tax of more than $172.Ooo, be deferred until next year. The spe- cia1 committee of the board of appor- tionment appointed to confer with the city attorney regarding the powers of the board to lay a special tax, has not met as yet. Mayor Wilson however, has repeatedly expressed himself as opposed to the levy of a special tax to pay the state tax this year and on the assumption that next year the in crease in the grand list will furnish assessments that will more than take care of the state tax for both years.
 The mayor also will recommend in creasing the city's bonded indebted ness by issuing bonds for all school houses in the future instead of laying a tax each year for that purpose.
 The mayor will call attention to the plans which the Republican party have in operation for the miles of Warrenite streets. He also claims wonderful results in economy and good works during the past year of his administration.
 The mayor probably will recom- mend the appointment of two more motor cycle policemen to assist in reg u1ating the iitney traffic. It is also believed he will recommend the lay ing of more Warrenite on city streets.
 The mayor will say that the Repub- 1ican party is fulfilling it's promise to give the citizens an opportunity to de- eide whether or not they want com mission form of government. He will call attention to the special cleo ton on this matter to be held on Sat- urday, June 19. But the mayor will not make any comment regarding the ability of a change from the pres o77f
