utter helplessness to protect the Dis
trict.
In May of this year there were COL
leeted in Washington 3,040 tons of
garbage as against 1920 in the same
month last year. For July OF this
year the figures were 4,640 tons as
against $3.50 last year and for Au-
gust $500 tons as against $50 a
year ago.
This year, officials say, sweet corn
and watermelons have been plentiful
and that means greater bulk in gar
bage. But for these the falling OF
for July and August would probably
have been greater.
District authorities are sending to
Herbert Hoover each month complete
figures on garbage collection and he
is getting these figures from every
other large city in the country, all in
dicaung less waste in the homes of
the country than ever before.

has been under advisement sor some
! time, and plans for the proposed
structure were drawn long ago. The
cost under those plans would have
been about S700, 900 under normal
building conditions, but the structure
would now cost nearly double that
sum-
In the case of the municipal gar
baee plant, District officials general
ly are loath to see the plaes aban-
doned even for a year, on the ground
that the District has been for years
and is now at the mercy OF one cor
poration. and that money would
eventually be saved, even at high
prices of contraction. IL the plant
ecould soon be built. r-
The Washington Fertilizer Com
l'pany. with a plant at Cherry Hill. Va,
has been the only bidder for collect
ing and disposing OF District garbage
for ten years. In the last fiscal year
Mt contracted to do this work at q
ieost of $6e, $40. Composition appears
ito be impossible because OF the cost
to a new concern OF the necessary
plant.
1 For the present fiscal year the COM
hpany will collect $143,4 from the
District government for the same
work This price, which the District
must pay simply because II is unable
to help itself, is more than double that
tof last year.
Refuse Cost shoots Up.
There is identicaiIy the same situa-
Ltion as to the collection of miscel-
Elaneous refuse. The District must
pay the contractor for that work
t$74,50O this year as against SOS, 400
f1ast year.

it at night when retiring; use enough
to moisten the scalp and rub it in

BY morning. most IL not all, of your

EDITOR THE TIMES:

|EDITOR THE TINES:
In The Times of a few after
moons ago appeared a letter writ
ten by one who signed his name
From q Soldier Who Is Interested
In a Clean CITY," / would like to
take up a little of your valuable
space in reply.
The writer OF the letter should
be found IL II Is possible and add
ed unto the M. p. department or
even be assigned to assist In the
cleaning up of Seattle, for he (if
lit was q man who wro.e it, Is too
well versed on the location OF
these women of vice to be putting
his time in ranks.
One portion of the letter stated
that nearly every hotel in Tacoma
has from one to five women in
them registered as soldiers wives,
when in reality they cannot show
la marriage certificate.
| would like to ask this NOR
al CD young man how he came
to be SO we'll versed, and for what
reason did he take the trouble to
60 to all the hotels in Tacoma;
and l would like to further ask
him how and what process did he
use to ascertain that these ladies
did not have marriage certificates.
Then, to make things sduld more
fishy this would-be moral young
man stated that he heard soldier
say that he was going to telegraph
for his Jane" to come to Taco
ma and he bet that she would
make the dough all right; and
proceeded to tell that the girl did
come and was practicing her trade
in your midst.
VERY, VERY STRANGE, that
this MORAL YOUNG MAN should
take it upon his own shoulders to
wait and see that am immoral
woman came to town and started
to work.
Why is 1t that you (the writer
of that letter. and a few more Of
your kind, when you learn that
conditions are as you say, that you
don't go to the proper authorities
and state what you know and let
the guilty parties be the sufferers,
and not try and put black eye to
the soldiers that are here prepar-
ing to fight for democracy?
1t might behoove large num-
Der of people in Tacoma to bear
the last paragraph in mind, and
liz you know of conditions that
could be improved, there is de-
partment to 60 to with your COM
plant.
Thanking you for your space I
beg to remain, yours,
IN FAIRNESS TO THE BOYS IN
OLIVE DRAB.
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1917-12-05

continuance in time OF peace is
assured.
The New York daylight saving
committee, and later the National
Daylight Saving association, has
for nearly two years called public
attention to the advantages of
daylight saving" and last spring
succeeded In having the bill intro
duced in the United States senate
by Senator William M. Calder.
While 1t passed the senate. it was
held up in committee in the house.
We hope to see 1t reported out
favorably within a few weeks.
No serious objections to the
plan have been raised. Some peo-
pie have urged that time tables
would have to be changed.
On the contrary, all time tables
would have to be changed.
On the contrary, all time tables
would remain the same--only the
clocks would be changed; nor
would 1t be necessary to change
the hours of opening and closing
offices.
Others have urged that individ-
uals could get up an hour earlier
and retire an hour earlier, without
changing the clock. While this
could be done, the fact remains
that we would not change our
daily habits unless our neighbors
did likewise. There is an element
| of psychology in this. Our move
ments are regulated largely by the
clock and to make the plan fully
effective the change of time must
be universal.
In the interest of economy of
fuel and money, the increase in
farm gardening, the promotion of
recreation and health conserva-
