Grand total .S3,700,0O0

That Uncle Sam has decided upon
definite housing program for en-
ployes at Rock Island arsenal is
made clearly evident through the
appropriation of $2,775,000 by the
government for the erection Of
homes, conditioned on the raising
of 1925, 900 by the quad-cities, the
whole proposition involving an ca
penditure of $3,70O,OO0
In Moline, the government has de-
cided to loan $4,000 if the Plow
city will raise $125,0OO. Inasmuch
as this is the lowest sum specified
for any of the quad-cities, the plan
is not being an enthusiastically re-
ceived there as in the other COM
munities interested. This feeling
was intensified when it became
known that East Moline's allotment
is $450,00O if $4,000 is pledged.
Want to See Contract.
When asked relative to the matter
L. r. CIaussen, member of the Mo-
line organization handling the prop
osition, made it clear that be-
fore the proposal was finally &C
copied and the $125,000 asked from
Moline is available, Plow city CAPT
talists would inspect the form of
government contract to see if it
was entirely satisfactory.
I'VE will want to know if the dis
tribution in the quad-cities is equi-
table and if the plan contemplates
private concerns manufacturing
war munitions, as well as arsenal
employees" he said.
1t is understood that the general
sentiment, especially in Moline and
East Moline, is that if the housing
plan is applicable only to men at
the arsenal and excludes those
working in the r. & V. and other
private factories engaged in turn
ing out war material, that the
proposition may not be approved.
Out in East Moline, where the R.
& V. plant is engaged in manufac-
turing munitions on a big scale, it
is felt that this industry is just as
important to the government in the
present crisis as the work being
done at Rock Island arsenal and
that employees at this and similar
institutions should receive the same
consideration relative to the cree
ton of suitable homes as do those
working at the arsenal
