CANNING COMPANY MADE
REQUEST OF CITY FOR SEWER
Needed for Disposal of Waste at the
Plant. The Matter Has Been Re-
| ferred to a Committee.

Messrs. M. H. Harper and w. L.
Battle appeared before the council
and requested that the city install a
sanitary sewer connecting with the
new canning factory in order to take
care of the waste from that plant,
urging that this be done at the ex-
pense of the city as an encourage
ment to manufacturing enterprises
and an inducement to them to locate
here.
These gentlemen also stated that
in order to get water to the canning
factory permission was secured
of the Dawson Variety Works to run
a pipe through the yard of that COM
pany and connect with its pipe, and
also asked that the city pay this ex-
pense, which amounts to about $50.
A motion was adopted that the
city pay one-half of the cost of the
water connection, and the matter of
sewerage connection was referred to
q committee.

WHEN FRANCE REBU1LDs.

have you Americans any COIL
ception Of what the requirements
of France will be, when the allies
have won the war and our coun.
try begins its work of recon.
struc tion?" This question was
asked me a few days ago by a
prominent business man of Paris,
who. having been gassed, can no
longer fight. and is visiting this
country. From what he pro-
ceeded to relate it is evident that
comparatively few on this side do
realize what our export trade 10
France is destined to become.
For many years. he said,
"our people secured their machin-
cry, printing presses, tools, cleo
trio machinery. ard lighting fix
lures, etc., all from Germany.
This was because German prices
were lower than other countries.
But now! Germany could not
name price which would induce
Frenchman to buy of her, 10
matter what his need. England
will be busy supplying her own
wants and those Of her export
trade, hence we are looking to
your country. Our textile mills,
nearly all of which were in north
east France, have long since been
destroyed and the machinery car
ried into Germany. Our textile
manufacturers are already max
ing new start in southwest
France; securing what little ma
chinery they can. With the end
of the war this industry will be
one of the first to resume, and we
shall require, of textile machin-
cry alone, over 2O0,OO0,0O0 francs.
1 could 60 on down list Of a
hundred articles, whose require
ments, while not so great, will in
the aggregate total vast sum.
Partly because our people regard
the Americans so highly, and are
full of admiration for the splen-
did things they are doing in our
country, and partly that We may
know and read your language,
great numbers Of our people are
studying English, not only to be
able to read it, but to speak 1t as
well. We expect to offer such
attractive opportunities. espec-
tally to constructing engineers
and mechanics of all kinds. that
thousands Of your young men will
remain in France, at least during
the first two or three years Of re-
construction. "-H. Fl. Windsor,
