drives for funds. If there are
any charges of misdirection, ex-
travagance or dishonesty in the
conduct of these campaigns
the community now knows on
whom to call for an answer.
There can be no such thing as
passing the buck"
Incidentally, the central
committee is planning to keep
a permanent record of all con-
tributionS which the Individual
makes to various funds. Such
a record can not only furnish
the campaigners with a know
ledge of the givers and nom
givers but it will in after years
prove who were the patriots
and who were the slackers
among those who did not go to
the battlefront.

THE CENTRAL COMMITTEE

m HE organization of a CEN
" trail committee to pass
upon, supervise and di-
rect future war drives in Una
tlIla county is natural, logical
and thoroughly proper. The
nations first business nova
days is war and the central
committee plan is but the put
ting of the war activities of
this community on a business
basis.
With the calls for funds
growing increasingly frequent,
it is no longer good business
to form a loose organization
each time a drive is started.
Such a haphazard way of ans
wering the calls permits of du-
plication, extreme inequity in
the distribution of the burden,
and of excess enthusiasm which
sees only the immediate objec-
tive. Generosity is a fine thing
and it is gratifying to know
that we are giving more than
any of our neighbors but there
is Just a possibility that some
one is going to impose upon
our generosity. A permanent
ly organized committee can not
only see to it that this commu-
nifty meets all of its Just obli-
cations but can also protect the
community from exploitation
because of the fine record made
in the past.
Moreover, such a committee
puts a responsible face in all

THE SACRIFICES OF THE
RICH

IA ITIFUL tales of the hard
- ships which this war is
Z bringing to the rich are
beginning to be told in the
press. Only yesterday there
appeared dispatches telling of
the privations forced upon two
of our millionaire ladies by a
cruel and heartless govern
ment.
Miss Lolita Armour wanted
to make a trip from Chicago to
San Francisco end she made
the perfectly simple request of
the government to permit her
to travel in her private car.
Nc Adoo, with no consideration
at all for the feelings of this
daughter of ham nobility, re-
fused, and for the first time in
her life the young lady was
forced to tra} ell in an ordinary
Pullman.
On the same day Mrs. Cor
n'elius Vanderbilt asked that
she be permitted to travel in
her private car from New York
to Camp Wadsworth where her
husband is a colonel of engi-
neers. McAdoo here also
turned a deaf ear to her en-
treaties even though she de-
clared she would gladly pay
40 fares, the capacity of her
car being 40. She, too, must
go in an ordinary Pullman if /.
she feels she must see her hus-
band.
Such an unfeeling railroad .
rule, one that makes no discri-
between common
clay and the gold crusted, is
almost in a class with lese ma
iesty. Why shouldn't those
who have the money to pay be
favored if they are willing to
pay the price? 1t matters not
that thousands are suffering
from cold, and factories are
idle because of the congestion
N transportation facilities? 1t
not that the govern
nent needs every bit of its roll
ing stock and more for push
ng the shipment of war
stuffs? What is all this to the
disgust to say nothing of the
discomfort that these orchid
aides must feel in associating
With the common herd, breath
ng the same air, sleeping in
he same car and eating at the
;ame tables with men and wo-
nen who work?
. Mrs. Vanderbilt meets the
governments objections with
IN offer to pay for the privi-

BRIDGE STREET BRIDGE
MUST REMAIN CLOSED
UNTIL COMPLETION

The city council has sincerely huret
that some ARRANGEMENT might be madt
with the state highway department.
whereby tho new Bridge street bridge
might be opened to traNc! with vrh!-
cleS without further delay.
As a resul. Of their Investigations it
mas been found that the moment tins
sponsibility ceases. The bridge is al
present iii an unfinished condition ~
The contract calls for a coat Of l'itumi-
nous macad2m and this cannot be
laid in cold weather if The bridge was
TO be used at all before completion
some coating Of other substance would
have to be temporarily used and tue
macadam laid later. In the event ut
this the contract for the mac2danl
would have to he taken over by The
city from the contractor.
AS the city has no machinery with
which 70 do this work and the addition
al fact that the work cannot be done
at the contract price by The city, ii
would clearly he poor business to take
over the contract. While the fact that
the bridge must remain closed to Vclli-
cleS until finished is in some ways to
be depiored, for the fact that il is
badly needed is sclf-evident, the COM
missionerS AL believe that it would be
short sighted to assume The contract
or's responsibility.
