CITY AND COUNTY
SHOULD ADOPT SOME
PLAN OF WORK
Fiscal Court and City Council Should
Adopt Definite Program Of work
For the Year.

The Municipal Engineering Maya
zine say we should adopt as our motto
"The Belief in Prosperity is Its crea-
tion," and suggest that we start the
dollar rolling-and keep 1t rolling.
A survey was recently conducted by
their offices to determine the attitude
of the various cities regarding public
work and the plans they were making
along this line.
Mr.. William ]. Spaulding, Commits
sioner of Public Property of the City
of Springfield. Mass, says:
In reply to your inquiry regarding
public work under the jurisdiction OF
the Department Of Public Property
which may be undertaken as part OF
the general effort to take up slack IN
labor, our Department has in view the
completion of a 24-inch trunk line
IN miles in length which will cost
something over 100000; also the re-
placement and enlargement OF our
distribution capacity in the downtown
district which will cost perhaps $780,
600 more. We also expect to make ad-
ditions and extensions in our electric
department for taking on commercial
business, which will cost perhaps $751;
900.
We agree with you that the promo
ton of public work is important Per-
sonally, feel that while this move
ment will help some, it will be alto
gether inadequate. We are referred
to the period Immediately succeeding
the Civil War as evidence that we
need have no fears for the immediate
future. At that time the country had
vast areas of uncccupied lands to alb
sorb all surplus labor. This Is now
practically all gone and unless some
comprehensive reclamation scheme,
such as Mr. Lane has outlined is Wig
orously pushed, look for great deal
of unemployment.

ONE BATHTUb FOR 43
NEW YORK TENEMENTS
Commission Finds Saloon Keepers
Convenience Only One Among
1900 Persons.

NEW YORK, July ga housing
survey of a block in East S3d street
made for the state reconstruction
commission shows one bathtub in
forty three tenement houses in which
live 100 persons.
The bathtub. is the property of a
saloon keeper. 1t is for use by the
owner and his family and compare
lively few of the other 4S1 families
on the block have even seen it. How
ever, the fact that the bathtub is in
existence is one of the neighborhood
prides.
The next nearest approach to bath
ing facilities discovered by the inves-
tigators on that particular block was
a stationary wash tub, fitted up with
a partition which can be lifted out on
Saturday nights.
The tenements on the block are far
from overcrowded. There are 1873
rooms for 1903 men, women and
children. OF the children 233 are I'M
der FIVE years of age. There are
twenty-nine boarders in the 461 rented
apartments, none of whom has the
privilege of using the only bathtub
on the block.

Debate Started Two Years Ago.

The real debate in the Senate on a
league of nations. Mr.. Borah said, had
begun two and a half years ago and
he and other senators had taken the
same positions they take nuw.
II am opposed to any interpreta-
tons, reservations or amendments in
this treaty." Senator Borah said, land
I hope the opportunity will be pre-
scented for me to vote against it as
whole.
when the fathers submitted the
Constitution to the states there were
men who thought they could make
reservations. Virginia, New York,
Rhode Island and others did put in
constructions and reservations, but
when the time came to invoke those
reservation the powers constituting
them paid no attention to them what
ever.
And you would put your interpre-
tation into this ratification and then
turn over the power to construe them
to nine men sitting at Geneva. Unless
they have been accepted by the other
powers they will bind nobody"
Replying to a question, Mr.. Borah
said that while he opposed reserva-
tions he might vote for them If the
parliamentary situation permitted him
to express his views in no other way.
