at lower rate than any other fare
on the system.
An increased rate is asked for.
The arsenal workingman now rides
for 81 a month, which is a frac-
ton over cents a fare. This rate
was put in force during the war
The company cannot change the
rate, which must be referred to the
war department at Washington.
The company has compiled fig
ures showing the decrease in reve-
nue. on this line is due to falling
off of number of men employed at
the big government shops.
With fares already raised in Illi-
nois and in process of being in
creased in Davenport, the COM
pany maintains that the arsenal
lines should be made to bear their
proportionate share of the in
creased wage schedule and in
creased cost of operation.
Several points in the discussion
must be cleared up, it was an
nounced this morning, before any
formal request will be sent to the
capital by the company, requesting
a certain figure of increase.

ly from his home on John street yes

! present partisan township committee
government in raising assessments be-
lyond all reason Will drive these in
ldustries U Of the township and win
make it well nigh impossible for the
average man to own a home
There can be no justification FOR an
increase Of s3.363,5j0.00 in the ratables
Of a single township during 1919, es-
pecially when his increase was due
merely 10 the raising Of assessments
on property already there. not through
the reaching of new property. Vacant
land deprecated during 1918, and there
vas no such increase In property va
lues as to warrant such "a change.
With a proposed budget of $l5S,j20
for 1919. IL the money il 10 be raised
in the same way as last year, by an
other Increase Of assessments ii means
hat the taXpayers will be called upon
TO meet an assessment or |approXlna-
tely s4.036, 10000 more than in 1918.
The new burget is, roughly speaking,
one-quarter more than the size OF that
Of last year, which would mean a total
assessment of fl4,125.35S as compared
with s10.09O, 256 last year.
Woodbridge Township cannot stand
such q raise. The assessments are al
ready In most instances either equal
to or beyond the full value OF me
property. and a further Increase will
mean hat IL will be absolutely neces-
sary for, property owaers 10 get rid OF
their holdings.
Commission Government. however. is
pledged TO a revision OF the assess
ments and 10 an apportionment of the
burden in a Just and equitable man.
ner. II the commissioners fail to keep
this pledge. the voters have the power
OF recall with which to pledge obedi-
nee Under the present government
the voters have no power except that
OF a far distant mex election which
can be disregarded by n officials In
the belief that by that time All will
have been forgotten.
Commission Government, further
more, does away with all the unneces-
sary boards and commissions that ex-
list at present. The Fire Commissioners
and the Light Commissioners will be
done away with. The Fire Department
will be placed In control OF a single
head who can be held directly respon-
sible by the voters for the economical
administration OF his department. II
there Is waste or inefficiency there II
can be traced directly 20 him. There
IS no tossing of the blame from the
Fire Commissioners 20 the Township
Committee and back again.
The same thing is true IN every
branch of the government. Waste is
almost absolutely prevented under the
commission and responsibility for IL
is definitely fixed. so that punishment
for IL is easy. Under the present
government. neither OF these Is true.
