It's 2 Shame.

We have run all out Of sympathy for the people Who
sent money to Uncle sam last summer for foodsuffs
Letters and telephone calls galore have been received in
complaint.
If everybody who bought army food through the
posofGces. who. thus have received neither the
food their money back. should direct to Sec
rotary Of War Baker on having their money
Immediately the foods they have paid for they might
get some results
II be easily understood the disposal Of the
supplies Of the in small lots and retail
tremendous lot OF work that might be reason
for some congestion and delay the delay has gone
entirely far People who bought paid for things
the government had to sell back three months
ago have not received them neither has their money
been returned These people are being made TO suffer
considerable hardship. Many of them have not the
money TO take advantage of army sales now gone
because their money is tied up in things which
have not been delivered and they have means Of
knowing whether they will be delivered
II seems if there gross mismansgem some
where along the line and if the people who are bene
made to suffer from should protest headquarter
and demand immediate action there doubt that
they would get action in very And if that
did produce results letters senator's and member

from this The Light and Water Commission has power
only TO operate cannot create bonded indebtedness
that function entirely with the Town Council The
members the Light and Water Commission were astue
and made no move towards bringing about the reforms
demanded by people, because necessary for the
Town Council to submit the proposition to the people for
referendum as to either issuing bonds, or selling the
light and water system to private interests This fact
seems not to have upon the present members OF
the Town Council that they had duty to perform and
that the entire matter with them to bring about
action. They simply waited for the Light and Water
Commission to act and that body having no real desire
to act did make any towards bringing this re-
building of the light and system to practical be-
ginning.
AS result this do-nothing policy of the two govern
ing bodies which have do with the public service needs
of the town. nothing been done and there no pros
pect of anything being doneunless concerted action IS
taken by the people themselves.
1t is as plain as the the face that Milford must
have three-commission form Of government with one
responsible head to discharge the duties of government
before anything practical to help the town for
ward. It takes energy ability and common sense TO run
a town or city and Milford is actually suffering loss
from the lack of application Of these necessities Let rs
see if something done to help the condition even
temporarily soon
