Bids will be called for Immediately
and construction will begin as soon
as the rear of the present mill can be
wrecked and materials assembled for
the building.
The new building will supplant the
old Isham mill fronting on Kimball
Ave, and will be modern in every
detail. Brick, concrete and steel with
necessary timbers will make up the
materials to be used.

DAY OBSERVANCE

Committees of the Grand Army,
the Womens Relief Corps and the
American Legion are arranging for
the observance of Memorial day. By
direction of the G. A. R. national com
mander, the Sunday service will be
on the 23rd of May. For many years
it has been the custom of the four
largest churches of this city to hold
this service in rotation annually and
this year the Rev. F. L. Cook of the
Christian church will preach the SER
mon, but by the usual courtesy of the
Methodist people, the service will be
held in their church, and be a union
service of the city churches, with
special music of united choirs.
Memorial day observances will be
held in the Methodist church also,
Monday afternoon May 81. Colonel
E. G. Davis making the address.
The soldiers graves will be decor

forces. All soldiers and members of
patriotic orders are invited to attend
these services and be seated in a
body.

its present vacillating and unpopular
FUNDING BONDS.

April IS, Caldwell tax payers will
vote on two bond proposals. One is
for the sum of $3.50 for an Ameri-
can Legion memorial building to
serve as community center, the 9TH
er is for bonds in the sum of $4,000
for funding purposes. In other words
this second proposal is to vote bonds
in an amount sufficient to pay certain
current Indebtedness and to take up
deficiency warrants held at present
by Caldwell banks.
1t is with the second proposal that
we are now concerned. AS matter
of business, no votes should be cast
against that issue. In the first place,
they in no way relate to the first and
larger proposal. Defeat Of one will
not affect the other.
Secondly, should every vote on el-
ection day be registered in opposition
to those bonds, the city can still Of
fer them for sale and dispose of them
for the purpose for which they are
intended. They have been submitted
to Caldwell property holders for ap-
proval simply to increase their mar
reliability.

Every property owner in Caldwell
will actually be money ahead by 60
ing to the polls and voting in favor Of
them. 1t is a duty that is owned the
municipality. With the bond market
uncertain as it is at present, it is es-
sential that every possible means be
exercised to insure obtaining an equit
able and fair price for those securi-

the crop is considered. But better
health, a place of real recreation
where that recreation IS worth while
and the satisfaction which always
comes from accomplishing something
worth while will more than offset
financial considerations. And, from
strict standpoint OF money invested,
it is indeed poor gardener who can
not raise enough lettuce, radishes,
peas. tomatoes oh what not to more
than offset his original outlay for
tools, seed and water.
Every indication points to a great
ly reduced quantity of agricultural
products this year. Labor is high
and hard to get because men are be-
ing drawn to industrial centers, at
tracted there by the extraordinary
wages offered. Reports from the u.
is. D. A. indicate a material shrink
|age in the estimated wheat produc-
ton because Of adverse weather con-
ditions and is is considered likely that
nowhere will none OF. the major crops
will equal last years's production.
While individually, small garden
plats do not produce great deal. in
the aggregate they were potent fac
tor in maintaining food surplus in
the United States during the war
With present chaotic conditions in
many parts of the world that are or
dinarily depended upon for provid-
ing a share of the worlds food sup
ply and with diminished production
in many other parts. It is inevitable
that food prices at least maintain a
high level. They will probably go
higher than present quotations.
1t is not a question of philanthropy
and the old cry of feeding the world
which should prompt every person
this year to do their bit in raising a
small part of what they consume. II
is business and common sense.

THE REPORT.

To many who were familiar with
the condition of the Caldwell sewer
age system, the report made by Louis
{. Kelsey, consulting engineer, to the
special Commercial CLUB committee
after a careful investigation, will no,
come as a surprise. To many Others
the condition that is revealed comes
~ . distinct shock. For the situa-
ton 10 serious one If for no other
reason than that it has direct relat-
ionship to the health Of Caldwell res
idents. A sewerage system such as
portions of Caldwell 1t present arc
equipped with means only a constant
menace to the health Of the commun-
ity.
More significant than that, from
the standpoint of the city today is
that fact that through making i'm
provements in haphazard way, en-
ormous expenditures must be made
sometime shortly to give Caldwell a
system that will not only adequately
dispose OF its present sewerage but
provide plant capable of caring for
future growth. 1t seems strange that
municipalities insist upon spending
large sums for improvements that
can be nothing else than temporary
and that sooner or later must involve
larger expenditures for alterations
and engagements. if. indeed, it is not
essential to begin again and recon-
struct the entire work.
In recommending that whatever
work be undertaken, have in view the
future needs of the city, based on a
growth and development that is in
cvitable, Mr.. Kelsey struck a chord
that will react with every person Of
business foresight. The Tribune
holds and has often repeated that any
civic expenditure should be less de-
signed for the needs of the present
than for coordination with larger
and most comprehensive plan to fu-
ture needs.
As we see 1t, there is only one thing
that can prevent future mistakes OF
the same nature. That is, obviously,
to outline plan based on a 10 year
period that is evolved with care and
foresight and that not only looks to
the requirements of the city but also
to the matter of a just and equable
distribution of expense that will re-
suit in taxes not so high that they
constitute a menace to the city's
growth. The Tribune is heartily in
accord with the recommendation
made by Mr.. Kelsey that capable
man be employed to devise such a
plan and that made bv the special
committee to an identical end.
i must be said in passing that no
little credit must be given the attcn-
ton that has been given these mat
ters by representatives of the Com

MExIcO'S MIDDLE.

1t is evident that Carranza has lost
whatever hold he may have possessed
on Mexico and Mexican people. Ev-
cry report from that revolution strick-
en- country conveys the information
that additional military units have
joined the insurrectionists until that
movement seems to have taken on cv-
cry aspect of national uprising that
has few opponents.
The province of Sonora, just south
OF the border. led in the movement to
overthrow Carranza. Because this
particular portion of Mexico is far
more Americanized than the major
portion of the country, the sympathy
of the usually tickle American peo-
pie went out quickly to the revolu-
tionists. In fact, it is doubtful If
many Americans feel an iota of COM
passion for the Carranza regime.
Casually, it may seem that the
United States, adhering strictly to a
foreign policy which prompts a
"hands off" tactics so far as foreign
affairs may be concerned and policy
which so far has withstood the ap-
peal to draw this country into lea
que of nations, has no interest in
Mexican affairs. Unfortunately that
is not true. II has been the time
that this country is responsible for
the welfare of every nation on each of
the western continents. That, in es-
sence, is what the Monroe doctrine
stands for.
In Mexico, the present administra-
ton has signally failed in living up to
the terms of that responsibility. While
the United States is by no means an
international policeman, nevertheless,
in assuming the responsibilities un-
der the Monroe doctrine, it is essen
tial that we protect, not only the in
terests of American investors of
whom there are many in Mexico. but
also those of every foreign country.
Revolutions are not conducive of in
dustrial development.
But these are old things. More di-
rectly we are concerned with the pre-
servation OF American life in Mexico.
And it will be miraculous if in the
present chaotic conditions there, more
than one American citizen does not
pay with his life for the negligence Of
the present administration in pursu-
ing a gumshoe policy toward Mexico
that is largely responsible for every
difficulty there.
Some day the United States must
wake up to the realization that by
some means peace and normal de-
velopment of her enormous potential
wealth must be insured Mexico thru
the medium Of American interference.

Revolutions will continue in Mexico
