PAVING.


Reports arc current that the Warren
Construction company, in charge OF
city paying installation, is to ask for
further extension OF time in which to
complete their work here. We cannot
say that this is true but IL it is, we do
believe that only extraordinary condi
tons should influence the city council
to grant the extension. Already one
substantial extension has been grant
ed. Expiration is far from immenin
1t would seem that right now is hard
ly the time to make such a request.
Several months remain in which to do
the work.
Caldwell people have patiently borne
the disagreeableness attendent upon
torn up streets because they have felt
that unavoidable circumstances have
interferred to hamper progress of the
work. They have been buoyed up with
the realization that disrupted streets
are only temporary and that some
penalty must be paid for the better
conditions to come. But that patience
has long been near the breaking point.
Citizens Of Caldwell demand extraor
binary efforts to complete the work
rather than an extension of time and
further months of impossible streets.

PEACE.

America generally will applaud the
action Of congress in determining to
pass resolution declaring peace with
Germany. 1t is quite evident that, so
long as President Wilson occupies the
White House, no disposition can be
made OF the peace treaty and the lea
que of nations. the two documents be-
ing indissoulable.
To all practical purposes we have
been at peace with the German nation
for almost a year and half, with the
single exception of re-entering upon
the usual diplomatic relations with her
on peace time basis. And it is folly,
when no tangible objection can be
raised. to longer continue that state
of war which exists today. All that
is necessary is for congress to pass
resolution declaring the war at end.
Diplomatic and trade relations will be
resumed.
II the United States had anything to
gain through adoption of the Yer
sailles treaty, there might be some
reason for objection to the contem-
plated process Of negotiating peace. In
reality, however. the United States was
at peace with Germany when the arm
istice was signed We ask no indem
mites, we demand no territorial ben
Gifts.
Will Germany objecta If she chose,
it is not her place. But under the con-
ditions. the method will produce ex-
actly the same result for her that for
NAL acceptance of the terms laid down
by the peace commission would do.
By all means, let us have peace.

CHEAP MEATS.

The United States Department of
Justice is conducting a nation wide
campain to stimulate the use of cheap
er meat cuts as a means to decrease
the high cost of living. Many of the
cheaper cuts of meat 81 begging for
a market while the higher priced por-
tons of the beef, hog and sheep car
cass find too ready sales. No packer,
butcher or packer has any difficulty
disposing Of his highest priced pro-
ducts. Profits on this class of goods
provide funds to cover actual losses
sustained when the cheaper cuts are
reduced to such price that they must
sell.
No one questions that cheaper meat
can be supplied the family table by
purchasing the little demanded cuts.
And the Department of Justice asserts
that an increased demand for this
quality of goods will reduce the prices
Of small err cuts. This is true.
But increased demand for cheaper
cuts will elevate the price which deal
ers may obtain for them. 1t will dis
turb the balance now existing and tend
to equalize all meat prices. So far, SO
good.
When this object has been at
tanned. those families, who, through
necessity have been subsisting on
cheap meats will find prices beyond
their pocket books. Weather fam.
lilies will discover that they can pur-
chase higher priced cuts more cheaply
than formerly. But these families, the
only ones to actually benefit. can at.
ford airy price that the things the,
demand may bring. The net result,
will be to deprive poor people OF
meats

FOREIGN EXCHANGE RATES
CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

Chicago. Sept. 9.-Wheat prices went up with rush today owing. to reduction Of the government estimate of the 1920 spring crop. The advance, however, was not well maintained, and the market closed unsettled, l 1-2 to net higher with December PAT to PAT 1-4 and March PAS 54. Corn finished 1 l-S to IS cents down. Oats unchanged to Is high CT. and provisions at a rise of 10 to 40 cents.
 At first there was heavy buying of fu- ture deliveries of wheat Most of the de- mand came from houses with seaboard connections. After the upturn in values. though, had reached the highest level for some time, past the market began to act tired. Then came advices that foreign demand at the seabeard was poor and that much export business was unlikely unless sharp rally in European ex- change rates took place. Bulls were also handicapped by pressure from cash inter- ests on all the hard spots in the late dealings.
 Corn advanced sharply at one time with wheat but averaged lower infu- enced mainly by the record-breaking fig ures in the governments report as to corn. Oats were firm. being regarded as low compared with other feeders.
 Export business together with higher quotations on hogs lifted provisions.

 Announcement of the successful offer ing of the new French loan, which was oversubscribed before the opening of the books, was accepted by the financial community as an indication that invest ors are eager to participate in attractive underwritings.
 The only noteworthy drawback was again furnished by foreign exchange, which continued, for the most part to move against European markets. Specu- Iative selling of British and Italian bills was attributed to the tense industrial conditions prevailing in those countries
 Out of town banks contributed to the enlarged supply of money on call, most of which was offered at ' per cent, but relaxed to per cent. later. Short term loans in moderate sums were negotiated at 1-2 per cent for prime collateral
 Shippings, oils, dividend-paying rails and chemicals led the days higher range of prices maximum quotations being reg istered in the final half hour. United Fruit made a net gain of 1S 1-2 points on rurnors of a forthcoming cash or stock dividend, and American International, which is said to have large holdings of United Fruit, rose almost five points.
 Marked strength was shown by Mexi- can and Pan-American petroleums, Royal Dutch. Union and Southern Pacific. Della ware. Lackawanna and Western and Ma Llunal Aniline.
 Steels and equipments were limited to sains of large fractions to almost two points. closing quotations in many in- stances being the highest of the day. Sales amounted to 400, 900 shares.
 Liberty bonds were irregular, but some of the internationals were stimulated by the success of the new French issue, which rose a fraction over par on the curb. Sales (par value) aggregated $S, $50, ,OoO United States bonds were un- changed on call.
