grown In the evolution OF our politics"
The battle for progressive govern
ment In the United States for hun
dSed years has been in the main a
succession of conflicts with the Sen
ate. The Senate was the citadel of
the most arrogant and vulgar pluto
cracy that ever existed in a civilized
country. II is still the citadel of ev-
cry form OF special privilege that is
intriguing for what Gov Cox calls
IAN underhold in government"
When its abuses became iHtolerable
the American people took from the
State Legislatures the power to elect
Senators. but the fundamental evil
still remains-that the Senate as
whole is irresponsible and cannot be
compelled as body to give an &C
counting OF its stewardship.
The House OF Representatives is
compelled to go before the country
every two years. The President must
90 before the country every four
years. The Senate never goes before
the country. It is never possible in
any election. except as vacancy
here or there may have occurred, to
have more than one-third OF the Sem
ators before the bar of public opinion.
In consequence the Senate has SO
arrogated to itself the legislative
power of the Government that the
House OF Representatives is little bet
ter than a rubber stamp. Having
seized the legislative power 1t is now
trying to seize the executive power.
Tn a great crisis like this in the af-
fairs of all mankind. Senator Harding

than to strengthen still further the
hands OF a partisan Senate oligarcht

THE ORANGE

This issue OF the Marion County
Floridian" is dedicated to the orange.
There is something romantic about
the orange. What fruit is there that
so kindles the imagination of those
who have never seen it growing, or
so enraptures those who see it for the
first time?
The orange grows to perfection in
Marion county. 1t was found grow
ing wild here in the rich interior coun-
try. When the freeze of '95 came
there were orange groves throughout
the county. upon the hills, around the
lakes, in the hammocks, and in the
open spaces. The towns had groves
as settings.
The freeze did not kill the orange
1t killed the spirit of the growers. The
orange insists on growing in Marion
county. and throughout the county
today there are groves that are pitt
able in appearance, alive and uncared
for. alive in spite of the frosts, only
too ready and eager to respond to the
care OF those who know their needs.
Today Marion county is beginning
to awake to the fact that she has been
suffering from an adverse psychology
resulting from the freeze of '95, and
is beginning to realize that even now,
as result of the good work of those
in whom faith was not frozen, the or,
ange is her largest single cash crop,
and that she has groves second to
none in the world in the quality of
their fruit. With her richer soils, few
er diseases, wild stock and Sturdier
trees, she promises soon again, as
she rightly should, to become the
most important citrus county in Flor
ida.

horticultural resources, combining" as

$50, 900 Own Property, Leading
All Other Places OF Size,
Mccain Declares
Is, 900 More Houses Will Be
Constructed This Year,
Despite High Prices
BY GEORGE NOx MCCAIN

MORE people own their own homes
ASI IN Philadelphia, in proportion to
population, than in any other city in
the world. There are something like
100000 Of them. This number has in
creased since the war.
II Is the city Of homes, as was the in =
tention Of its founder. William Penn.
There are no slums. There are crowded
sections in the older quarters. but under
enlightened state and city laws the
vast number of them have necessary
sanitary conveniences.
II is estimated that from 10000 TO
20 600 houses will be built this year.
The increased cost Of building material
and labor will keep the number within
or below that limit.
During the world war the United
States Government built more than 5000
houses here to accommodate industrial
workers. About 2000 of these gov
ernment- built dwellings are unoccupied.
The reason is that they are not readily
accessible.
There are still twenty two miles of
streets in this city without sewers.
There are more than 5000 privy vaults
menace to the health of the particular
neighborhoods where they exist. Under
the act of June IL. 1915. creating a
bureau of housing and sanitation the
city authorities are enabled to control
the erection Of new dwellings.
Direct Sanitation
It Is the duty Of this bureau to see
that all needful sanitary precautions
are taken to insure the protection Of
life and health.
The gratesr single agency in the re-
generation Of the overcrowded and
poorer sections is the Octavia Hill As
sociation. 1t was organized twenty
three years ago. and incorporated, to
improve the living conditions in over
crowded districts. 1t buys, restores,
manages and improves run down dwell
ings. 1t removes conditions that are
detrimental not only to the neighbor-
hood, but to the entire city. 1t is
remarkable organization, and doing a
remarkable work.
The Philadelphia Housing Associa-
ton is another organization interested In
raising the standard of home life, and
in the erection of modern dwellings,
Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1920-03-15

within the corporate limits Of the city.
Co operating with 1t, and in touch with
the Bureau of Housing and Santa :
tion, are eighty-five other organiza =
tions.
The city Bureau Of Housing and
Sanitation does not function fully for
lack of money. 1t depends upon civic
societies like the Housing Association
and affiliated bodies to report cases of
violation of the law.
It has few inspectors at work, as 1t
should have, to discover violators. With
the city planning bureau. IL sees that
new dwellings are equipped with all
sanitary conveniences. 1t compels the
introduction of these where they do not
exist in the poorer quarters. With all
this, however, the question OF housing
hundreds Of thousands in this city is
still problem.
The tendency of great manufacturing
establishments to get away from the
city proper and into the adjacent sub
urbs is in a way aiding in the solu
ton Of the question. There is a greater
disposition than ever before on the part
of working people to demand not only
comfortable and roomy homes, but
dwellings of tasteful architecture.
The question of housing is intimately
connected with that OF city transpor-
tation.
What is known as the annual turn
over" in labor is less in Philadelphia
than any other city. Investigation in
dicates that manufacturers are endeav-
oring to secure homes for their EN-
ployes as near as possible to shops,
mills and factories. 1t saves the time
and energy of the workman where be
is within easy walking distance of his
employment Likewise it reduces con-
gestion on trolleys and subways.
Plan and Extend Streets
The Bureau of Surveys and Planning
has to do with laying out streets for
the extension of the city. Better
houses have been erected, and in greater
number. in the past FIVE years thar
ever before. But beyond planning, this
city bureau can do nothing more. The
Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1920-03-15

Home buyers and the better class OF
workmen avoid them. Self respecting
laboring men and mechanics regard
themselves upon higher plane.
The question of suitable homes for
Philadelphians must largely be solved
by private capital. The city will help
as far as possible In securing light, air
and healthful surroundings. Yet still
there persists the question Of the poorer
and overcrowded sections. Civic or
CARNATIONS can do much with them,
particularly II the city will establish
a definite plan Of diagonal streets.
These parkways Of the poorer quar-
ters must come sooner or later.
