SEWER SYSTEM FOR Stafford

What our town needs more
than anything else to make it a
clean, healthful town to live in,
is a sewer system. and it would
be a splendid idea for the new
council to get busy at an early date
and take up the matter of build
ing a sewer system that will
put the cesspools out of business
and destroy the breeding places
of mosquitoes and fever germs.
1t should not be necessary for
an epidemic of typhoid fever or
some other disease, primarily
caused by the present system of
cesspools, to break out and kill
off a number of people before
before taking action. The mat
ter of a sewer system should
be considered now,. when we are
enjoying good health, or think
we are.
A sewer system for Stafford is
the one best improvement for our
town and we hope the present
council will take up the prop
osition seriously.

RUN AUTOMOBILES ON HOT AIR

The latest attack on the oil in
dustry is the accusation that the
oil companies are creating a gas
oline shortage by exporting oil in
order TO later raise the price of
gasoline.
To meet this unjust charge, the
leading Pacific coast oil compan-
les state they will welcome an
investigation by the government.
The companies state that only
two per cent of oil produced and
passed through California is used
for export purposes. Large guam
titles are shipped to Washington,
Oregon and Nevada, but to pre-
vent this an interstate embargo
and litigation would be necessary
and it would be unfair to cut
these states off from a supply.
Some day the pdblic is going
to wake up to TIE fact that in
vestigations do not produce OIL
The politicians, vino for years
have blocked oil development,

According to the tentative
budget of town expenses for the
coming year, we notice that the
last payment on the fire truck is
due and will be paid this year
out of the taxes received from
property holders. .s
The town becomes the owner
in reality of one Of the best fire
trucks manufactured and one chat
assures quick, decisive work
fighting fire.
Behind this is one of the best
volunteer fire departments in the
State, composed of young men
who have become proficient as
fire fighters and on the job at
the first ring of the fire bell.
Our fire department is our
greatest pride and we are glad
that we will have oar apparatus

Imports from U. s.
 to Canada Lower

Ottawa, Feb. 14.-There has been a slight natural decrease" fin inn ports from the United States recent ly, owing to the adverse exchange situation, according to officials of the Canadian Trade and Commerce Department. The officials believe that the falling off is also due, to some extent, to the fact that mef- chants are waiting for more favora- ble times, to stock up.
 Advocates of "Made-in-C Canada goods admitted today that certain necessities of life must be secured from the United States, but declared that there were other things produc- ed in Canada of quality equal to any which, could be brought in from other countries.
 Officials are urging Canadians to buy at home more freely, rather than to call fer imported goods, if exchange rates are to be kept with in reasonable limits.

 "An analysis of the figures would not justify a charge of profiteering yet it does seem," said MT. Williams "that an advantage is taken of every opportunity to increase the cost tc the consumer"

NEW JERSEYS FIGHT
 FOR WET STATE IS
 ALONG TWO LINES
Enact State Law, Assail Con- stitutional Amend
 ment


 Trenton, N. J., Feb. 14.-The battle in New Jersey, led by Governor Ed ward J. Edwards, for state rights as against constitutional prohibition IS being fought along two lines: An effort to induce the legislature to contest the validity of the 18th amendment in the United States Su- preme Court and to enact state law permitting the sale in New Jer- sey of beverages containing more than one-half of one percent of al cohol.
 Steps necessary to fight the prohi- bition amendment in the supreme court have been considered in con ferences between the new governor and the state attorney general. Two bills have been introduced in the legislature, one to permit the sale of beverages with four percent of alco- hol content and the other five per- cent.
 Governor Edwards was elected on on an issue of personal liberty, He gave pledge Tn his campaign to insist the right of the people of New Jersey to say how they should live. His attempt to- fulfill that pledge has made this state one of the few remaining battlegrounds for the right of man to buy drink and has attracted attention through out the country.
 The governor, in attempting to as sert and maintain the sovereign rights of the state as against federal constitutional prohibition, must deal with legislature controlled by the republican party while he is a demo- crat. New Jersey not only failed to ratify the federal prohibition amend ment, together with Rhode Island than any other state in the union and it's legislature absolutely re, jccted the amendment. The governor has urged the legislature to refrain in it's present session from now giv- ing it's ratification
 Although Governor Edwards holds liberal personal views concerning the use of intoxicants, his friends say that he has not taken drink of intoxicating liquor in more than 30 years, upon advice of his physician.
 Edwards is man of action rather than an orator but, in his campaign made an impression in his. speeches by directness and frankness. His ii considered staunch party organiza tion man, of more than average busi- ness ability, tolerant and loyal; d home-loving man, one whose greatest pleasure in life is in playing games with his little grandchildren. His home is in New Jersey. He is 56 years old, president of the First Ma tional Bank of Jersey City, served for six years as state controller in which office he established "pay as-you-go policy" for New Jersey. and for about one year was state senator. He is married and has one son, Capt. Edward I. Edwards Jr., who served overseas in the war, and a daughter. He is vestryman of

 The pledge each is asked to sign reads:
 Fl. I shall purchase nothing which is offered at excessive prices, but will content myself with some oth- CT article or do without.
 "2. will plan careful budget this year or keep a careful record of expenditures.
 "3 I shall not consider it neces- sary to follow the whims of the nour, but buy when necessary, fol service and economy.
 A. l shall help other women in shis movement to set standards oi careful, conservative but economical buying"
 When the wod is given by tht executive committee of the state all the women are expected to quit buy ing any article Of food or wear nam edt The women have chosen pota toes for their first victim, not of a boycott, but of the operation of economic forces. Nebraska raises more potatoes than she consumes but prices here range as high as anywhere. The dealers say that it is because the demand is greater than the supply. The women now propose to perform an operation on the demand by substituting beans and hominy, which rank equally high in nutritive value, but the tbout half the price.

Safety First Club in Shanghai Aims
 to Halt Disease

Shanghai, Feb. IA Shanghai has what is called a Safety First Club," the single aim of which is to prevent the introduction of disease into for eign households through servants. The organization is an outgrowth of activities of St. Luke's hospital and lit was former to enable members, in return for fixed fees, to have their Chinese servants examined at the hospital periodically.
 The need of such an institution in Shanghai is appreciated when it foreigners are domiciled in city sewers and in which none of the or public health exist. Wages are ex- Occidental standards, and range from $6, Mexican, month for a coo!ie house boy up to probably $t5 a modest establishment that has not two or more native domestic work ers.
 Leprosy in advanced stages is to be met with in Shanghai's streets,
  berculosis claims 15 percent of the Chinese who die every year, traco- ma is common, typhoid and para typhoid are ever preseit, the social diseases are most widespread.
 The foreigner has sought to safe guard his health by following the common practice of engaging his physician by the year, under con tract, and by other means. Yet it is felt that the door of the foreign household has been left open to in lection by ignoring the condition of servants who are recruited from all quarters of the community and who for the most part come from out side the limits of the international settlement that forms the heart of the ciiy. It is to deal with. this source of danger that the Safety First Club was formed.
