FUNDS FOR TABLETS

The committee having in CHARGE
the placing of the three tablets on
the Bradford Memorial monument
have placed their order with F T
| Cutler of Barre, who was awarded
the contract. They expect the tab
let's will be ready to unveil on Mem
orial Day.
Although sufficient sum had not
been subscribed within 5000 up to
the time of the placing of the order,
the committee felt that the citizens
OF Bradford would not let the matter
fall through, and consequently have
begun canvass to meet the defici-
ency. Fifty-four years has been a
long time to wait since the town
voted an $500 appropriation for
this purpose, and as the committee
have taken it upon themselves to
risk the expense, it is our duty as
good loyal citizens to make this
movement go cover the top" ANY
surplus will be turned in to the
treasurer of the Bradford Memorial
Park, and placed in the funds for
the permanent care of the Park.
Contributions and pledges have
DSSn iSSSiNCu lllS past week from
M Woodworth, Mrs H L Wyman, No

al Bank, Forrest st. John, Mr. and
Mrs F P Worthen, Mrs Sadie Martin
Young, Anonymous, Blake & Cum
mings. Mr. and Mrs A H Batchelder.

Fd. Austin, w M Gale and Oneido
Bros.
There seems to be a wrong i'm
preston in regard to these tablets.
They will be placed on the large
monument in the Park, and will con-
tain as complete a list as possible
to obtain of names of Bradford
citizens who enlisted in the war and
those who recruited in Bradford
from other towns on the large tab
let to face the library. The one
facing the Low property will con-
tain list of names of Civil War
veterans who afterward made Brad
ford their home, and the one facing
the hotel will contain a list of Brad
fords Spanish-American war veter-
ans.
The committee request that those !
who intend contributing and have
not yet done so send in their amounts
early next week.

Pluck, Push, Pep---and
Over the Top We Go
By Edmond James CatteU

H 40 MILLION PEOPLE living under the
H w best form of government ever evolved
i from the mind of man do not, as general rule,
commit commercial and political suicide because
some other fellow has had LOT of bad luck and
temporarily has lost his head
We are more scared than hurt None of our
basic of wealth or power has been destroy
ed-no great crop failure, fire catastrophe, cpl
demic Scourge.
We are a little out Of breath from running too
fast and winning too many races in too short a
time. Our second wind is due in 'The good old
summer time. We have passed through the
worst; now there must come rebuilding of conf
denceS
Europe will come into new sanity before the
end Of 1922, and the New East with really
Pacific Pacific Ocean, is going to bring lot of new
money into the great poker game of life, and let
some of the other players get cash dividend on
some overdue |. o. US.
I'm betting double or quits on our coming back
stronger than ever before we are year older.

OLD RESIDENT DEAD.

Mr. Edgar Hunt died Tuesday, just
before noon, while sitting in his
chair. Mr. Hunt has been in failing
health for a number of years and
during the past winter has been con-
fined to the house, although able to
be out of bed. He seemed about as
usual Tuesday morning and death
came painlessly without warning. The
funeral service will be held at the
home of G A Jenkins, this (Friday)
afternoon at one o'clock.
Mr. Hunt has long been identified
with the business life of Bradford
and his passing will be noted with
regret by circle of friends here
and about the state in the towns
where the family made its home be-
fore coming here.
VIM. M Gale left Friday night on
a business trip to New York, return
ing Tuesday.

The Harbor Approximation

The project Of the Federal gov
ernment for deepening the channel
in the Hudson River. which was
commenced in 1913, Is now prae-
tically completed. There remain to
be finished only few bits Of dredg-
ing, including the shelf from the
Battery to Canal Street and from
Sixteenth Street to Sixty-frst Street.
The largest single item, therefore,
in the appropriation submitted to
Congress for improvements in the
Harbor Of New York for the coming
year concerns the East River. The
Federal government has Jurisdiction
over the channels Of approach and
those through channels which are
regular highways Of traffic. Since
1915 It has been dredging the East
River, with the object Of making a
channel forty feet deep and thou
sand feet wide from the main chan
mel of Governors Island as far as
the navy yard in Brooklyn. From
there TO the mouth Of Long Island
Sound the channel is to be thirty-fve
feet deep and where possible 1000
feet wide. Through the passage on
the west side Of Blackwell's Island
and through He'll Gate It has to be
narrower.
Hell Gate is the principal stun
bling block in this program. More
than forty years ago work was
started to clear out some Of the
worst obstructions, and II has been
estimated that under the present
project it will require fifteen years
more before a channel Of thirty-five
feet Is completed. Not only are the
technical difficulties resulting from
the lay Of the rock bottom great, but
work is hampered by the fact that
Il may at no time obstruct naviga-
ton. In a single year one Of the
barges used for drilling was bumped
700 times by passing vessels and
on one occasion one Of the dredges
was sunk in a collision. The aver
age run Of the tide is six miles an
hour, but it has been known 10 reach
eight miles.
The opening Of Hell Gate has. Of
course, strategic value In case Of
war. At present only the smaller

Dividing the Taxi Blame
To the Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir; Your article yesterday "Crimi-
nal Incompetence" and the report to
which It refers are interesting. Every
sane person will agree that reckless
ness, especially associated with ineom-
petence in taxicab drivers, Is a menace
to human safety. Is II fair. however.
to blame only tho taxi driverl
The state is. on the judges show
ing, at least guilty Of an equal degree
Of negligence. and with less excuse,
since It's reeklessness In Exposing
many lives 10 danger all the time" has
not behind It the natural urge 70 get
fare"
It hardly makes for good citizenship
TO be told by one state authority that
one has passed a necessary examina-
tiOn, and is eligible for lleensure az a
taxieab driver, and to be told by an
other that the examination Is farce"
worthless" and an "abomination."
An inquiry into the cause Of aeci.
dents would, / am sure, reveal factors
other than recklessness and incom-
petenee in taxi drivers, and might
properly be conducted by authorities
issuing licenses, who should be given
power to eliminate such as they could.
May l say have no brief for the
driver, and neither own nor operate .
car Of any kind. have, however, had
much experience with the New York
taxi driver, arf cannot think Of him
as a brutal slauehteror, wildly driving
his car over mangled bodies.

Effective Mediation

"Permanent" is hardly the word to
apply to working agreements be-
tween labor and capital, however
brought about. But the Lockwood
committee has succeeded in compos-
ing, probably for a very considerable
time, violent and dangerous differ
ences between builders and workmen
engaged In the building trades.
The fact that the committee was
in existence at the time these differ
ences arose was all that averted
strike which would surely have sus-
pended building operations in New
York City, perhaps for the rest Of
the winter. The understanding that
has been reached grants the unions
all they ask and at the same time
satisfies the employers, an accom-
plishment which few mediating
bodies are ever able to perform.
Only one department Of the build
ing industry, that involving masons,
bricklayers and allied trades, is COW
cred by the agreement. And, it
being quite possible that disputes
may arise in other building trades,
it is important that the Lockwood
committee should continue its labors
beyond February, the date set for its
dissolution.
1t has done valuable work since 1t
was called into being, and to-day it
is the nearest thing TO an authorita-
tive industrial tribunal in existence
in this state. Certainly such a body
will be needed in the future. The
Legislature will do we'll to prolong
It's term and to enlarge its authority.

navy vessels pass through it. But IL
will also be Of great commercial
value by Offering a new approach
TO the harbor. More important still,
Il will make possible the develop
ment Of large new terminal areas
by extending the deep channel
within reach Of the lands near the
mouth Of the Sound.
This work is Of value not only 10
New York but TO the nation. New
York Harbor is and will remain one
Of the great ports Of the country.
Twenty-Five years or more ago II
had outgrown its natural facilities.
Since then artificial improvements
have not kept pace with the needs.
No matter what the details OF
terminal developments, the deepen
inc Of the main channels Of ap-
proaeh Is fundamental TO any project
for the improvement Of the harbor.
