EXTEND MARKET STREET.

To The Editor:
The decision to include n sufficient
sum of money in the proposed bond is
sue to complete the widening of Mar
ket street from Main plaza to South
Alamo street is most proper and will
undoubtedly meet with the voters ap-
prevail. But to get the full benefi, of
this investment. Market street should
be extended east beyond South Alamo
street for block or two in order to
relieve traffic congestion at Com
mcrce and Alamo streets.
II it is not deemed advisable at
this time to carry out the original
project of opening Market street to
Water. then extend st. Joseph street
south TO meet the suggested one block
extension of Market street and give
our growing traffic another outlet.
When the new traffic signals are
installed on Commerce street. the
same as are now operating on Hous-
ton street. all left hand turns will be
eliminated in the territory served by
this system and the necessity Of open
ing Market street, east will become
more and more apparent.
Progress is the order of the day and
no good citizen should stand back for
reasonable improvements, especially
such meritorious proposition as
street opening and widening.

A TOURIST SPEAKS.
To the Editor:

To the Editor:
Will you allow me, as n camper
tourist who has spent mighty fine
summer in your delightful city. TO
place before the -eading public few
thoughts which have occurred to me?
To the most casual observer the
thought must suggest itself that the
reason the rangers have been brought
to San Antonio is for the purpose OF
giving protection TO the Ku Klux Kan
while it is being organized. Before
this. the khan has not been able to
make any Roadway here because the
then sheriff. and now mayor. was and
is openly antagonistic. But what
change! Just as soon as the khan
succeeded in having enough rangers
stationed here 10 make it safe for the
khan TO come out in the open. they an
nounce an advertised meeting.
Let no one for n moment besuile
themselves with the belief that the
beautiful tranquility you Lave hitherto
enjoyed in your fair city is going TO
continue for very long. Not if the
khan continues to grow. As soon as
the khan gets enough policemen. con-
stables. deputy sheriffs. deputy dis
trict attorneys and judges in 1t to en-
able it to break the law with impunity
then look out. Nothing will stop it
except martial law. One hundred per
cent Americans! 1t is TO laugh, or

LETTERS TO THE LIGHT

should The method on this flood pre-
vention vary from the almost unwrit-
ten law which applies to all public I'M
prOvements? 1t is universally con
cedcd that property directly benefited
by any public improvement should
bear two thirds of the entire cost to
the city's one-third. In the state of
Missouri, where | was raised ans!

ments including drainage, flood pro-
lection, sewers, paving and bridges.
ETC., were paid for by the property
owners in direct proportion to the
amount they are benefited. find that
in this city street paving, street widen
ing and numerous other public works
and two-third basis, as elsewhere. For
instance. if an important thorough
fare is to be opened through the city.
as understand it, the city provides
one-third of the total cost OF widen
in, opening and paving, the prorerty
owners on both sides paying two-thirds
because they are directly benefited IN
that proportion. Why then should not
the benefited property owners in the
flooded district pay two-thirds of the
flood prevention work and the city as
n whole pay their usual one-third.
Why should a small group of wealthy
and influential property owners in the
flooded area. who probably have in
flucnccd this editorial. be favored in
taxation by competing all property
owners, many of whom are only in
directly benefited TO pay fo~ work ard
improvements which vii, directly
benefit the flooded area?
1t happens that property which ]
own in the flooded area is valued by
our assessor Mt more than the value
of my home. which is more than one
mile from the high-water mark. 81

,uld We stand appalled, at such

should We stand appalled, at such
gall?
The particular thought / wish to
bring to the attention of the thinking
people of San Antonio is that once
you allow the khan to get a strong
foot hold here, you may wave fare
well to civic pride aid the future adj
vancement of your city. To accom-
plish these things requires team work
of the highest order The result of
khan activities in all other parts of
the country has been to array father
against son, brother against brother,
and neighbor against neighbor. 1t is
useless for the leaders of the khan to
claim that the khan is governed by
high and patriotic principles, for the
khan has by its own acts made its
spoken word of no force and meaning.
For San Antonians to view the rise
of the klau here with such apparent
eQuanimity is beyond the comprehen-
sion of one who has seen the evil eff
fects caused by khan activities else
where.

VISIBLE is INVISIBLE.

To the Editor:
With poll tax-paying time at
hand and a warm political campaign
ahead, l am wondering if there are
many voters as dissatisfied as l am
with the prospects of electing men
to state office who will be in reality
a choice Of the people.
Present indications are that the
same order of things will prevail.
That is, the Democrats will go into
the primary and eliminate and the
nominees of that party will defeat
the Republican ticket.
As l understand a primary. it is
for the purpose of selecting standard
bearers for party whose members
are agreed on principles. The Demo-
cratic party today, in Texas, at least,
is far from being of one mind on
issues that are uppermost. There is
one wing of the party that believes
in invisible" government and the
other wing is firmly contending for
court houses, juries, freedom of re-
ligious conscience, etc. The propon-
ents of invisibiiity are now at work
behind masks and in the dark of the
moon laying plans whereby men of
sworn allegiance TO their "invisible
emperor" shall be nominated as the
standard bearers of the Democratic
party. 1t may be that if they see
they cannot nominate their candidates
in the primary by fair means. they
will employ creek-bottom methods,
and, invoking their invisible code,
put them across anyway. To my
mind the Democratic party in Texas
is controlled by this element, although
firmly believe they are in the
minority.
1 am bold to claim that Texas
people are opposed to methods en-
ployed by these conceited persons who
hail themselves perfect Americans.
If given n chance to deal with
their methods voters of Texas will
turn them down and drive them to
oblivion. To do this we must meet
them in the open. We cannot do
this in the primary.
Personally l am in favor of all
voters who are opposed TO masked ac-
tivities in Texas remaining independ-
ent of the Democratic primary. Let
us go into the general election with
strong ticket of men who are indie
pendent of every influence. men who
will face the voters with open coun-
tenances and enunciate their princi-
pies fearlessly and without reserva-
ton. Texas is in the hands of the
Ku Klux Khan. 1t should not be
and it shall not be if the sovereign
voters shake off the party collar and
stand out as free men and women.
l do not seek any office. | am
interested solely in Kidding Texas of
deceitful. hypocritical office-holders
and routing the. hooded and masked
enemies of orderly government.
Until the issue of invisible govern
ment VS.. visible government is settled
the Democratic primary cannot be
what it should be. means of select
ing standard bearers for citizens
agreed on principles.
| am anxious TO know the senti-
ment of the people. / have already
talked with a number of men and
received letters from some. who be-
lievc as i do. ] would appreciate
the views of any who feel interested
and would welcome their ideas. either
through personal letters or through
the press.

A COUNTY BOND ISSUE.

To the Editor:
l note that the Express has edi-
torially denounced the two zone bond
issue. 1T can't be done" That is
one time they told the truth. Neither,
in my opinion, will any other bond is
sue be put over at this time.
Taxes are too high now. The peo-
pie are tired of having their taxes
raised every time some one thinks of a
plan TO raise the taxes. The people
were ready two years ago to vote a
bond issue. That was before they
found out that no one knew what was
necessary to prevent repetition of
the September flood. They are now
aware that no two engineering firms
are agreed on what should or should
not be done.
The Express cry for flood protec-
ton, may be because their building
sets upon the bank of the river. The
river was there before the Express. 4
two zone bond issue would hit them
pretty hard, yet they wan tn. entire
city 10 furnish them protection.
Let's go one better. make it a coun-
ty bond issue. The flood did and will
continue to do damage above and be-
low the city. Let's make Alamo
Heights and all other heights as well
as the lowlands, in fact. everybody in
the county help to protect against the
flood and if they will not do this
then let's wait until they do or until
we find out what we want and what
it will cost to do it.
