NO JOKING MATTER

Poking fun at failing traction

opinion Of the editor of the Ne

What is to be done after the
street car companies are driven
off the streets, their tracks torn
up, their power houses reduced
70 junk and their securities re-
pudiated simply because the!
cannot be redeemed?" it asks.
will the gentlemen who poke
fun in newspaper editorial COM
ment and the political aspirants
who see in every passing breeze
an opportunity to advance their
personal fortunes provide us
with something to take the place
of the destroyed institutions?
''To cripple transportation
lines means to cripple humanity
and retard progress.

PROHIBITION

After six years of blind-pigs,
moonshine, bodyrub, homebreW,
potato mash, ether and shellac,
it finally has been decided Amer
ica is to have prohibition. We
welcome the news. If the coun-
try can't have good liquor we're
glad to see the foul concOctiOns
being consumed today taken
away from the high school boy
and girl and the irresponsible
citizen. Bootlegging has be-
come an established industry
Like the motion picture, it has
grown by leaps and bounds.
This was made possible only
through public patronage in both
instances. Prohibition will nev-
er be a matter of heavy fines
and jail sentences. When it is a
success it will be so because
public opinion throughout every
fiber is in favor of it. Bulldoz-
ing and bullying the public opin-
ion into the proper channels will
not be effected by the methods
proposed at present. It's mat
ter of education. - Virginia

establish an all night train service.
We will not lower the wages of our

ergies toward speeding up the serv-
ice and will not allow any cars to he
idle except when they are being load
ed or unloaded. Our slogan will be
"Keep 'em moving and moving fast "
We have every reason to believe
that this great improvement in our

recognition it deserves.

New Departure

The ordinance fixing the city
budget and appropriating $780,
375 to run the city for the fiscal
year of 1926, was one of the first
and most important acts of the
new city council after it was
called to order at it's first regu-
lar meeting.
Heretofore it has been the
custom to make these appropri-
ations for six months periods,
and why the time was lengthen-
ed to the full year was not stat
ed.

Not Tagged Yet

Every night for the past sew
eral weeks a Buick touring car
of ancient vintage, still carrying
a 1925 license tag, has been
standing parked naked and alone
on Poplar avenue, unprotected
by head or tail lights or DANCE :
signal of any kind.
During all this time it has
evidently escaped the eagle eye
of any cop, for no tag has as yet
ornamented it's weather-scarred
and time honored body. People
in that neck of the woods are Of
the opinion that if a tag was
tied to it with the promptness
which is sometimes given to
similar violation of parking rules
in other localities, the vehicle
would be decorated from stem to
stern with notices to call at
headquarters and settle up.
Seriously, such carelessness in
leaving an automobile standin"
without protecting lights is a
menace to drivers on the street
and should be abated.

BURDEN ON LABOR

Seventy-five per cent of the
income taxes collected by the
German government come from
the wage earners.
In addition, a sales tax, which
produces almost fifth of the
governments total revenues,
bears almost exclusively on the
ultimate consumer.
The Berlin Vorwarts declares
that three-fourths of the gov
ernment's total revenue is a bur-
den on the income of labor and
the consuming power of the
common people.

TAX REFUNDS

The government has returned
more than $151, 100000 to large
taxpayers because of erroneous
or illegal tax collections. Secre-
tary of the Treasury Mellon OBJ
tained $4O4,871.82 and John D.
Rockefeller $457, 7,870.79 during
the fiscal year ended June 80,
1925.
The Mellon refund was based
on decisions made years ago by
the commissioner of internal
revenue, it was stated.

WARNING FROM GREEN

President Green of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor has
issued a circular letter warning
local unions and central bodies
against voting money to pay eX-
penses of communist delega-
tion proposing to visit Soviet
Russia in the name of American
organized labor. He directs at
tention to the action taken by
the Federation at it's Atlantic
City convention in October con-
demning any such proposition.

Remember the Kids

The kids, like the poor, we
have always with us, and they
like the latter are often over
looked by persons in a position
to bring more sunshine into
their lives.
We are young but once, and
the joys of childhood, when once
over are gone forever. So it be-
hooves us all to devote a little
time to adding to these innocent
pleasures.
Such an opportunity now pre-
sents itself. One of the infre-
quent chances of coasting is be-
ing taken advantage of by the
rising generation, who are fully
equipped to enjoy the sport.
But they are denied the use of
the streets as a matter of safe
ty. This no doubt is a wise
measure and doubtless prevents
many accidents.
This being true, why could
not the proper authorities appro-
pirate and set aside several of
the less busy streets in different
sections of the city for shedding
purposes exclusively? Close
them to traffic for the time be-
ing, rope them off and say to the
waiting youngsters: kids,
here's a place for you. Go to il
while the snow lasts"
Police Chief Charles Dewitt
not only is a cracker jack of a
first-class officer but evidently
possesses a wonderful mind
reading ability, for after the
above was in type ready for tn
press, 10 and behold he jumped
to it and followed out the
Hired Mans" suggestion, and
prepared safe place for the
kids to enjoy themselves.
His thoughtfulness is entitled
to commentator and should re-
ceive the cooperation of auto
owners and the children whose
safety and pleasure are so we'll
looked after.
