Yep, a Few More Bonds

Ordinance No. 1882, author
izing the issuing of $52,935 ito
defray expenses of various
street improvements in the
city," was passed under suspen-
sion of rules at Monday nights
council meeting.
It's just as easy as falling off
a log to introduce and pass bond
issuing measures, but some
times they are expensive luxur-
les which it appears might have
been avoided had more foresight
and better business judgment
been exercised. Increase in
municipal debt is not an agree
able prospect for tax payers to
contemplate or an additional in
ducement to new comers to 10

WEALTH CONCENTRATED

Twenty thousand men, in con-
troll of 1900 corporations, are
the principal beneficiaries of
Americas prosperity. This an
nouncement follows a survey of
tax returns made to the Internal
Revenue Bureau.
The returns show that net
profits this fiscal year of the
1,200 corporations will total $5,-
000,000,000. Total profits of
the remaining 398,O0O corpora
tions will be less than the 1000.
This distribution of wealth, as
shown by government reports,
may renew agitation for string
ent antitrust legislation and
publicity of corporation profits.
It may also be used by those who
insist that the nations wealth is
falling into the hands of a few
persons.

with reports of profits from
some $50 leading corporations
available showing their earnings
for the first half of 1926, it is
clearly indicated that the busi-
ness profits of the present year
will set new high record" the
Journal says. "The aggregate
earnings of this large group are
$568,000,00O, compared with
$470,0O0,0OO for 1925. Of in
dustrial corporations reports
published, 65 per cent run ahead
Of last year and only 35 per cent

TRICKERY REAFFIRMED

At it's annual convention in
New York the National Associa-
ton of Manufacturers reaffirm-
ed it's approval Of the so-called
"open" shop.
Eventually, the public will re-
sent this use of tricky terms and
insist that anti-union employers
honestly profess hostility to
their employees joint action.
A shop is either union or anti
union. The right of workers to
bargain collectively is granted,
or it is not granted.
The term "open" shop is a
cheap artifice that coudl be eX-
pected of card-sharpers. 1t is a
decoy for those who permit 9th
ers to do their thinking.
Can men be honest when they
say they are not interested if
employees join trade unions and
then blacklist or discharge
them?

Laid This on Table

The vetos of the Mayor have
become such an ordinary occur
renee at our Council meetings
that they fail to excite special in
terest among members or spec
tators.
But one among the batch last
Monday brought forth some
criticism, because it vetoed the
resolution asking the Southern
Ohio Public Service Co. to re-
move the tracks from North
Park Place, and get busy on
raising and fixing those on the
south side.
Accompanying the veto was
the recommendation that litiga-
ton be brought by the Solicitor
demanding the company to abate
the nuisance which the Mayor
claims now exists.
Frank Beggs, member OF the
Citizens Committee, objected to
the latter action, because he
If.med there was a clear under
standing that no action be tax
tn in the matter prior to Fri
day, October %. That Mr.. Zim-
norman was at present in Phil
adelphia arranging to finance
the company, and if such snap
judgment as was suggested was
taken, no explanation would
straighten out the tangle which
would ensue.
At the conclusion of Mr..
Beggs' remarks a motion to re-
ceive and file the measure was
amended to lay it on the table.
The amendment was adopted.

Let No Grass Grow

Our well known and efficient
trouble spoilers, Officers Verg.
Dush and Curt Berry, have
again sustained their reputation
of being the right men in the
right place, and of bringing in
the bacon when they go out af-
ter it.
A short time ago the Adams
confectionery store in East New
ark was broken into and robbed
of small amount of cash. The
thief, who entered through a
side window, left no special clues
to work on, but inside of three
DAYS these two eagle-eyed Off
GERS had spotted the offender,
who had left town for the time
being, and arrested him as soon
as he appeared back home.
During a workout he is said
to have owned up and told just
how he pulled the job off, and
at a hearing in municipal court
he was found guilty and bound
over to the grand jury. Being
unable to furnish bond, he was
placed in the county Jail.
This is not the first time these
two officers have displayed a
high order of ability in detect
ing and arresting law breakers
in Newark, and criminals are be-
ginning to break for cover when
they appear upon the scene.
