MONEY OWED THE CITY

While at work upon the books Of the public works department Thomas F. McGrath. special clerk, is optimis- tic reearding how thoroughly the iob will be done. The outlook now is that more than $2o0,00O will be found due the city when he is through-verily neat sum to be credited to innocent oversights by city hall. Even private contractors, who had certain work done by men employed by the city. are to receive statements ranging from $1,ooo to S2,000 for the first time.
 The city is faced with all sorts of expenditures; more sewers need to be constructed. the sewer disposal plant is craving for costly Improvements. the city. sanatortum needs recondi- tionine, and so on. The neat sum of S200.OO0. If the. city collects all Of it, will come in. handy. Santa Claus threatens to be kind to city hall but rather unkind to the folk who will be asked to pay their bills.
 Public condemnation for such lax methods will increase as the sum totse of hack accounts increases. It IS quite an unprecedented incident in civic affairs.

PLAYING WITH MATCHES

Because a child four years old played with matches a year ago he has been undergoing skin grating goodly portion of the timc ever since. The lad was snatchcd from death through the fact that two un- selfish flremen and the lads father permitted blood transfusions. Ulti- mately the little boy will be restored to complete health; but to the end Of his days he will remember | year Of suffering.
 Children have . way of setting hold of matches that dcfies the best intentions of many parents. Yet nothing is more important in every household than to keep these sticks Of fire safely out of reach. The curiosity of the young upscts all bounds: it is an instinct that de- veiops the child mind. causes him to seize almost everything for the thrill of new experiences. The fire that bursts from . match when struck early forms an irresistible lure for children: and sometimes they not only burn their fingers but burn themselves to death.
 The experience of this child and the year of travail is a lesson to all others.

\ NlCARAGCAN CANAL

One of the professed reasons why the American government has been determined 10 range itself on the side of law and order in Nicaragua has been that disorder might lead to inconyenient discussions with other nations which. taking the Monroe Doctrine at it's basic value, expect Uncle Sam to make it unnecessary for them 10 risk infringing upon it. And another reason has been that the only other available route for . ship canal between the Atlantic and the Pacific lies through Mica agua. The right to utilize this route has been safely tucked away in the hands of Uncle Sam by treaty. Off, cials in Nicaragua, having had an opportunity to talk with Herbert Hoover. did not concentrate upon the scenery and climate long before mentioning the fact that the canal. in their estimation, should be built.
 There are many engineers who have held that the Nicaraguan route offered better penetration of the isthmus than the Panama route. Years ago it appeared a certainty that the Nicaraeuan route would see the construction of the first inter. ocean canal. But the politicians of Nicaragua, then even a worse lot than during recent years, were them- selves to blame for the construction of the canal through Panama.
 The original survey of the Nicara. suan plan dates from 1S49: and os its length of 1886 miles 7o.5l miles was to be through the San Juan river and Lake Nieara qua. Cornelius Vanderbilt became head oi a company securing a concession

In 1888. however. work was begun at Greytewn. but after spending sS.- 0oe.00e the construction company sought Sloo. 900. 900 from Congress. with arrangements for government supervision: the plan was refused. partly on the score that government ownership and operation would be better: work ceased. and the conces- sion lapsed. A Federal commission was appointed in 1897 to survey . route for . canal. and in 1903 the Panama route was adopted after Panama had seeded from Colum- bia. greatly pleasing President Roosevelt. who exclaimed. Bully. I did it," or words to that effect.
 Ratification Of . treaty between Nicaragua and Nicaragua in 1916. during the World War, revived hope for the construction of the Nicara- guan waterway. The American gov ernment paid $3.0OO,Oo0 for . 99 years lease of two islands in Fon- seca Bay. with the privilege of maintaining a naval base. At the same time Nicaragua also conceded to the United States the privilege of building canal over any desired route in Nicaragua. The reason for the treaty has been to prevent any foreign power from constructing the canal.
 Traffic through the Panama canal has exceeded all expectations. It may yet be, if no second canal is con- structed, that the Panama canal will be unable to meet the requirements of ocean travel. This will not occur for many years. however. and many citizens will think that the cost of constructing a second canal at this time will be . waste of money. A reasonable foresight of future trade requirements and military and naval considerations, perhaps. will acceler- ate the movement to construct the second canal. At any event, it will take many years before such | project can come to fruition.
