Brownsville herald. [volume] (Brownsville, Tex.) 1910-current, 1928-09-01

The city of Brownsville, after trying various ex-
periments. has adopted a plan that should be produce
tive Of results in connection with maintaining q clean
city. The announcement Of the city commission that
hereafter the city will be in charge Of the collection
Of refuse and garbage instead Of awarding that con-
tract 70 private individuals, indicates that the commits
SIGN is preparing to lay the foundation for a cleanup
movement that will be permanent.
Commissioner Hip, whose department will have
charge Of collection Of garbage and refuse, has an
nounced that rigid rules will be maintained; that all
drivers Of garbage trucks will be instructed TO report
failure Of any resident to comply with the city's reg
~ulations, and that all residents Of the city are request
ga 70 report failure Of the truck drivers to make col
lections promptly
Sporadic efforts have been made to inaugurate
cleanup movements in Brownsville, all OF which have
been more or less successful while the enthusiasm was
AZ its height; but interest would decline when the cit
liens, afser making strenuous efforts to clean up their
property, would see the refuse and garbage strewn
along the alleys or left in piles by careless collectors
Protests were Of little avail so far as securing results
we're concerned. This was especially true in the out
lying residential districts.
Under the plan adopted by the city commission,
property owners and others who desire 70 maintain
.heir premises in the most presentabie manner will
hereafter have the active cooperation Of the city.
Those who are not inclined to cooperate in this move
ment can and viii be forced to at least maintain their
premises in a decent manner II will be the duty OF
the drivers Of the collection trucks to report negl'-
gence; and as their jobs will depend upon their CO.
operation in keeping the city clean they Will have no
hesitancy in reporting.
II this connection the city commission should have
he aetive cooperation OF every resident Cleanliness
n Of vital Importance in any city but y especially
important in the semi-tropics where any relaxation OF
sanitary regulations may have disastrous results.
brownsville in the past decade has been transformer
from a typical border town into a modern CITY, Civic
pride has been developed to a high degree ana ~
- - 80 c;tv can be demonstrated in not more ef-
fsrs;va manner than in extending to the city commits
sion full cooperation in their effort to effect a clean
~ that will be permanent.

The Attack on the Valley Port

The Valley port project. like all worthwhile proJects
che valley has ever undertaken, is now being subjected
- q crossfire Of criticism, based largely on matters
wholly immaterial or irrelevant. From the beginning
If Valley history down to the present day no proJses
~ real value to the Valley as a whole has ever failed
- dr.w that barrare Of criticism, emanating from
selfish interests posing as friends Of she Valley
Residents Of the Valley should not permit the real
issue 70 be obscured by the barrage Of criticism OF
immaserial detail to which the port project - now pc
ing subjected. The issue Of water transportation ana
lower freight rates Is a live one, an issue upon which
the future development Of the Valley and the future
prosperity OF every Valley resident depends
The contention that one section Of the Valley viii
profit more than another is merely camoutlage; as Is
also the assertion that the Valley, now paying ex-
cesxjvelv high rates on all incoming and outgoing
freight, cannot afford to meet the requirements OF the
government and construct a port that will meet the
future needs Of this section.
Every device and a~rtifice that can possibly be
brought to bear to create prejudice against the port
project, the project upon which alley prosperity de-
ponds. is being paraded before the people, especially
ii eastern Hidalgo county. These consist mainly Of
appeals TO sectional jealousies; efforts to embroil the
communities. rank misrepresentation, ir urging upon
those who would be benefited TO the greatest extent
that the report Is designed 70 serve only selfish inter
ests and certain communities which are endeavoring to
place upon them the heavy burden Of the cost.
while the barrage OF criticism doubtless will have
its effect upon some residents Of the Valley, the bene-
fits which will accrue to the Valley as a whole by rea-
son Of q deep water port, are generally recognized
Valley people are not going to permit sectional jeal-
eusies or the earnings Of selfish interests to delay or
hinder the port project. The time will come, and in the
very near future, when il will be up to the Valley TO
make a definite decision. and that decision viii be in
favor Of deep water, lower rates and Valley progress.

WE WORK HORSEPOWER AND PAY III MAN
Dallas News).

At last it has dawned upon the investigators OF
Great Britain how it is we can pay higher wages in
this country and sell our products lower abroad. In
dustrialists in this country might be interested 10 re.
view the final findings, as in some quarters on this
side Of the water it is supposed that the tariff has
something to DO with it. Although there is some agi.
tation now for a tariff policy for Great Britain. Gov.
ering a wide range Of industries, the experts agree hat
the real reason for American wages is horsepower.
We use more horsepower in this country, but we
pay the man. Industry for industry, we use half again
- much horsepower per worker in this country as thc
British do in theirs. And with that so per cent extra
horsepower, the American workman turns out from
two and one-half times to three times as much produc.
ton as his British brother.
Since the American worker has learned TO make
more goods per day than the British machine tender
he is worth more. And he gets it, OF course, the
horsepower is part Of ii. 1t Is a most important factor
But the attitude Of the workman himself is an element
too. In Britain the worker is worried for fear there
won't be enough jobs. In this country the worker takes
a sort Of pleasure in batting it out" he likes to see
the output climb. He sets himself a par and tries ~
beat it.
In most Of our industries expansion has accom-
panied the adoption Of labor-saving machinery, So that
distress has not come to the employed. The notable
exception to this has been IN the farm industry, where
the world has not been able to increase its consumption
power to eat all that the modernized farms can turn
out. We can grow now. with fewer men, more wheat,
corn, oats, fruit and SO on than the world can possibly
eat. The American farm uses more horsepower-and
fewer horses. But the increased production Is in the
form Of SURPRISES. rather than In dollars.
But the British experts were interested in manu-
features. They didn't study the success Of the Ameri-
can farmer. Maybe they couldn't find il. taking the
farming business as a whole.

Recently three robbers attempted TO hold up a
branch Of an important bank IN a northern California
city. During the robbery one Of them shot and killed a
teller who did not obey orders with sufficient alacrity
20 satisfy the thug.
Fortunately the three were captured when the car
In which they were escaping crashed into a truck. And
the fact appeared that all Of them we're old offenders
with continuous records for felonies in Pacific coast
cities.
The record Of the killer embraced an eight-yeaT sen
tence for robbery, an escape from prison and identifi-
cation for Z previous bank holdup. he was also wanted
for robbery In Los Angeles.
The second member Of the trio had to his credit
conviction for assault with q deadly weapon, an arrest
As a bank robbery suspect, and an escape from authori-
ties while being taken to answer for the charge
The third thug, net TO be outdone, had demonstrated
his ability BY an arrest for attempted burglary, q SEN
tence on another burglary charge, an arrest for rob-
berry and another arrest.
Laws similar to the Baumes laws in New York would
mean life Imprisonment fer confirmed criminals Of this
type. upon fourth conviction for a felony. They could
not be turned loose. time after time, on a helpless pub
lie. Anti-pistol legislation, which would prohibit the
law-abiding citizen from owning q gun on the theory
that such measures would tend 10 prevent crime, would
in no way deter this type Of law-breakers from dealing
death end destruction while perpetrating thdr uniaw-
vi acts.
