WATER IN JERUSALEM

The goat-skin water bags that have been used
in Palestine will not be so numerous in Jerusalem
in future and tourists will find one OF the interest
ing features of Palestine life missing. On January
7, a pipe line connected Jerusalem with reservoir
SO miles distant which is located near the coast
and $500 feet below the city.
The cost of the new waterworks is said to have
been 50 OOO, 900 but complete service will not be
given since it is said that water will be supplied
once every three days instead of once every seven
days under the old system. Readers of the dispatch
from Jerusalem may wonder why so much has been
spent on this water project without making Prov
sion for every day service, and whether the water
of the River Jordan could not have been mpound-
ed purified and pumped to the city with as little
expense.
The dispatch reminds that when the Chill
dren of Israel left Egypt in search OF the PROMISED
Land their scouts brought back reports of land
flowing with milk and honey, but little said OF
water, which must have been scarce in those re-
mote times as It is today Spartanburg Herald.

MILWAUKEE, AND NORTH CAROLINA

Only one murder has occurred in the city of Mil
waukee. Wis, up to now, in 1885.
Milwaukee is a city of approximately 65O,Oo9
population. .-...

during the past II months involved the death Oh

set it afire. .r ID. "..'
UNIQUE is the word that fits the distinction claim
ed bv. Milwaukee among American cities Many
towns much smaller, including Wnston-Saem, re-
port more murders than the Wisconsin metropolis
There must be reason for this extraordinary
record That reason is bound up partly in good law
enforcement Milwaukee has police setup that Is
remarkably free from political interference or con-
troll But this is not all.
No law enforcement body can function with q
maximum of efficiency unless it as vigorously
hacked I'D by public sentiment. Undoubtedly the
citizens of this great city, which is almost muraer
free have a higher regard for human lie ana
deeper respect for law and order than is prevalent
in many communities.
This conclusion is reached because Milwaukee
doesn't happen by mere chance to turn IN COCOA

ord in relation to crime has been such as to attract
ra+ion- wide attention.-Winston-Sale Journal.

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
CONDITION OF PUBLIC ROADS

The State Highway department does not know
when the secondary roads of North Carolina have
been in such foul shape as now.
CITY people will not catch the gist of such a
statement.
Their travel is largely segregated upon the az
terial lanes that are hard-surfaced.
Occasionally. they may be called off into some
road that has been sand-cayed but rarely will they
travel a rural road that in some form other has
not been improved.
Residents of the ruralside whose travels are
mainly upon these secondary and tertiary roads
will agree at once that the opinion of the highway
commission is borne out by the facts. Neither can
they easily recall when such an lntoerable status
of mud and slush has prevailed.
In some counties of the State it has been nee
essary to close the schools. Roads travelled by
school buses are impossible
This, of course, is sorry situation. To some ex-
tent unpreventable, but to some extent aso' more
preventable than might be surmlsed
The recent heavy followed by excessive
rains combined to put pressure upon these un-
paved roads they were unable to stand up under
That's the whole story.
The highway commission has no mandate over
weather But it does have the authority to improve
roads, and from the appearance VI 10 'hS0'o"h -
it. also, has no end of money.
DR.. Mcdonald, candidate for Governor, Is max
ing the claim that there is surplus OF Sl4OOo,Oo9
in the highway department The Observer has not
seen the figures but if DR.. Mcdonald is reading the
statistics correctly it is obvious that the State a
thorities have had funds in their possession some
of which could well have been used in repair and
maintenance, if not in giving these more lmpOrS-
ant secondary roads some attention
The practice of sand-claying these highways
seems to have been totally abandoned. Perhaps, II
such a manifesto has been issued, it Is wise. A
matter of this kind must be left to technical Judg-
ment and engineering skill. The laity is not sup
posed to know whether, as a policy, State should
or should not spend the money of its taxpayers
building roads of such tentativeness as sandclay
preparations
p But for several years not only has this consTuc-
ton been abandoned but there has been mini
mum of maintenance and attention given these
roads which are so widely used by the rural popu-
lation of the State.
Of course, the damage of recent adverse weati-
err has now been done and there is no way imme-
dately to go out and repair it. but if the highway
department has anything like the available FUNDS
alleged by Dr. Mcdonald, with the breaking OF the
weather a great deal of it might very wisely be
used in preparing the roads the better to With
stand another Furnishing attack like that OF recenS
rains and snows.-Charlotte Observer.

simply stated 1t is the necessity OF hnalns
