EASTWOOD PLANS
MORE IMPROVEMENTS

For general fund departments,
the unofficial total for 1910 now
looks like S1,555.276.20 as COM
pared with s1.25s.315 for 1s39s
final budget. The increase of $685.
961 rests mostly in Safety Com
missioner Eastwood's hopes for ex-
tensive improvements in his police
and fire departments.
Eastwood's budget shows a
20s,s27.7e increase over what
actually was set up for 1889. Po-
lice and fire departments are oper-
ating under long standing pension
systems and none of the increase,
except $3.50. can be attributed to
the new general pension system
proposed.

A NATION OF BEGGARS

There is every indication that the recent economy
drive in congress made of the stuff of which
all economy drives in years have been made-baly
hoo and buck passing
This is paradoxical situation On the surface,
corded by polls and speeches. the public is all
for economy But public office holders quick to accept
the views of public opinion extremely reluctant to do
than talk about it. They know that demands for
economy only skin deep far the public is
cerned Their constituents back home polls and speeches
Notwithstanding, still demand 'free money" for this
that worthy civic project" Economy is all right
they say effect long the fellow in the next state
or the next county bears the brunt of it.
The next time you tempted to the politicians
in Washington for not pulling the drawsrngs the public
purse just remember this The average public official
won't buck public opinion. Therefore, until the public
honestly demands economy and all of ready to grin
and bear the resultant PINCH the country will
have economy.
Civic organizations local politicians and business
who advocate economy hand and on the
other beg like paupes from their representatives in the
nations capital. shameful to the welfare
of the country.
