Pigeon Key Fishing Camp. The
lease as printed contained both
a lump sum and percentage set
up, contrary to allegations made.
1t appeared good sense" to pre-
pare the leasers in advance, which
is the main point of contention
brought out by Mr.. Marks.
The subject of why no answer
was made to the charges appear
ing in Mr.. Marks articles was
loked into. It developed that,
according to good procedure, only
one person had been authorized
to release publicity concerning
the affairs of the District. That
person is the chairman of the
Board, Mr.. John r. Slade. If a
statement was to be released, it
could have been written by any
person and submitted to the
Board along regular lines. The
chairman and general manager
have not had an opportunity to
release an answer in that the
Board has not met since the dates
of release of Mr. Marks articles,
at which time such an article
would be considered.

ing meeting, and signed at that
time. If there were misstate-
ments in the minutes, it seemed
that Their would have been chang
es before the signatures were
affixed.
The secretaries files showed
that a transcript of the minutes
are made up by that person Or.
B. Alexander) and sent to the
Board attorney before they are
typed into the minutes book. The
attorney, it appears, is the final
person to OK. the proceedings.
On one occasion, the April 8,
1888, meeting, considerable of
the secretaries draft was left out
of the minutes, and, apparently
that procedure was ok" by the
Board members as the minutes
were signed. This omission. was
in regard to. the settlement of the
S. ]. Groves Company claim, and
as the omitted portion was read
over, it appeared that much of
the matter was entirely unneces-
sary for transmission into the
regular minutes.
Now, as to the budget for the
coming year 1t is true, accord
mig to record, that Mayor Willard
Albury is chairman of the budget
committee of the Board. Minutes
of the August 18th meeting failed
to show, however, that the COM
missioner turned in a full budget,
according to regulation satisfy
ing himself with a presentation
of certain amendments to the
budget. As matter of fact. no
actual budget was presented. The
General Manager had drawn up
what was labeled Estimate OF
Expenses for next fiscal year.
and from that rough, pencil state
ment, the temporary budget was
drawn and sent to the RIG for
approval.
The minutes of the August 18th
meeting showed that due consid-
Grafton of the eight amendments
presented by commissioner AL
bury was made by the Board.
Some of the items were agreed
upon-others not.
AS to the raise in tolls-so
much has been carried in. the
press concerning that move that
this article need not dwell on that
angle of the controversy. 1t APP
pears certain that action will be
taken shortly to rescind the toll
raise.
In regard to the report handed
to the commissioners just prior to
the August 18th meeting, as COM
piled by F. E. Harrison. Jr., it is
unfortunate that more time was
not available to study the findings
as contained therein. No one, in
Guiding the General Manager, it
appears, had had sufficient time
to study the report properly be-
fore the meeting at which the toll
raise was ordered.

financial set-up, made by perusal
of the files, disproved that state
ment that deficit is in sight
next year" when the time comes
to make principal and interest
payments.
First-the District will end the
fiscal year this weekend with a
surplus in the bank of sec, 900 and
not $4,000 as stated. The tolls
will bring in $235,000 next year
on basis of same performance as
last. That's total of 1926, 900.
On the debit side of the ledger
are three figures-$144,000 and
$40, 900 for principal and interest
due September /, 1910, and $780,
600 for operating next year. This
is a total of $274,000. A credit
balance of $2l,0 900 is indicated
from these figures.
Some commissioners are of the
belief that $4,000 sum must be
set aside next year for Storm
Emergency purposes. 1t was
found that no such necessity ex-
ists-rather, that funds as they
accumulate in excess of principal
and interest payments and OPP
Grating expenses, are to go into
such fund.
However, even if $4,000 is to
be allocated to such a fund, bring
ing the total up to 1929, 900 on the
debit side of the ledger, then
these additional facts for the cred
it side should be taken into con-
sideration:
The PWA, following an exhaus-
tive study of future trends in re-
gard to toll charges and amount
of traffic, first considered that
the $1.00 rate for tolls was the
ideal rate to charge; second, that,
in accord with all data on the
subject, a ten percent (1096) in
crease in traffic each year would
be normal. From that, $4,000
can be added to the figures of
| $295,000 Further, if the District
is to spend $4,000 for advertis-
ing, it is entirely fair to consider
that at least that amount will
come back to the Golfers of the
District, il not more. A total of
$685. 900, plus $4,000, plus $12,-
600 is $330,000. A credit of $751;
600 after all charges of Septem-

War Seems Near

the nations OF Europe are making
extreme preparations for war.
War Seems Near
Two and a half million men
are now under arms in Germany,
and huge concentration OF
troops along the Polish border
| is reported. France has clamped
down the lid of strict censorship
and new "calls to arms are be-
ing issued hourly.
Polish newspapers, for the first
time, carry stories stating that
war is near. Poland, however,
remains comparatively calm dur
ing the tense period of waiting,
the while various clashes of Ger
man and Polish troops are re-
ported along her borderline.
Tonight Is The Night"
Expert opinion throughout Eu-
rope proclaims that something
must give it is generally
conceded that tonight will be
the night" when the destiny of
Europe and the world will be set
tied.
Decentralization of population
in cities, both in England and
France, goes on apace. Paris is
practically evacuated of all wom-
en-, children and old people and
air defense arrangements are re-
ported to be complete. The same
situation holds for London, al
though more moving of the popu-
lation to country locations is go
ing on.
Germany On War Time Basis
American citizens in England
and France have been ordered to
report to seaside ports by the
various consulates. This step is
| taken in order that immediate
embarkation on vessels for the
return to the United States can
begin when, and if hostilities
break out.

on a wartime rations basis to-
day amidst grumbling of the

PEOPLES FORUM
ABOUT HORN BLOWING
Editor, The Citizen:

Editor, The Citizen:
Having just read Guy Garlic
toms letter in The Citizen about
the apparent low estate of old
car drivers who blow their horns
too freely, / must say that his
undemocratic TRADE strikes at an
essential tenet of our American
freedom of expression. He, also,
libels the old car driver when he
disparages his estate and men
tally. Many instances of
learned and important individuals
driving old cars can be cited, to
prove the position that the in
telligence of this class averages
fairly with that of new car own
ers. There is reason to question
the judgment, skill and careful
ness of a man who has to buy a
new car every year. He is usually
a fast and thoughtless driver who
wears down his car in second
speed racing and taking corners
short, quick stops and infrequent
greasing and oil replenishing.
Such man may have excuses
but he can not rank with the
man who drives slowly and with
a loving regard for his motor and
who may be forced to use his
horn in self-preservation when
some new car weaves in front to
quick stop or turn. The old
car driver knows his car from
years of experience, has few &C?
cidents where he is at fault and
is rarely a fast driver because
few old cars can maintain a speed
of fifty, which is SLOW for
modern cars.
Mr.. Car1eton's contemptuous
reference to the sim lizzie" re-
vealS him to be of the newer
school of car owners who have
known the joy and sweet sorrow
of ministering to the noble Model
T. She is no such death-dealing
weapon as her modern, high
speed, horn shrieking sisters.
And she could always be stopped,
without the use of either hand or
foot break, a feat Mr.. Carleton
can not perform with his 1910
model!
This driver is no advocate of
horn blowing in the exact sense
of the phrase, but his heart and
hand 60 out to the cheerful,
courageous minority of old car
drivers, seasoned men and sea-
soned cars; men who hold their
heads high and maintain their
right to a place on the road lin
cars long paid for in fulD. May
they resist, to the last, the crowd
ings of men like Mr.. Carleton.

Editor, The Citizen:
If they raise the toll on the

and the removal of army and

and the death of the sponge bust
ness.

in charge of the Overseas High
