Thursday, August 28, 19)0 THIRD AVENUE SIDEWALK Tuesday of this week there was a letter published in this paper signed by "One Interested" who made a protest against the closing of the sidewalk on Third Avenue by the city engineer under instructions from the city council. The closing was made necessary because the old sidewalk was unsafe and because the property owners facing on the street refused to pay for a new walk. The only possible methods open to the city in view of the refusal oi the ratepayers to sanction the work, was for the city to do the work and pay for it out of general revenue. As the city will not have enough money on hand to. pay for it out of general revenue, even if it were right and E roper to do so, the alternative would be to pass a general ylaw and ask the property owners to sanction the borrowing of the money for the purpose. It is doubtful if they ?ould do that as, if they do it for one street they must do n ior an. It looks then as if the people will have to walk on the street as they are doing now until the owners of the property decide to pay for the building of the sidewalk and petition for it. ,Jn reply to a criticism that the cost of the work done in diverting the walk was excessive, the engineer states that the total cost has not exceeded $60 and the lumber can be salvaged and used for other purposes, possibly for a similar purpose on some other streets. It is understood that several other sidewalks will be similarly m closed in the near future. PERIOD OF CHECKING UP This is a period of checking up. In some cities irregularities have been found in the accounts of both public and private concerns and a few people have been sent to jail as a punishment. The trouble arose chiefly from the period of speculation when men and women were taught to look lightly on the value of money and it seemed nothing to them to borrow from their employers without accounting for it. In many cases they saw their employers treating their clients in an irregular manner and learned the lesson of cheating from them. The period of accounting is a healthy thing for business. Those who have been careless will have to go out of business but those who have had in mind the coming of a depression period will get through the doldrums safely. Already it is hoped the worst has been passed and from this time we may look for a slight improvement. The general opinion throughout the country is that it cannot get worse and it may improve soon. EMPLOYMENT SITUATION Usually the thing we fear most does not injure. We have been earing unemployment and it may not be anything like as bad as we expected. In the past there have been many similar conditions but we did not have the statistics to worry us. We just took things as they came from day tc day and met the problems as they arose. Possibly it is a good thing to have the statistics before us but we must remember that they may not be correct. Circular letters were sent out to the mayors of the cities and reeves of the municipalities asking them to report on the needs for the coming winter. In order to be on the safe side many of these forecasts will have been much exaggerated. The unemployment will not be as bad as the forecasts indicate. We suggest that while it is quite desirable and necessary to look fonvard and take steps to meet the unemployment situation, there is nothing to worry about. Men will not be allowed to go hungry, or women and children to sUirvc We shall carry onjrtuch as usual.
