Data compiled by R. G. Dun & Co. show a total of 931 such failures, involving $908,157,788, and these figures 'make a striking contrast with the total of 437, f 6r $218,-7965S2f reported for 1929. Thus, the number of banking failures in 1930 was considerably more than twice that for the immediately preceding year, while the indebtedness was well over four times jarger. UNHEALTHY FRAME OF MIND Some of the men who are out "of work, both here and in other cities, are imbued with the idea that the present social structure is likely to break up at any moment and that it would therefore be foolish to worry about getting a job or trying to find a niche where he will fit in perman-ently-in the present scheme of things. Propagandists are continually emphasizing the possibility of a cna&ae amy day. Xwy point to dozens of signs to show that a break-op u taking place. White it is a fact that Russia has had a Bolshevist revolution brought about by perfectly natural and logical causes; that Italy has had a Facist reolution which checked the growing socialism in that country and that Aus-v tria and several other countries have had practical dictatorships there is nothing to indicate that realtor demo- cratic countries are seriously affecjfld. Bohesrii has run its gamut and democracies are Doing as sanely administered as ever. The writer remembers hearing addresses over thirty years ago in which it was claimed that within two or three years the end of the present system would have arrived. Audienwa of miners were much worked up over it and thought it was going to be so. Yet the old world revolved about as usual and no change came. Human nature changes slowly. To get the idea that a time is coming when men will not have to work for a living is an unhealthy state of mind. They have to work in Russia and are hot paid much for their labor. Beggars are more numerous there than ever before, yet that country is advancing toward abettexcon-dition. We look upon the Russian Revolution as 6nmhe greatest steps forward that has been made in thiswprld, not because it brought about the dictatorship of tjjepfo-letariat" but, because it was a gesture in the direction of a mors ireasonable and just condition of affairs throughout the world.

Presentations from football and other sporting circles TAXPAYERS HAVE MEETING Former City Engineer H. A. McLean, who was present at the meeting, was asked If he desired to make iny statement with regard to the alleged expenditure of $85,000 on the Section Five trunk sewer under a bylaw which authorized only $35,000. Mr. McLean, in a rather detailed reply, suggested that charges had been made against this sewer which might not have been rightfully saddled upon It. Digging of new ditches and repairing of new ones had been charged against It, also grading roads and sidewalks. There had also been considerable relief work on sewer construction. Henry Smith asked Mr. McLean if It were not true that the expenditure had . in up to $54,000 before he (Mr. McLean) left office as city engineer. He (Mr. Smith) thought Mr. McLean and Jack McRae had been largely responsible for the over-expenditure. Mr. McLean replied, that he had acted only on the orders of the city council. At the suggestion of Mr. Hart, this matter of sewer over-expenditure was referred to the executive to be settled "quietly and decently." A complaint by Mr. Hart that "thousands of dollars were being wasted" by the city In throwing away old planks as well as the si-' tuation In closing sidewalks In the downtown section were referred to Aid.
