In the first place, Mr. Editor, I am not onnosed to a munici rJally-owned transportation sys tem when the time and circumstances are favorable but I feel that such a large undertaking s-hould not be entered into without thorounh consideration of all facia aJidttiWhD public should be' given all possible Much lias been said of thel high profits being made by the) nresc'nt bus system. These' profits have been made only by , overcrowding of the uuses, op- crntion of one route only and i the fact that the manager has acted as driver and repair-man when necessary and all small CHIMNEY SWEEPING OIL BURNERS CLEANED AND REPAIRED New equipment and help assure you of a clean Job i Phone Black 735 HOME SERVICE HANDYMAN JOHN BULGER LTD.

This figure of Ten Thous fewer men can produce more and apparently Is not beln; and rnnspriupntlv. more men will I iivoil as n .a n hnsl nf valuation find less work. For these reasons our governments cannot find useful employment for the men. except In war.

POST OFFICE ummfn i inlTnlirrirtrir r - " The transportation committee of the City Council has seen fit to accept a figure of $12,503.00 (being government ccillng-prlce) as the actual value of the vehicles under consideration. In the appraiser's report it Is stated "the buses were examined on October 9 and found to be more or less In a run-down con dition chiefly due to the terrible bcatins: that they had received from the desperate conditions of the city streets." Tills would Indicate that the actual value of the bases is below celling price. Why. then, should the taxpayers be asked to pay an Inflation jirice for this equip ment? ' Also in Ihc same communica tion from' the City Engineer, narasraDh 8 'states, "the estab lishment or not of a" garage for repairs of municipal equipment to be considered in a separate report." To my certain know ledge such a report has neither been DreDared. submitted nor r. - - conslderea. In addition to the building for which the city now proposes to pay $1,000 for use as a muni 1 r'-f. Iff Total $18,200 The taxpayers are being asked to pay $20,000 for the above Items. I submit that $G,800 13 too great a figure for what may be termed "goodwill." In my opinion", the policy for our city administration to fol low is to build up and improve the city. Our present utilities arc so run down and exhausted that replacement Is the only remedy. Our streets, sidewalks, sewers, water system and telephone system should be con sidered under a long-range re placement program over a period of years and if we are to borrow money, It should be for the replacement of present utilities and not for a gamoie such as the proposed bus pur chase. Let us first P"t our house in order. Let us prove that we can maintain our presont utilities before we embark on unknown and perilous adventures. NORA E. ARNOLD, Alderman.
