How About Mopping Up?
Cleanup day this spring will have more than the
usual importance. A glance about in the bleakness
after winter shows much to do in the town and coun
try around. Gradually tent and trailer house are
disappearing but in many cases the campers are
leaving much litter behind. Along roadsides is a
lot of rubbish that is displeasing to the eyes of per
manent citizens. Papers, cardboard boxes, tin cans
and trash have been spilled in many places, unavoid
able perhaps under the circumstances, but the com
munity as a whole has an interest in clearing streets,
lots and roadsides of this debris.
The city government and local organizations
should lead the movement in town and it is possible
that the county should look after the roadsides. At
any event, everyone should become cleanup con
scious. We can first look after our own backyards
and then complain to our neighbors, and then to
health, municipal and county authorities. Pride in
our community surroundings may have to be sup
ported by vigilance, work and even indignation, and
this is the month to think of the job.

More Houses! More Houses!
Eleven people called at the local real estate and
newspaper office Tuesday for houses to rent. The
average daily is five or six. These people are per
manent employes at the ordnance depot and want
more comfortable living quarters than tent houses,
trailer houses or camps. It is estimated that at least
50 two or three-room apartments or three or four-
room houses could be rented at reasonable prices.
The only thing in sight now is the beginning of
construction of five houses with assurance that the
builders may build as many as 20 on the lots recent-
ly purchased for additional homes. There is also
some reconstruction of small court houses and a few
apartments. Otherwise the growing demand for
houses in the near future is not likely to be met and
the increasing number of workers will have to be
satisfied during the summer with conditions similar
to those of last year.

Tax Payment Date Change Explained
The object of the new law as to payment of prop-
erty taxes is to change the date for payment to No-
vember instead of March when federal and state in
come taxes are due. This requires the payment of
1941 taxes due under the old law in 1942, as usual,
and a payment on 1942 taxes again in November.
This may work a temporary hardship on some peo
ple but in the end no greater amount of the sum to
tal. Because of the great increase of income tax
payers, the adjustment will piove advantageous to
the general tax-paying public.
