U 7:44 . 4 3G Dec. 14 ........ 7;4B 4:36 Letters From The People Editor Herald: It I absolutely refreshing to note that one member of our city govern nient la taking an Intereat In tho condition ot ho sidewalks over our town. The action of Councilman . O Smith In making a survey of the dangerous spots, and hla Intent to sco that they arc repaired, ahould be applauded by every thoughtful citi zen. Asldo from the phsleal danger to every man, woman and child that haa to walk our streets Is the added pos sibility ot heavy damage suits tor broken, limbs, or perhaps lois of life "What Is everybody's business. Is nobody's business" Is certainly appli cable to the system that prevails In the care ot our streets, and while the plea of "No funds" Is always made as n reason why no work Is done upon them, U would seem that there is surely enough to take care of e- rentlal things. Take a walk up the raved street Ninth or Tenth, and )ou will ob servo tbe gutters absolutely (ull of mud, in many places. At the Intersec tion of Ninth and Lincoln streets the mud is over tho top of tbe curbing and averages about six Inches deep across tho entire street. This dirt bas been there ever since the storms of last winter. (Ninth and Jefferson is almost as bad.) AVhen rains come, and snows melt, the water stands at this corner so deep that' rubber boots are necessary if one cares to make tbe crossing. Gutters In the paved sections all over town, excepting Main and Klam ath Avenue, are In the same condi tion full of dirt and filth. It is to be hoped that our city fathers will remedy these conditions before It freexes up (or the winter. CITIZKN HELIUM GAS FOR BALLOONS URGED BY NAVY LEADER FOIIT WORTH, Tex., Dec. 13. Hope that congress will see the pos sibilities of hellum-non explosive bal loon gas not as a war time measure, but for purposes of peace, was ex pressed by Commander Allen G. Ol son, In charge of the helium plan. operated near Fort Worth by the United States navy. Tbe limitation of armament program should not influ ence helium production, be said, be cause of Its peace time possibilities The plarjt Here, which Is one of two In the United States, was shut down at midnight November 30, pending further appropriation by congress to maintain it. The other plant, located at Petrolla, Texas, haa been closed since July 1, 1921, the end o( tho last (Iscal year. Influence Asked Representatives In congress have been asked to old In Influencing that body ,to Increase tbe appropriation (or maintaining tho Fort Worth plant. Commander Olson expects the plant to be shut down only for a short time, he said, until congress can make suitable provision after it convenes December 5. Several hun dred thousand dollars will be neces sary (or the operation ot the plant on full time basis, he said. Established In 1918, the helium plant bore has beeq engaged chiefly In experimental work whllo produc ing thegas. While tho cost of ex tracting the helium from tho natural ga of the petroleum fields of Texas has been expensive, Commander Ol son said, the Fort Worth plant grad 'U)ly ha been powering the cost ol production.
