The closed shop is a monstresity which will never be tolerat@d'in America until this nation relinauithes alto@ether its attachment to those peculiar ideals which have made it the leader of the world. We worry three months about making out our income tax and then worry nine months about paying it. If we get out of life what we rit into it some will get out quick. If the same degree of progress in the reformationr of our political, re ligious, moral and educational lives had been made as has been made in our industrial life, America wou'ld have very much less to worry about. Sovietism Repugnant. It should be clearly understood that anything resembling the soviet-- ization of American industry is re-- pugnant to the American theory of democracy. Labor has the same op-- portunity to acquire representation in the control of a corporation as any other element in society has, and it should not expect a greater oppor-- tunity. It can acquire that represen-- tation in the control by acquiring through the purchase of stock partial owndérship of the enterprise. These are the days for in a few months.

Commissioner ,Keller says that three streets which it is aimed to pave this year are Belvidere, Grand avenue, and Glen Rock venue, these being principal highways lead-- ing into Waukegan. He says that during this year it is his plan to have most of the principal streets in the city paved and that within the next three years practically every street in the city will be paved. Trenches Delay Work The commissionér of streets says the original plan was --to put thru a pawing program in 1927 which would exceed $1,000,000, but be-- cause of the fact trenches in many streets where sewers have been laid are settling so slowly, it will most likely be necessary to delay some of the proposed paving for another year. He says further that sewer systems have not yet been con-- structed in some of the streets, which he had hoped to have paved this year. pP:vhg. nfvorwnd w;g:& yil m":'w T "at least ,500,000 ma even , it was anaguneet Befordny by to uen oneel Anaian io fom of the dep puniic aote € t eight miles of streets ""' will ;,: lfimnd.'g,m,qf which is es-- 0.

He says that of nec-- essity it will be possible to have Sand street but 20 feet in width. He says that it will be 'mpossible to assess all property which will be benefitted by the paving of Sand street, but that he is going to try and get industrial concerns and the railroad company, which will bene-- fit, to aid in meeting the expense. He says he will call a meeting at an early date for this purpose. CGusy la Sammer. Most of the paving in Waukegan will be done during the month of June, July and August, Commis-- sioner Keller reports.

Commissioner Keller said Saturday that the two new hotels which are to be built this year in Waukegan will eufféer because of inadequate sewer systems. He fears that un-- less the downtown sewer system is made deeper, buildings several stor-- ies in height which might be built if there was an adequate sewer sys-- tem downtown, may be lost to the city. . Commissioner (KeHer during his four years in office has been a strong advocate for paving, sewer and sidewalk improvements and the fact that the past four years has b:ok'e.n all records for improvements of this nature in Waukegan, is due in a large measure to the sugges-- tign_l_ and untiring work of the head The board voted 4 to 1 to defer this improvement for at least a year, Commissioner Keller voting against any delay. hopes that within a year the down-- town sewer system can be revamp-- ed and the depth materially in-- ereased. <It is recalled that at a public hearing held a few months ago in this connection, the project was abandoned for a year by the board of local improvements when strenuous objections were raised by _fl_n majority of property owners.
