That Borglum alarm is more cus than a burglar alarm. rau- Remember dally that there is some thing you can do to help the boys Over There. The Hun hosts , are slackers. They have slacked up on that drive because they had to. The kaiser's full-dress visits to the battle front have dwindled down to mere visitations. The 'sfatesville Landmark, wlilch en gaged in a lively scrimmage 'with the Bell Telephone Company once upon a time 'and helped to tie a can to that husky corporation to the extent that an Independent phone company was organized there, and . Is still there, notes with only 'languid interest" that the Bell is asking for Increased rates In certain towns. 1 The matter is but of languid Interest to Statesville people, where, when the Bell . sougrht to in crease, rates and was blocked "by the independent company, good service is enjoyed 'at very reasonable rentals. Statesville isn't interested a little bit in the proposed' Increases. However, the 'Landmark goes on to say the Bell may have real ground for- the In creased rates asked, on account of conditions universally recognized now as hard on all corporation. The '"sub ject was taken up by the Statesville paper, 'to call attention to one fact that might interest some - of' the peo ple In some of the towns . where the increase is proposed." The Landmark went on to say: "The Bell has an exchange in States ville. While it does very little local business, its rates are very low $2 for business and SI for residence phones. This is lower than the rate charged by the independent 'phone company of Statesville, which ohargea 5 3.50 for business' phones. ' The Bell Company makes these low rates in Statesville only because it has competition. It hoped to drive the Independent com pany out of business In that way, but has failed. If there was no indepen dent company here Bell rates, to judge by towns of similar sise, would be 13.50 to $4 for business 'phones. The Bell not only offers low local rates , at competitive points but gives free country service to such points ,ln some cases, et least. In Rowan coun ty Bell subscribers must pay or that was the rule .unless recently changed to 'phone into Salisbury. The same subscriber, living nearer to Salisbury than Statesville, can 'nhone int Statesville without cost. All because of competition. ' "It might interest some of the Bell patrons, where an increased rate is proposed, to Inquire why the Bell maintains such e. low .rate in States ville and gives free country line serv ice, while it Is asking for higher rates at other points. Is it the purpose to make subscribers at non-competitive points .pay ror loses sustained at competitive points?" The last point is one of interest to Wilmington.- How much of the in crease aslced of certain communities is needed to cover up losses sustained in other communities? Is the Wilming ton property productive of dividends as rates stand now? We submit that it is a fair proposition, If the Wil mington exchange is now making- a profit. Wilmington should not be call ed upon for increased rates, and Wil mington ought to find out the facts before it submits to any increase; and if an increase is found to be fair, and there is room for any Improvement In in service, there should be demand for the improvement.

"One of the paramount reasons why me mercnants 01 isevr Bern are so suc cessful is the fact that they, or at least me majority or them, are constant and consistent advertisers and are disciples of the gospel of using, prin ers-. ink. in this day and time the public is reading the daily newspaners more than - ever before and, naturally, the merchant who advertises ' his wares is tne one who will get the. bus mess. The local trades people now have and always do have the most complete stocks of goods which they sen at reasonaoie prices. In advertis ing- these they give -no inflated values and give, every man his money's worth. The public has confidence in this ad vertising and . that it gets results is very evident. " New Bern is to be congratulated up on having such .wide-awake business men. They are Teaching out for them selves and New Bern, for in the aggre gate they make New Bern. They know when ' more people than ever read the newspapers and are surer than ever to read advertisements worth reading, Every newspaper in North Carolina is new read by more of the people than ever before. Of couse, that's JJie reason those live New Bern merchants are seizing the present extraordinary ;opportunity to attract attention; to their business in order to get the "increased amount of business that is , to be had at this time.

GOVERNMENT HOUSING PLAN. Will Assist Contdnnnitles In Building for ShJpworkers. ' - (Charlotte Observer.) It is to be suposed that Wilmington will take advantage of the govern ment's co-operation in planning for the housing of the shipbuilders. The Ob server , has noted the measures by which financial aid is provided, and in the April number of Architecture, published by Scribners. Mr. Otto. M. Eidlitz, who is director of housing in the department of labor, gives a story of th.e general planof the de partment. . In the first place, the government's idea is to utilize every possible exist ing agency for the work, with the gov eminent as directing manager and ad vancing a larger part of the funds The problem really divides itself into inree parts: xne community proo- lem, the isolated , plant. The plan adopted to meet the community prob lem, which has already been approved by many of the comunities interested contemplates furnishing to the com munity 80 per cent of the funds nee essary for the work. The communities would organize co operative limited-profit companies, which would advance the other 20 per cent. The government must, of course. see to it that the dividend in these housing companies is -strictly limited. in order to attract workers by enabling them to occupy the . houses at a rea sonable rental, or if they wish, to ac quire them outright, at a reasonable prioe. In consideration of the low rale of Interest on the government loan the dividend could and should be cut to the lowest possible margin. The govern ment's security for the loan, under the proposed plan, would be a blanket mortgage covering the whole . of the transaction. The government's money would be loaned to , the communities on easy terms for a fifteen-year period, with a proper amortization scheme, provid ing for its complete repayment at the end of the fifteen-year period.' In other words, the. actual work of construc tion would be placed on the commw itiea, while the government would, to some extent, control the plans, seeing that they conform to Its needs. In the case of the Isolated plant, where the workers in that-plant form ed the principal portion of the popu latlon of the little town, hamlet, or whatever it may , be, the Individual or people interested would furnish the land and give a blanket mortgage to the government for the balance of the loan. In the government-owned plants as at Wilmington, operated under agen cy contracts, in view of the fact that a realization that he has given wisely and" well. So . shall Greensboro' have the satisfaction 01 expressing to the donor -'Its appreciation of his benefi cience. ' And, so shall he be permitted to witness. the entrance of the people upon this land he has given them, and their enjoyment of it for -many years to cpme, we all trust. Greensboro News. Figures compiled by Commissl6ner of Public Works R. F. Beasley show that'North Carolina has to some rea son or reasons been cither getting better or less open in Its devilment. The population of our prisons decreas ed during 1917, as compared. with a five-year average, by 407 persons. This decrease cannot be - accounted . for by the pardoning process, either, although Governor Blckett restored an unusual ly large number of men to citizenship and companionship of their, fellows during the first year of his term. Chain gangs, incomplete figures at a given date for five years ending 1916 show ing an average population of 1,590, had a population of only 1,230 at the end of 1917, the hgures for last year being: complete. Pardons for chain gang prisoners are of infrequent . oc currence, too. In the penitentiary the five-year average, as obtained from a yearly . census on November 30, was 870 persons. On November 30. 1917, there were only 823. Whatever the cause, for. this decrease in criminal population and we believe it due to a decrease in crime jrather than an in crease in the Inefficiency of courts It is- not because prisoners like their prisons less than they used to. Prison life in North Carolina has improved wonderfully since the general assem bly, last. met. The-... state is rapidly growing better. We are probably up toward the head of. the list -of the states Of the Union as regards homi cides; ' but we . are rather . short sn crimes that require persistent plan ning. Labor, agents in luring off . a considerable part of our roving inhab itants have probatly aided in the re duction of crime In North Carolina. Congress, throuf h the bone dry law, has also. helped. We are inclined to think, however, that the general pros perity of the section has done more than anything else to retard the com mission of small offenses. Had we the figures, we are confident that we could ehow that , larceny : is not so prevalent as when jobs and money it- were scarcer.
