At a public meeting last Friday night the .reater Wilmette, Associatipn threw down the gauntlet and started a fracas on the apartment building question. Qulte refreshingly frank was the chairman, John H. Davies (a bulider), In bis replies te questions as to the- lutent and purpose. of the peti- tien(t bili'was presented te the Village Board on Tuesday evening).' 'Ite. grant- ing,' he said, 'would b. followedi by a request for a repeal of the present building code aud the adoption of a lesas sringexlt one te permit the building of upart- m-enta <on a, profitable basis.' Asked what would happen, when the' »ropertles ëoveredinl the petition were al bullt up wltf apartuients, he replici that 'adjoin- lng blocks would bel rezoned for the same purpose.'

Aunouncemente of March 27j this Item: IlAny improvemont In the village like the opeuing ýor- wideuing cf a Street or widenng cf. a Street pavement, or Installation of auy underground Improvement muet originate lu thé Board of Local Ijnprovemente. "This Board, muet hold a duly advertised. public hearing at, wich both the proponents and opponents o! the contemplated improvement have the right -te be beard. Should'the Board o!, Local Irmprovemnente thon decide that the Improve- ment ls ueCessary, tbey pase a proper resolution and transmit It to the ]President and Board of Trusitees for their apvrova.l or disa.»proval; befoeoà.ny firther stops ean be taken. the Preeldent and Board cf Trustees muet pass an ordiuance in whlch le incorporated the findings of the Board of Local Improvements.

Sai Mr. Dubbs: "T11hat le ciaimed -te beý the AB C'a cf- village, affaire. That may le the A B C'e cf a lawyer, but It le Dlot the A B C'a of a business administration." Wbat Mr. Dubbs evidently POE& NOIT KNOW 'le that the procedure outliued ini the item quoted le simply that of the state Iaw as contained ln the cities and' Villages set. But why sbould a little thiug like a state law bother Mr. Dubbs? Espocially if it stands ln the way cf a "business administration?" Seems too bad, but it looks as though Mr. Dubbs, "If" eiected, wiil be compelîci to follow that precedure or eall up the legislature long distance sud havre the statute repealci.' One la forced te the conclusion that Mr. Dubbs le woefuliy lacking in knowledge of goverument andd its prevesees.
