AMBLER FACES PROBLEM  IN THE SEWER   PROPOSITION
Councilman   Allen   Urges   Caro   as     to Expenditures—Probably   Com pre lien- sIve   Study   of   Sewer   Question   and Preliminary Work Can Be Done. There    ts    every    reason    to    lielievo' , that   Chairman   Harvey   li.   .Allen,   of ' the  finance corrtmilt'oe  of council,   sees breakers  ahead,   which  no  doulit  was Ills reason for re<iuestiiig the memiiers to proceed carefull.v with exi>enMitures. Mr.   Allen  especially   urged  tho  hlgh- Avay  conunitti-e  to  cut  diown,   and  le- ' commended that the highway force be reduced.
Air.  Allen  was  fully justilied  in   his warning and  rocomnu ndatlon,   because of   the   pifsciit   coiiilitlufi   of   the  bor- j ougli    treasury.       For   tho   i>ast   few : months,   in   order   to   pay   current   ex- pense« considerable money has h.ad to ' be  l>oia-owed,   although   it   is  s.aid   that | a portion of this borrowe*! mone.y will 1 be  p-ald   back  .as  soon as  the  borough : receives    the    amount    due   from    the county   in   tho   construction   of   Hen¬ dricks   street,   between   Forest   .avenue and   Tennis   .avenue.       It   is   probable that  this  money  will  lie  paid  over at an   early   date,   as   the  street   is   nK>w completed.   However,   tho   .amKJunt   re- i ceived will not l>e sufllcient to liquid¬ ate  the  entire  amount.  Therefore,  the ' warning by the rh.airinan of tho finance : committee   was   timely. i
The cost of the constriietion of H'en'- dricks street .and tho bridge thereon .should he published, ns the taxpayers ^vIll find it interesting rea<Iing. There ' Is no question but that tlie cost of fhe -work on Hendricks street w.as greater than would have been thei case had no con(slder.ation heen given to tho un:^mplo>'Tnent situation, as quite a nti'mhor of tho unemployed of Ambler, AVest Ambler and a portion of I'pper TUiblln township found work on   this  stroet,   for  several   months.
No other now streets, according fn wh.nt ran' be learned from borough authorities, will he ennsidered for .snmp time, Tho members of ciiuneil •woulrl do well to remember that the nuestlnn of sewers is boin.g agitated from time to time by some of the t.ax- ,' p.ayers,  who  appear to  be  justified.        '
From several sections of the borough comes   the  information   of   overflowing CPsspoo's that   cainae much   annoyance. Because  of the many  c.ompMnts     fhe hoard   of  he.alth   is  able to  cope with the   situation   only   by    orderin',g     the cleaning   of   tho   pools.   One   t.axpayer sajd   be   followed   this   suggestion   and : ns a   result ho h.as  spent quite  a con- ' aiderable   sum   of   money   in   an   effort to keep his pool from becoming a nui- !«anco. - ATi'Tither   t.axpayer   Is   said   to > have  put  in  a   "French  dr.ain."   How- ! over,   this   does   not  remedy  the   con- | ditinn.   Sf^me   of  the t.ax|>a.yers     have I nlso   put   in   ceptic   tanks   .and   two   or three   ces^lifds   and   yet   are  nn.able  to entirely romedy the condition', and .are therefore   obliged   fo   go   to   extra   ex¬ pense in bnvin.g the pools cleaned from flnie  to tlmo.
Some of our taxpavers .^^re oiipn«n.l tjO running the borough into more debt , b\- the huildin-r of sewers, and allegn that there is not need to go Into this proposition for a number of year.s. 'Phis stand apnears correct, bi^auise of the present financial condition, what nhout the future should an ep'domlc ef sickness break nut resulting direct¬ ly from the unsan'lt.aiv condition sur- ronndln" cesspools, the seepage into ITowo A'alley creek and also into tho creek that runs through the section, of Bciff's ATill road. Tennis aventie and North   Alain  street.
South Amb'er Is also a section where there Is eviden'ce of uri'^anit.ary con- jdit'ons duo to lack of drainage, i Th'O exix>nse of sewer construction appears to have fricrhtened almost ev- i ery one of our oqicials as well .as the taxpayers, Init who knows just wliat the expeoise will he'! AVho has gone f,ar en-ough into the riuestion to ascer¬ tain the cost. Some have made coniec- tiircs of from $1110 001 to $200,000. AVith a lit.-e a.mount saddled on the property owner. Therefore, it would anpear thnt some on-e in authnritv should .ajiprnxl- mate the co-^t. ci niparing s.ii"<^ with tho Installation of s"wers in the fol¬ lowing ibornut-'bs: Hatboro, whi'di I.s ; now addbig an extra unit to its p'ant; North AA'nles, Lansdale and Souderton. .A great deal of the preHmlnar\' work on the sew-^r eenid ],,. done, bi(rdiid''n..r a survey and the piirehnoe nf around for the dlsnnsal idanf.

' on  the  new  prison  at Graterford,  this
I county.
i "Ciraterford still is the most modern prison in the country," Captain ILt- bert Smith, warden of the I'hiladeliihia iiistilulion  said  recently.
"For construction ot the inside pri¬ son and for the classirie.alion of pri- soucrs no penal institution can equal it. 'Phvi'e was c(nisidei'.al«le talk of transferring all prisoners from the city fo Craterford, but that will nol bo ac¬ complished  for  several  years.
"(iraterford was to have been' in eight  .separate  units.   The <;overn.nTent
; has cut tlie i>lau to a five-block prison..
; Due   to   ecoruHnic   pressure   wo      ar«
. working at the lowest possiWe mini¬ mum. AVe have 300 prisoners woi-king on construction, whereas we exix'cted to put  to Avork from  500  to  COO  men.
"Tho worst featiu'e of prisons is idlen'ess. At Graterford SOO are at work either on the farm or on building, of these 150 are unguarded. AVith tha exceptlou of one escape when the place first wa.s opened, we hiivo ne\'er had any trouble. The ])rison popu.latioii at C.raterford is i;?2.">, and at Clicrry Hill,
iono.
"Both prisons have been free from tho riots that tronbl'ed m.an"y ixuial institutions throug'hout the eoiiiitxv two years ago. In fact, there never has been a riot since I came to tho Kas- tern   Penitentiary   in   1023.
"It's easy to .get in prison, but hard to get out. We h.ave between fifty and sixty men! who have served terms of ten years .and has who e.an't be re¬ leased until jobs are found for them. AVe can't take the chance of turning these men out wtithoiit money or pros¬ pects, but the job offered must he pi^-- manent. There are no more bittierl.v illsappointcd   men'  than   these   fellows.
' Kvcnfually they will he placed, but It will   take   time,   Afeanwhile   they   aro
