A close observer of such things
puts it this way: "When you pass a
farm and see large barn and a
small house, you may know that
the man is boss; when you see fine
house and a dilapidated barn, you
may understand that the woman
has things her own way; and when
there is a new house and a good
barn, you may take it for granted
that the man and woman are equal
and work together in harmony"

wise some plan Of surmountng tho financial
difficulties which arc threatened by Mayor
Wansers veto Of certain items OF the tax

the items he suggested certain sums to be
substituted for them. The Board OF Finance
simply sustained the veto without adopting
tho Mayors suggestions. Tho result Is that
important appropriations are eliminated from
tho budget.
Nothing was accom- plished yesterday. The
two Republican members OF the Board offered
q resoluton that the amounts suggested BY
tho Mayor he inserted In the budget. The
three Democratic members laid the resolution
on the table. The Democrats then passed a
resolution inviting the Mayor to a conference.
and took recess until o'clock in tho after
noon.
President Edelstein called on the Mayor and
rendered him the invitation. Mayor Wanser
declined to take part in any conference. He
said he had given his views to the Board In
writing. and there was no necessity for any
conference. Tho Democratic members hold
another long conference. and then adjourned
