York legislature putting the cities Of
New York, Brooklyn, and half a dozen
other cities under the same municipal
government. The bill has been signed
by the governor, and now goes to the
MAYORS OF the cities affected for their
consideration, who have the power OF
veto. The veto Of one mayor will kill
the measure, unless passed again by
the legislature. The bill is known as
the "Greater New York BILL" and, If
Il becomes law, New York will be
next 20 the largest city in the world.
