eenting the Actors Fund
Within the last few days new accounts
have been opened at several Of the COM
mercial banks Of San Francisco by men
from the East who have Deposited sums
ranging from $4,000 upward. some OF
them are known TO be possessed OF large
wealth. Others are supposed TO represent
wealthy clients in Eastern money centres.
The purpose Of these men. bankers say.
is to invest their funds In San Francisco.
Retrenchment in all municipal depart
ments is the order that has gone forth
and there will be a great reduction In the
city's working forces within the next thirty
days. Mayor Schmitz mad the announce
ment this morning that plans already are
under discussion whereby the most r1gio
economy can be enforced.
1t is estimated that about 200 city EN-,
ployees either will lose their jobs or Will
suffer material reduction in salaries, While
this may work a hardship on many persons
working for the city, cutting down IL abso-
lutely necessary because OF the reduction
in the income Of the city; When TIE next
budget Is made up it will be found that the
total assessment roll will be lessened by
about $3.50, 900, 900. or almost one-half.
While necessary expenditures for street
work, sewers and restoration OF pubic
buildings, schools, ana IKE
permanent improvements will be immensely
greater. the income from taxation will be
altogether too small to meet the demands.
Especially would this be true should the
present municipal salary roll PREVAIL
fact that is realized by Mayor Sohmitz.
During the fiscal year the municipal
payroll aggregated about $4,000 900. 1t is
understood that every department OF the
city government will be cut down, fire and
police departments, schools, hospitals and
all the clerical force in the city proper.
In discussing the matter to-day Mayor
Schmitz said $50,
@Of course there must be most rigid
economy in the city for n long time to
come. l cannot say that there will be
Wholesale dismissals, but there will be
either OF two things-removals or reduc-
tions in salaries. No department can be
spared. We are facing a gigantic problem
in this city and financial economy must
not be overlooked
