"BROOKLYN Is JEILOCS.'
Opposes Charter Revision, Says Mr.
Mc4neny.

The proverbial Jealousy of Brooklyn figured some
what largely in the discussion of the charter
which the Wonlan's Municipal League devoted
its monthly meeting No. 10 East 26th street yes
terday morning. The first speaker, Chase Mellen,
counsel to the Charter Revision Commission. traced
this unamable sentiment away back to 1857, when
Brooklyn called Brueckelin and got Its first
charter from Governor Nicos. because It afraid
that the inha bitants of Manhattan would encroach
protesting against the Incorporation of Brooklyn as
q city the ground that there was room for
another city so near its own borders.
These ancient jeaIousies have yet died out It
seems. and according TO George McAneny, of the
Charter Revision Commission, they constitute one
OF the stumbling blocks in the commissions way

situation and borough lines in his mind evidently

THE great trouble in city government Mr.
McAneny said lis lack of coordination. and great
part of that lack comes from the division of the
city into boroughs The city is and ought 10
have its business centralized Tunnels and bridges
have wiped all geographical lines but Brooklyn
sentiment still persists and stands in the way OF
our efforts 10 get the citys business managed in
more orderly fashion. I don't want TO be harsh
Mr.. McAneny turned TO the chairman. Mrs Thomas
French. who happens 10 be a resident OF Brooklyn
but no one section of the city has a right 10
stand in the way of the welfare OF the whole.
Mrs. French said she could bear anything Mr.
McAneny saw fit 70 say. but added
You must admit that Brooklyn pays part OF tbs
taxes OF Manhattan by coming over here for bust
ness and pleasure
ION the other hand" returned Mr. McAneny. we
go TO Coney Island All this simply shows that the
city IS a whole and cannot be divided into parts"
