.GAYNOR SHOOTING
SHOCKS DETROIT
Mayor Wires City's Sympathy ;
Praises New FORKS Executive as
A Reformer.

Acting Mayor of New York City:
Detroit shares the regret the
whole country must feel over the
cowardly attack on Mayor Gay
nor. Every admirer OF good citL
zenship and honest public service
joins me In the hope of the speedy
and complete recovery of that
splendid official.
PHILIP BREITMEYER.
In the above telegram, sent to New
York, Tuesday morning, Mayor Brett.
meyer expresses what seems to be the
sentiment Of the community generally
relative to the shooting Of New Torhs1
chiof executive. The news caused 4
genuine shock In the city hall and
Mayor Breitmeyer lost no time In ex'
tending his sympathy on behalf OF the
citizens Of Detroit.
Assessor Henry Plass had an attack
OF the creeps when, just after the re-
port OF the shooting had been noised
around, discharged employe Of the
assessors office dropped in and poked
his head In at the assessors door.
Nothing happened, but the assessor
admits that he felt rather shaky for .
moment.
~Tt is unfortunate that Mayor Gay
nor should be the victim OF such an
attack, when he is In the midst OF the
great reforms he has instituted" said
Mayor Breitmeyer. HE Is a man who
saw his opportunity and took advan-
tage of It. There is opportunity In
nearly every city for similar reforms,
on q smaller scale. They are going
on, too, though not 80 much Is heard
about them.
Take 1t right here In Detroit, for
Instance. Our police department is
doing twice as much as 1t did former
ly with practically the same number
of men. This Is no reflection on any
previous commissioner, but 1t simply
shows what change In administers
ton Will do.
Our department OF public works is
rendering better service this year than
II ever did before. All the city de.
partments are doing good work. in
fact, and they are pulling together In
harmony. Where you have things go
ing that way you are going to get re-
suits and Detroit Is getting them"
Instead. of lettering the reform
work In New York, the shooting OF
Mayor Gaynor will only serve to act
as a spur to greater effort whether he
lives or dies" said Assessor Plass,
who, like the mayor. Is a Republican.
Citizens who have taken only pas
sive interest In the reform movement
heretofore will now take an active in
terest"
