MUST CUT EXPENSES.
Even Boston's Heavy Tax Rate Can
not Stand Present Heavy Burden.

Boston. Feb. Gothic Finance Com
mission will tomorrow send state
ment to the city council declaring that
unless the present administration re-
duces the pay rolls through economy
in administration will not be attained
nor will have relief from the heavy
tax burden.
The commission finds that since 1885
the payrolls have increased two and
one-half times as great as the popula-
ton. and that at least one-fifth of the
laboring force are incapable of doing
a full days work on account of age.
The commission recommends ellmin-
ating superfluous members reducing
salaries Of subordinates, procuring
better men for department heads and
establishing a merit system of pro-
motion.
