PRENDERGAST'S NEW RULE
Controller Plans to Make Every
Employe Earn Salary.

Controller Prendergast established set
Of rules yesterday for the conduct OF en-
p,oyes Of the Finance Department which
created something Of a stir in spite OF the
fact that they have already been accus-
toned TO efficiency jolts during the year.
It is stated that violation OF any of the ten
rules will be regarded as ground for re-
moval
In a letter TO the employees accompanying
tie rules the Controller says he intends TO
stamp out the practice of bringing infiu-
ence to bear for salary increases. Any
suggestion received for salary increase
from any one outside the department will
Re considered a demerit against the en-
p;oye interested.
The Controller aleo states that he does
not propose to grant any transfers TO the
Finance Department. which might interfere
with the advancement of regular employees.
who shall have the benefit of any promo
ton that may come through vacancies.
The first rule of the Controller is that
regular hours of work shall be from a. IN.
to 8 p. m. with an hour for luncheon; but
employees are subject TO call to work UP 10
o'clock any night when it may. be neces-
sary. Absences must be reported on the
first day or will be credited as absences
without leave" Repeated hardness will
also be classed as absence without leave"
No information regarding the work Of
the department may be given TO outsiders
without an order from the Controller or
the secretary Nor may any employe CIV
ing out any information authorize the use
of the Controllers name without special
permission.
Except to those familiar with the way
affairs are conducted in public Offices, the
necessity for the last of the rules may not
be apparent. 1t reads: Employees will de-
vote themselves exclusively TO Office work
during Office hours" A copy of the rules
is TO be delivered 10 each employe, who
must give a personal receipt therefor.

for his recent opponent Governor DIX
read a carefully phrased address dealing
largely with conservation OF our hills and
streams. MT Stimson talked without notes
and with a gingery sincerity that arouseu
much enthusiasm. Mr.. Stimson said
we private citizens are very prompt to
demand that the man whom we elect shall
become the Governor of the whole state,
not the representative of any party or fac
ton. II seems to me that when We as
sumo and demand that from him. he Is en-
titled TO personal good will from us. 1 have

tlon after an effective introduction by

II should no longer be conceded as a cor
rect principle Of municipal government
that the metropolis of the nation should be
regarded as a province 10 be governed from
the capital Of the state or by any outside
authority.
The Governor began his speech by re-
ferring TO the dignity, power and influence
Of New York State. He said the high
standard of citizenship was maintained by
means OF education and by the examples
of men and women in every community
and II We wished TO maintain this, it was
our plain duty to contribute by our own
characters, exerting a wholesome influence
upon our fellow men. Continuing, he said :
