.B0DINE'S AUTO
BILL Held UP
Supt. Of Streets Had Skimp-
ed His Departmental
Work to Get New Car
Alderman Moran Wants
Colleagues in Aldermanic
Body to Review Other
Bills.

For the purpose Of bringing to the
attention Of his fellow members of
the Board of Aldermen certain bills
submitted to the Finance committee
last night. Alderman Moran Of the
committee of the Sixth refused to
approve them. In the absence of AL
derman Lyddy. the three other al
dermen, Brady, Guy P Miller and
MacFayden, gave the bills their ap.
proval.
The bills which Moran refused to
approve are those of Peter White, fol-
his staff of accountants up to April
1. amounting to $4,296.27; George L.
Catlin, clerk of the Board of Con-
tract and Suppl, for $10O and Anna
A. Quinlan, temporarily stenograph-
er for the Board of Contract and Sup
ply for $40.
The entire committee held up two
bills, one for $1,000 and the other
for $3.50, presented by Supt. of Street
Cleaning A. ]. Bodine. The first was
for a new Overland car. the second
for the care of a car. These will be
further investigated before action is
taken.
Bodine cut down his staff of men
and left snow piled in the streets
planning to save enough of last
years money to get the car, but this
failing he has sent the bill in for
payment from his regular FUNDS. The
bills which Moran alone refused to
sign were contracted before the pres
ent fiscal year began and there was
no money available for the purpose
up to April 1.

1t is said. though not officially, that
the association was moved to this
course by the action of Mayor Wilson
and the Board of Relief in granting
rebates to four or five manufacturing
concerns, in February, after the as
SCISSORS had fixed their value at a
figure believed to be fair to all estab-
lishments This action was gener-
ally thought to be arbitrary and un-
fair to manufacturers who took no
appeal.
The Manufacturers Association to-
day issued the following statement
descriptive of their purpose:

zation of tax assessments among Its
members and such other manufactur-
ing concerns as Join the plan. the

ed for an expert disinterested ap-
praisal Of these properties by the Uni
led States Appra isal Company of Bos-

and a corps of specialists will visit
each of these factories in turn and
apply uniform methods in arriving at
results for the purpose of assisting
the assessors in fixing the values of
the manufactures. The undertaking
is intended to be finished in time to
be operative on the tax lists to be
filed September 1st.

Tho Manufacturers Association OF
Bri sgeport has employed the United
States Appraisal Company of Bos-
ton TO make an expert disinterested
appraisal of the property Of the mem
bers of the association for the pur-
pose OF equitably apportioning any
further increases on manufacturing
property.
The result will be expressed in
terms of percentage. The appraisal!
will be so arranged that no manufac-
turer will know the value of the
property Of another. Each will be
furnished merely with a table IN
which the percentage relation Of each
plant to the value of all plants will
be shown.
The idea in application is simple.
Assume that the appraisers establish
a value for taxation of so plants. and
that all of these values added togeth-
er make a total value of $60, 100000
One plant is found to be worth $1,000
900. This plant represents say one
sixtieth Of the total valuation OF all
plants or one and two thirds percent.
This figure one and two-thirds per-
cent will appear in the list Of percen-
tages submitted to the assessors. the
theory being that they will use 1t
for the purpose of determining the
proposition of any tax increases up
on manufacturing plants that should
be laid upon this establishment

London, April 11-With floor and

fight for the Irish Home Rule in a
quarter Of century, when Premier

Liberal government for autonomy in
Ireland.
Thousands were anxious to hear the
