Plan to Save Money.

Commenting upon the provision that
the new Commissioner be authorized to
accept the certificate and certification
of records by any title insurance, alb
stract or searching company" Mr..
Grifenhagen said:
"This method is without precedent.
and il should not be necessary that any
comment be made upon ii beyond the
statement that when il is required that
pllblic records be copied and certified
for public purposes they should be
made and certified by the competent
officials from original records"
Under the plan proposed by Mr..
Grifenhagen it would be necessary TO
mako copies of only comparatively
small part of records pertaining to
pro,x property. because a majority of
rocords are contained in separate lbers
,,o, could be sent up TO the new county
- ,hov are. not being needed in this
,,v The records that would have
., lao conied are principally those deal
;,o with real estate transactions in
certain parts of The Bronx from 1874
o. 1870 when they were entered in
,,hore containing Manha.ta records.
rho cost Of the entire work under the
cr,fenbaeen plan would be $22J.UO. as
compared with S1.47315i under the
Stilwell bill.

The proposed Commissioner of Records
Of The Bronx would possibly. in the

FIAT JOBS FOR COPYISTS
Title Insurance and Similar
Companies Would Have Work
Accepted Without Further
Responsibility Under
the Measure.

An attempt to burden Bronx County
with AN Unnecessary expenditure of al
most S12JO,OOO through bill intro
duced 10y Senator stephen J. Stilwcll,
providing for the copying of all records
pertaining TO real estate within the new
county. was disclosed Yesterday by
Register Max Grifenhagcn.
In letters to the Corporation Counsel
and the Controller Mr.. Grifonhagen
laid bare not only the enormous waste
of money that would result from fol-
lowing out the provision of the Stilwcll
bill. but also pointed out the danger of
intrusting important public work Of
that kind to ANY title insurance. lb-
stract or searching company without
bond and without further respon-
sibility after the records have been
copied and certified.
This particular Stilwell bill. Mr..
Grifenhagen explained, ordered sweep

possibility that hundreds of thousands
Of dollars might be saved by simply
sending 10 The Bronx the libers which
contain no other records than those Of

JIM FLYNN AND
SAVAGE ARRIVE
HERE MONDAY
BY Left Hook.

TACK CURLEY, manager OF Jim
Flynn, has wired that he and
y Flynn will arrive in Atlanta Mon
day. Dan Morgan. manager Of Jim
Savage, had previously wired that he
and his man would be here either
Sunday or Monday So the Queens
berry festivities Of the city should
brighten up materially within the
next few days.
Savage and Flynn are matched to
battle ten rounds at the Auditorium
Armory
Dan Morgan, in behalf Of Savage,
has laid claim to the heavyweight
championship of the world. In his
formal statement Morgan says:
Savage has as much right to the
title as any Of the white hopes
consider him the best man in the lot.
/ believe he can whip any of them,
now that McCarty is out OF the way.
We are willing to meet any of them,
and intend to begin by polishing off
Flynn on the night OF June 10 in At
lanta."
Morgan is wild with enthusiasm
over the outlook. The sudden turn of
affairs that gave his man a cham
pionship look-in pleased him right
down to the ground. He saw the OPP
portunity and he is on on a campaign
of activity that will give Jim Savage
more scraps in the next few months
than he ever had before in his life.
II may be that Morgan's plans may
get an awful jolt right here in At
lanta. There is not any doubt
that, until a few weeks ago, he be-
ueved that his man could trim Jim
Flynn with all ease. Then came jim S
great battle with Jim Coffey, and that
was something else again. Flynn,
instead Of being on the down slant,
as Morgan hoped, proved to be as
good as ever in his career. But after
that was learned it was too late TO
back out, for the match between Saw
age and Flynn was made.
Neither Of the men wants to meet
the other now. Yet each knows that
he must 90 into It to win or to be
knocked out. There is no middle
ground now. A draw decision would
do neither Of them any good They
must win. A victory, with the heavy
weight situation as it now is. means
money to them, way up in the tens OF
thousands.
The odd way affairs have lined
themselves has played into the hands
Of the local promoters. II has made
the battle next Friday night one OF
the BIG contests of the year. The
winner is almost sure within the year
70 grab off the heavyweight cham
pionship Of the world.
