aries and the remainder on the work
mentioned above and such emergen-
cies as may occur. The mayor argued
that this might be reduced with SAT
ETY. of $4,000.
Losses in Revenues.
The city will begin the new fiscal
year with nearly $4,000 less in the
treasury than last. The frontage tax,
AN item of $1,000, cannot, according
to ruling of the supreme court, be
collected. If one-half of the saloon
men go out of business in April it
will reduce the city's revenues $4,000.
If all continue until January L, 1916,
the reduction from this source will
/ only be $4,000. This years city valua-
ton is $4,000 less than last. In
view of these losses and thep robabil-
ity that $4,000 will be appropriated
for constructing sidewalks, it seemed
| necessary to increase the levy nearly
a mill and quarter over last year,
regardless of the fact that a reduction
of $1,000 will be saved by curtail-
ing expenses in various departments
Increased Levy Does Not Meet With
Favor.
Attorney B. W. Ritter appeared to
voice the sentiment of the taxpayers
when he stated that he was appalled,
at the prospects of an increase in the
levy. He said that he believed the
commissioners should not increase it
but minimize the expense of opera
tions until the old levy could be main
tanned.
Among the plans suggested for
curtailing expense was that Of W. G.
White, who believes the police force
should be reduced to one man. a night
watchman, who would be on duty from
8 at night until 6 in the morning,
While this was not adopted, it brought
forth considerable discussion.
No Definite Action Taken.
The session lasted for nearly three
hours, and at the end it was practi-
cally decided to leave the matter with
the commissioners to use their dis
cretion.

FEW GERMAN MILITARY We.
HICLES.

In view Of the present Franco Ger
man imbroglio, it is interesting to
note that in March of the present
year Germany had but 1,225 motor
trucks Of type suitable for military
use. OF these 1926 actually had passs
ed the military requirements and their
owners had received subventions. The
subvention amounts to 5000 marks or
about $3.50 for an army wagon with
one or more trailers, and 1900 marks
or about $3.50 for an ordinary truck.
This amount may be considered the
purchase price, although for the sue
ceeding four years the owner receives
as a premium 1900 marks or $500
annually for an army train and about
5000 annually for an ordinary truck.
These 1926 vehicles were supplied by
16 makers.

Sporting Review
by Hal Sheridan

NEW HAVEN, Conn.,, Nov. 21.-
In the largest arena In the world and
before what was expected to be the
greatest crowd that ever witnessed
sporting event anywhere, Harvard
meets Yale today in the annual grid
iron battle which win dedicate this
monster new home of the Blue eleven.
The massiveness Of this structure,
built around the field where the TWEEN
ty-two men of the Blue and of the
Crimson will clash in physical combat
for the honor Of their alma matters,
fairly takes away ones breath. There
are seats for 10000 spectators in the
tier upon tier of steps. On the rim
Of the bowl have been erected 10000
additional seats. Graduate Manager
Of Athletics Everard Thompson an
nounced today that every one Of the
10000 tickets had been sold or re-
served three days ago.
In the distribution by allotment of
this vast number Of tickets Manager
Thompson hit upon a plan by which
he believes he has completely elm
mated the spectators, who had hoped
to reap veritable harvest. Each
applicant was made to fill out blank
college. This rule held with Har-
with his name, address, and class in
ward students and graduates as we'll
as those from Yale. Money for tick
cts had TO accompany each blank.
Each applicant was numbered up to
10000. The Yale and Harvard ath-
letic associations received $4,000
which will be evenly divided.
The new bowl cost Yale 100000
and is made entirely Of concrete. The
top, which is ffty-hye feet above the
gridiron is $50 yards--a half mile
in circumference. The person who
wants to walk back and forth along
the tier Of seats until be has covered
every tier, would have twenty-four
miles of pacing to his credit, The
bowl is to be used exclusively for
football games, and inside Of six
years it is expected to pay for itself.
There Is no standing room in the
structure. It took force Of 1000
students and salaried officials to show
the spectators to their seats today.
The approach Of the bowl resem-
bles Uncle Sans coast defenzca The
sloping grassy bank, which rises
gradually from.the outside to height
of seyenty-fve feet completely hides

(3.98) mills on the dollar valuation
and the sum expected to be derived
from this source, i e, general taxation
is Sl7,569. This is. apportioned as
follows: For the redemption of out
standing bonds As mills or s2,l1s.s8;
for interest ON outstanding bonds, s
mills or S3,531.45, and for general
purposes 81 mills or S11,91S.67. In
estimating the revenues to be derived
from general taxation, the commits
sioners anticipate only on SO per
cent collection and it has been dem
onstrated in the past that the net re-
turn to the city rarely exceeds that
amount. One of the main items en-
-tering into the per cent loss is the
2 per cent deducted by the county for
making the collections.
The revenue from all other sources
has been estimated at $3S,500, divided

INTERESTING REVIEW
OF THE AMENDMENTS
{ By Alva A. swain)

The vote on the sixteen proposed
laws and constitutional amendments
shows some very interesting side
lights on the views people take of
matters when they have the right
to perform the duties of legislation.
The six year amendment which
was intended to prevent the resub-
mission Of a question for six years
after it had been voted upon was
defeated beacuse it carried joker.
Under its provisions a defeated meas
ure could not be voted upon for six
years but an adopted measure could
be resubmitted in two years.
The vote on prohibition revealed
the fact that it was the people
who didn't vote two years ago who
carried the bill this time. The vets
polled within 5000 of as many votes
as they did two years ago. At that

TAXPAYERS
MEET WITH
CITY DADS

Ihirty-eight taxpayers responded
to the invitation of the commission
ers to meet at city hall last night
and determine if some arrangements,
satisfactory to those who foot the
bills, coult'ssnot be reached to curtail
aw expenses and reduce the

miss ,as to draft tax levy ordin-
ance in accordance with the practi-
cal suggestions made by representa-
tive taxpayers.
Suggestions for Reducing Expenses
in Mayors Department.
Mayor Scouton presided at the
meeting and in his opening remarks
stated that in view of the present
financial conditions, he approved of
reducing expenses to minimum. As
commissioner of public affairs he be
lieved that the expenses in the de-
partments that come under his su-
pervision could be decreased $4,000
without affecting the efficiency of any
of them. He proposed making the
following reductions: Fire depart
ment from $4,000 to $4,000; street de
partment from $4,000 to $4,000; po-
lice department from $4,000 to $2,1O0,
this being effected by reducing the
night force to one man; cemetery and
parks from 81 800 to $1,000.
In the Water and Sewer Department
Commissioner Redman stated that
it would be impractical to reduce the
present sewer appropriation of $500
Last year the appropriation for the
water department was $4,000 and in
constructing the $500 feet of new
line on the Florida this was over
drawn $4,000. This year he thinks
that the reservoirs should be cleaned,
which viii entail an expense of s3,50O
and some permanent work done on the
pipe lire in the vicinity of the milk
ranch and where the line crosses the
pasture in the L. L. Smith field. Mr.
Redman feels that it will require

time the measure was defeated by
over 10000 and this time it was
adopted by over 10000, a difference
of $4,000. Allowing a falling off
of 5000 for the vets it shows that
$4,000 drys voted this time who did
not vote two years ago. This came
through the organization of Finch of
the Anti-Saloon league and through
the various revival meetings that
were conducted throughout the state.
The next four measures, the three
fourts jury bill, the child welfare
commission bill, the probation bill and
the bill giving the governor the right
to call special elections to vote on
