New York Costs
More Than Canal

(By United Press Associations
Washington, Jan. 9.-The cost of
running" the City Of New York dur
ing the past ten years has been great
CIR than the amount of money ex-
pended in building the Panama canal,
according to figures just published
by the Census Bureau.
New York's municipal government
cost" during the ten years from 1902
to 1911 was $685., 7,843, while the
cost of building, repairing and main
tanning the "big ditch" was only $685.
OPT, 544. The figures for New York
include maintenance of the govern
ment, protection of its citizens lives,
health and property. the schools
courts and all they entail in the care
of delinquents, lettering social condl-
tons, constructing and acquiring
properties, depreciation and losses.
The Panama Canal cost has steadily
increased during the ten years on &C
count of the advanced state OF the
work being done. In 1902 it cost
only about 100000 while in 1911
the amount was $91,454237. New
York's municipal cost has increased
in that time almost on the same scale,
the figures in 1902 being $43,322,-
573, while ten years later it was $685.

ENGAGE IN
BITTER VERBAL QUARREL

New York. Jan. 9-Petulant, APP
parently, because England jailed him
when he arrived on her chill cliffs. a
penniless stowaway, Harry Kemp, the
hatless, long-haired Kansas rhyme
ster, took bitter fling at Rudyard
Kipling as poet. Berton Braley took
up the cudgels for the creator of
"Mulvaney," and thus brought on a
poetry duel recalling the famous in
terchange between William Watson
and Richard LIE Caffeine, when Wat
son with his:
"She is not old, she is not young,
The woman with the serpent's
tongue"
made a yelled attack on the wife Of
Premier Asquith.s
Kemp wrote this:
"To Kipling:
"Vile singer of the bloody deeds OF
empire
And of the bravery that exploits
the poor,
Exalter of the subservience to mas
tiers,
Bard of the race that bound and
robbed the Boer-
"We note your metaphors that shine
and glisten,
But, underneath your sounding
verse, we see
The exploitation and the wide corrup-
ton,
The lying and the vice and mis-
cry.
"Your people lay upon the backs of
others
The bullet and the prison and the
rod, p 4. y
Wherewith We scourge the races that
subserve you
And then blaspheme by blaming it
on God"
To which Braley promptly replied:
"To Harry Kemp:
ssEmitter of unnecessary noises,
Blowing a penny whistle loud and
long,
Trying to drown the blaring of the
trumpets
With puny tootlings or with futile
song.
eve hear your notes of thin and stri-
dent clamor;
We see you whirl in wild and der
wish glee,
Shrilling at Kipling-and we look up
On you,
Saying in wonder, 'Ooinellishe.'
"Not always does the master sing his
noblest;
Sometimes he carols in dreary
style,
But who are you, you cheap and
tawdry bardlet,
To hint him servile or to call him
'vile'?"

Business Manager
For Dayton, 0.

(By United Press Associations
Dayton, o., Jan. 9.-1t's new
thing in American municipal govern
ment to place at the head of a big
city administration with a lot of
good jobs to hand out man who
doesn't know whether he is Repub-
lican or a Democrat, and doesn't care
whether any of his appointees are
good politicians or not. But that is
just what has happened in Dayton,
by the appointment of Henry M. Waite
to the position of business manager.
He will have complete control of the
municipal government.
White came here from Cincinnati,
where he was chief engineer of the
city under Mayor Henry T. Hunt, and
where he revolutionized the methods
of improving the public streets and
sewers. He had previously been
railroad engineer and superintendent,
and when Hunt discovered him he was
in charge of some mining property
in West Virginia. He didn't land on
a bed of roses when he took the Gin
cinnati job His appointment met with
disfavor among the old time polite
ans in the Republican and Democratic
parties, who thought the jobs in the
city hall ought to go to the men who
delivered the votes on election day.
Waite only smiled at this and it wasn't
long until he had convinced Cincin-
natl that he had the goods.
Waite is the grandson of the late
Chief Justice M. r. Waite of the Unit
ed States Supreme court. He is a
bachelor and his only amusements are
motoring and golf. There isn't road
within sixty miles of Cincinnati that
he doesn't know and the minute he
leaves his work he is out in his car.
Physically he is of the Lincoln type,
being tall, rather stopped at the
shoulders, and with a chin which in
dicates persistence and spells disas-
ter to the Republican and Democratic
politicians of Dayton who are expect
ing him to fall down on the job in
the hope that they can return to pow
,r.
Waite is AZ years of age. He is to
receive salary of $12.500 a year.
which is an advance of $4,000 a year
over his salary in Cincinnati.
Waite's selection followed the adop-
ton of new charter by the voters
of Dayton last summer This char
ter provides for the commission plan
of government. The people elected
/, five commissioners, one of whom is
to act as mayor The commissioners
under the charter were charged with
the selection of a business manager,
who will have charge of the general
administration. The duties of the
mayor are perfunctory.
The plan is to emphasize the vari-
Gus features of the plan of organi-
cation of private corporations in the
municipal government. The citizens
are the stockholders, the commission
ers are the board of directors and
the business manager represents the

Washington, Jan. "a statewide

DUNDEE PAPER Tells
OF THE RESPONSE TO
CALlFOR VOLUNTEERS

John Sharpe. foreman OF the street
department, whose mother is at Dun
dee, Scotland, has sent him the even
ing paper of Dundee, in which appears
an advertisement for 100000 volunteers.
Relative to the response to the ad-
vertisement by the gallant Scotchmen.
the paper says:
"A steady stream of strapping young
lads is pouring into the recruiting Of
fees at Dundee.
THE communication issued by the
official press bureau dealing with the
terms of enlistment for the new army
has had it's effect already. A misap-
prehension had arisen that recruits
were forced to serve a certain number
of years, but the statement by the
Army Council that any man enlisting
in the army under the present condi-
tions Will be discharged with all dis
patch Immediately the war is over has
cleared the air.
1T has had the effect OF bringing
forward the right type of men-the
men who were willing to go to their
country's aid in the time of necessity.
but who wished to return to their sit
uations once hostilities ceased.
Large crowds gathered outside the
recruiting offices, and a large staff was
kept busy filling up the necessary
forms"
