As city treasurer, Mr.. Traeger turned
over to the city without hesitation every
dollar earned as interest. This actor
called forth much favorable comment
from the press and from civic societies
at that time.
As city comptroller, Mr.. Traeger in
augurated many reforms, especially the
practice of selling bonds Of the city
directly to the people. More thar
81, 100000 in bonds were thus sold at
par, making a saving to the city Of
about $50, 1000, giving the citizens a de,
sirable investment and demonstrating
what may be done when smaller de-
nominations can be offered.
Mr.. and Mrs. Traeger, with their
three children, reside in q beautiful
home of their own at 921 West 54th
Place and from October l, 1899, down
to the present time The Broad Az has
been a constant fixture in their home.
