altogether reasonable to suspcnd the
appropriation for advertisinE-an cx-
penditure which brings no direct re-
turn
PoLLoCK COMMENTS on
LAVISH EXPENDITURES
Mr.. Pollock digresscd TO point 10
what he regarded the laXity with which
money for advertising purposes has
been spent in the past. y recent ex-
ample he said. was the appropriation
by the city of $4,000 for the enter
tainment OF the bankers He was
ashamed to admit. he said, that he was
among those In the Council who voted
for this appropriation. He urged that
the $4,000 appropriation be stricl;cn
from the budget and the money applied
10 more pressing need.
President Peters. of the Common
Council who is also chairman of the
Council Committee on Advertising and
Enterprises. took the floor in opposi-
ton to Mr.. Pollocks motion. The So
GOO appropriation for advertising pur-
poses. he thought was altogether mod
est. il was half the amount that was
set aside for this purpose in the budget
of 1914. II was his belief. said Mr.. Pc
tcrs. that every cent the city has ex-
pended in advertising has been profit
ably spent The committee in charge
of the fund. he said could be trusted
to see ;hat the money will not be
wasted.
