legislative changes that will tend to
a saving in the cost Of running the
city government are suggested by the
Real Estate Board of New York. The
suggestion is the result OF what the last
budget aud other budgets have taught
officials and real estate men Of the city.
Mandatory legislation has imposed on
the city expense which cannot he les
sencd or obviated. no matter how un-
necessary the service rendered IN re-
turn may be.
\ great reduction would have been
made in the 1915 budget had the state
not saddlcd expenses on the city which
cannot he removed except by legisla-
tive action. With the hope Of reducing
the cost Of operating the city without
loss Of efficiency the legislation and tan
alton committee OF the Real Estate
Board has been considering n number
of changes that it thinks would prove q
saving TO the city.
1t suggests that the Board Of Estimate
should have power over the Board of
Board of water Supply, Commissioner
of Records. Bronx Parkway Commission
and Court House Board, since the city
OF New York supports these depart
ments.
II the measures that are being pre-
pared for the next Legislature are en-.
acted tho Board OF Estimate will be
given something to say az to how these
city supported departments are con-
Quoted.
