ueieat speaker Sweet because of his
leadership In the ratification Of the Fed

The saloon interests, as a matter Of
Iact. are opposing the Republican As

cording to Information received at State

LA GUARDIA EXPOSES
WASTE IN GARBAGE
Tammany Asks $3,330,000
Appropriation for Dumping
It Into Sea.

The safeguard to the public against
the policy of extravaganza ana procras-
tination of the Hylan administration"
said F. III. La Guardia. Republican can
dfdate FOR President of the Board of
Aldermen. last night, els to have some
body In the Board of Estimate opposed
to Tammany Hall and its policy of jobs
and contracts Tammany now controls
the eight members of the board. Some
body with an eye to economy rather
than to contracts should sit in that Board
OF Estimate as ajpro:ection to the pub
lic."
Mr.. La Guardia was speaking at a re-
ception given to Richard NJ. Lawrence,
the recently elected chairman OF the Re
publican county committee of The Bronx,
IN the Knights of Pithias Temple, 149th
street and Walton avenue.
The speaker condemned the Hylan adj
ministration for its wasteful and ex-
travagant method of disposing of gar
bage by paying private contractors to
dump 1t in the sea. and compared it
with the method used In other cities,
where a municipal revenue Is derived
from garbage disposal
1.-THE 1920 tentative budget of the De-
partment of Street Cleaning contains
an appropriation of $3.300.000 for the
final disposition of garbage, ashes and
rubbish" said Mr.. La Guardia. THE
1919 budget, also made up by the Tam
many administration, provided $4,000
600 for this purpose. The amount in
the 1918 budget was s1.360.253. There
fore. in two years, the administration
has increased the budget appropriation
s1.939.747. or more than 2i2 per cent.
This is the outrageous result of inef-
ficiency. favoritism and procrastination.
while New York city is at the mercy
OF an extravagant and incompetent, al
ministration, as evidenced by this and
other blunders. other cities are turning
the final disposition to profitable ad-
vantage. For instance. the annual re-
port OF the municipal department OF Chi
cago for 1918 says that in that year the
municipal plant took in $3.50. 900, and
for the first time profit will be realized.
approximately $4,000 over the cost of
production Compare this with an 1p-
preparation in the 1920 New York city
tentative budget of $500. 900. This
money, of course. has nothing to do with
the pay of our street cleaning force. but
is money paid to private contractors.
Just imagine! Not one cent will be re-
turned TO the city.
1.-THE administration is still resorting
to the barbarous method of dumping
garbage at sea, although this was the
subject of a protest from the Navy De-
partment, which deplored this pollution
This method has been abandoned years
ago In all other large cities.
1.-THE disposition of garbage IL munic-
ipal function and should be performed
by the city and not let out to private
contractors"

closes a condition in the city's finances
which calls for the exercise Of prudence
and economy in mourning new indebt-
edness and in making appropriations for
annual expenses.
1T Is a very easy matter and very
popular to tell public official what to
do with the peoples money. Nothing
pleases the financial interests and trac-
tion crowd more than to see the finances
of the city in most embarrassing CON
dition" ~
VIII Ask for Bond Issues,
AS matter of fact gossip in the City
Hall has 1t that the cuts will be double
the $19,000,0 900 excess over the constitu-
ional limit IL the Mayor and Comptroller
Craig can bring It about without inhict-
| ing hardship on any of those persons OIL
the pay rolls who are there through the
grace of the administration.
The Mayors statement on Tuesday
with regard to the cutting of all ex-
lenses save those necessary for the
proper housing OF additional school chill
dren and the paving OF streets is now
taken to mean that the administration
will go to Albany this winter with a pro-
posal to relax the pay-as-you-go statutes
| far enough to enable bonds to be issued
to cover the cost of new school erection
and emergency paving held up by the
war. These two items will run well up
over $40, 000.0 900. and IL the Mayor can
get them out of the budget he will have
| held his tax rate to a poin. which will
still be in all probability the highest in
the city's history, but still not at the
terrifying figure of 2.93.
Also II he can defer these expendi-
lures to future administrations and
future generations he will get his budget
through this year without substantial
salary cuts. There are likely to be lega,
difficulties over such a procedure, how
ever. as the budget must be adopted
finally before the end of this month,
while the Legislature does not meet
until January
During the discussion OF the police
and firemen's pay this afternoon Comp
troller Craig gave evidence of the depths
to which the cut in the budget will go.
Hot air." he said of the talk that
the city's tax rate was to be higher. He
declared he did not believe the rate will
go up. This will necessitate a cut in all
probability Of almost S50.000.0 900.

BUDGET PROPOSAL Is.
TOO BIG, SAYS HYLAN
Exceeds Constitutional Limit
by S19,356,O22.57, Mayor
Declares.

Mayor Hylan yesterday showed lucidly
how the $4,000, 900 city budget. pre-
pared by the committee upon which he
sat as a member, is impossible unde-
the constitution and the law. As Mayor
he began the demolition of the Franken-
stein he had helped to create as a
member Of the budget committee of the
Board OF Estimate
He issued. statement upon the oc-
casion Of Judge Wadhams's charge to
the october Grand Jury criticising the
parsimony of police and fire pay. He
declared that Judge Wadhams wrong.
fully and knowingly put such matter
in his charge to the jury. The Mayor
appended figures to show that in the
tentative budget the city had treated
the policemen and firemen as well as
possible and then some.
He showed that the tentative budget
now stands S19.356.02 in excess OF
the constitutional limits. and says II
will be imperative to reduce the bulge.
by that much. But II the budget is cut
no more than that 1t will still call. with
the debt service items. for a tax rate
at the unprecedented figure of 2.93, on
the Mayors estimate of this years
assessed valuations.
The Mayor again charges that trac-
ton interests are eager 10 see tne CITY
in financial difficulties, presumably in
order that the city may not take over
failed lines. His statement follows:
I'm regard to Judge Wadham's charge
to the October Grand Jury with refer
ence to the pay to New York police
and firemen I wish to say that 1t is not
proper matter to be presented to the
Grand Jury. which Judge Wadhams
knows better than anybody else. The
police. firemen and other employees of
the city have been treated fairly and
1 regret that we cannot do even more
for them.
Constitutional Obstacle.
THE increase of salaries amount to
over s23. 1000, 900. AS the tentative bud
get now stands 1 do not think 1t can
be financed under Article VIII. of Sec

The Mayor here quotes the Constitu-
ton, which limits taxes, save those for
the department service. to not more
than 2 per cent. of the city's assessed
valuation. and adds:

MAYOR HASA
CLOSE CALL
IN SCUFFLE WITH NEGRO
OVER GUN LAST
SATURDAY.
Negro Beaten into Submission
and Arrested-GOes to
County Farm.

Mayor McClanahan had q close call
Saturday night when he wrestled
with a negro for the possession of a
pistol which fell from the blacks
pocket.
The trouble with the negro occurred
on the steps of the Mayors home on
North Third avenue. The negro, Major
Blewett, was talking with Mr.. Nc
Clanahan about a contract, and he
appeared under the influence Of whis-
key. A pistol dropped from his pocket
and Mr.. McClanahan went for It. The
negro caught hold about the same
time and they wrestled for its possess
ion for a few seconds, the negro, hold
ing on obstinately and trying his
best to wrest it from the Mayors
hold.
Mr.. McClanahan had it by the bar
rel and the negro held the handle. The
Mayor displayed rare presence of
mind and suddenly struck the negro's
hand which was gripping the weapon.
The pistol dropped to the ground and
Mr.. McClanahan hit the negro in the
face and quickly picked up the gun.
He landed stiff blow to the ne
gro's head with the but Of the gun,
knocking him down. He hit the negro
several blows, bringing him into COM
plete submission. The members Of the
Mayors family had telephoned the
police and officers responded promp-
tly and the negro was landed in jail
Mr.. McClanahan states that the
negro called at his home about o
clock Saturday night, stopping at the
bottom of the steps. The negro asked
the Mayor to finance a building con-
tract for him. Mr.. McClanahan saw
that the negro was partially under
the influence of liquor, and did moi
give him any encouragement. Sudden
ly the pistol dropped from Blewett''
pocket and the scramble for its poss
ession ensued.
When arrested Blewett had bot
tie of whiskey in his pocket.
He was tried before Judge Cum
mings Monday and in both cases was
fined $3.50 and sent to the county farm
for sixty days.

Columbus this week.
Mr.. Cook is here making arrange
ments for the showing of the motion
picture of the pageant of Mississippi,

The pageant was most brilliant

Mississippi, from the days of the pion-
eer up to the present time. 1t was
beautifully presented, and faultlessly
executed by hundreds of students OF

fine success from. every stand point
Motion pictures were made from
it, and they will be presented il
Columbus in the near future.
