INSURGENTS TRYING
TOOUST W. w." HEADS
Meeting Discusses Plan Of
Downfall of Associ-
alton Officers

Pians to overthrow the present man
agemcnt Of the Young Womcn's Chris
tan Association wore made last night at
meeting Of tho SO called "nsurgcnt"
members of the various Y. w. G.. A.
branches of this city. The meeting
was held at Seventeenth and Arch
streets.
The session also celebrated the recent
State Supreme Court decision which
gives all members OF the association
the right to vote for its officers. This
decision grew out Of a suit against the
central orga nization by eight members
of the Kensington branch, who gained
wide following.
The speakers last night charged that
as a result of their victory over the
central organization the latter is
spreading rumors saying that if the
present officers of the association are
not re elected at a coming meeting the
national board will assume control of
Philadelphia.
The Insurgents maintain further that
the central branch has also caused ru-
mors to be spread abroad that if the
present government is not continued
''G' members over twenty five years
old who are living at the various as
sociation buildings will be dismissed.

SEES HIGHER TAXES
IN CITY WAGE BOOST.
Mayor Does Not Favor In
creases Except for Low
Paid Employees
PLANS TO KEEP DOWN FORCE

Mayor Smith does not favor any more
salary increases for city employees. He
believes that the city tax rate will be
! increased to 81 if bigger salary
policy is carried out.
| The Mayor expressed himself against
increased salaries in commenting today
upon the proposal that n salary OF
$4,000 be offered for chief of the -divi-
sion of housing and sanitation, in
| lieu of the present salary of S31O0.
There must be an end somewhere
to the universal increasing of salaries y
the Mayor said. "If Councils passes a
will sign it, but it does seem to me that
they could get man fitted for that
place at the present salary.
The first thing we know this town
Will have tax rate of s.. Things will
be taxed out of sight.
II am not advocating any increases,
1t $ all mistake to think of that now."
Mayor Smiths attitude during the
Iast two years has been against salary
/ increases. except for low paid employees
! of the city. However. he has signed
: ''''' ~ lHtltdStS 1DT bHlpI
Hicks. of the Street Cleaning Bureau,
ana for several engineers. During the
present administration the tax rate has
increased from 81 to S1.75.
The Philadelphia Housing Commits
SION is seeking to have the salary of
me chief of the housing and sanitation
division increased to enable an expert
to be procured for the position. At the
present time the position is vacant,
three examinations having been held and
none of the applicants qualifying ac-
cording to housing experts.
1t is contended that high type sapi-
tation engineer should have the berth.
and that a $1,000 salary will bring the
proper applicant
Recently Mayor Smith declared that
an increase of force. or new inspectors
was not contemplated with respect to
the sanitation end.
'Counrilmen don't take the sewers
seriously he said today. They are
underground and cannot be seen from
the outside. Many of them don't know
which wards have good sewer systems
and which have not Unless their at
tention is called to the situations that
arise from the outside, no effort is made
to provide remedial action. or money to
put in new systems.
