into which the alcohol was poured by

the Javary, an oil burner, was taking

Hylan Wishes Papers
Would Say Nice Things

Mayor Hylan, speaking last night at
the tenth annual dinner OF the Tam
many Hall Speakers Bureau at the
Hotel Commodore, proposed the organ
ization of boosters club fer New
York City and said he thought it would
be nice If the newspapers would join it
and begin boosting instead of knocking.
"Now, if we could get the papers to
begin saying nice things about the
CITY," said the Mayor. we would have
people coming here from all parts Of
the country to spend their money"
The Mayor, while hoping that the
papers have been taught a lesson and
will be good during the next four
years, made it clear that he has not
forgotten their conduct during the past
four years. He said that Tammany
was given little opportunity to present
its case curing the election campaign
because of the hostile press, but de
ciared that the press did not succeed
in fooling the people.
The dinner was given in honor of the
Tammany candidates in the election.
Comptroller Charles l.. Craig, Dock
Commissioner Murray Hubert and
Morris B. Blumenthal were the other

mileage, Mr.. Turner said, would have
the effect Of balancing operating costs
aponst total revenues.
On the subject Of interborough traf-
fic, Mr.. Turner's report says:
1T is proposed to create INTERIOR
ough routes, routes that will traverse
the streets in each borough and will
permit considerable interchange of
travel from one borough to another
without transfer. From the standpoint
of public service the interborough
lines proposed should be operated as
Manhattan lines. The advantage Of
gers from considerable portion Of the
outlying boroughs an opportunity to
enter into and traverse the central
borough for d single fare"
For the relief of vehicular traffic The
plan reads:

The plan, which would result in radi-

Turner upon the following considera-
tons:
That new system of surface lines is
needed that will permit the most con-
venient and freest circulation about
the borough for single fare and with
a minimum amount of transfer, and
that will have sufficient capacity to
meet all the traffic requirements
That, therefore, the rc-routing Of the

Gates Of deposit bearing interest. No
trouble is anticipated in securing the
consent Of 95 per cent of amount of
d"positors to accept this plan. De-
lay III securing the necessary number
OF them has been due to the fact that
the dapositors are widely scattered
and will require some days TO make
visits to the homes or places of bust
ness of all of them. In the few days
that representatives of the bank have
been getting signatures Of dcpositors
close at hand total of some $780,
600 Of the $78O,0OO involved has
been signed over. This is not a great
distance from the goal of 95 per cent
and it is practically certain that the
remaining number necessary to make
the arrangement a complete success
will be obtained shortly.
Present at the meeting of the
