Practically every safeguard against
loose practices by department heads
has been thrown aside in the making
up of the Hylan administration final
budget, it was revealed yesterday at
the first public hearing before the
Board of Estimate.
The proposed final budget totals
1851 ,970, 900 as it stands now. This ex
ceeds by more than $2,000,000 the esti-
mate which Comptroller Craig has de-
clared can be legally voted on and keep

So 100000 for inc ases in salaries Of
Tammany offce-hvlders VIII did not
appear in the tentative budget when it
was submitted to the taxpayers and
rent payers.
The increases cannot be traced now
because the Tammany budget makers
have discarded the fundams ttal of sci
ontific budget making, the itemizing Of
the lump sum system, which can cover
multitude of sins.
Given for Campaign Aid
The Tribune is in possession of in
formation tending to show that some
of these salary increases were decided
upon last week at the campaign head
quarters of Mayor Hylsn and that the
increases were granted in consid era
tion of support of the Tammany ticket
by city employees.
Some of these meetings were held
in the rooms occupied by the Hylan
League, at SO East Forty Street.
The conferences at which these sa ary
increases were decided were not pre-
SIDED over by memDels Of the Board OF
Estimate, as required by law, but by
campaign managers of Mayor Hylan
and his Tammany running mates.
More than $4,000,00O in pension items
was omitted from the budget. These,
if included, would make the budget as
it stands more than $356,O00,O0O.
The item Cor teachers pensions, some
$1,f53,0OO, has been ie1t out of tne
budget. SO, too, has the 81, l,499,000 for
police pensions, and the $l,l59,0C0 Tor
the pensions of firemen and other city
employees
Last year S27,OOO 600 for teachers
salaries was deliberately omitted from
the 1921 budget.
Even the friends of Mayor Hylan ad-
m tied yesterday that the salary in
crcases were clearly contrary to the
evidence upon which the budget exam
iners and the Finance Committee, wno
have been working all summer, used III
fixing the tentative budget.
An example of the manner in which
the salary increases were made in the
final budget was the single item in the
Department of Plants and Structures
for ferry boat captains. Heretofore the
salaries were itenfized Yesterday ths
final budget contained the line, Thirty
captains of ferryboats for 528 months
at $132,0 600"
This is $4,000 more than the thirty
captains are G. ttinge now. Under TIL
terms of the budget the $4,000 addi-

Curran Says Hylan and
Hearst Want 7c Fare

Henry H. Curran told Columbia Un.-
versity students yesterday in an ad-
dress in Earl Hall at the university
that if Mayor Hylan were given the
privilege of remaining in City Hal four
more years the Mayor and William
Randolph Hearst could be depenucu
upon to put in effect 7cent fare.
ABOUT $50 students heard Mr.. Cur-
rams speech The. speaker was intro
duced by Professor Howard McBain,
of the School of Political Science, who
referred to Mayor Hilan as incomoe-
tent and characterized him as the ''re-
cumbent Mayor"
Mr.. Curran repeated his charges coA-
corning the alleged Shonts 7-cent fare
agreement. "Hylan was discovered in a
deal With Shonts trying to put over a
7-cent fare" he said, "Ie was trying
to fool us, but we caught him with
the goods. 1t seems that Mr.. Hylan is
greatly disturbed over this matter |
am not surprised, for the guilty are
always disturbed by the truth, ana /
told the. truth.
"a nickel is enough in New York
and am going to continue my fight
for 1t | am going to keep right on at
Mayor Hylan. If he is elected for an
other four years you may be sure that
he and Hearst will put over the Teen,
fore. What | want to know is just this:
Who is Mayor of the City of New York
-Hylan or Hearst? Do you want a
Mayor to live in New York or in Cal4-
fornia? !? It's great puzzle trying to
find who is actually Mayor of this city.
See if you can find out. am not going
to make any promises as to what /
shall do when elected two weeks hence.
No man can be on the level with him
self or with the people if he makes
promises. All he can do is to do his
best"

launch an intensive drive this week in
support of the candidacy of the Bor-

THE DELIGHTS OF BoLsHEvIsM

From Crane Co.'s Valve World.
 Lenine, the premier of Bolshevist
 Russia, expects the peasants of that
 sadly misgoyerned land to continue
 their opposition to the dictatorship ! of the proletariat" for forty years. To
 the question whether there was any in-
 tention to replace the dictatorship by
 regime of freedom, Lenine is quoted
 as saying;
 We have never spoken of liberty. We are exercising the dictatorship of the proletariat in the name of the minority because the peasant class in Russia is not yet with us. We shall continue to exercise the dictatorship until they submit"
 Again this apostle of "a new demo- cracy"-save the mark--says: We have always maintained that our vic tory cannot be secure if proletarian revolution in the west does not come to our assistance" To accomplish this the Soviet government should be willing to grant compromises and con- sessions until such time as the world revolution breaks forth"
 Thru Russian soviet newspapers We
 learn from comments on the reports of proceedings of the communist interna- tionale at Moscow, that enlightened liberalism Is the one obstacle which these communists see to the success of their project. They are more Vindic- tive in their references to progressive democracy than they are in their de- nunciation of 'tsarism'"
 A dispatch from Helsingsfors, re- ferring to the "strike situation in Rus sia," says the soviet government has decreed warning to all strikers sthat unless they return to work immediate ly they will be imprisoned for terms of from one to five years and that their families will be deprived of food cards"

Chicago High School Deans Give Per feet Lady" Instructions. <

Chicago, April 9.-Twenty-three high school deans laid down the law to the flappers they teach, yesterday.
 The law comes in a book still wet from the presses, written by Miss Fannie Smith, dean of Wendell Phil lips high school, tnd twenty-two other deans.
 According to the book, if high school girl is to be a lady she must not:
 Cross her legs any place but in the privacy of her boudoir, chew gum in public (and not very often in priv acy), have curbstone dates with her boy friends, sing ragtime, talk in the movies, toddle or rough. A society for the encouragement of coed "demurrers" also was launched today at Chicago university.
 This fraternity requires initiates to assume the following obligations: l. Never to give or offer to girls any cigarettes or chewing tobacco or cigars; hootch, moonshine, home brew or alcoholic toilet water.
 ?. Never to look when girl clam bers over a street car step.
 3. Always to hide the eyes when a girl displays more than two inches of hosiery.
 The reform wave started when Miss Ruth Hess, sophomore, wrote to the Daily Maroon, students paper, that when men object, as they do, to the frivolties of women, it is time for them to get busy and reform them. ,

best know women in French society whose names are as secret as the by laws and advice issued by the organ ization.
 The new society is known as the French Charm Club" It has just be- gun issuing mysterious book whose chapters comes out serially. It is never to reach the eyes of man until years after the death of every mem- Der.
 sI have taken hint from the American correspondence schools, 7 says the countess. "To make sure that no part of the book falls into the hands of man mail out one chapter for members of the society to read and when they finish with that they send it back to me by registered mail and send on the next chapter. Each time a member sends back her copy she renews her solemn pledge never to let the book out of her possession" "
 Only the introduction to the myster- ious love book Is public property. It is written by the countess herself tho members of the society will con- tribute to several chapters.
 Hang On to Charm, Is Advice.
 "Women of forty and over," says the preface, "you must learn how to charm your husbands if you are to keep them Nothing is easier AL ways remember that it is the woman of forty, ripe with experience in love, who most often awakes the affections of youth when love comes to youth in- tuitively. Retain your charm and you have nothing to fear from frivolous young girls"
 The love book will have chapters on the care of the complexion and the hair, how to dress attractively and how to retain youthful figure. One chapter, the countess announces, will deal with 'The Best Loved Man in Paris" a figure in real life and will recount the experiences of many wom- en, both under and over forty, who tried to capture his heart.

TAKE TIME TO HEAL A DEADLY WOIfND.

Imnatience can almost become a sin. It is anyway world vice today In every city newspaper and from every other person you see come xrouches because this, that or the ether uncomfortable fact caused by the war continues with us.
 The farmer is blamed because he feels he is still entitled to war prices. The workingman Is roasted because he sticks like leech to his abnor- mally high wage. Russia is put un- der the ban because she is still crazy xs a loon from the heat of war. The big newspaper editors spend oodles Of naoney in cables to show that peace is not here yet. The fnancier walls be- cause peace did not instantly bring back the. normal conditions of 1914. Pretty nearly all of us are entirely out of patience with the antics, world wide, of the ignorant reds and extreme radicals everywhere.
 If the average intelligent man would stop and think few minutes he'd realize that the supposedly un- natural conditions which are world wide today are only natural, after all. When great storm has deluged a field, you don't go out and plough the next minute. You are lucky if you can take the old blow thru it two or three days later; it is expected, and you take it as only natural If fire destroys factory, the hands do not 20 to work at their machines the next day, as if nothing had happened! no- body expects them to. The natural thing is to rebuild tEe factory first. If a great flood washes out mile of railroad track nobody expects the trains to be running smoothly over the spot in few hours. It takes time to make repairs.
 ] There has been a great human storm: terrible human fire; cata- tlysmic human washout. The signing of a peace paper did not make actual peace. If full peace comes in 10 years after such a fearful conflict the world will be lucky. If farmers and workingmen and industry and com merce and finances settle down meas urably in 10 years after the conclu- sion of such great war, we will all be very lucky, indeed.
 < AND ONLY TWO AND A HALF YEARS OF IT HAS PASSEDi
 Be patient and do your part to- wards peace and normalcy. It will nll come in good time, and quicker if we be tolerant, good-natured and in- dustrtons ourselves.
