Hy1an Battle CRY
To Be ''New York
For New Yorkers!''
Mayor Tries 1t Out Up in

Says He Has Plans for
Beautiful New School

speeches last night. One was before
the Hylan League of Washington
Heights, at Broadway and 146th Street.
Inc second was at meeting of the
Ridgewood Community Council at
Woodbine Street, Brooklyn
The Mayors Manhattan address con-
tanned what he characterized as the
Rallying cry that should summon
every man and woman from every one
of the five boroughs." The cry, which
slogan, is:
New York for New Workers"
The Mayors speech on Washington
Heights follows:
Il have been informed that a very
substantial portion of your large mem
bership is made up of Republicans. 1t
seems to me that this fact speaks
eloquently of your citizenship. That
you place loyalty to your city above
narrow party partisanship is most
ccmmendable. Every New Yorker
ought to love New York first and party
afterward
"New York for New Workers. is a
slogan good enough for every man and
woman who enjoys the countless bene-
it's and opportunities of this wonde rful
municipality. 1t is rallying cry that
should summon citizens from every one
of the five boroughs. 1t is a cry Of
warning that should sound from Mon
tauk to Lake Erie and spread terror to
those professional politicians from up
state who year by year seek to de-
prive New York of its inherent right to
manage its own affairs.
home rule for New York is one of
the broadest and strongest planks in
the platform of the present city admin.
Istration. You ladies and gentlemen
who are here tonight have wisely de-
clded that 1t is of sufficient merit for
you to stand on. 1t is good enough for
any man or woman to stand on, no mat
ter with what party he or she may be
affiliated
"lf | give you no other message to-
night let this thought remain, that the
love for your city should be para
mount to any fancied obligation to
party in this campaign.
- of course, have long known that
one Of the principal problems confront
ing residents of Washington Heights
nas been the education of your children.
rms problem was not new one when
my administration took office. We have
appropriated much money to relieve
conditions, and even now there are in
the Offices Of the Board of Education
completed plans and specifications for
the beautiful high school soon to be
erected III your fast-growing com
munity."

The finance and budget committee
OF the Board of Estimate OCCUPIED
most of its session yesterday after
noon IN considering the budget re-
quests Of the Board of Education for
1922. Mayor Hylan announced at the
start that the deficit of $4,000 900 in
THIS years educational budget would
be made up, but did not say how it
would be done. 1t was evident that
there was no disposition to neglect the
requests of the school authorities for
next year. The committee appeared
eager TO adopt tentatively the report
OF the examiners which called for
about S2,0o00O0 more than the amount
requested by the Board of Education
Tor this year-which they received
minus the $27,OOO,O00.
George j. Ryan, vce-president of
the Board of Education, and Mrs.
Emma l.. Murray were present as mem
bers of the board DR.. William L.
Ettinger, superintendent of Schools,
also attended the hearing. The dis
cussion was limited to careful re-
view, item by item, of the features
which the examiners felt should be
eliminated. The committee showed
disposition to agree with the examin-
ers; but as was made clear, the action
Of the committee is not conclusive, the
whole matter being subject to review
before the Board of Estimate when
public hearings leading up to the, adop-
ton of the tentative budget are held
next week aa,
The request made by the Board of
Education for 1921 was S87,S23, 800
For next year the board requests $780,
SO2,399 The examiners recommended
that $S9, ,463, ,6s2 be allowed for the COM
ing year, the difference being disagree
ment over features that the examiners
held were not properly charged to city
funds.
Comptroller Craig submitted the
1922 request for the Finance Depart
ment, which was $45,574 below that of
1921. The total request for 1922 was
$1,956,86l. The dc cpartment was al
lowed this year $1,97O,69l. The ex-
aminers recommended for next year
$1,S76,S49.
The examiners cut almost 100000
from the 1922 request of Bird S. Coler,
Commits ssioner of Public Welfare. The
department was allowed S8,201 ,147 this
year. missioner Coler requested
$s,535,703 for 1922. The examiners
recommended S7,566,955.

passed in 1905 forbidding life insur-
ance companies from making further
investments in stocks, and requiring
them to sell their stocks within five
years, certain companies, notably the
Mutual Life, are still holding many
OF these stocks after fifteen years
through legislation obtained on the
recommendation of the State Superin-
tendent of Insurance.
If these companies, he pointed out,

AS the result of this condition, which
bears so pertinently on the housing
problem. he said, the committee plans
to ask the Legislature to enact laws
preventing fire insurance companies
from investing in wild cat' stocks, and
requiring that minimum of 45 per
cent of deposits in banks and a reason
able percentage of the funds Of insur-
ance companies be invested in bonds
and mortgages on real estate.
Where banks and insurance COM

with the greater amount of safety, Mr..
Untermyer declared.

CHICAGO, Oct. T. The mysterious
hanglngs of two fourteen-year-old boys
in less than week offered the authori-
ties to-day a problem.
While investigation Of the death Of
Samuel Burlington, found dead in a
closet Of his home last Saturday, was

was presented last night when the body
of Edward Knaus was found hanging
in the basement Of his home.
The Burlington youth was an expert
in knot tying, while the Knaus bow al
most daily played with lassoes. the
police were told. In neither case, so
far as the police could learn, was there
a motive for suicide.

Most all did we'll on examination.
But as the work is growing
