 MAN OVER SUNDAY
New Yorker Frozen to Death.
 Low Marks Registered

New York, Dec. 29.-With warm CT weather predicted for today, New York city and the states along the eastern scaboard were still in the grip of icy temperatures early this morning. One victim, and unidenti- fled man of about 45, was claimed by the cold here yesterday.
 Upstate and in New England there were little indications of immediate abatement in the record cold snap of this winter.
 ,The thermometer here fell to 12 above zero yesterday morning and hovered around i5 degrees for most of the day making it the coldost December 2S of 50 years, with two exceptions.
 The mountainous sections around Saranac Lake, N. r., registered a temperature Of 26 below zero at one time during the day, and a lower point was reached in other Adiron- dack districts, with indications of further continued extreme cold for today.
 For the first time in years there is an ice jam, estimated to be 16 feet thick, in the Niagara river be- low the falls, at this period of the winter. It extends from Horseshoe Falls almost to Ontario. Ice also covers the wharves at Lewist on, l Queenston and Niagara. The St. Lawrence river, more than a mile and half in width, Is completely frozen across in many sections, ac- cording to information from Odgens- burg, N. Y., where the thermometer fell to 20 degrees below zero yester- i day.
 Boston with a lowest temperature of seven above zero was almost the warmest place in New England ycs- terday. with Lewiston, Maine, re- porting below, Woodsvile, N. H.. IS below and the hill districts of Vermont 20 degrees below.

PLAYING SAFE WITH BOND ISSUES

bOND ISSt Us
 Considering the large number of uamprored streets in certain sec tons Of New Britain, and the fact that all bond issues authorized by the legislature have been foatod, it Is clear that authority for ad- ditional issues will have to be ob- tained If work Is 10 continue next spI4ng.
 The unfortunate thing about civic Improvements Is that they cost money. Another unfortunate thing Is that there rarely is sufficient ready cash on hand to pay for even the most modest of suoh improve ments on the pay-as-you-go plan. Nine times out of ten bonds have to be issued. In the course of years the bonds have to be paid of, and the money must come from taxes.
 Much has been said and written the past year or so regarding the failure of municipalities 10 reduce expenditures in anything like the proportion instituted by the federal government. This, however, is only partly true. The federal debt reached unprecedented heights as result of the war, while the debts Of most cities did not reach unpre- cedcntad heights, They are higher than they formerly were, but never went up in anything approaching the ratio of the federal debt, Con- scquon''y they cannot come down as in ike proportion.
 A theory about public improve msnes is that through their life they should pay for themselves by dut of inc increased taxing value Of property affected. Yet this the ory does not appear to work out in ali cases. If it did the tax rate would not show a tendency to in- crease greatly through the issuance of bonds for public improvements.
 If bonds were issued, for instance, to improve the streets and "roads' in the northwest section of the city, how long would it take for that section to build up and hence provide sufficient taxable property to pay for the bonds? It would take many years - probably longer than the life of the bonds. Even tually. however, the improved prop erty would follow the improved streets.
 The logical way out Of the dis- heulty would seem to be to con- struct such improvements a little al g time, following definite pro gram over term of years. This would not only be playing safe but would be also playing sane. But the additional difficulty presents itself that throughout a term of years there may be a change, or several changes, ir the city administra- ton, and a program adopted by one administration is not always fol- lowed by another. There are so many angles to the problem that citizens will be perfectly willing to permit Chairman Hall ard his CO., members Of the board ot finance and taxation to work c"t a reason- able scheme.
