Mayor Favors Change
 On Tax Collections

Although Mayor A. M. Paonessa was not in attendance at the last session of the charter revision com mittee at which changes in the sys- tenn of collecting taxes was dis cussed, he is heartily in favor or any movement that will save the city interest payments on money that must be borrowed under the present scheme of collections until tax money begins to come in.
 The fiscal year now opens on April 1 while taxes do not become due until July 1. During the months of April. May and June, the ctty's business is conducted and bills are paid out of money secured from To- cal banks on short term notes. The interest on this money is big item.
 It has been suggested that taxes be made due at the opening Of the fiscal year with bills made out In two accounts, one half payable at once and the other half at the ex" piration of six months. It was also suggested that tax on merchandise and personal property be made payable at the opening of the tls- cal year with property tax payable as under the present system. Mayor Paonessa feels there is merit in both plans and be favors a change. he said today.

PICK ALL.STAR
 NATIONAL TEAM
Vance and Grimes onsidered Best Pitchers; HOrnsby Chosen

New York, Dec. 2.--An all-star team selected from players receiv- ing the highest votes in the National Leagues Most Valuable Player Con- test. shows that the Giants, Robins and Reds each have three repre- sentatires, Pittsburgh and Chicago two each. and St. Louis one.
 The selections include staff of f,ve pitchers headed by Arthur (Dazzy) Vance, Brooklyn mound ace who. 1t was announced yester- day, was tho leagues most valuable performer for 1924. distinction which carries with 1t a cash award of s1,000. Vance was the only pitcher named among the first ten" by the committee of baseball writ ers, which decided the contest, and his team mate, Burleigh Grimes, was next among the twlrlers given recognition.
 The rival values 10 a team of a regular player and a pitcher long have aroused keen discussion, but the committee decided that Vances brilliant mound work, which was chiefly responsible for lifting Brook lyn to a contending position and enabling the club to finish in second place, was more of an asset than the terrific batting of Hornsby, who led his league for the fifth successive year with mark of .424, the high est in modern annals, and was char acterized bw President Heydlcr of the National League as the great est batsman of all time"
 In making their decision, the writers followed a precedent set in the American league, wrich placed its individual crown on the head of Walter Johnson, veteran pitching star of the worlds champion Wash ington Americans, in preference to Eddie Collins. White Sox second baseman.
 The all-star National league team selected from the results of the bal loting follows:
 First Base, Kelly, New York.
 Second Base. Hornsby, St, Louis.
 Shortstop. Maranville, Pittsburgh.
 Third Base, Frisch, New York.
 Left Field, Wheat, Brooklyn.
 Center Field, Roush, Cincinnati.
 Right Field, Young, New York.
 Utility, Bressler, Cincinnati.
