NEW YORK, November 11.-Miss
Sarah Bleakley, the Oldest school
teacher in the city, once marshaled
$500 pupils from flames to safety, but
she couldn't save her own life in a
gas stove blaze.
While she was cooking in her upper
East Side apartment, her clothes caught
fire last night and she collapsed from
burns and smoke. She died in hos
pital.
Three of her pets persisted with her.
A Pomeranian dog died of suffocation
and two cats were trapped in the blaz-
ing kitchen. A second pomeranian and
another cat were in the front of the
hoG5e and were saved.
Miss Bleakley, who was 20 and had
been a teacher for 40 years, was given
a medal by newspaper for her heroism
in fire in 1908. Smelling smoke while
in class, she quietly wrote a note to
the principal and the school fire drill
was sounded. sending the $500 boys

Government COST
SEEN AT HIGH PEAK
Business Farley at Cleveland
Told States Debts Mount
to $1,247,O 900, 900.
BY the Associated Press.

! BY the Associated Press.
CLEVELAND, November 1.-THE
constantly mounting cost Of government
and the causes behind it were scruti-
nized at the National Conference on
Government today.
AS an example of the increase in
government expenditures, c. E. Rightor
o. Detroit told the gathering OF 500
mayors, city managers and municipal
leaders that the total indebtedness of
all the States had increased 725 per
cent in q quarter of century.
In 1905 the States indebtedness was
l50,000,000, Of $1.74 per capita, he
said, whereas in 1925 it was 81 par, 0OO,-
900, or 5000 per capita.
Easy to Add Expenses.
This increase was blamed in part by
Robert N. Goodrich, executive secretary
OF the Taxpayers League of Duluth, TO
the feeling that 1t comes easier to add
expenses than TO pare budgets.
In the granting of new services or
additional salaries, officials find that
they incur no ennlity except the very
abstract and remote diSapproval of the
impersonal taxpayers, whereas should
they turn down the request of the in
dividual, they are almost sure to meet
criticism and perhaps hostility. This
more imam anything else, I believe, has
contributed to the cost of government"
Other Causes Assigned.
Choosing of political supporters for
appointiye offices, public salary Sched-
ules, the present set-up Of financial
procedures and lack of political philos-
ophy were other causes advanced by
Goodrich.
Automobile competition and traffic
congestion have given street car COM
panies their most serious problem in
history, James M. Welsh, assistant to
the president Of the Cleveland Railway
Co., reported. Whereas formerly the
problem of the management was to sup
ply q service that would satisfy a cli-
entele clamoring for more traction lines,
now have to find the customers for
their cars, he said.
To this END technicians have devoted
themselves to creating faster and
quieter trolleys to compete with the au-
tomobile and to training employees in
