It will be revived at| next Monday's council meeting. Erickson, Tindall and Mrs. Miracle have pledged themselves to vote for the pass plan. John E. Carroll, the| original advocate of the weekly pass | system in the council, is also a strong supporter of the pass. Mra Henry Landes believes in the prin. ciple of the pass, she sayn, but does not like vote for it unless the street railway department author. izes it. COHEN HAS PLAN SIMILAR TO PASS | A. Lou Cohen has a plan similar | to the pass plan, which he believes | will eliminate the abuses of the| pass. It is the 16 ticket for a dollar plan. Cohen strongly favors the pass idea, which offers greater use of the street railways without any increase in cost of operation, but/ believes the excessive use of week- ly passes by merchants and delivery | concerns would be eliminated by the ticket plan. With only five votes needed to pass the, ordinance providing for the use of a weekly pass and with four votes definitely in favor of it, coun- cilmen back of the plan are confi- dent of its success. Mayor Brown | has declared he will sign the pass| bill on the theory that the council now has the solution of the railway problem in its hands and that he will not interfere.

Brown de- clared in his annual message to the city council, delivered at Monday's session. Copies of the address are in the hands of the printer and will be distributed, the mayor said, to anyone interested. Comment on the condition of the city’s finances shows a reduction of $663,964.28 during the past year. The reduction, the mayor said, was made despite an increase, of 4.76 mills in the tax levy, which was necessary, due to the decreasefl assessed valuation placed upon property by the county auditor. The light and water departments were warmly praised by the mayor, and the record of Corporation Coun- sel T. J. L. Kennedy was heartily indorsed. Under the 8 1-3-cent fare in 1922 the street raflway returned a profit of $781,062. The street car problem depends upon what the future will bring, the mayor said, “The system was purchased at a price double its value and the con- tract must be rewritten.” The engineering. department and the streets and“ sewer department | were complimented on their records, The library was operated in 1922 for $269,989.30 or only 75 cents per capita, DANCE WITH THE ELKS LESCHT PA 10N Every Tuesday Night en Andirno: ONY DOLLAR A COPPLE METROPOLITAN TWeert’® JUNE 5 and 6 Ler ‘Tomorroy Ma LEN scn ERT Presents MR.
