FULL AMOUNT ASSURED, Mayor Also Stops Cutting Off} of Efficiency Staff Appropriation. Mayor Mitchel has decided to veto the action of the Board of Aldermen in cutting the appropriation for free public school lectures from $148,000 to $74,000. The Aldermen, in reducing by half the amount to be expended for this popular educational ald to the pegple, which as inaugurated trough the efforts of The Evening World many years ago, alleged ad. ‘vancement of the interests of economy. The Mayor can see no economy in ‘cutting the free lecture appropriation in two. He will send a message to the Board setting forth his views on the @natter, Inasmuch as the motion to talice the appropriation passed the Board by a bare majority, and a ‘two-thirds vote will be necessary to pass it over the Mayor's veto, it is quite safe to say the free lecture course wil] not be interfered with next year. The Mayor has also decided to weto the cancellation of the ap- propriation of $36,000 for the Bfficiency Staff in the office of the Commissioner of Accounts. He knows something about that office and the work of the Efficiency Staff and will insist that this branch of the service be continued. —_—_————__— MRS.
