The Mayor expresses confidence tn the co-operation of the Tammany Al- dermen, The Mayor told the Aldermen that when his administration took office in January, 1914, "it was confronted with @ serious financial condition. The cost of running the government had been increased, he sald, greater rate than the population. Bud- Kot appropriations had increased from .03 per capita in 1906 to apita in 1928, he charged. the per capita funded debt hs ad steadily rising from $148.20 In 1906 to $186.66 in 1918, “while the per capita assessed valuation of taxable property ‘was gradually falling.” In fourteen ra the budget has wn from 0,000 to nearly $193,000,000, the gross funded debt has grown from $360,000,000 to_more than $1,000,000,000 Jand’ the net funded debt has grown ‘from $257,000,000 to $836,000,000, he says, ‘peaking of economics in his own departments, the Mayor says: “The decrease in the appropri to the Mayor's departments for 1918 amounts to nearly $1,000,000, Decreases of about $600,000 were made in the appropria- tions to the Department of Finance and the Borough Presidents and the other departments under the Board of Estimate, Although the Board of Education requested an Increase of $2,500,000 in the appropriation for 1916, the Board of Estimate felt convin that a reorganization of certain ad- ministrative methods of the school syatem in accordance with specific suggestions which It then made to the Board of Education would render unnecessary an Increase in the 1916 appropriation over that for 1915. Ac- cordingly, the Board of Education was allowed the same amount of money that it had received in 1915." Referring to the direct Stat, in his message, the Mayor say: total of the budget for 1916 for city and county purposes is less than the total for 1915. The total which the taxpayers must pay for 1916, however is materially larger than for 1915 ‘This te due to the fact that the S of New York levied this year a di upon the counties of the State Now York City’s share of this direct tax 975,021.78. It is this tax ponsible for the entire amount of the increar in the 1016 budget over the 1915 budget. In this matter the administration has no dis- cretion; the sum to be included in the budget. It cannot, therefore be held accountable in any way for the tremendously increased burden which the taxpayers must henr in 1916," tax ‘The MeAneny to Quit Jan. 20, Aldermanic President George Mo- Aneny to-day said that he expected to sever his connection with the olty gov- ernment on Jan, 20, This is the first time he has announced a definite date for retivement.

A PREPAREDNESS CALL.| fem it Progressives Ready to Bolt to Republicans if Nominee of Old Party Suits Them, CHICAGO, Jan. 11.—Calling on the Progressive National Committee | above party. to cast aside all purely partisan con- siderations, Theodore Roosevelt to-~ day wired a plea for preparedness to the committees as it mot In con- ference prior to selecting a date for the party’s national convention. Roosevelt's mossage declared the country i# facing a great crisis and the nation has fallen far short of its duties fer the past eighteen months. The message makes no mention of Roosevelt as a candidate. The telegram, which was read to the committeemen and scores of oth- or Progresaive leaders at a conference preliminary to the executive meeting of the committee, was as follows: “I send you my hearty greetings. We as @ country are facing a great world crisis in which, for the last eighteen months, this nation has fallen far short of its duty, both to its own people and to the law-abiding and justice loving nations of mankind. There is a crying need that we shall cast aside ali purely partisan con- siderations and disregard all but the vital issues affecting the national life and shall stri¥e whole-heartedly for a sound Americanism, which shall in- sist that every man who ls within our borders shall be an American and nothing else. “We must do justice to our own people at home; we must insist that they have justice when abroad. We must insist upon the most thorough- going preparedness to protect our rights against all possible attacks by any aggressor. Such preparednoss ts the best guarantes of honorable peace.
