The Mayor's action will upset the calculations of the $5,000 to $10, 000 a year Tammany fat-job holders! who were figuring on salary raises greater in many instances than the actual pay of the underpaid clerks. In his veto message to the Board of Aldermen Mayor Hylan writes:' “Upon reflection 1 am oenvinced that @ More equitable distribution cun be made of the propoved sale ary increases by a Modification af the sebedule adopted by the Board of Eatimate and Apperttennrem on the 8th @ay of Ruby, 7926, and in order sirat the sibject may receive further consideration by the Roam of atimate, I return here- with the resolution of the Board of Aldermen (Int.
