Stewart Browne, President of the association, ad- mitted “there were never so many landlords in Florida and California as no They have never gotten along so well as now.” But with this fact granted, Mr. Browne went on to excoriate the tenants, adding: “We've got to get something in the bill that will stop the tenant from making the defense of unreasonable rental, regardless of what the former rent wa: Thoroughly in acoord with the spirit of the meet- tng, Mr. Ernest N.

Mr. Hedley may have a case for the continued use of wooden cars on lightly built elevated struc- tures. But he is merely absurd when he tries to establish that they are as good or as safe as steel cars, ‘Ne A VEST-POCKET CHARTER. OMPTROLLER CRAIG submitted yesterday to the Charter Revision Committee his proposed Home Rule Charter for the Cily of New York, In brevity, this suggested instrument makes good its author’s promise. It is only a little over twenty- eight pages. Its preamble reads like the Declaration of Independence. In 7,000 words it turns the city, so far as local affairs are concerned, into a self- governing entity, legislating for itself through a Mu- nicipal Assembly composed of the Board of Esti- mate and the Board of Aldermen, with complete power over local utilities, franchises, rates, &c. Comptroller Craig certainly goes the whole hog. : Under the Craig charter the Mayor could be re- moved only by the Municipal Assembly (two-thirds vote)—likewise the Comptroller, President of the Board of Aldermen, the Borough Presidents or the Corporation Counsel. Albany would have no power to fix salaries of persons in this city’s service. The city would be authorized “to exercise all of the pow- ers necessary; requisite or proper for the govern- At ‘It ‘Again! _ Constant, By ieee Cassel -Liberators —or— Treland By Bartlett Draper Copyriatt, 1022, (New York World) PERN be 1, — THE KING WHO CALLED THE FIRST NATIONAL CIVIL ASSEMBLY. When Roderick O'Conor became High King of Ireland in 1166 he dem- onstrated the capacity of the Irish Frinces and people for self-govern- ment by calling the first national civil assembly in the history of Ireland. Of this historic substitution of law for force In national affaira\we have a written record in the “Annals of the Four Masters,’’ a work compiled from older authorities in the Francis- can Monastery of Donegal in the seventeenth cerftury, In this original Irish Parliament both lay and ecclesiastical chiefs par- ticipated. At this meeting, as the Annals record, “many good resolu- tions” were passed’ “respecting ver- cration for churches and clerics and control of tribes and territories, 0 that women used to traverse Ireland alone, and a restoration of his prey was made by the chief of Offaly. The significance of the event ts hus pointed out in the Annals: They (the Princes and chiefs) af- terward separated in peace and amity, without battle or controversy, or of complaining: ther at ot the sequenc ‘ ment and administration of its local and municipal these, chiefs, “with thelr “My whole idea is to prevent Municipal matters, except any matter solely affecting State atk OrCanor ia Lie? allied ane I Justices from going through our bills of ex: affairs.” * * * other assembly, a sort of arbitration nses vouch se court in which he sat as arbitrator in Denses and thfowing out this or that voucher The State would retain little but the comfort that: f controversy which fifty youre care and determining our net income.

The landlords are still actuated by the same sentiments. Legislators need only to consult their constituents to find out that the demand for rent law extension is more vigorous now than ever. The housing shortage is not over, as every tenant knows. The landlords are as rapacious as evgr. Protection through the courts is still essential. which encumbers the present charter. This separa- tion’ thoroughly recommends itself. Obviously the first thing that would have’ to be sought under the Craig charter would be a big boost of Aldermanic standards. No such responsi- bility put upon the municipal legislative body would be conceivable unless New York's Board of Alder- men became something very different from what it has been.
