CITY'S TAX RATE
MAY GO OVER $2
Increased Demands of Depart
ments and Unpaid Bills Seem
to Require Advance
PARING PROCESS IS. BEGUN
With Mnyor Smith silent on'thc sub
ject ot the 1020 tnx rate, members ot
Councils' finance committee freely ml
mit that at least a twenty-cent increase
over tho present city rate of $1.75 will
be needed to carry departments through
the coming twelve months. This will
be independent of the increase allowed
for educational purposes.
This estimate, they say, is low and
based upon the fact that home buyers
will face additional tax burdens be
cause Inflated prices paid by victims of
lent gougers will have the effect of
forcing up valuations all over tho city.
Chairman Gaffney, of Councils'
finance committed declines to commit
himself qn the probability of a tax rate
increase in advance of a study of the
department budgets now in tho hands
of Mayor Smith. Controller Walton is
likewise silent. Others who have seen
the startling totals and who arc fa
miliar witli deficits ajd mandamus needs
are less reticent.
Added to the present city tax rate of
$1.75 is the sixty rents for school pur
poses. An increase of ten crpts in the
school tax rate wos agreed upon by an
amendment to the school code last
spring, and this additional burden will
be felt next year for the first time.
93 Rate Possible
The grand total, unless material cuts
are made in the final demands for the
various departments, would require a
combined city and county rate of be
tween 52.75 and $."?. Thpso sums arc
' so unusual and excessive that efforts arc
now being made to bring the whole of
the city increase to within twenty cents'
over the $1.75. '-The success or fnilurc
of the scheme lies in the care that will
be exercised in the Sparing" process
now under1 way.
Tn the probdble event ot a third in
crease in the' tax rate under the Smith
administration the reason ghen will be
the increases planned for policemen ntul
firemen and other classes nt city em
ployes. No reference will be made to
the fact that millions arc needed to
make up this year's deficiencies and to
provide for mandamus jtcms long ig
nored. An increase of twenty cents in the
municipal tnx rate will provide nbout
" S3.O00.O0O additional income to meet
outstanding obligations and provide for
pay increases. This addition, if it is
finally decided upon, will give the city
total revenues of about $51,000,000 tu
pay the debts of the present administra
tion, which wiir be included in next
year's bills, nnd to provide for current
expenses duriug 1020.
Consider Safely Budget
Daily conferences nre being held by
Controller Walton, Mnyor Smith nnd
Chairman Gaffney over the various de
partmental budgets. The most impor
tant one being considered is that ot the
Department of Public Safety.
Director Wilson is asking for more
than $4,000,000 over his record-break
ing figures of the present year, tor
3020 he wants $14,0,V,,Crt2.24. Ho is
asking $8,27S.040 for the police bureau
and $3,208,440 for the fire bureau. lie
wants 500 more patrolmen nnd general
increases bringing their salary basis to
$1400 a year for first year men nnd
JjllfiOO a year for the men now receiving
$3.50 a day. These figures nre lower
than. the proposed scale for Xcw York,
which ranges from $i:'..r0 to $IS00.
The director asks $200 morn for eacli
man in tho fire bureau. Chairman Gaff
ney and Mayor Smith arc bolh pledged
to Increases and these cstimntes arc
likely to stand. n
Other udusunl items for which money
must be provided include $2,000,000 to
cover a planned temporary loan to pay
old bills and $2,500,000 for manda
muses which aro now outstanding.

County Body Adopts Resolution Say
ing Ireland Is Mistreated
The opening session of the biennial
convention of the Philadelphia county
branch of the Ancient Order of, Hiber
nians was held last night iu the audi
torium ot the A. O. H. clubhouse, 1000
North Rroad street. President P. J.
McGovern presided. He announced the
divisions had reported the receipt of
$20,000 in contributions (o the Irish
freedom fund.
A lengthy resolution offered by John
O'Dea, national secretary of the order,
was passed unanimously. After ex
pressing tho "conviction that the violent
repression of representative govern
ment" in Ireland "vitally concerns the
cause of icprcscntntic government
everywhere." and declaring It to be the
"duty ot free citizens to' extend their
active aid to the victims if armed injus
tice." the resolution opposes- the "ad
hesion of nm1 covernment to the fo-
called covenant of nations unless the .
light of self 'determination is explicitly!
giinrnnteed by reservations," It pledges i
assistance "to the cause of Ireland" I
until it is "vindicated by complete in i
dependence." It also extends the greet
ings of 17,000 members to "President,
Knmon De Vnlera and calls upon them
to make preparations for taking part in '
the meetings scheduled in connection ,
with his visit to Philadelphia on Octo
ber 1.
LEGION' NEARING GOAL

The 20,000 mark, the approximate
goal of the American Legion member
ship campaign in this olty, is sure to
be passed during the week, according to
Itomnin C. Hntisrick, -eeretary of the
Philadelphia county organization.

West Philadelphia last night. They

Giiffney for the last six cm-s
has represented Congressman Varc's j jji
home ward, the Twenty-sixth, in the g

of the three nominees for a small Conn i S
ell from the First Senatorial district. jg
He, more than muy other man, is ie-jg
sponsible for the city's finances ns they J!

With the advent of the Smith admin- I
istration Mr. Gnffney was chosen tojS

an honor vainly sought by older nnd E

One of the first moves made by Mr J
Gaffney was 19 throw open to the pub- ?

committee, behind closed doors, had been
accustomed to deal out the city's in
come. "I have always stood for open dis
cussion of finances nnd city mutters gen
erally." said Mr. Gitfiicy todny.
"Things must be done in the open or
I will have nothing to do with them.

"DRY," THEY SAIL FOR ITALY
-
Prohibition Prompts Many to Leave
Country, Says Report
Prohibition, it was said today, was
the real reason 1200 Italians sailed yes
terday from Philadelphia for Italy with
the savings of years.
When tho Italians went aboard the
Caserta they 'made immediate search
for the wineroom. There they were able
to buy large glasses of wine, white or
red, fer ten cents. And they lost no
timo in buying. As they drank, 'they
spoke the Italian equivalent of:
"This is the life."
"This hits the right spot."
After each observayon, all Joined in
a chorus of "good, good, good."
For they were all very dry.
A well-known Italian raid that there
was no doubt that prohibition in this
country was causing the Italians to go
back to Eurorf.
"They are fond of wine," he said,
"and they miss it when it is kept from
them."

Two Clover Days
THURSDAY and FRIDAY
To-morrow will be the first of two very notable Clover Days. We have a collection
ol Clover Specials that will attract thousands of customers, and the sum total of the
savings effected by Clover Day shoppers will be many thousands of dollars. We shall
have for the two days
About Nine Hundred Different Lots of
Merchandise at Clover Day Prices
Of these, somewhat more than 300 lots are expected to be sold out on the first day;
nearly 400 additional lots are reasonably sure to last throughout the two days, while
200 different lots will be held for the second day only. This arrangement insures equally
great variety and values for both days.
THE FOLLOWING LISTS contain only about ONE-SIXTH of the Clover Specials.
Every one of these and four times as many more will be marked at SUBSTANTIAL RE
DUCTIONS from regular prices. Look for the Four-leaf Clover Signs, each of which
shows the regular price and the Clover Day price.
Again we ask that you help us to avoid congention on these days of wonderful
values by CARRYING SMALL PARCELS, if convenient to do so.
And please remember that we cannot promise to fill telephone orders for Clover
Specials.
