PROMINENT FIREMEN
IT HOPE BANQUET
Alarm of Fire Turned in While
Company Was on Way
to Auditorium
Prominent firemen, city officials anil
citizens joined with the members of
the Hope Fire Company last night in
celebrating the centennial anniversary
of the company at a banquet held in
I Chestnut Street Auditorium.
With the Commonwealth band
heading the procession the members
of the Hope company escorted the
guests from the Ifope engine house to
Chestnut street. En route red fire was
burned and as an added sensation the
alarm of fire from Box No. 42, Second
und Mulberry street, came in Just at
the time the procession was turning
j into Market street at Market Square.
I The. procession moved close to the
I curb and as the fire apparatus passed
there was a desire on the part of
many to get busy, too, but the three
taps came in shortly and ended the
excitement. As each guest marched
into the hall he was handed a card on
which to write his name. These cards
were collected later and will be put
into a souvenir book and placed
among the archives at the Hope en
gine house.
Following a prayer by the chaplain,
the Rev. Harry Nelson Bassler, the
guests got busy with tho feast. Mau
rice Russ was the caterer. During
the banquet tho band, under the lead
ership of Fred C. Weber, gave a de
lightful concert. The toastmaster, A.
H. Kreidler, president of the com
pany, read letters of regret from
George S. Kroll, of York, president of
the State Firemen's Association, and
others.
Then came speeches by tho chap
lain, the Rev. Harry Nelson Bassler,
Mayor John K. Royal, Trvin A. Ilahne,
Philadelphia, financial secretary of tliw
State association, ex-Mayor Meals and
others.

p. rent opposition of Secretary Mc-
Ai 00, of the Treasury Department, and
iSecretary Houston, of the Department
of Agriculture, to the proposal of
New York bankers for establishment
here of a regional reserve bank of
overshadowing size, the witnesses who
| appeared at to-day's hearing of the
| Federal reserve organization commit-
I tee liisNted almost, unanimously that
I such a bank was necessary.
From the long list of New York's
leading financiers who have appeared
before tho committee one conspicuous
name was missing. It was that of
Gecrge F. Baker, who was perhaps the
closest associate of the elder J. P.
Mcigan, and who is a director of more
important corporations than any other
man in the country. Mr. Baker's pub
lic appearences have been rare, and
instead of coming before the commit
tee In person, he was representd to
day by his son, George F. Baker, Jr.
vice-president of the First National

Making Up the Budget
The procedure for making up the
budget this year will differ from that
of previous years. Heretofore the city
clerk issued a call to the various de
partmental heads for the estimates on
the amounts necessary to conduct their
work for the year. This was after the
general appropriation ordinance had
been offered in skeleton form and
turned over to the subflnance commit
tee. The estimates were then pared
according to the amount of money that
would have been available.
Under the form of government the
Councllmen who are the heads of the
departments will submit their own es
timates and thresh out the general ap
propriation ordinance themselves.
Then the mill rate will be fixed, with
reference to the re"enues and the ex
penditures.
City Commissioner Bowman's sal
ary has already practically been saved
by the dWnlssal of the superintendent
of the department and in other ways.
Jn fact he has saved considerably
more than this in his own department.
And following the usual custom It is
probable that his salary will be paid
from the departmental revenues.
Tim ItiHlg-ctA
In addition to his salary, the budget
for the department of public safety
will include the water, health with
the plumbing Inspection, building in
spection, telephone service, city elec
trician anil street and office lighting

items. The maintenance for the park
and fire departments will be Included
in Commissioner Taylor's budget, while
Commissioner l,ynch will have to pre
pare for the expenses Incident to the
street department. It is understood
that in view of the additional mileage
of streets Air. Lynch will ask for more
funds for that particular department.
Commissioner Gorgas' appropriations
will Include the city treasury, the con
trollershlp, collections of license fees,
for the board of tax revision and his
own clerk. The mayor, of course, will
look after the sealer of weights and
measures and the police departments.
Council sat for the first time yester
day afternoon as a board of tax revi
sion and appeals. The meeting was
held just after council meeting and
was called largely for the purpose of
considering the increasing of the valu
ation of the Board of Trade bui.dlng.
At the 1913 triennial assessment the
building was valued at 142,330,' but
upon appeal from a committee the
value was reduced to $25,000. This
was on the ground that the building
was usual for quasi-public purposes.
Since the abolishing of the Board of
Trade and the sale of the building to
the Commonwealth Trust Company,
the purposes In question falls—and at
yesterday's meeting the valuation was
put back back again to $42,330.
