Chairman Woodward, of the House' Appropriations Committee, when asketl about this determination of lawmakers < To get money for new buildings for : many institutions, ignoring the Boardj of Charities, said that from his observa tion from what he had heard mem ' bers of the House say the average leg islator does not consider that it is the province of the State Board of Par dons to estimate what the State reve nues will be, and that the Board had no right to say what amounts should l •be appropriated or withheld. "The average legislator," said Chairman Woodward, "believes that it : i« the duty of the State Board of Ohari ties to visit all institutions getting money from the State, in order to as certain conditions, whether anything is needed, whether the institutions are being conducted properly and such oth er information as will look to the care i and treatment of inmates, but in the i matter of appropriations it s insisted that the Board has nothing to say. "However, the information gath ers! by the Board, and its recoinmenda- 1 tions have been of great assistance to j me in making up the schedule of ap propriations. for I know that the Board knows what it is talking about. I shall endeavor to confrom to its recommen dations as far as possible."

The Mayor maintained that the Republicans have failed to prove their contention that "improvement work, whic4i would give relief to the unemployed, could not le i gallv be done pow." The Mayor was | pointed to by the Republicans as the j one who opeued the question of getting 1 work for the city's unemployed and ' that it is obligatory on his part to find j a way whereby they can be put to j work. Commissioners in a Wrangle The Republicans at all timed said they are in fnvor of relieving the unein 'ploved. but they said the Mayor's reso lution on that subject was too general and could not lie carried out in its pres ent shape. , "If you thought it wasn't feasible, why didn't you defeat it?" asked the Mayor. " Because you did not openly sanc tion an amendment which we proposed ; and which really would have been the , plausible solution," said Commissioner Taylor. "But you could have amended it, just as you have done with other legis lation," returned the Mayor. • • True, but it was your measure. You opened the question, and I thought it was up to you to see it through. Taylor replied. "Anil, if. as you say, you were not playing polities when you introduced the original resolution, why didn't you confer with the other Com missioners on the subject and probably soine light could have been thrown on jit? It would take but five minutes to ! get the members together." | "You're a nice man to consult with, are you not?'' the Mayor retorted. • • Did vou ever consult me on any sub ject before coming to meeting? I did just what I thought was proper under the circumstances." '' Everything we have done was ac cording to law." was Taylor s reply. Mayor Calls It An Insult | "I want to say to you that, there was no political buncombe in my mo tive. I offered that resolution for the benefit of the unemployed and if you doubt mv words that men are search ing for work I can shbw you the names : of between 400 and 500 men who now | are seeking jobs. When I offered the I resolution I was just as honest and sincere as I ever was in my life and in | the face of that you come' in here and .offer that insulting resolution." Commissioner Lynch offered to take the Mayor to a grading job on Seven teenth "street, which now is underway, saying that he could prove his claim that it is not feasible to start city im provement work now, in cold weather, in view of the added cost that it would i mean to the city, but the Mayor declin ed. He said lie is satisfied the work i would cost more, "but I think the cir ; cumstances warraut the expenditure.'' "Give me $5,000 and I'll put the I unemployed to work and find jobs for every man," said Lynch. " Vou have SBB,OOO to build sowers. Why not spend some of that?'' asked the Mayor. "But I can't use that money for this purpose. That is to cover the con tract jobs.'' Lynch later said lie could use the $5,000 in employing men to cut ice from the city's streets. "It is foolish, I know," said Lynch, "and not the proper way to spend the people's money, and you can bet that I do not intend to offer such a resolution, but it is one way out of this matter and will put the men to work. Let the Mayor offer a resolution to till at effect if he is as eager as he say he is to find work for the unemployed." Appeal From Mayor's Ruling Subsequently Lynch wanted to know what hail become of his resolution which the Mayor "ruled out of order because the heaUs of the several depart ments involved already know just what, is sought by that resolution.'' Tn the interim Lynch, Bowman and Baylor had attached their signatures to a typewritten appeal from tiie Mayor's decision and this was filed with tho clerk. "The question is on the appeal. Shall it stand or be defeated 1" spoke up the chair. "Mr. Chairman.' "began Mr. Gorgas rising from his seat. ' • No, Mr. Gorgas, you cannot discuss the question. It must be voted upon without deibate and they knew that be fore theyniskel the clerk to read rule governing this," said the Mayor. Mr. Gorgas resumed his seat and joined the Mayor in supporting the chair's decision while the three Repub lican members voted "no" and defeat ed it. On the question of the Lynch resolu tion Commissioner Gorgas obtained tho lloor, =aving that he had no objection ( to the passage of the resolution. He later said "l vote no because I feel that it is a reflection on members of this body." The resolution carried by a thrte to two vote, the Republicans all voting for its passage. Dr. E. S. Meals, avowed Republican candidate for Mayor; the venerable B. i F. Meyers, who manv years was the !ead<*r of the County Democrats, and Harry F. Oves, City Chairman of the Republican party, attended the meeting along with many city and county of ficials. * U. S. Torpedo Destroyer Launched By Associated Press. Philadelphia.

The need for an-, other sedimentation basin will not arise for five or six years, and when it is ■necessary the only feasible plan, ex perts tell me, will be to place it on the west sdde of the present basin, which is out of tihe way of the site for the pro posed wharf. " It is my belief that the return we will get from the light company as con sideration for the rental of the ground, is ample, and I do not believe tihe erec tion of the <#o«l wharf, as propose* t bv that concern, will in any way hinder 'future extension of the filtration sys tem.
