veil of secrecy was liftpd and the
speeches Riven lo the press.

The Democrats left the Bellcvuo con- Won'r
fldent th.it they had disproved the .,. .-if^r-aifv as an emissaiy of John W.
port that Walsh and Curlcy are out for, Davis, but as a delegate from ward 33.

'But he will at least be iii a position to
.know whether Walsh and Ct ley Intend
Uo aid the Davis campa'-in hero, and he
jmay feel in CiUt>' bound to repfjrt to the
Uae'ern headouarters at New York if
the " do m;t make themselves clear.

The Oeniorrats here have been look-
ing forw.'ird to CIov, .Smith's speech as
the tiipgest Run of their campaign. They
ho];>o it wilt remove all trac*-s of the
[diSRust ^vhich iM-evnIled in the weo'KS
followini? the New 'i'ork convention, and
retjnile tiie party. T'ney probably for-
'get. however, that Smith's primary pnr-
it'Ote In comiuB here Is not to elect Deiti-
ooratlc candidates in the state, but In
the hope i(f %\lTniinK tiie electoral votes
of .Massachusetts for liavls.

He Is making gooil his promise of the
I.'iRl nis'e.t of the convention to "lake
off his coat" and Avork for Daxin. If
he is informed tliat his speech will do
I'avls no uood, he may alter his plans,
and he will almost certainly do so if
tl'« national committee tells him that
the state leaders lere arc abanrionlngr

yesterday .succeeded in getting for-
mer Mayor John F. l"itzgerald of
Boston to pre.Mdc a.s temporary
chairman and Joscpli B. I'.lv of
\ WcstlitUi as pcrmancin chairman,
at the State convention in Wcirtes-

'i'ho State committer chairman
pcr.sitadcd Mr. I'itzgcrald to take

tion hy apiicaHiig to his loyaltv to

' gerald was the guhcrnatorial can-
(Hdate two year.s ago was urged by
MoGiue as a reason for Mr. I'it?-
gcrald to act as chairman. ;

I At the meeting of the (hn.ocratic
committee on resolutions ni VVoiccstn
'this afternoon, the Ku Klux Jilan and
(prohibition will be among the issues
I. -cost fre-ly discussed. It Is generally
Ibelleved that the platform will coiuaui

i The prohibitlcn Issue will be a harder
'..lie for the Democrats to handle,
(rromlnent members of the party are
■'oiiig lo Worcester today to supiwrt

(PteVmined.'ln case a modification Pl'"'''
fails, to press for a vdank which wm
, ft.-ctivdy prohibit tho making of cldei
bv farmers, if the apple Juice contains
in' ire than one-halt of one per ctut.
Tho argument for this plank Is tha^
Ul.,; most effective way to bring about
a modilication of the Voliitead act is
to deprive the farmers of their favorite
beverage, thus forcing them lo support
t laiper general nlcolmllc content

It l.-i possible that lie prohlbitlc-
I Issue may be brought on to the tloor
of the l.'emocratlc ciiiivcutuni.

tlie more than-'IfiOO person.^ who oc-
cuiiied every foot of available space,
it was afterward said that nearly 50
per cent, were Republican.s who
were interested in seeing and hear-
ing the leading Democratic candi-.

Another largely aticnded rally was
held ill the .Nuditorium tn M:<lden,
where Mayor Curley carried his anti/
1 iMiller light into the back yard of his

abridge this riRht i.s destructive of the
l)'>aoe, harmony and Rood order upon
which patriotism rests. I have repeat-
edly challeuKcd yMvan T. Fuller to de-
clare his position with reference to tlie
Ku Klnx Klaii, and lo tbe present time
lie has deflLicd to di'olare against this
iiidcons, nn-Am"rlcan nri:;a nl?-at ion. No
man worthy of the title American citl-
5icn can Justify casting a vote In Ills
behalf until lie has declared against
tlie Klan. Tlie Klan must be driven out
nf Massachusetts, and to the »onduct
of this work T shall devote all the pow-
er Invested In me as Governor of this
Commonwealth.

Commercial Problem

"The second vital question for con-
nlderation affects the existence of all
the people of Massachusetts. It may
bn said to be the bread and butter |
proposition of this campaign, namely,
the re.storatlon of commerce and the
l)rpmotion of Industry. To the present
time Mr. Fuller has failed to dlscu.os
this all-Important proposition. Com-
merce and Industry can only be pro-
moted through generous and wise ex-
penditure of public monay. The parsi-
monious policy of the Kepnblican party
in this Commonwealth Is in large
measure responsloie tor tne ku-huk""""^-
tion of comflnerce and in the stifling of
ina«siry.

Says Mayor, Parang No

Taxes, Doesn't Care How

Public Money Is Spent

TELLS HOW BOSTON
RATE REM|jgp^LOW

By THOMAS CARENS
*'I never knew until this mornlTig
why Jim Curley was such a apcnil
thrift with other people's ittoney,'
said Lt-Gov. Fuller at his rallici
last night, "but at last tho secret

is out

"According to th* morning papom hf
doesn't pay any taxes at all. Naturallj
ho doeen't care how much of our monej
Is spent, beoauaa It doesn't come out ol
him. I don't Itnow how ha runs thai
palace out on the .lamalcaway without
drawing a little somethlne, but that of
cours« la another question."

QIULETT AT RALLIES
Th« lieutenant-Kovemor spoke at ral-
lies In the Charlestown Hlpth school, at
BIks' hall In Medford square, and at
Reavorni hall In Jamaica Plain. Speaker
GlUott spoke In Charlestown and Med-
foiyJ. The Charlestown rally, held In an I Ptat'
overwhelmlnKly Democratio ward, was
small, with only a Jew more than 100
persona present. biR those In Medford
Rn."! JaTn.»!ca Plain were well attended.

Speaker Qlllett declared tho Isstio In
the campalirn 1b the support of Presi-
dent CoolldttB. He said the election of
the President is now a certainty, but
that If CoolldgB Is to carry out the poli-
cies enunciated In his speech of Thurs-
day night he must hav« a Congress In
sympathy with him.

He discussed the Jsiues raised by
I Senator La Follette, partlcalarly tho

i proposal to clip the wings of the su-
preme court. This proposal, ho said,
strikes at the roots of the American
system of 'Kovsmment, aa under It

every arelitifiwiranteed by the constl»j

ttitlon for 135 years mlirht bo ""[fP* i
away by a fanatical Congresa Glllott :
also discussed the tarlfr Issue, pointing ,
out that the record of the Damoeratlo
party Is contrary to the best interests
of MaaaachusettK.

Fuller apparently enjoyed his eren-
Ing Immensely, and every shaft aimed
at Curley was good natured. The

t'harlestown rally was held only ft short
(ilst.ance from the place where ha was
born, while the Modl'ord rally was near
Mrs. Puller's birthplace, and he ex-
pressed the hope that tho voters of
both sections would take a neighborly
Interest lu his candidacy on election
day.

KU KLUX ISSUE

At all three meetings Fuller d!acu.^sed
tha Ku Klux Klan Issue quite frankly.
Ho told of tho attacks on him In klan
newspapers In tho primary campaign,
and drew a l.atigh as he repeated the
counts In tho klan's Indictment of his
candidacy. ;

"i thought after they got through j
with me," he said, "that there wouldn't '
bo any doubt as to where I stood i
on the klan. But now Curley says I'm
a ku kluxer. To me tho Introduction
of racial and religious Issue.s In a po-
litical carnpaifrn Ik most distasteful.
When I am Governor of Massachusetts
1 shall know no race or creed or color.
T shall be what I have always tried to
be, a liberal, broad minded, average
American citizen."

Fuller renewed his attack on the Cur-
ley administration and said that the
mayor, who once ad\'ocated tho pay-
as-you-go iKillcy, has ikjw become an
.loostle of the "sneiul-as-you-go" Idea.

"The Uepublican pirty in thiE cam-
paign." he said, "stands on its re^cord
r.t tho State House of furnishing relief
t(i tho over-burdened taxpayers of the
Slate. Our liemoeratlc frleiid,s tell tis
(liat tho iieoploi are tired of hearing that
we have reduced the state df bt 16
iiillllnns and the state tax four millions,
and that in four years wo have not l.s-
sued a single be-id^

STONE CALLS CURLEY
"INVERTED KLANSMAN"

Cllhu 11. ;Uone, assistant United
district attorney, and target
for snnie of Mayor Chirley's radio
speeches, said nf a rally In Balom Last
Mlf;lu that (.'urley Is an "Inverted klans-
inan," and tirediefed that tho mayor's
"appeal to tho lowest Instincts of racial
and religious prejudice" would be re-
niidlated by the votem. He repeated
Ills rharKo that Curley In office ha."!

faced with a question of "continuing
the business administration of Gov.
Cox or turning our affairs over to t}ie

.'^Itout.'^ <it "You're a liar, rhrow him

out," and threats of bodily harm made dur-
ing .Adiov.-'s speech, failed to break up the
tally. At one point the lieutenant gover-
nor started to take oft his coat to go after
one of the men who was leading the dis-
turbanoe, but Adlow placed a restraining
hand on his arm and shouted "Let me take
care of them." Raising his voice so that it
could be heard by every one of the three
hunt'red or more men who crowded the Ions'

his,

not fooled by him. ■ Any on* yhi> !>*•.•*•«!

Lower assessments on real estate, and what
did the people get? — much higher a»»o»»-
ments all around.

"He has treated his employees without
rogtn-d to them or their famllled. The
treatment of municipal employen.i In the
days of Boss Tweeil dwindles Into Tillr«»-
sh iiisigniluaiico as compared with the
alrocious treatment received at the handK
of Mayor Curley. Hero we have tho cpec-
taclo ot city employees, regardless of
whether they are Republicans or Demo-
crats, harnes.'^ed and tied to the Curley
machine and compelled to go out .and work
for him uiKler fear of the political guillo-
tine. Similarly they have beeti compeded
lo dig down into their pay envelopes to
help lin.-ince his campaign." j

. "'i'ou're a liar," shouted a dozen Cur-,
leyites in a chorus,

"I am not a liar," answered Adlow.
."■you can't prove ^that any employee ever-
paid any money into the mayor's campaign

"You're a liar I" came the chorus again,

hecklers and pioit,-d.;d Us give tb"m, as
well as Mayor Curley, one of the severest
tongue-lashings heard In a political cam-
palgTi in Boston in recent years.

Offore the disturbance ended an over-
whelming majority of the crowd was with
the young speak, r. and he was applauded
to the echo when he concluded by
shouting: "Go back to your jobs and
tell the num who .>:ent you here to break

Heckling Starts When Fuller Speaks

Councillor Charles L. tiurrUl, who lit ii
candidate for reelecthm to the Exectitlve
Council, nreslded at the meeting. Rumors
that "something Is going to happen" had
drawn a capacity c-gwd. Mr. Fuller was
I Introduced a.s Ih'' lirst speaker, and,
':illhough he was heckled at times, the
storm did not break until Adlow had start-
ed. The licuten.mt governor carried tho
battle right to Mayor Curley's doorstep.
He sarca.stloally referred to Curley as en-

cllv admlnistrnlions and received a re-
spectful hearing throughout most of hUl
speech.

Luke Sliields, an employee oi the m»yor'«
otnre, and other city employees most active
In Curley's behalf, had eflged thoir way
near to the front of the long room. They
heckled Adlow from the start, and at first
the speaker paid no heed to them. In his
opening he referred to Curley and the Ku
Klu.t klan issue. He charged the mayor
wllh giving the Klan a dallj,- hypodermic
to keep it alive.

"You know I am not a liar," Adlow re-
j)ii--d, ";ind you .also know tli.at whenever

resorted to .sticli cries. I want you to know

'"S'ou're no pronhel." someone shouted.

"Hut Mlijah was ;i prophet," another
\i.ire replii'd.

Paying no liced lo the uproar, the speak-
ei' continued :

"I'uriey talks a lot about industrial de-
vilopnienl, about development of the port
of Boston. He talks a lot about what, he
will get for tiio State in Washington When

..\t this point the crowd yelled and
cheered, to the discomfort of tho Cur-

Whit Held Tuck, a Dcmoci-al, interrupted
the speaker to shout :

"How about Tom White, chairman of
the commission on admlnislratlon and fi-
nance, on T^eacon Hill Isn't he interested
in politics?"

"Ves, he is interested In politics, and
why sb'iuidn't lie: he," Adlow answered,
"but did you ever hear of him com-
pelling State employees to ijo out cir-
culating pledge cards under penalty of los-

RECEPTION OF CURLEY

Yest,.rd:,y was the first tlmt, in mnny
years that ^rayo^ Curley had attended
a ineetine- at the Hendricks Club, and
apparently the word had been pasMed
uiit to the "boys" to give him a hearty
reception. Years apo I/omasnev nnd
Curley ^ve^n the Idttercst of i.oliiieal
enemies, and, tlmugli tlie two have now
apparently ouried tlie hatehot, the w,l-
eonio (riven the mayor ye.storday after-
noon was far from being unanimous.

However, tlie applause lasted about
five seconds and was louder than that
.u'lven any of the otlier si.eakers, in-
.■ludlne: I/omasney liiniseif. Whether bo-
eaiiao of the 20 or 30 women present or
because of the chanKed days and cus-
toms, the meetlnj; evinced little of the
enthusiasm that in past years marlied
the .'-;unday-l>eforo-electlon nieellioTS at
tho club. The inajority of the crowd
was there to listen to r..omasney, and
ills sharp thru.sls at ConKres.^man
Tague elicited many latislis and brief
hursts of handclappliiB, His speech

convtilslve clutches at hia collar, and
several men In tho crowd hail shouted >
"take 'em o|T," he removed his collar
and tie, displaying the pristine Klory ':
of his oiitinK .shirt and suspenders of
Baron Penfrew baby blue. Then he
took anotlier swallow of water and got
down to business.

CIRCULARS AND POSTERS

On tho platform taljle was a pile of
political circulars and posters favorable
to Tague's candidacy and attacking
tXiuglass 'and Ijomasiiey. Manin ex-
hibited them one by one and ridd'e,. the
charges that were made in tlieni. One
of tiie cliarges was tiiat Dnnglass sup-
ported Isaac Allen against J.ihn H. Sul-
i!\..n for Hie Governor's council. Lo-
masney declared this was untrue, end
added that a son of John H. Sullivan
was denyln.g it at Doug-lass rallies yes-
terday In other parts of the city.

At the conclusion of Ills speech, lust '
before urslng all to vote for the straight |
Democratic ticket, Lomasney held up '
the Tague circul.ars and cords and salf"
that tlie cost of printing and distrlbni-'
Ing them probably totalled JlO.OrtO,
though Congressman Tague during the
primary campaign had declared that he
was "a poor man."

"Tion't you worry about iioor I'eter
the Oreai," said Lomasney In ciosing.
"He had 10 years at ?7.'.6o and other
UiingH a year, and w-llh (lis I.,iberty
bonds and the rest of it. the Tague's
won't have to give up llu'ir aiitmnoblle

''I'nder the state law a public heaiinp

"The lienrin.sr was given on OcL I.

date It could bo (flvon on account of the

"Tile application then ■wa.s referred to

■was granted on Oct, 19, 1901).

"You will observe the following Inao.

Walsh and Curley Greeted
with Real Ovation in

Surpassing even ttie monster Dem-
ocratic rally in the Arena last Sat-
urday night in enthusiasm, if not in
numbers, last night's closing meet-
ing in Symphony hall was marked
by scenes such as have rarely been
witnessed in previous political cam-
paigns. Just before midnight, as
Senator Walsh and Mayor Curley
stood and clasped hands on tV.c plat-
form, 3500 persons stood up and
shouted their cheers for the two
leaders.

Tf ivMs n-.ao oVlook betoro Senator
Walsh appeared and brought the vast
audience to its feet !n an ovation that
lasted for several minutes. While he
was in the in^ldle of his speech the
mayor arrived, lirecedcd by a parade of
voters from his old ward 12, with their
own band. Ho Bhook hand.'j with the
senator and then took a seat Immedi-
ately behind until Walsh had finished
his speech.

VOTERS' OPPORTUNITY
Introduced by the chairman of the

to have Its effect on the voters as th«r
are on their way to the polis. '■f^^ '^ ofL,
Whirling through the 26 wards of tl>«
city, the mayor ajid other candidates
on the Democratic ticket ended a

rally in Symphony hall. There political
spellbinders held forth from » o'ciooK
until the arrival of Senator Walsh, who
preceded the gubernatorial candidate on
the platfo-m by more than an hour.

Trouble was threatened for a time
out at the Municipal buildlnB In Hyde
Park, earlier In the evening, where
M-tyor Curley and supporting speakor.s
arrived only to discover that a big
Republican rally was under way In tho
main liall of the building. I.t.-Gov.
J'"uller, his political opponent, wa.'j ad-
dressing the audience, wliich consisted
of more tlian 300 persons. ^

Dumbfounded, the mayor demanded
an explanation from the police ser-
g(?ant on duty as 'to who was ro_
sponsilile for the mixup. The police-
man was unable to explain, and when
the enraged Dcmocr.atic candidate de-
clared. "I'll fmd out who put this over ;
on mo," he was referred to tlio cus- i
todlan of the building. |

The custodian explained that two |

had been advertised for last night In
the rviuiiicipai bulidlng, an;! that the
I^emocrats were in a hall In the base-
ment waiting for the mayor's appear-
ance. There the nuiyor, irritated over
the situation, nuide a very brief talk,
his short stay surprising those who had
come there to listen to hlni.

The noonday rally held In Pemborton
square was utteudeu by an estimated
crowd of 10,000 persons, niling the
square from one end to the other.
Mayor Curley was tho principal speak-
er, denouaclng I^t.-Gov. Fuller, his op
basis

a ntimber of cotinty officers.

Tha campaign ended amid feverish
excitement. Rumors of Impending elefl-

day. Liiat-mlnute accuaattong W«r»

CURLEY CALLS NAMES
In Boston all day yesterday and far^
Into the night sensation followed sen-
sation, r.rayor Curley, speaking to a
huge crowd In Pemherton square at
noon, called I^t.-Oov. Fuller a "whole-i
sale liar" and held him personally ao-
countRble for the suicide of Insane pa-
tients of state Institutions. At that
time tho Democratic candidate for
Governor v■•a^ planning a cross-state
trip m tho evening, starting In Spring-
field and ending In Boston. 1
But In tho late afternoon Mayor Cur-
I ley ahaiuloned the plan. Tho expla-
nation ,,!ven r ts that Gov. Cox had
announced his Intention to answer over
the radio Curley'a attack on the state
administration, and Curley wanted to
remain at home to make his own an-
I'swer. But this explanation was rldl-
; ouled not only by Republicans, but byl
j.many of the mayor's own parly. They
! said that Curley, abandoning all hope
';of election, was concentrating on the

nonent, ^onj s basis of his world war

^irBoston vote, hoping to roll up here a

majority large enough to hold his lead^

rally. Gen. Charles H. Cole, Senator 'g^^d,' ^"^ ^Jj,"™;,,"/ ^'^

Walsh, his voice broken aljnost.to a «" : ^ _.^_« •

whlsoer, declared that tho one great
feature of the present campaign had
been the outstanding fact that he still
held a place In the hearts of tha peopla
of Massachusetts and to have found
they had followed his service In Wash-
ington step by step.

"Tomorrow," ho said, "Is your day.
Tomorrow the power of government Is.
In your hands. Tomorrow you shall say
how you wish to be governed and by
whom you wish to uo governed. In

To mo public office has never been a
personal honor, but simply the oppor-
tunity to give the highest possible serv-
Icfi for one's fellow-men. If you do
your part tomorrow as wo have done
ours for the last month, the victory wUl
be overwhelmingly triumphant."

Mayor Curley took oeenalorf to focus
his remarks against Gov. Cox because
the latter had made a radio talk In sup-
port of Lt.-Gov. Fuller earlier In tho

evening. -, * , „

"Gov. Cox. has again seen fit to talk
for Alvan T. Fuller, this time from the
Edison radio station," he said, ".So I
cancelled my trip to Springfield and;
Worcester tonight so that I might go 1
through tho wards of the city of Hoston
ftnd tell the voters what sort of a man
Alvan Is."

■ Ho then proceeded to renn parts or
the speech that Gov. Cox made over tho
radio, and then challenged every stato-
riient the governor made, especially In
reference to the administration of the
■tale Institutions, and ended hy saying
tlrnt he had no doubt as to tha Hnal

been warned they said that unles.s ha

Gov. Cox made his speech, a smash-
ing attack on the type of camjiaign
Curley has put up, and a general denial
that the Inmates of .stalo ln:ititutlons
have been <'arrled any comforts. Jjt. -
Gov. Fuller, starling In .Stou(;hton and

IN FACE OP LANDSLIDE

"Tho result In the gubematoria\ i-™.

, test, both In the State and In BostoK

I with a total of nearly a half mllllori

i votes In the former, and one hundred

and twent --flvo thousand In the latter,

Is most gratifying;, being; the largest

vote over received by a Democratic

candidate for Governor.

"This greatly Increased Demooratlf
vote In the homo State of Preslden'
Calvin Coolldge and In the face of J
Republican landslide that swept thi
entire country, Is all the more remark
.able.
"The Republican party achieved 4

notable victory and all representatives
of that party, Including my late oppo-
nent, A Ivan T. Fuller, are to be con-
gratulated."

A No-Tip Establishment

The Mayor and Mrs. Curley will leave
this morning for Yama Tama Farms,
Anamanock Coitnty, New York. Here
he will sojourn for two weeks and at-
tempt to regain some of the vigor he
expended In the bitter contest for the
governorship.

Yama Tama Farms, according to the
Mayor, Is a verltabio paradise. It Is a
no-tip establishment maintained by a
wealthy New York advertising man
who operates the place at a loss an-
nually of $150,000.

REMOVE SIDEWALK

Commissioners Reject Plan
for More Parking Space

The Bo.slon street commissioncr,s
after a hearing tit City Hall ycster- ,
day rejected the proposal of the j
Boston Motor Club for removal of
the sidewalk along the north side of i
the Ro.-^ton &. Albany Tailroad yards
between E.xctt'r s-;.reet and the
Gloucester street bridge. Several
bu.siness men in the district sup-
ported the project for the reason
that it would provide more parking i
.ipacc for automobiles and therefore
encourage shoppers to trade in that

vicinity.

Joseph A. Ilourke, comnilsslone.r of
puhllc n-orks, oiiposed the plan. Ho
said It would probably necessitate con-
struction of a retaining wall at a cost
nf J10ft,(iOO, a su mfar out of proportion
;o the benefit iiccnilng from additional
lurking ppacn for only 12S cars, which
'sllmatcs showed would be th'- iiumber
jM-r.vlded for bv remo\-al of the sidewalk.
Commissioner UourUc also argued that
,a conslderablo number of jiedestrlJins
'n=ed the sidewalk and that their Inter-
ests ought not to h« Ignored, while fur-
thermore he was oppoBCd In general to

ford Hates arainsi the ndministrntlnn
of Deer Island. The members of tin'
City Counnll, as lotmty commissioners,
accompanied by Mr Bates and Dr .T.ihn-

and after a rather roufrh voyage landed |
at the Island about 11 o'clock. On the'

Arguments at Every Stop

As .■■oriii as tile iiaity landed, liowever.

occasion for arnunienl. Tho Inspectlnfi
City Ciuincilors uKeniatcly servfd
si:ppiirter.s of <Mie or tiie other side, am!
occasionally were forced to act a •? I'on-
liilators of both of them.

Tho party made a tour parliculnriy
tlin places on the island which w
rritlclxed by «aiiford Hates, vlsitng lirst
the shed where men who have heater
I their wives or deserted tliem are en-
j gaged In breaiiiUK: stone. Tlie incmise.s-
were oIoRcly scriilinlxed and the sugKes-
tlon was made that tiie men should be
ecttilpjied with eye-Klassejf, to protect
th^Ir e.\-os from the particles of flying
stone. Or Johnson assured Mr Hates
that this matter would be attended to,
ftnd It wan also BUgtrested that roof

it was heri' that the big argument stait-

' ' 1 he Mayor blames Saiiford l^ates for

dcncc as to McDade's nntitncis o,,, f;|.,HH)iiig of the imf<

The Mayor cites four major reasons
for the conditions at Peer Island re-
'Kponsible for th.) sensational report of
|romnussloner Bates. First the, group-,
li-.R of child welfare and chronic sickj
and .'iBed poor work with that of crlm-
jlnals; .'second the temperamental unfit-
ness of Deputy Mast(^r McDade and the
legal technicalities that prevent his re-
moval becan.-^e he is a veteran; the long
standing customs which through usage,
avo h'.come recognized, and fourth, of
mmlssloner Bates' failure to comply
with the general laws ot lOl'l and the
participation ot commissioner of cor-
rection, the deputy master at Peer 'Is-
land and an employee of the Instltu-'
lions department in "a political con-!
KPlraoy to discredit Pr. Johnson and ■
Jlayor Curley."

Says Island Overcrowded

Tn his statement the Mayor says:
"The tremendous Increase In (ho pop-
ulation at Peer fsland, being an In-
crease of nearly SOO per cent In a period
of three years, renders It advisable for
the city Hhortly to consider transfr-rrlng
Its penal population to a hircer l-land
y "This would be possible through thi;
■ transfer of the penal luipulatlon tc'
I l-<ing Island. In the event that thi.'

! Fair Deprcc'ation Reserves

"l'.'.:il)er-leiice m sucn nialters has
shown thill di'pn-ciation reserves need
to be adjusted perliKllcaliy. The New
I5nglnnd Company has en.loyed nearly
two full cycles of the composite llf
of its plant. A cycle In thi
a telephone company is considered lo
lie ap\>roxlraately a period of I!.", years.
.Many units of tele)ihone plant have
been retlr-ed from ser vice not because
they were outworn, but because of In-'
. adcfiuacy or idisoleacence resulting
from new inventions or public retiulre-
ments and changes.

"If ".'i years be the composite life ot
the New I'lngland (■ompany's plant H
ought anually to put Int.. its reserve
fund a sum ctiuiil approximately to
toirr per cent of the plant Investment.
The present annual i:i» \'.: in excess
of fiv.' i> r c.-nt on $l,in,i«i<i.iiOO ot plant.

Reserve Now $40,000,000

• "Uist ^<Mr Ihe New ICngland Tele-
phone I 'oinpany put into this reserve
fund aoirroxlmately, $i5,S00.Oi-iO, It took
out of It for plant retired from service
I only $3,030,000. The present accumu-
l-ited reserve of the company Is over
$40,0110,000. This is Miual to L7 per cent
of lis pbrnt value.

"This sum Is needlessly hlf;h. i' re-
.present.s a vicious pryamid of charges
'that are a bur-den on the rate paying
,„,bli' It should be reduied. Now if
the time for a read.luslmerrl, and tire
WRV to do it is not by increasing leln-
pbone r-ates. Viut rather by reducing
them.

"Since this $4ft,0(lO.IK)0 of reserve is not
held bv the company irr a bank, but la
invested by It In additional telephone
plan' It Is clear that the stockholders
of the New Kngland Company own a
telephone system wUlcli is measurably

dividends have since 1911 been m
creased from six per cent to seven per

Five city councUnien, meeting fori
I the fir,Ht time that can be recalled
as county commis.sioners, voted ye«-
1 terday afternoon to inspect the
J Deer island house of correction next
Tuesday and tlie Charles street jail
the following Tuesday. Mayor Cur-
ley, who refused to attend the ses-
sion, declared that it was illegal, as.
the presence of six members -was
necessary for a quorum.

The action of the five councilmen,
Ilealey, Lane, Walsh, Purcell and Gil-
body, was the result of chargea of mal-
admlnl.strallon at the island by San- j
ford Bates, state oomml.ssloner of cor- j
rectlon, followed by Mayor Curlcy'a

The group of five Issued a Bt'ate.ment
to the effect that the law requires two
InBpectlons a year of the Jail and house
I of correction by the Suffolk coiuity
I coiTimbssloners, whereas throuffV lifno-
ranoc of the *xaot law Inspections have
been made for ;,cars by a standing
committee of the city council. To live
up to the law, therefore, the council-
men, ad commlKslonerH, will make the
Deer Island trip Again ncrt week, al-
though they ]u8t made It last week.

The commissioners explained that a
legal obligation Is Imposed upon them
to make such Inspections and that re-
sponsibility for ei'ch Inspentloiis "may
not be evaded by them If the full mem-
bership of the county commission are
not present at the preliminary hear-

City's Greatest Boon

"The Kreatest thlntr that can oome
to this or any other American city Is
tho civie peace nnd human fraternity
that are based on the trust and confi-
rtence the clli/.eiis Kive to and receive
from each other; and the cultivation of
this spirit of lallh In our fellows should
he on.) of the phdKes of the new year,
If the real meaning, the right Interpre-
tation of the Declaration, the Consti-
tution and the wise uHeranres of the
Fathers of tliis Kc.ieibllc, are to be
written Into the life of the nation now
In the making.

"This eonsiimmallon can only be
reached by the action and utterance of
the Individual ritlzeii; the solidarity of
the Republic Is dependent on the
thought and effort of its unltK; and If i
wo can by our life and labor In the
coming y<ar lift this city to a higher
plane wo can do our sliaro in strength-
ening our common' country and sftfe-
Kuariliiig a government, a body ot prin-
ciples that have become the heritage
of humanity.

"Thl.s Is the ideal I wish to present to
the citizens for the new year; ^nd I am
convinced it can lie measurably malerl-
allz.d and reall/.erl if men of good will
within our <ommuiilty would take a
moment to dwell upon the beauty of
such an Weal i.nd tho nobility of Its
realization.

"To every citizen T extend a message
of good vvill. the hope of health nnd
hapiilness to all. ' ! peace under their

various undertakings; and to em-h and

Ms anuu.'il contrilmtion of JIOO to the
Post Sant.a (-lana Fund. The Kitt was
nr»t fi-om the Ainyor nlone. It earne from
the "Curley Family." It came from
children who wait fop Santa Claus them-
&'elvf.s and wish to flharo their joy with
other bo.vs and p:lrlf».

Ever a lovi^r of little children hini.-ieli',
the Mayor could not allow the Christ -
nias f:'*aHOn to jias.s without making an
early donation to tho Post Sanl.a fund.
With tho check tile Mayor and Mrs.
Curley send the following h.-ttt-r;

"The Joy of giving for tho i)Urch,ise
of toys with which to gladden the
hearts of the poor little children is nw

nroBocutlon of tUla

• The protest against an increase of
telephone rates was tmaninioiisly
voiced by representatives of nearly
half a hundred Mass.-ichiisctts cities
and towns, Mayors, selectmen and
city solicitors, at a nicetinR called
by Mayor Ciirley at the Council
Chamber, City Hall, yesterday noon,
and without a single dissenting vote
a resolution was adopted calling for
a sweeping investigation of the New
E^^.g'nnd Telephone and Telegraph
Company and all its works, and cor-
porate relation? with other com-
panies of the Bell system.

tertown, Marlboro, Hockport, Nor-
wood, Stoughtoo, L*oinlnster and Mll-
£oi;d.

Mayor Curley, who. presided at the
meeting, called attention to the fact,
that the telephone company Jiad a.
reserve of $40,000,000, saying: "I cppre-
clato the power represented by such
a reserve. It represents a nation- 1
widtt organization. I realize the same
raid on the public puree Is being made
elsewhere.

"In the face of the general belief
that the compajiy has not established
its case In the Increased rates de-
manded for Boston, we are confronted I
with the situation of an attempt by'
hugo sums of money to drug the pub-
lic mind.''

Criticises Advertising

The Mayor severely crltUed the ad-]
vertlslng campaign the company was
conducting and charged that an at-
tempt wag belns made to brlbs news- 1
papers, holding up a morning nKfn-
papeii fnot the Post), and polntlns to
an editorial on the telephone situation

pany on tho same page. ;

He further charged that "the com*!
pany believes that If the channels ot
information can be prostituted, th*
Public t'llllties Commission can be
depended upon to be servile."

E. Mark Sullivan, corporation coun-'
sel, who Is conducting the fight on be-
half of the city of Boston against th« 1
telephone increase, said among other ;
things: "The members of the Pu is
rtllltles Commission are human. T y
know their heads will be lopped off by
these powerful public service corpora-
tions unless they do the bidding of
these Interests. In a case like this,
with tho corporation against the Inter-
ests of the people, the Public Utilities
CoTnmlssIon, can hardly be expected to I
do otherwise than as the creatures of
their creators, the corporations, which
dictate to the sovornor the appolntm*nt
of members to tho Public Utilities Com- ,
mission."

Afraid of Corporations

He further commented that "men em-
piyoyed by the Public, Utilities Commis-
sion become pale hearted when faced
by couiu'el of the telephone company
anil are afraid to state on tho stand
what they have said to me privately.
They know which way the wind
blows."

The mayor asked that the Canibrldec

No employes of the city of Bos-
ton will receive salary increases next
year except the 3.500 workers whose
pay is made larger automatically by
operation of the sliding scale for
liremen, policemen, teachers and a
few others. About 75t)0 of tho 9200
municipal employes to whom Mayor
Curiey gave r '.ses this year will be
disappointed if they expected any
further boosts.

In directing department heads yester-
day to prepare their budget estimates
on this basis, Mayor furley explained
that the tendency t:i private employment
is to reduce wagey, tha^ the raises ht»
(iranted this year have x^laced a heavy
burden on tlie city, and that public
Wf h'are jueasMrep are costing: the city
niu( h more this year than taut.

He asked his exeoutivea to assume
their share of the burden of the eltua-
