March 7, 1922. Board of Estimate and Apportionment:

Gentlemen-At the meeting of the Board of Estimate and Apportionment held on February 17, 1922 (Cal. No. 165), a date for a public hearing was fixed for March 10th concerning the petition of Elizabeth Bauer and a number of others requesting the amend-ment of Sections Nos. 22 and 28"of the Area District Map by changing from a; "D" to an "E" Area District 81st street from Bay parkway to 23d avenue, Borough of Brooklyn.

This matter had previously been referred to the Committee on City Plan and Public Improvements on January 6, 1922 (Cal. No. 153), and again on February 10, 1922 (Cal. No. 176), on which latter date duly acknowledged protests against the proposed change were presented on behalf of Alfred Jarret, William C. Perfect and Katherine Neville.

This matter was considered by the Committee at its meeting held on March 7th, at which time a report was presented by the chief Engineer, of which a copy is transmitted herewith, recommending that the proposed change be made effective, which recom-mendation is concurred in by the Committee. Respectfully,

HENRY BRUCKNER, President, Borough of The Bronx, Chairman, Committee on City Plan and Public Improvements.

Report No. 21778. February 17, 1922. Committee on City Plan and Public Improvements, Board of Estimate and Apportion-

ment: Gentlemen-At the meeting of the Board of Estimate and Apportionment held

on January 6, 1922 (Cal. No. 153), the Chief Engineer was instructed to submit a report to your Committee concerning a communication from the Secretary to the President of the Borough of Brooklyn, bearing date of December 30, 1921, trans-mitting the petition of Elizabeth Bauer and a number of others, requesting a change from a "D" to an "E" area district for 81st street from Bay parkway to 23d avenue.

A similar reference was made at the meeting of the Board held on February 10, 1922 (Cal. No. 176), concerning a communication from the Acting President of the Borough of Brooklyn bearing date of January 23d, transmitting a protest against the proposed change signed by Alfred Jarret and William C. Perfect. At the meet-ing referred to there was also presented the protest of Katherine Neville. All of these protests have been duly acknowledged.

The petition bears the names of 14 property owners in the block under con-sideration, but no reasons are presented in support of the proposed change. The petitioners represent 65 per cent. of the frontage that would be affected.

The property owners who are on record as being opposed to the change state that the modification if made would depreciate the value of their property, will ag-gravate the housing situation, and will render almost impossible the sale of their unimproved land. From the information presented their holdings cannot be definitely located but they claim to own a total frontage in the block of 340 feet or 24 per cent. of the frontage proposed to be changed. This information if substantiated will require a unanimous vote of the Board in order to make the proposed change effective.

An examination of the Area District Map shows that this portion of 81st street is located in a "D" District. By reason of the comparatively small portion of the lot area that may be occupied for building purposes in a "D" Area District it is appropriate for a development consisting of one and two family houses in rows and also for apart-ment houses under an extremely restricted type of development. Under the requested "E" District designation the area of the lot which it is permissible to occupy for dwellings is even more highly restricted and under the usual conditions existing in a residential district this designation is appropriate only for detached and semi-detached houses on lots 40 feet or more in width.

An inspection shows that the frontage in the block under consideration is fully 50 per cent. improved with detached houses of substantial types located on plots having frontages ranging from about 40 feet to 60 feet. In general these buildings are placed well back of the street lines.

On June 10, 1921, the Board denied a petition to change from a "D" to a "C" Area District a portion of Bay parkway including the section affected by the petition now under consideration. This action was evidently based partly upon the fact that juris-diction over Bay parkway is in the Park Commissioner and partly by reason of the development which had taken place upon the abutting property consisting of detached dwellings on large plots. At the meeting of the Board held on February 17th last, a proposed amendment of the Area District Map by changing from a "D' to an "E" District the block of 81st street to the west of the one now under consideration was laid over.

In view of the fact that the development which has taken place in the block of 81st street covered by the present petition conforms with the area designation requested as well as in recognition of the substantial petition that has been presented on behalf of the property owners, I am of the opinion that the application should be approved, such action being recommended after a public hearing. Respectfully,

ARTHUR S. TUTTLE, Chief Engineer. The following persons appeared in opposition : Hon. Robert R. Lawson; William

G. Perfect and Andrew J. Thomas, property owners; and Chester Mayer and David Kaminsky, attorneys for property owners.

Gentlemen-It is proposed to widen the roadway of 33d street from Park to 5th avenues during the coming season. The property owners have been ordered to change their vaults, so that the curbs may be set back the required distance on each side, and to remove encroachments.

In connection with this it will be necessary to relocate the subway entrance to the Lexington Avenue Subway at 33d street and Park avenue. An estimate has been furnished by the Transit Commission in the amount of $4,000 as the cost of doing this work.

I respectfully recommend that an appropriation of $4,000 be made available for the Transit Commission for the purpose of relocating any subway structures which may be in the way of widening the roadway of 33d street. This work must be done before the roadway can be widened. Very truly yours,

JULIUS MILLER, President, Borough of Manhattan. The Secretary also presented a communication, dated February 21, 1922, from the

the President of the Borough of Manhattan, the Acting President of the Borough of Brooklyn and the Presidents of the Borough of The Bronx, Queens and Richmond-16.

To the Board of Estimate and Apportionment: Gentlemen-On March 3, 1922 (Cal. No. 286), you referred to the Comptroller a

communication from the Commissioner of Parks, Manhattan, requesting the approval of schedules for labor and material required for the purpose of planting trees in various parks under his jurisdiction.

On February 17, 1922 (Cal. No. 166), your Board authorized the issuance of $100,000 in tax notes to provide for planting trees in Central and other parks, Man-hattan. The schedules above referred to were in relation to this appropriation.

I have discussed this matter with Commissioner Gallatin and we are both of the opinion that far greater results can be obtained from the use of this appropriation if the Park Commissioner is permitted to provide for the acquisition and planting of the trees to be provided out of the above appropriation without public letting, and without requiring the approval of your Board as to the form of contracts. The season for tree planting this spring is very short. Commissioner Gallatin has ascertained where trees of different kinds and sizes can be obtained to the greatest advantage. Some nurseries have a surplus of one kind of stock and none of another that might be required. If the purchases are made under contracts to be advertised in the usual way, it would not only result in delay but it is doubtful whether bids would be received that would compare favorably with the terms that the Park Commissioner can make by shopping around among nurseries and tree merchants. The Commissioner has requested permission of the Board of Aldermen that the purchases under this appro-priation be exempted from public letting, but the Board of Aldermen to-day laid over his request until March 14, 1922. Whatever purchases are made by the Commis-sioner without public letting will of course be subject to audit in the Department of Finance. In view of these circumstances and the delay that would result from the preparation, approval and advertising of form of contracts, I believe the public interest would be served by the waiver by your Board of its requirement that such contracts and specifications should be submitted to you for approval, and I so recommend.

The adoption of the annexed resolution will give effect to such recommendation. Respectfully, CHARLES L. CRAIG, Comptroller. John J. Ryan, Secretary, Department of Parks, Borough of Manhattan, appeared. The following resolution was offered: Resolved, That the Board of Estimate and Apportionment hereby approves of the

establishment of Personal Service and Other Than Personal Service Schedules for the Department of Parks, Borough of Manhattan, for the year 1922, chargeable to Code "CDP-97," as follows:

(On December 16, 1921 (Cal. No. 184). this matter was referred to the Committee of Finance and Budget.)

The Committee of the Whole directed that it be restored to the calendar for this meeting and recommended that the claims be allowed, except in the cases of the fol-lowing : Frederick Heydt, Herbert M. Halton, Raymond Hubbard, Herman W. John-ston, Nathan Johnston and John Mercer, who resigned prior to the date to which con-tinuous service is required under the law. In the case of John E.

The Secretary presented the following: City of New York, Fire Department, Office of the Commissioner, Municipal

Building, December 2, 1921. Hon. JOHN F. HYLAN, Mayor, and Chairman, Board of Estimate and Apportionment,

City Hall, New York City : Dear Sir-Herewith please find communication received from Mr. Harry B.

Chambers, 115 Broadway, New York City. requesting payment of compensation to members of the Defender Hose Company of the former Village of Eastchester, Bor-ough of The Bronx, pursuant to the provisions of chapter 676 of the Laws of 1921, together with roster of said Hose Company and certificate of James W. Holler, fore-man, as to the services rendered by members, which contains his affidavit that there was no chief engineer of the Village of Eastchester, also affidavit of James W. Holler, foreman, as to the military service of five members.

,The bill amends chapter 686 of the Laws of 1899, and 613, Laws of 1900, the former of which authorizes your Board to pay suitable compensation to the members of this company who began active service previous to January 1, 1896. Chapter 613, Laws of 1900, extended the benefits to all who were members between June 12, 1895, and June 12, 1899, and thereafter.

Attached hereto will be found a report of Bernardo F. Carlock, Acting Deputy Chief, 7th Division, dated September 3, 1921, setting forth as required by law certain facts relative to the pending application for compensation.

I would respectfully ask the Board of Estimate and Apportionment, pursuant to statute herein previously quoted to authorize an appropriation in the sum of $7,527.80, which appears to be the total amount due to the several officers and members of Defender Hose Company on the basis of the rate of compensation heretofore allowed for services rendered, compensation for which was provided under statutes enacted previous to this year, as follows:

Former payments were made at the rate of $6 per month for Firemen; $8 to Assistant Foremen ; $10 to First Assistant Foremen, and $12 to Foremen :

Samuel G. Brundage paid as First Assistant Foreman; James W. Holler as Fore-man ; Charles May as Second Assistant Foreman, and Herman Wahle, as Second Assistant Foreman for part of their services.

The approval of compensation to the entire list as submitted by the company at the rates previously allowed would equalize the treatment of members who have joined since June 12, 1899, with that given to those of longer standing. The law, however, authorizes the Board of Estimate and Apportionment to appropriate money for those only whose service was continuous to June 12, 1920. It appears therefore that seven of the members listed cannot be paid under the law, since they resigned from the com-pany before June 12, 1920, as shown below:

There are four other members for whom the list indicates a break in continuity. These are Henry Dickert, William Getner, John Holder and George Hubbard. These men did not sever their connection with the company and the omitted period was spent in active military service, as certified in affidavit of James W. Holler, Foreman, filed with application. Yours very truly,

THOMAS J. DRENNAN, Fire Commissioner. (Copies of communication, report, etc., referred to herein, are on file.) On motion, Rule 19 was waived in this matter and the following resolution was

Fire Department-Application of Widow of Fireman Joseph A. Flanagan for Allowance, Pursuant to Chapter 800, Laws of 1920 (Cal. No. 29).

The Committee of the Whole, to which this matter was referred January 13, 1922 (Cal. No. 98), directed that it be restored to the calendar for this meeting and recom-mended its approval.

The Secretary presented the following: 315 East 80th Street, New York City, January 2, 1922.

To Board of Estimate and Apportionment, Municipal Building, New York City: Dear Sirs-In accordance with the provisions of chapter 800 of the Laws of

for the years 1917, 1918 and 1919 to meet the claims, that they should apply to the Board of Aldermen for an issue of special revenue bonds for the purpose.

The Secretary presented a report, dated December 7, 1921, of the Comptroller (printed in the minutes of the meeting held January 20, 1922, Cal. No. 89), submitting for consideration allowance of the claims of eight Nurses in the Department of Health and one in Bellevue Hospital, who were in the service of the Red Cross during the World War, for the payment of the difference between their military and civil compensation. The report stated that in a communication to the Comptroller, dated May 1, 1921, Miss Helen M. Spaulding, formerly employed as a Nurse in the Department of Health, made application for the difference between her military and civil pay, under the provisions of chapter 329 of the Laws of 1920. It appeared from the records of the Department of Health that Miss Spaulding was appointed a Nurse in the department on May 20, 1913, and on February 18, 1915, received an indefinite leave of absence, without pay, to enter the American Red Cross, from which she was discharged on August 11, 1919, and restored to duty in the Department of Health on August 16, 1919, and resigned from said department on May 19, 1920. The report further states that applications from Red Cross Nurses under chapter 329 of the Laws of 1920 have not been enter-tained because they were not considered as having "enlisted in the federal military, naval or marine service," and while it is apparent that Miss Spaulding has no legal claim under this statute, it is evident that she rendered important service to the American Army in France during the World War, and on this account the Board may consider that she is entitled to consideration morally, though her case does not come within the purview of the statute cited. As it was deemed probable that there were other Red Cross Nurses in the City service in the same position as Miss Spaulding, an inquiry was addressed by the Comptroller to those departments which employ nurses, with the result that these eight cases are now submitted to the Board for consideration. The amounts involved in the allowance of the difference in pay to these Nurses aggregate approximately $3,300. The periods covered by such amounts are in the years 1917, 1918 and 1919, and states if there are no funds in those years available for these payments, and it is deemed expedient to make them, it will be necessary for the department concerned to apply to the Board of Aldermen for an issue of special revenue bonds, pursuant to the provisions of subdivision 8 of section 188 of the Charter.

The following resolution was offered: Resolved, That the Board of Estimate and Apportionment hereby approves of

the payment to certain Nurses in the Departments of Health and of Bellevue and Allied Hospitals, of the difference between their pay as employees of the American Red Cross Society or similar organizations during the World War and the pay they would have received as Nurses in the respective city departments during the period of their service with these organizations insofar as said period falls within the time in which the United States actively participated in the World War, as follows:

Department of Health.

-and be it further Resolved, That the Secretary be and he is hereby instructed to notify the Depart-

ments concerned that, if they have no funds available in their appropriations for the years 1917, 1918 and 1919 to meet these claims, that they should apply to the Board of Aldermen for an issue of special revenue bonds for this purpose, pursuant to subdivision 8 of section of the Charter.



The Secretary was directed to communicate with the departments affected.

Hunter College of The City of New York-Transfer of Appropriation (Cal. No. 31).

The Committee of the Whole, to which this matter was referred February 3, 1922 (Cal. No. 177), directed that it be restored to the calendar for this meeting and recom-mended that the request be denied.

The Secretary presented the following Hunter College of the City of New York, Park Avenue and 68th Street, January

27, 1922. To the Board of Estimate and Apportionment of The City of New York:

Gentlemen-I wish to call your attention to the following errors in the Hunter College Budget allowance for 1922, and to respectfully request that the action requested in each case to correct these errors be taken:

Code No. 1050-C, line 9, is printed "2 at $2,725 each, $5,450"; should be "1 at $2,800, 1 at $2,650, $5,450."

The request was for one Assistant Teacher at $2,650 and one at $2,800, and the Proposed Budget was printed in that way.

As the total amount allowed, $5,450, is the same as that requested and as $2,725 does not appear on the salary schedule for Assistant Teacher in the High School, I would respectfully request that the necessary action be taken by the Board of Estimate and Apportionment to correct Budget line 9, Code 1050-C.

Code No. 1050-F, Hunter College Model School, line 1, is printed "Temporary Instructor, $1,122"; should be "Temporary Instructor, $1,215.50."

The amount, $1,215.50, is the pay of a Temporary Instructor for 187 days at $6.50 per diem under chapter 680, Laws of 1920.

A similar mistake was made in printing the Hunter College Budget allowance for 1921 and was corrected by resolution adopted by the Board of Estimate and Appor-tionment on December 9, 1921.

I would therefore respectfully reque-st that the amount, $93.50, required to correct this Budget line be transferred from Code No. 1050-E, line 7, to Code No. 1050-F, line 1. Very truly yours, E. C. HUNT, Secretary.

The following resolution was offered : Resolved, That the Board of Estimate and Apportionment hereby denies the request

of the Secretary, Board of Trustees of Hunter College, under date of January 27, 1922, for the correction of the 1922 Budget schedules Code 1050-C, line 9, and Code 1050-F, line 1, and for the transfer of $93.50 from Code 1050-E, line 7, to Code 1050-F, line 1.



Department of Plant and Structures-Approval of Contract, Specifications, Etc. (Cal. No. 32).

Respectfully submitted,

WM. WIRT MILLS, First Deputy and Acting Commissioner. The following resolution was offered : Resolved, That the Board of Estimate and Apportionment, pursuant to its resolu-

tion of July 11, 1912, hereby approves of form of contract, amended specifications, and estimate of cost in the sum of nineteen thousand dollars ($19,000) for the furnishing of a 300-KW. automatic substation equipment for the Trackless Trolley System between Richmond and Tottenville, Borough of Richmond, under the jurisdiction of the Department of Plant and Structures, the cost thereof to be charged to the fund "CDB-82-A, Trackless Trolley System on Staten Island, Electric Generator, Overhead Installation and Connections"; provided, however, that if no bids are received for said work within the estimate of cost herein approved, the amount of such estimate of cost may be reconsidered by the Board of Estimate and Apportionment, or its duly authorized representative, provided that any of such bids is within the amount authorized and available for said work.

Police Department-Application of the Widow of Patrolman Charles D. Potter for Allowance, Pursuant to Chapter 800, Laws of 1920 (Cal. No. 34). The Committee of the Whole, to which this matter was referred January 20,1922

(Cal. No. 98), directed that it be restored to the calendar for this meeting and recommended that the application be denied.

The Secretary presented a report, dated January 11, 1922, of the Police Commis-sioner (printed in the minutes of the meeting of January 20, 1922 (Cal. No. 98), relative to the application of widow of Patrolman Charles D. Potter, for an allow-ance equal to the annual salary received by her late husband, who was killed in the performance of his duty. The Police Commissioner submitted statements of the cit.:: cunistances surrounding the death of this patrolman, advised that the application seems to come within the provisions of Chapter 800 of the Laws of 1920 and recom-mended favorable consideration by the Board.

A resolution to carry into effect the recommendation of the Committee failed of adoption, receiving the following vote:

Affirmative-The Mayor, the Comptroller, the Acting President of the Borough of Brooklyn and the Presidents of the Boroughs of The Bronx, Queens and Rich- ntond-11.

Present and not voting-The President of the Board of Aldermen and the Presi-dent of the Borough of Manhattan.

Section 226 of the Charter requires 12 affirmative votes for the adoption of a resolution of this character upon its original presentation to the Board.

The matter was therefore laid over one week (March 17, 1922).

Register, Kings County-Amendment of 1922 Budget, Code 3396 (Cal. No. 35). The Secretary presented a communication, dated January 16, 1922, from the

This matter was COM-rnunicated to the Board as affecting the audit of payrolls.

The Committee of the Whole, to which the matter was referred January 27, 1922 (Cal. No. 152), directed that it be restored to the calendar for this meeting and recommended that it be filed.

The communication was ordered filed. •

Teachers' Retirement System-Appointment of Temporary Clerks (Cal. No. 37). The Committee of the Whole, to which this matter was referred February 3, 1922

(Cal. No. 191), directed that it be restored to the calendar for this meeting and recom-• mended that the request be denied.

The Secretary presented the following: Teachers' Retirement System of the City of New York, Municipal Building, Jan-

uary 28, 1922. Board of Estimate and Apportionment, Municipal Building, New York City:

Gentlemen-At the meeting of the Teachers' Retirement Board held on January 24, 1922, the following resolution was adopted :

Resolved, That the Teachers' Retirement Board hereby directs its Actuary to pre-pare an estimate of the increased cost to the City and to the Teachers of basing the retirement allowances of Teachers on the average salary received from August 1, 1920, to the date of retirement, if retirement takes place on or before August 1, 1925, and if after that date, on the average salary received for the last five years of service instead of the average salary received for the last ten years of service now used as a basis under the law. The Board hereby directs that the Secretary request the Board of Estimate and Apportionment to appropriate such amount not to exceed $1,000 as shall be estimated as necessary to cover the cost of additional employees required to make the necessary calculations.

In accordance with that resolution I hereby request on behalf of the Teachers' Retirement Board an appropriation of $900 for the purpose of employing Actuarial Clerks at various rates not exceeding $10 per diem. It is anticipated that the duration of any appointment made will not exceed one month and that all appointments will be made on a daily basis.

During the year 1921 and in previous years the Board of Estimate has granted permission to appoint persons in the temporary lines of the budget of the Teachers' Retirement System, Code 1071, as the exigencies of the service required. Such permis-sion has resulted in economy to the City in that the board, by having authority to appoint, has engaged employees for short periods of time and has felt safe in dropping them immediately upon the completion of any undertaking, knowing that as the next seasonal task presented itself there would be no difficulty in securing additional help. Request is made for permission to fill vacancies or to make appointments to these temporary lines as need may arise during the year. A saving can probably be made in the present special work if this permission be received along with the special appropriation of the funds. Very truly yours, MAGNUS GROSS, Secretary.

The following resolution was offered: Resolved, That the Board of Estimate and Apportionment hereby denies the request

of the Secretary of the Teachers' Retirement System under date of January 28, 1922, for an appropriation of $900 for the purposes of employing Actuarial Clerks at various rates not exceeding $10 per diem, for an anticipated period not exceeding one month for any appointment.

Transit Commission-Relocation of New York and Queens County Railway and Brooklyn City Railway Companies Tracks in Jackson Avenue and Fresh Pond Road, Borough of Queens (Cal. No. 38).

The Committee on Finance and Budget, to which two communications, dated May 19, 1921, from the President, Borough of Queens, were referred May 20, 1921 (Cal. Nos. 228 and 229), directed that they be restored to the calendar for the meeting of July 29, 1921, and recommended approval.

(On July 29, 1921 (Cal. Nos. 292 and 293), the matter was laid over until August 2, 1921.)

(On August 2, 1921 (Cal. Nos. 29 and 30), it was laid over until August 12, 1921, and the Secretary was directed to request the Corporation Counsel to advise the Board as to what remedy, if any, is open to the City other than that provided for in chapter 699 of the Laws of 1921; and whether said statute is a valid enactment.)

(On August 12 (Cal. Nos. 29 and 30) and September 30, 1921 (Cal Nos. 30 and 31), the matter was laid over ; on the latter date until October 7, 1921.)

(On October 7, 1921 (Cal. Nos. 26 and 27), the communications were again pre-sented (printed in the minutes of said meeting) and resolutions were adopted making application to the Transit Commission for an order directing the New York and Queens County Railway and the Brooklyn City Railway Companies to change the location of their tracks from the present locations.)

(On January 6, 1922 (Cal. No. 226), two communications, dated December 13, 1921, from the Secretary of the Transit Commission, in this matter, advising that the applications of the Board were defective, were presented and referred to the Com-mittee of the Whole.)

(On March 3, 1922 (Cal. No. 240), a communication, dated February 27, 1922 from the Acting President of the Borough of Queens, was presented, and referred to the Committee of the Whole.)

The Committee of the Whole directed that the matter be restored to the calendar for this meeting and recommended that the Transit Commission be requested to make its determination with regard to the relocation of the tracks in Fresh Pond road and Jackson avenue, and that after action of the Transit Commission, before any steps are taken to incur liability against the City of New York, that the matter be resubmitted to the Board.

The Secretary presented two communications, dated December 13, 1921, from the Secretary of the Transit Commission, advising that the hearing in Case No. 2623, Re-location of tracks in Jackson avenue, Borough of Queens, and in Case No. 2624, Relocation of tracks in Fresh Pond road, Borough of Queens, was adjourned subject to call, for the reason that no proper applications, pursuant to chapter 699 of the Laws of 1921, were before the Commission. This adjournment was had in order to give the Board of Estimate and Apportionment an opportunity to remedy the defect if it so desires.

The Secretary also presented the following: City of New York, Office of the President of the Borough of Queens, Long

Island City, February 27, 1922. The Board of Estimate and Apportionment of The City of New York:

Gentlemen-On May 19, 1921, I adddressed to your honorable Board two com-munications relative to the relocation of tracks in Fresh Pond road and in Jackson avenue, copies of which I enclose herewith. On November 16 and November 21, 1921, in consequence of a communication from your Board, the Transit Commission held hearings on these matters, but refused to act thereon because of the wording of the communication.

I am unofficially informed that since the hearings above referred to the counsel, both of the City and of the Transit Commission, have agreed upon a form of request that will be satisfactory to both parties, and under which the Transit Com-mission believe that they can lawfully act.

I wish to strongly urge immediate action on the part of your Board, as condi-tions on both of the above mentioned streets, which are important thoroughfares, are in such a state as to interfere seriously with traffic, and conditions are rapidly becoming worse. Respectfully,

BENJAMIN MARVIN, Acting President, Borough of Queens. (Copies of communications referred to herein are on file.) The following resolution was offered: Resolved, That the Board of Estimate and Apportionment, pursuant to the pro-

visions of chapter 699 of the Laws of 1921, and without waiving the contention of the City that chapter 134 of the Laws of 1921 is unconstitutional and void, hereby makes application to the Transit Commission for an order directing the New York and Queens County Railway Company to change the location of its tracks in Jackson avenue between Junction avenue and 51st street, Borough of Queens, from their present location to the centre of said Jackson avenue, and to determine the manner in which the cost and expense of such relocation of such railroad tracks shall be imposed and borne, in order to provide for the proposed improvement of the roadway of said Jackson avenue between said limits as authorized by the Board of Estimate and Apportionment on AKil 9, 1920.

Haven Avenue from Fort Washington Avenue to West 170th Street; Borough of Manhattan-Paving, Curbing, and Recurbing (Cal. No. 41).

(On July 1, 1921 (Cal. No. 141), this matter was referred to the Committee on Finance and Budget.)

The Secretary presented a communication, dated June 25, 1921, from the Acting President of the Borough of Manhattan, herein, and the following report of the Committee of the Whole:

February 17, 1922. Board of Estimate and Apportionment:

Gentlemen-At the meeting of the Committee of the Whole held on February 14, 1924 a report was presented by the Chief Engineer concerning a communication from the Acting President of the Borough of Manhattan, requesting the rescission of the resolutions granting preliminary and final authorizations for paving with asphalt (permanent pavement), and for curbing and recurbing Haven avenue from Fort Washington avenue to \Vest 170th street. (Referred to the Committee on Finance and Budget July 1, 1921-Cal. No. 141.)

In view of this report, which is appended hereto, it is recommended that the resolutions of October 3, 1912, and April .3, 1913, granting preliminary and final authorizations, respectively, be rescinded.

It is also recommended that the Borough President. be requested to reimbuse the Street Improvement bund for the expenditures made in connection with this authori-zation by a transfer of the necessary funds from some appropriate account.

Respectfully, MURRAY HULBERT, Acting Mayor, Acting Chairman, Com-mittee of the Whole.

Report No. 21705. January 25, 1922, Committee of the Whole, Board of Estimate and Apportionment:

Gentlemen-At the meeting of the Board of Estimate and Apportionment held on July 1, 1921 (Cal. No. 141), the Chief Engineer was instructed to submit a report to the Committee on Finance and Budget concerning a communication from the Acting President of the Borough of Manhattan, bearing date of June 25th, requesting the adop-tion of a resolution rescinding the authorizations heretofore accorded in the matter of paving with asphalt (permanent pavement), curbing and recurbing Haven avenue from Fort Washington avenue to West 170th street.

Preliminary authorization for paving these two blocks of Haven avenue was given under the provisions of a resolution adopted by the Board of Estimate and Apportion-ment on October 3, 1912, and this was followed on April 3, 1913, by the authorization of the construction. It appears from informal information received at the Bureau of Highways that certain contemplated development was deferred so that there was no urgency for the work in the block between Fort Washington, avenue and West 169th street. Under these conditions the Local Board rescinded its initiatory resolution of June 18, 1912, and adopted a new resolution relating only to the block between West 169th street and West 170th street, which alternate project was given final authorization by the Board on July 15, 1921.

I am advised that expenses amounting to $94.63 were incurred in connection with the authorization of October 3, 1912.

In order to clear the Board records I would recommend the adoption of a resolu-tion rescinding the resolutions of October 3, 1912, and April 3, 1913, under which pre liminary and final authorizations, respectively, were given for paving Haven avenue from Fort Washington avenue to West 170th street. •

I would also recommend that the Borough President be requested to reimburse the Street Improvement Fund for the expenditures heretofore made in connection with this authorization by a transfer of the necessary funds from some appropriate account credited to the Borough. Respectfully,

ARTHUR S. TUTTLE, Chief Engineer. The following resolution was offered: Resolved, That the Board of Estimate and Apportionment, in accordance with

the recommendation contained in the report of the Committee of the Whole, dated February 17, 1922, hereby rescinds the resolution adopted by the Board on October 3, 1912, granting preliminary authorization for paving with a permanent sheet asphalt pavement on concrete foundation, curbing and recurbing Haven avenue, from the west curb line of Fort Washington avenue to the south curb line of 170th street, and all other necessary work incidental thereto, Borough of Manhattan.



The following resolution was offered: Resolved, That the Board of Estimate and Apportionment, in accordance with

the recommendation contained in the report of the Committee of the Whole, dated February 17, 1922, hereby rescinds the resolution adopted by the Board on April 3, 1913, granting final authorization for paving with a permanent sheet asphalt pavement on concrete foundation, curbing and recurbing Haven avenue, from the west curb line of Fort Washington avenue to the south curb line of 170th street, and all other necessary work incidental thereto, Borough of Manhattan.



The Secretary was directed to call the attention of the President of the Borough of Manhattan to the need of reimbursing the Street Improvement Fund from some appro-priate account for the expenditure made in connection with this authorization.

Industrial Aid Bureau-Increase in Number of Temporary Assistants (Cal. No. 42).

The Committee of the Whole, to which this matter was referred January 20 (Cal. No. 172) and February 17, 1922 (Cal. No. 57), directed that it be restored to the cal-endar for this meeting and recommended its approval.

The Secretary presented the following: City of New York, Department of Public Welfare, Municipal Building, January

12, 1922. To the Honorable Board of Estimate and Apportionment, Municipal Building, New

York City : Gentlemen-This Department is in receipt of a resolution adopted by your

honorable Board on December 2, 1921 (Cal. No. 216), which authorized an appropriation of $40,000 to establish and maintain free emergency shelters under the jurisdiction of the Industrial Aid Bureau, in accordance with the provisions of section 3 of chapter 404 of the Laws of 1919.

This resolution also provides for the fixation of the compensation of temporary assistants employed to carry on the Industrial Aid Bureau, as follows : Industrial Aid Helper, Senior (such as Shelter Manager, Bookkeeper, etc.), not exceeding a maximum of $125 per month for seven (7) incumbents.

I would therefore request that the number of incumbents in this line be increased to read ten, same to receive the $125 per month.

This request is necessary. In order to properly carry on the work of this Bureau, compensation must be provided at the higher rate of $125 per month so that most careful supervision may be given to this important work.

Trusting that this may meet with your honorable Board's approval, I am, Very truly yours, C. W. GORMLY, First Deputy and Acting Commissioner. The following resolution was offered: Resolved, That the resolution adopted by the Board of Estimate and Apportionment

on December 2, 1921, in part, fixing the rate of compensation of temporary Assistants to carry on the Industrial Aid Bureau, be and the same is hereby amended, by striking out in the line

"Industrial Aid Helper, Senior (such as Shelter Manager, Bookkeeper, etc.)-Not exceeding a maximum of $125 per month-7"

The number "7" and by inserting in lieu thereof the number 15, thereby approving of an increase in the number of incumbents from 7 to 15.

Department of Street Cleaning-Disposal of Ashes and Garbage in the City of New York (Cal. No. 43).

The Secretary presented a communication dated December 3, 1921, from the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce, relative to the disposal of City Waste and requesting that a public hearing be given by the Board for the purpose of discussing and agreeing upon an economical system for the disposal of ashes and garbage in the City of New York.

The Committee of the Whole, to which this matter was referred December 9, 1921 (Cal. No. 70), directed that it be restored to the calendar for this meeting and recom-mended that it be referred to the Special Committee on Disposal of Ashes, Garbage, etc.

The communication was referred to the Special Committee consisting of the Chief of the Fire Department; the Chief Engineer, Board of Estimate and Apportionment; the Chief Engineer, Department of Water Supply, Gas and Electricity; the Chief Engineer, Department of Plant and Structures; the Commissioner of Health; the Chairman, Board of Standards and Appeals; the Consulting Engineer, Borough of Manhattan; the Consulting Engineer, Borough of Brooklyn; the Consulting Engineer, Borough of The Bronx; the Acting Commissioner of Street Cleaning, and the Com-missioner of Docks, for investigation and report.

Board of Estimate and Apportionment-Legislation Affecting The City of New York in Relation to the Establishment of Motor Bus Routes and Operation of Buses (Cal. No. 44).

The Secretary presented a report dated February 4, 1922, from the Acting Corpora-tion Counsel (printed in the minutes of February 10, 1922 (Cal. No. 153), in response to motion adopted by the Board on January 27, 1922 (Cal. No. 3), requesting the Corporation Counsel to prepare a bill and cause same to be introduced in both houses of the Legislature on January 30, 1922, conferring upon the City such authority as may be necessary to establish, maintain and operate a bus system throughout the City of New York. The report stated that on January 9, 1922, a bill was introduced in the Senate and in the Assembly to amend the charter in relation to the establishment and operation of municipal bus lines. This bill was originally prepared for introduction in the Legislature of 1921 and confers comprehensive powers _upon the Board of Estimate and Apportionment in regard to the establishment of bus routes, so that it would seem to be unnecessary to prepare another bill. A copy of said bill was sub-mitted with the communication.

The Committee of the Whole, to which this matter was referred February 10, 1922 (Cal. No. 153), directed that it be restored to the calendar for this meeting and recom-mended that it be filed.

The report was ordered filed.

His Honor the Mayor made the following statement: The Committee on Cities of the Assembly has gone out of existence without having

acted upon the bill which authorizes The City of New York to buy new motor buses and operate the same for a five-cent fare. This places the bill in the hands of the autocratic Rules Committee of the Assembly, which is controlled by the up-State Re-publican machine. Responsibility for the conduct of this committee is in the hands of the Republican party and the Governor.

The City of New York has tried on three successive occasions to induce a Re-publican Legislature to empower the City to municipally operate new and efficient buses on the City's streets. Each time its attempt has been frustrated by the refusal of the Legislature to pass the enabling act. The bill was not even reported out of committee.

The same situation exists in the Republican Legislature this year, and efforts are being made by the traction-controlled Republican leaders to smother the bill. In spite of the fact the measure is of first moment to the people of this City, no public hearing has been accorded. The plan is to kill it in secret in committee. The execution of this scheme can only be prevented by a united protest and action on the part of civic or-ganizations and by the people of this City generally.

This should be followed up by a bombardment of the City's legislators by these civic bodies and the people generally so that they too may bring pressure to bear on their up-State Republican associates to compel them to grant a hearing on the bill.

This situation affords an opportunity for the newspapers that profess to be con-cerned with the people's welfare to bestir themselves into proper activity by way of asking that this bill be reported on and passed by the Legislature. Such newspapers would thus be doing something in the people's interest and of credit to themselves.

It is no answer to the refusal of the traction wing of the Republican party to permit the passage of this bill that some provision is made for a sham scheme of partial bus operation in the tentative and unsound plan of the State Transit Commission. It is to prevent the perpetuation of the financial wrong involved in this State Com-mission plan that makes the passage of the City's bus bill imperative.

The Transit Commission's plan contemplates using bus franchises and privileges valued at many millions of dollars for the benefit of the traction interests. The City, under the bill now in Albany, intends to keep these immensely valuable bus franchises and privileges as City property.

The bus bill should be reported out of committee and a public hearing should be held so that the voice and sentiment of the people of New York City who use the buses and the jammed subways daily may be heard in the halls of the Legislature in favor of the measure.

The following was offered: Whereas, There is pending before the Legislature a bill to enable The City of

New York to buy buses for municipal operation on City streets. Whereas, Said bill known as Assembly Bill No. 896, Int. 859, is now in the Com-

mittee of Rules of the Assembly; Whereas, Said bill will not be reported out of Committee for action thereon by

the Legislature unless action is insistently demanded by this body; and Whereas, The transportation needs of the. people of this City and the public

interest not only require but demand immediate favorable action on this measure; therefore be it

Resolved, By the Board of Estimate and Apportionment of the City of New York, that request be and hereby is made for the immediate reporting of this bill out of the Rules Committee and the passage of the same in both the Assembly and Senate to the end that it may become a law forthwith.; and be it further

Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be forwarded forthwith to every member of the Legislature.



Port of New York Authority-Opposition to Plan (Cal. No. 45). The Secretary presented a communication, dated February 1, 1922, from the Chair-

man of the Tunnel Committee of the Staten Island Civic League, submitting copy of resolution adopted by said Association disapproving the Port Authority plan and favor-ing the construction of the Staten Island Tunnel.

The Committee of the Whole, to which this matter was referred February 10, 1922


(Cal. No. 156), directed that it be restored to the calendar foe this meeting, and, recom-mended that it be filed.

Street System-Territory Bounded by 25th Street, Mansfield Avenue, 27th Street, Astoria Avenue, 28th Street and Schurz Avenue, Borough of Queens -Approval of Map Showing Subdivision of Private Property (Cal. No. 46).

(On March 3, 1922 (Cal. No. 250), this matter was referred to the Committee on City Plan and Public Improvements.)

The Secretary presented a communication, dated February 20, 1922, from the President, Borough of Queens, herein, and the following report of the Committee on City Plan and Public Improvements :

Board of Estimate and Apportionment: Gentlemen-At the meeting of the Committee on City Plan and Public Improve-

ments held on this date, a report was presented by the Chief Engineer concerninga map showing a proposed subdivision of property within the territory bounded approximately by 25th street, Mansfield avenue, 27th street, Astoria avenue, 28th street and Schurz avenue, Borough of Queens, designated as "Map of Property of Frank Fitterer," which matter was referred to your Committee by the Board at its meeting of March 3,. 1922 (Cal. No. 250).

From the Chief Engineer's report, a copy of which is appended hereto, it appears that the street system upon which the proposed subdivision is based agrees with that as laid out upon the City map.

Under the statutory provisions the map will have to be acted upon on or before March 14, 1922, or filed in the form presented.

The Committee recommends that the plan be approved. Respectfully submitted, HENRY BRUCKNER, President, Borough of The Bronx, Chairman, Committee

on City Plan and Public Improvements. • Report No. 21867. March 4, 1922.

Committee on City Plan and Public Improvements, Board of Estimate and Appor-tionment:

Gentlemen-At the meeting of the Board of Estimate and Apportionment held on March 3, 1922 (Cal. No. 250), the Chief Engineer was instructed to submit a report to your Committee concerning a communication from the President of the Borough of Queens, addressed to the Board under date of February 20, 1922, transmitting for approval a map showing a proposed subdivision of property within the territory bounded approximately by 25th street, Mansfield avenue, 27th street, Astoria avenue, 28th street and Schurz avenue, designated as "Map of Property of Frank Fitterer."

The map has been prepared pursuant to the provisions of chapter 513 of the Laws of 1916. It was received in the office of the Secretary on February 21, 1922, and undee the terms of the statute it must be acted upon by the Board on or before March 14, 1922, or it will have to be filed in the form presented.

The street system upon which the proposed subdivision is based agrees with that as laid out upon the City map.

The map appears to be a proper one and its approval is recommended. Respectfully, ARTHUR S. TUTTLE, Chief Engineer. The following resolution was offered: Resolved, That the Board of Estimate and Apportionment, pursuant to the pro-

visions of section 1540 of the Greater New York Charter, as amended by chapter 5.13 of the Laws of 1916, hereby approves the map showing a proposed subdivision of property within the territory bounded approximately by 25th street, Mansfield avenue, 27th street, Astoria avenue, 28th street and Schurz avenue, Borough of Queens, designated as "Map of Property of Frank Fitterer, situated in the Second Ward, Borough of Queens, City of New York"; said map having been approved in quadrupli-cate by the President of the Borough of Queens on February 20, 1922, and having been transmitted by the Borough President to and received in the office of the Secretary of the Board on February 21, 1922.



March 7, 1922. Board of Estimate and Apportionment:

Gentlemen-At the meeting of the Committee on City Plan and Public Improve-merits held on this date a report was presented by the Chief Engineer concerning a map showing a proposed subdivision of property within the territory bounded approximately by Ward avenue, a line ranging from 100 feet to about 176 feet northerly from Nixon avenue, Church street, St. Paul's avenue and Cebra avenue, Borough of Richmond, designated as "Map of Woodcrest Park," which matter was referred to your Committee by the Board at its meeting of March 3, 1922 (Cal. No. 258).

From the Chief Engineer's report, a copy of which is appended hereto, it appears that with the exception of a modification in the alignment of Nixon avenue the streets upon which the proposed subdivision is based agree with those as shown upon a tentative map approved by the Board in 1910, and information is presented to show that the proposed street plan will be subsequently incorporated upon the City map.

Under the statutory provisions the map will have to be acted upon on or before March 16. 1922, or filed in the form presented.

The Committee recommends that the plan be approved. Respectfully submitted, HENRY BRUCKNER, President. Borough of The Bronx, Chairman, Committee

on City Plan and Public Improvements. Report No. 21869. March 4, 1922.

Committee on City Plan and Public Improvements, board of Estimate and Appor-tionment:

Gentlemen-At the meeting of the Board of Estimate and Apportionment held on March 3, 1922 (Cal. No. 258), the Chief Engineer was instructed to submit a report to your Committee concerning a communication from the Acting Commissioner of Public Works, borough of Richmond, addressed to the Board under date of February 23, 1922, transmitting for approval a map showing a proposed subdivision of property within the territory bounded approximately by Ward avenue, a line ranging from 100 feet to about 176 feet northerly from Nixon avenue, Church street, St. Pauls avenue and Cebra avenue, designated as "Map of Wcodcrest Park."

The map has been prepared pursuant to the provisions of chapter 513 of the'Laws of 1916. It was received in the office of the Secretary on February 23, 1922, and under the terms of the statute it must be acted upon by the Board on or before March 16, 1922, or it will have to be filed in the form presented.

The treatment proposed upon the plan involves a modification in the alignment of Nixon avenue as heretofore shown upon the tentative map of this section of the Bor-ough approved by the Board in 1910, designed to permit of a more economical develop-ment of the property and avoid damage to buildings. The remaining streets agree with those as shown upon the tentative plan.

Information has been presented to show that the streets upon which the subdivision is based will be subsequently incorporated upon the City map.

The map appears to be a proper one and its approval is recommended. Respectfully, ARTHUR S. TUTTLE, Chief Engineer. The following resolution was offered : Resolved, That the Board of Estimate and Apportionment, pursuant to the pro-

visions of section 1540 of the Greater New York Charter, as amended by chapter 513 of the Laws of 1916, hereby approves the map showing a proposed subdivision of property within the territory bounded approximately by Ward avenue, a line ranging from 100 feet to about 176 feet northerly from Nixon avenue. Church street, St. Pauls avenue and Cebra avenue, Borough of Richmond, designated as "Map of Wood-crest Park, Ward's Hill, Tompkinsville, S. I., Second Ward, Borough of Richmond, New York City"; said map having been approved in quadruplicate by the Acting

President of the Borough of Richmond on February 23, 1922, and having been transmitted by the Acting Borough President to and received in the office of the Secretary of the Board on February 23, 1922.

Queens County Fund for Salary and Wage Accruals: Payments to Charitable Institutions ; District Attorney, Queens County-Transfer of Funds (Cal. No. 48).

(On January 27, 1922 (Cal. No. 167-D), this matter was referred to the Comp-troller.)

The Secretary presented a communication, dated January 18, 1922, from the District Attorney, Queens County, herein, and the following report of the Comptroller :

March 2, 1922. To the Board of Estimate and Apportionment, The City of New York:

Gentlemen-On January 27, 1922 (Cal. No. 167-D), your board referred to the Comptrollers communication dated January 18, 1922, from the District Attorney, Queens County, requesting the transfer of $1,644.02, within the 1921 appropriations to that office. An Examiner reports as follows:

"The purpose of the request is to provide additional funds to the amount of $144.02 in Code No. 3545, Expenses in Extradition of Fugitive Criminals, and $1,481.41, in Code No. 3542, Transportation.

"The Budget appropriation to Cade No. 3545 was $500 of which $456.58 has been expended, leaving a balance of $43.42, against which there are outstanding obli-gations of $187.44, expenditures incurred in the extradition of Frank E. Barker, from Chicago, Illinois, and Joseph P. Meredith, from Raleigh, N. C., creating a deficit of 1444.02.

"The Budget appropriation to Code 3542, Transportation, was $6,000, of which $5,948.09 has been expended, leaving a balance of $51.91, against which there are outstanding obligations of $1,533.32 for carfare and automobile hire, creating a deficit of $1,481.41.

"The overencumbrance of the accounts sought to be replenished was in viola-tion of section 1542 of the Charter, and in explanation thereof, the Acting District Attorney states that apparently there were sufficient funds in Code No. 3545, to last until the end of the year, and that the' extradition, expenses which it is now sought to pay were incurred late in December, too close to the end of the year to permit of an application for replenishment of the fund to be made in advance.

"Of the overencumbrance of the Transportation Account, the Acting District Attorney states that this represents expenditures incurred during the last three months of 1921, by the Investigator, County Detectives and Process Servers; that a far larger number of subpoenas, notice and other papers were served last year than in any previous year, and that more than twenty murder cases were disposed of in 1921, besides many more crimes requiring careful investigation. Prohibition enforcement, he states, added to the expense of the office, and the staff was greatly increased in 1921 to meet these new demands and to handle the great number of major crimes tried during 1921. That in October it seemed that there might be sufficient funds in the Transportation Account to last until the, end of the year, and it was not possible to foresee the amount that would be necessary and that all of these expenditures were necessary to carry on the proper prosecution of crime in Queens County.

"There are no funds within the 1921 appropriations of the District Attorney available for transfer. If the Board desires to grant the request, the necessary amount may be obtained from Code 3639, Queens County Fund for Salary and Wage Accruals, and Payments to Charitable Institutions, Queens County, Code 3578, St. Joseph's Institute for the Improved Instruction of Deaf Mutes. All of the bilLs for this institution have been paid, leaving a balance of $735.11.

"The failure of the District Attorney to have obtained the funds necessary for the purposes of the office through the means provided by law is not satisfactorily justified by the explanation offered by the Acting District Attorney." The foregoing is submitted for the consideration of the Board. Respectfully,

CHARLES L. CRAIG, Comptroller. The following resolution was offered : Resolved, That the Board of Estimate and Apportionment, pursuant to the pro-

visions of section 237 of the Greater New York Charter, hereby approves of the transfer of funds within appropriations made for Queens County for the year 1921, as follows:

this matter was referred to the Comptroller.) The Secretary presented two communications, dated November 14, 1921, and January

14, 1922, from the Secretary, Board of Education, herein, and the following report of the Comptroller :

February 23, 192'2. To the Board of Estimate and Apportionment, The City of New York:

Gentlemen-On November 18, 1921 (Cal. No. 387-F-2), there was referred to the Comptroller a communication, dated November 14, 1921, from the Secretary, Board of Education, transmitting resolution adopted by the said Board requesting a transfer of $1,724.84 within the Special School Fund for 1920. On January 20, 1922 (Cal. No. 159), an amendment of the request was referred to the Comptroller. An Examiner reporting thereon states:

"The request as amended is to transfer the sum of $1,724.84, from line 34, Jani-torial Supplies and Equipment, in Code 851, to line 32. Fuel, in the same code.

"The allowance granted in 1920 for Fuel was $1,347,078.46, and on May 13, 1921 (Cal. No. 98), a transfer of $10,626.94 was made thereto, making a total available of $1,357,705.40. The unexpended balance in the account is $12.27, and there are out-standing bills for fuel amounting to $1,724.84.

"There is sufficient balance in line 34, Janitorial Supplies and Equipment, to permit of the proposed transfer, the unencumbered balance being $2,298.06, and it is certified that this account will not need replenishment.

"It is stated that the reason for not making the request earlier is that several bills were held pending the completion of repairs to sehool property which had been damaged by the coal contractors, in making deliveries, and that a number of the bills are `remissible' payments which, under the specifications of the contracts, are not to be paid until contracts are completed, necessitating said bills being checked back very carefully." The adoption of the attached resolution will give effect to the proposed transfer and

will grant the request of the Board of Education. Respectfully submitted, CHARLES L. CRAIG, Comptroller.

The following resolution was offered : Resolved. That the Board of Estimate and Apportionment, pursuant to the provi-

sions of section 237 of the Greater New York Charter, hereby approves of the transfer

Department of Parks, Borough of Brooklyn—Application of Edward It Mooney for Release from Liquidated Damages (Cal. No. 50).

(On December 9, 1921 (Cal. No. 69), this matter was referred to the Comptroller.) The Secretary presented a communication, dated November 21, 1921, from Edward

H. Mooney, herein, and the following report of the Comptroller: March 7, 1922.

To the Honorable the Board of Estimate and Apportionment: Gentlemen—Under and pursuant to section 418 of the Greater New York Charter,

Edward H. Mooney made an application to your Board (Cal. No. 69, meeting of December 9, 1921) for full allowance, and for your favorable recommendation to the Board of Aldermen, of his application (No. M-2458) for a release from penalties aggregating $500, imposed as liquidated damages and exacted against his Contract No. 42159 entered into by him with the Department of Parks, Brooklyn, for the removal of the old pier at Dreamland Park, Coney Island.

At said meeting your Board referred the matter to the Comptroller. The facts as I find them are that said Edward H. Mooney entered into said

contract to remove the pier at Dreamland, Coney Island ; that he did so remove said pier, but that in doing so he did not complete his contract until fifty working days in excess of the contract period had run, and for said fifty days he was penalized, as liquidated damages, at the contract rate of $10 per day, a total of $500; that his inability to perform within the contract period was because he was unable to obtain a dredge and necessary floating equipment with which to finish his work. The Federal Government having commandeered the dredges and floating equipment within this harbor; that so soon as he could obtain a dredge and the necessary floating equip-ment, he did so and finished his contract, as stated by applicant and Park Commissioner Harman, said Commissioner also stating that the City suffered no damage due to such delay.

In applicant's general release given on said contract he excepted the sum of $500, deducted as aforesaid.

On the facts, sworn to by Mr. Mooney and stated by Commissioner Harman, I suggest—if your Board by unanimous vote determines that the City suffered no damage because of the delay in completing said contract; that the delay was not due to appli-cant's act and that the interests of the City will be best subserved by releasing Edward H. Mooney from the penalty imposed on him in the aggregate of $500—that your Board recommend the Board of Aldermen to release said Edward H. Mooney from the said penalty incurred under his said contract; except for $10 on contract No. 42159, one day's penalty, to be paid as nominal damages.

A resolution to that effect is presented herewith. Respectfully, CHARLES L. CRAIG, Comptroller.

The following resolution was offered: Resolved, That the Board of Estimate and Apportionment, pursuant to the provi-

sions of section 418 of the Greater New York Charter, hereby unanimously recommends to the Board of Aldermen that Edward H. Mooney be released from liquidated damages accrued under Contract No. 42159 made with the Department of Parks, Brooklyn, except for $10 to be paid as nominal damages.

County Court and Surrogate's Court, Richthond County—Transfer of Appropri-ation (Cal. No. 52).

(On February 10, 1922 (Cal. No. 228-C), this matter was referred to the Comp-troller.)

The Secretary presented a communication, dated January 6, 1922, from the County Judge and Surrogate, Richmond County, herein, and the following report of the Comptroller :

February 28, 1922. To the Board of Estimate and Apportionment, The City of New York:

Gentlemen—On February 10, 1922 (Cal. No. 228-C), your Board referred to the Comptroller a request from the County Judge and Surrogate, Richmond County, dated January 10, 1922, for the transfer of funds between certain appropriations made to his office for the year 1921.

An Examiner reports as follows : "Request is made for the transfer of $61.95 to 1921 Code 3712, Office Equip-

ment, to provide for payment of a bill amounting to $73 for a new filing case said to have been absolutely necessary for the installation of a card index system, the lack of which was a handicap to the office.

"This filing case was not requested in the 1921 departmental estimate. It was expected to purchase it from the 1922 appropriation, but the request was cut down from $600 to $75. For that reason it was ordered some time in December, as soon as the accounts of the office showed that balances in the required amount would be available for transfer. The filing case was not delivered and put into use until January, 1922.

"This request contemplates the use of 1921 balances to pay for equipment not received until 1922. Such a transfer would be in direct contravention of section 237 of the Greater New York Charter, and it is recommended that it be denied.

"Request is made for a transfer of $38.99 to 1921 Code 3714, Contingencies. This sum, with the balance of 69 cents still in the account, is needed to pay an outstanding bill for carfare for the Probation Officer.

"It is stated that part of the deficit in this account is due to the fact that unforeseen expenses for a Temporary Stenographer for a Visiting County Judge, amounting to about $20, was charged to this account in the absence of a specific appropriation, and that an increase in the number of cases assigned to the Probation Officer caused additional expenditures for carfare.

"There is a balance of $60.10 in 1921 Code 3711, Supplies, from which the $38.99 needed for this transfer may be taken." Attached hereto, for your consideration are resolutions approving the transfer of

$38.99 to 1921 Code 3714, and denying the requested transfer of $61.95 to 1921 Code 3712. Respectfully, CHARLES L. CRAIG, Comptroller.

The following resolution was offered : Resolved, That the Board of Estimate and Apportionment, pursuant to the pro.-

visions of section 237 of the Greater New York Charter, hereby approves of the transfer of funds within appropriations made for the County Judge and Surrogate, Richmond County, for the year 1921, as follows:

William N. Wagner—Claim of (Cal. No. 51). The Secretary presented the following:

February 28, 1922. To the Honorable the Board of Estimate and Apportionment:

Gentlemen—Pursuant to the provisions of section 246 of the Greater New York Charter, I hereby certify that a claim has been presented by William N. Wagner doing business under the trade name of "F. Wagner's Son," in an aggregate sum of $522.95 alleged to be due him for labor and materials furnished Bellevue and Allied Hospitals in January, April and June, 1916, and November, 1918, in repairing ambulances and other hospital vehicles, for which no open market orders were issued and for which no payments have been made ; that said labor and materials were furnished in good faith on emergency orders—with but one exception—to keep the several vehicles in running order, and were needed, accepted and used by Bellevue and Allied Hospitals; that said claim has been duly examined, and the examination thereof shows that the cost to claimant for such labor and supplies, without profit, interest or other charges, forms an aggregate of $497.05, and to that extent it is just and reasonable.

That the delay in presenting this claim was due to claimant's ignorance of the necessary action on his part to have it paid; that during the twenty-five years he has been repairing vehicles for Bellevue and Allied Hospitals he has done it largely on verbal orders on assurances that open market orders would later be issued to him on which he would be paid; that in some instances he had to wait months and years before such orders were issued and he was paid; that he frequently asked the Purchasing Agent and Bookkeepers for payment of this claim, and was assured by them that pay-ment would be made and he thought it would be paid as former claims had been; that during the war and to the beginning of this year the Bookkeeping Division was alleged to have been undermanned; that the Purchasing Agent's office was under investigation for two years by the Commissioner of Accounts and during such time the records were removed from said office and information in relation to this and similar claims could not be obtained.

That there is no record in Bellevue Hospital of any of the bills in this claim having been vouchered for payment, nor is there any record in the Department of Finance of any of said bills having been paid in whole or in part.

That this claim is illegal and invalid against the City, but, notwithstanding, is in my judgment equitable and proper for the City to pay in the sum of $497.05, if the Board by unanimous vote determines that the City has received a benefit and is justly and equitably obligated to pay such claim and that the interests of the City will be best subserved by the payment thereof.

That if payment is authorized by the Board it shall be in full satisfaction of the claim and claimant shall fully release the City upon such payment in such form as shall be approved by the Corporation Counsel.

That payment if made shall be from the fund known as "RCL-11, Claims, Miscel-laneous," special revenue bonds to be issued therefor in accordance with section 187 of the Charter; and that the liability for the redemption of such special revenue bonds be included in the annual itemized estimate of Bellevue and Allied Hospitals to be submitted to the Board of Estimate and Apportionment for inclusion in the appro-priations to be contained in the Budget of 1923. Respectfully,

CHARLES L. CRAIG, Comptroller The following resolution was offered: Resolved, That the Board of Estimate and Apportionment does, pursuant to section

246 of the Greater New York Charter, hereby determine that the City has received a benefit from F. Wagner's Son (William N. Wagner) for labor and materials furnished to Bellevue and Allied Hospitals at various times during 1916 and 1918 in the repairing of ambulances and other vehicles under emergency conditions, and for which the City is justly and equitably obligated to pay, without interest, to said William N. Wagner, sole owner of the business known by the trade name of F. Wagner's Son, the sum of four hundred ninety-seven dollars and five cents ($497.05) ; that the said sum shall be paid in full satisfaction of the claim of said William N. Wagner; that the interests of the City will be best subserved by the payment of said claim in the sum stated, viz., four hundred ninety-seven dollars and five cents ($497.05) ; and that the said sum shall be paid only upon the execution by the said William N. Wagner of a full release in favor of the City in such form as may be approved by the Corporation Counsel; and the Comptroller is hereby authorized to pay said claim in the sum of four hundred ninety

The following resolution was offered: Resolved, That the request of the County Judge and Surrogate, Richmond County,

dated January 6, 1922, for a transfer of $61.95 to 1921 Code 3712, Office Equipment, to pay for a filing case received in January, 1922, be and the same is hereby denied.

No record of his time for six days ending Decem- ber 31, 1912, and for the weeks ending December 31, 1913, and February 24, 1915, could be located ; the disallowance of this time does not affect applicant's right to full time credit on a 250-day basis.

THE . CITY RECORD. TUESDAY, APRIL 4, 1922.

An affidavit of M. B. Heyman, M. D., has been accepted as substantiation of applicant's claim for service at the Manhattan State Hospital from February 28, 1896, to March 14, 1897. The per annum rates of pay claimed by applicant are at variance with the rates paid for the following periods

Item H. Retirement of Rachel Kelly, Hospital Helper, Department of Public Welfare, was referred to the Committee of the Whole.

Board of Estimate and Apportionment-Application for Retirement (Cal. No. 54). The Secretary presented the following :


Gentlemen-O'n March 23, 1921 (Cal. No. 6-H), the Board retired Henry Rick, Sr., a Captain in the Department of Health and a member of the New York City Employees' Retirement System on a retirement allowance, effective April 1, 1921, of $1,230.35, being in part a pension of $1,217.15 and in part an annuity of $13.20.

On August 12, 1921, Captain Rick applied for increased pension due to receiving a retroactive increase of his compensation from $2,280 to $3,000, effective July 1, 1920.

Examination shows a supplementary payroll in favor of the applicant, dated May 31, 1921 (after his retirement), for $540 covering the difference between $2,280 and $3,000, as claimed, from July 1, 1920, to March 31, 1921. Such payment increases his average annual compensation of the last ten years by $54 and the Actuary reports that the pension should therefore be increased from $1,217.15 to $1,253.63 and that there is no change in the annuity as additional deductions were not made.

A resolution is submitted herewith awarding and granting a revised retirement allowance to the applicant of $1,266.83, being in part a pension increased to $1,253.63 and an annuity, as previously awarded, of $13.20, effective as of the date of the original award, namely, April 1, 1921.

Respectfully, JOSEPH HAAG, Secretary. Geo. B. BucK, Actuary.

The report was referred to the Committee of the Whole.

Department of Docks-Modification of Pierhead and Bulkhead Lines of Vernam and Somerville Basins (Barbadoes Creek), Jamaica Bay, Borough of Queens (Cal. No. 58).

(On January 13, 1922 (Cal. No. 108), the Chief Engineer was notified to attend the public hearing in this matter.)

The Secretary presented a communication, dated January 9, 1922, from Col. Edward Burr of the New York Harbor Line Board, herein, and the following report of the Chief Engineer :

March 6, 1922. Report No. 21804. Hon. JOHN F. HYLAN, Mayor, Chairman, Board of Estimate and Apportionment:

Sir-At the meeting of the Board of Estimate and Apportionment held on January 13, 1922 (Cal. No. 108), a communication was presented from Col. Edward Burr, Corps of Engineers, U. S. Army, advising that a hearing was to be given by the New York Harbor Line Board on February 7th with respect to applications for the establishment of pierhead and bulkhead lines for those portions of the former Barbadoes Creek now known as Vernam Basin and Somerville Basin, in the Borough of Queens, and the Chief Engineer was instructed to attend the hearing.

In conformity with these directions I beg to state that your Engineer was repre-sented at the hearing by Assistant Engineer Frederick W. Koop.

At the hearing it was disclosed that the application for the establishment of the lines of these basins had been made by a number of property owners, including about 50 per cent. of the owners of abutting property. Evidence was presented by them intended to show that Vernam Basin had been actually) in use as a basin for many years and that its recognition and perpetuation somewhat along its present lines was necessary. An objection, however, was presented by owners of property on the southerly side of the proposed basin to the suggested treatment of the bulkhead line on the northerly side on the ground that the position indicated for it fell outside of the bulkhead as actually built.

It was also shown that the proposed Somerville Basin was intended to approximately follow the lines of an existing waterway, and that the easterly and southerly sides com-prise marsh land and land under water. The westerly and northerly sides have been filled in and are partly occupied by the Department of Street Cleaning and a shipyard. It was alleged by the petitioners that the perpetuation of the waterway was essential to the development of the locality.

The representative of the Chief Engineer expressed the opinion that the recognition of Verham Basin as a waterway would probably not be objected to by the City as it was now in substantial use as such and because it could be recognized without any radical change in the street plan of the territory. He called attention, however, to the fact that in the case of the proposed Somerville Basin information was entirely lacking as to the practicability of adapting it to a rational street plan and in order that this might be made the subject of investigation request was made that action be deferred for at least six months or until an opportunity had been afforded to investigate this phase of the matter.

Up to the present date no decision has been rendered by the Harbor Line Board. I would recommend that a formal request be made by the Board of Estimate and

Apportionment to the New York Harbor Line Board-that action in the case of the appli-cation for- the fixing of bulkhead lines for Somerville Basin be deferred until the matter has been made the subject of formal consideration by your Board.

I would also suggest that the matter be called to the attention of the President of the Borough of Queens, with a request that as soon as possible he submit a map showing the practicability of adapting this basin to the street plan of the locality, provided that this can be accomplished in a manner advantageous to the general interests affected.

Respectfully, ARTHUR S. TUTTLE, Chief Engineer.

The matter was referred to the President of the Borough of Queens.

Department of Education-Acquisition of School Site (Cal. No. 59). (On February 3, 1922 (Cal. No. 174-A) the matter was referred to the Committee

of the Whole and to the Chief Engineer of the Board for report under Rule 34.) The Secretary presented a communication, dated January 27, 1922, from the Secre-

tary, Board of Education, herein, and the following report of the Chief Engineer: Report No. 21873. March 2, 1922.

Hon. Joan F. HYLAN, Mayor, Chairman, Board of Estimate and Apportionment: Sir-At the meeting of the Board of Estimate and Apportionment held on February

3, 1922 (Cal. No. 174-A), there was referred to the Committee of the Whole a commun-ication from the Secretary of the Board of Education bearing date of January 27th, transmitting a certified copy of a resolution adopted by the said Board on January 25, 1922, selecting as a site for school purposes the block bounded by 79th street, New Utrecht avenue, 17th avenue, 80th street and 16th avenue, in the Borough of Brooklyn, and the Chief Engineer was instructed to submit a report in accordance with rule 34 of the Board.

In selecting the block above described the report accompanying the resolution of the Board of Education directs attention to the urgent need for a new building for the

New Utrecht High School now located in an old structure on 86th street near 18th avenue which possesses inadequate capacity for present requirements and is also lacking in up-to-date educational facilities. Attention is also directed to the absence of an avail-able site in the vicinity of the present school, which is needed for elementary pupils, and accordingly the block now under consideration has been selected to be improved with a high school for students residing in the Bensonhurst, Bath Beach, Dyker Heights and Bay Ridge Sections of the Borough.

The block in question has a maximum length of about 790 feet and a depth of 200 feet. The property is valued, for the purposes of taxation, at $72,000, of which amount $200 represents the value of a small frame building.

The land adjacent to the bounding streets is approximately at the legal grade, but in the interior of the block it is about 10 feet below the elevation of the surrounding streets. Title to each of the streets upon which the proposed site has frontage has been legally acquired. A small real estate office is .located at the southwesterly corner of 79th street and New Utrecht avenue but with this exception the land is unimproved. 17th avenue, New Utrecht avenue and 79th street are paved, but in the case of the latter street the surfacing is of macadam. 16th avenue and 80th street are roughly graded. With the exception of 17th avenue, sewer facilities are available in each of the bounding streets.

The streets forming the easterly and westerly boundaries are designated for business use, but 79th street and 80th street are located in a residence district.

In the section to the west of the block now under consideration there is considerable unimproved land which might be considered available for the desired purpose but the site now selected appears to be particularly adaptable for the proposed use by reason of its proximity to transit facilities in New Utrecht avenue.

The project is consistent with the city Plan. Attention is directed, however, to the fact that the technical description of the land defining the boundary of the site is in error by reason of failure to recognize the existence of New.: Utrecht avenue as forming a portion of the easterly boundary. In case the selection of the site is favored by the Board it is suggested that before a resolution is adopted providing for its acquisition steps be taken to clearly define the boundary of the land proposed to be acquired.

Respectfully, ARTHUR S. TUTTLE, Chief Engineer.


Department of Education-Acquisition of School Site (Cal. No. 60).. (On February 3, /922 (Cal. No. 174-C), the matter was referred to the Committee

of the Whole and to the Chief Engineer of the Board for report under Rule 34.) The Secretary presented a communication, dated January 27, 1922, from the

Secretary, Board of Education, herein, and the following report of the Chief Engineer : Report No. 21870. March 2, 1922.

Hon. JOHN F. HYLAN, Mayor, Chairman, Board of Estimate and Apportionment: Sir-At the meeting of the Board of Estimate and Apportionment held on

February 3; 1922 (Cal. No. 174-C), there was referred to the Committee of the Whole a communication from the Secretary of the Board of Educatioiebearing date of January 27th, transmitting a certified copy of a resolution adopted by the said Board on January 25, 1922, selecting as a site for school purposes property on the southwesterly side of Bushwick avenue in the block between DeKalb avenue and Kosciusko street, in the Borough of Brooklyn, and the Chief Engineer was instructed to submit a report in accordance with rule 34 of the Board.

The proposed site comprises a parcel of property having a frontage of 124 feet on the southwesterly side of Bushwick avenue and a depth of 213 feet 4 inches, located 98 feet 9 inches northwestwardly from Kosciusko street. It adjoins the lands of Public School No. 68, located at the northwesterly corner of Bushwick avenue and Kosciusko street, and also adjoins on the rear the lands of Public School No. 74, which is located in the interior of the block with access into Kosciusko street.

At the meeting of the Board held on October 28, 1921 (Cal. Nb. 48), there was referred to the Committee on City Plan and Public Improvements the petition of approximately 180 property owners residing in the Bushwick section of the Borough, protesting against the erection of the Bikur Cholim Hospital upon the site now under consideration and directing attention to the desirability of acquiring the land for use as a public playground. In accordance with the recommendation of the Committee, the matter was referred to the Board of Education for investigation at the meeting of the Board held on January 6, 1922 (Cal. No. 45).

In presenting this matter the report accompanying the resolution of the Board of Education directs attention to the necessity of additional space for a playground adjoining the lands of Public Schools Nos. 68 and 74, as well as the fact that if advantage is not taken of the opportunity to acquire the land selected it appears probable that it will be improved either with a hospital building or with apartments which would be detrimental to the two adjoining school sites. The land has an assessed valuation of $30,000, and a building which formerly existed upon the site was evidently valued at $4,000.

An inspection shows that both of the school sites heretofore acquired in this block have been improved with brick buildings ranging in height from about three to three and one-half stories. With the exception of a small outbuilding the land proposed to be acquired is vacant and approximately at the street grade. There are indications that a frame house, which formerly occupied a portion of the site, has recently been razed and a sign indicates that the land is proposed to be improved by a building to be designated as the Bikur Cholim Hospital. The remaining property in the block fronting upon- Bushwick avenue is improved with a public library building.

Title to Bushwick avenue has been established to be in the City. All of the streets in this vicinity are fully improved and sewer facilities are available. DeKalb avenue is designated for business use, but Bushwick avenue and Kosciusko street are in a residence district.

The advantages to be gained by acquiring the land now under consideration, not only as an adjunct to the property already acquired for school purposes but also as a protective measure, are evident, and it is also apparent that if the land is to be taken its acquisition should not be delayed.

The project is consistent with the City plan. Respectfully, ARTHUR S. TUTTLE, Chief Engineer.

He points out that the "commission to committee" issued May 4, 1921, upon the filing and recording of such bond after Mr. Anderstm's death on April 29, 1921; that the application for membership- signed Alexander Anderson by Agnes Anderson, committee of the estate, which the Commissioner stated was forwarded April 29th, like the application by the committee of the person which preceded it, was not in fact the application of such committee, as such committee never qualified.

He further pointed out that since January 22, 1920 (which was months prior to the enactment of the retirement law) when Mr. Anderion was committed to Kings Park State Hospital as a legal incompetent, he has never been paid compensation by the City and has never contributed to the Retirement System.

As a moral obligation, he draws the attention of the Board to one of the City's agencies for assistance on the basis of needs rather than of legal claim, namely, the Board of Child Welfare, as a widow with minor children survives.

The communications were referred to the Committee of the Whole.

"In each contract for the construction of public works a provision shall be inserted, to the effect that, if the provisions of this section are not complied with, the contract shall be void. All boards, officers, agents or employees of cities of the first class of the State, having the power to enter into contracts which provide for the expenditure of public money or public works, shall file in the office of the Com-missioner of Labor the names and addresses of all contractors holding contracts with said cities of the state. Upon the letting of new contracts the names and addresses of such new contractors shall likewise be filed. Upon the demand of the Commissioner of Labor a contractor shall furnish a list of the names and addresses of all sub-contractors in his employ. Each contractor performing work for any city of the first-class shall keep a list of his employees, in which it shall be set forth whether they are naturalized or native born citizens of the United States, together with, in case of naturalization, the date of naturalization and the name of the court where such naturalization was granted.

He also stated that a hearing upon this measure was scheduled at Albany for Tuesday, March 14th, and inasmuch as the Legislature adjourns on the 17th, he urged that the members of the Board appear at the hearing to protest strongly against the enactment and to oppose the pending bill, which would be detrimental to and destruc-tive of the interests of the City.
