"On the whole the result have been happy tor the mass, but It has confused standards. We are coming to fear ttiat we cannot afford this luxury for everyone." Sounding the same note, Dr. L.

Several revisions from the original recommendations of Mr. Pilcher were made by the Salary Committee, as Indicated In the report submitted to the supervisors, and on motion of Mr. Rogers, referred back to that committee. Mr. Jones' job as chief adult probation ofTicer waa among those left untouched in Mr.

Pilcher's report, but the Salary Committee recommended It be cut from $4,000 to $3,600. Daniel J.

He said he is maklnsr a dtudy of the setup of the office. He remarked, however, that Mr.

Pilotier left the district-attorney's office unchanged in his report and that changes, Including revision downward of salaries of four jobs, were the recommendation of the Salury Committee.

Kelly. "The State through TERA and the federal government through B'ERA are promoting work relief," said Commissioner Kelly, "and whether an individual community can abandon it or go contrary to their wishes la a doubtful question. They are paying 75 per cent of the costs and If their policy Is to encourage work relief and to ask that a portion of the case load h'. employed at work relief they might look askance at you if you cut it out." The suggestion to drop the work relief program was the highlight of six recommendations the Chamber presented City Council at th 1935 budget hearing Thursday night. City Hall generally term.) them "expected." Defend ('out "No doubt," continued Commissioner Kelly, "work relief Is expensive but a good many things have been accomplished.

Look at the Municipal Hospital as one rase. Before TERA entered there Blaster was falling from the walls and the kitchen was in bad condition. Examine it today to see what can lie accomplished through that program. The Chamber sees only one side of the picture, the expense side, and It does not see the other, the work done." "Do you consider work relief worth while?" he was asked. "Yes, as long as the projects are not too expensive to operate; that is.

as long as the material costs are not too high or the projects do not require expensive supervision. Simple ones, such as sewers, are Ideal. The problem now is to find such projects since the list has been well depleted." Concerning the recomn.endation that improved supervision In welfare cases be shown and all possible economies in expenditures be effected. Commissioner Kelly said those points were being checked dally. Mayor Stanton remarked that "substantial progress had been made to control welfare costs." Cites Improvements "We constantly are trying to lm- prove on supervision," lid Com missioner Kelly.

"We have installed control methods. A payroll check will be started next week with the Industrial Management Council. Next we will turn to the Retail Riire-tu and finally will ask co-operation of the independent employers not affiliated with either of these agencies." Despite the Chamber recommendation that employes be a-sked to continue contributing 10 per cent of their salaries next year, there was little indication that the re-1 quest would be granted. The pro posed budget calls for an 8 per cent contribution. As far as the suggestion that the budget be rewritten to show all locally administered expenditures and all receipts In full, officials said that would call for drastic revision of the bookkeeping system and would net no further Information on the budget.

As far as welfare costs are concerned, the city lists the amount expected to be spent the following year In the budget and Includes in anticipated revenues the etimated state refund. Consolidating those figures would not improve the document, it was held. Mayor Stanton declared that suggestions from the floor at the meeting for added help for libraries, the museum and band concerts would be given "sympathetic consideration," He declined to discuss possible amounts but it was rTZ lZ mi-iTflnrii in uip neighborhood of $40,000.

H. Dalzell, executive -tecr'tary, com meuted last night. Organized in Rochester to promote ratification of the St. Lawrence River navigation snd povcr project, the association feels thai additional senatorial Democratic followers of President Koosevcit, who strongly advocate the project, may spell ratification. President Roosevelt has indicated that he plans to resubaiit-hc treaty, defeated last Mar.

14, to the next Congress. Mr. Dalzell pointed out that party lines split when the treaty was voted down because many senators took ihe opposition of Senators Copeland anu Wagner to mean that New York State Itself did not favor project. For that reasons, he" declared, the pressing need of the association is to show the Senate through the power of public opinion, that New York State does want ratification of the treaty between United States and Canada. "We must offset the opposition of Senators Copeland and Wagner by making the will of the people felt In the Senate chamber next January," Mr Dalzell said.

He added that the association, fighting for ratificaction of the treaty on grounds that completion of the project will lower power and commodity rates for New York State, is now In a position to furnish literature at Its offices. 404-405 Terminal Building.

in commenting adversely on the Pilcher recommendations, county employes, many of whom are Re-upblican appointees, pointed to the suggested raising of Deputy-County Welfare Commissioner William J. Carey's salary from $3,600 to $4 200. Carey is a Democrat. Most of the salary revisions recommended were downward, however, and the atmosphere where city and county emylyyes gathered in groups to discuss the recommendations was charged with gloom and foreboding. This was especially true In the cases of employes in the lower salary brackets.

One charwoman, whose salary along with a score of others was suggested to be cut from $1,200 to $900, asked anxiously. "They won't do that to us, will they? They know we can't get along on that And we work hard for our money." Elevator operators, whose present salaries are lis'ed at $1,75 to but who actually receive only about $1500 after deductions are made for five days a month which they are required to take off and after the voluntary one-month contribution to the county, were down at the mouth at the prospect of having their salaries listed at $1,140. "1 won't work for a boy's wage," one said. Affect of Pensions Salary cus affecting pensions of employes, based on age and length of work an injustice, was the complaint in sotne quarters. The State retirement fund, to which all employes contribute, does not take into account voluntary refunds by the county employes, which for the last two years have been set at 8 1-3 per cent and for 1935 are to be reduced to 1-3 lieu of euta for that reason.

Operating Expense Total Reached S3.420.715 in '33-'34 School Year Rated as fifth richest educational Institution In the United States, the University of Rochester yesterday released a statement showing total assets as of June 30, 1931, were $83,544.051 89. Raymond L. Thompson, treasurer, who released the report, said there "is no foundation to the belief the university Is fifth in assets." He said there was no way of publicly determining, so far as he knew, what are the relative assets cf any college or university, for the reason that such institutions arv not In the habit of comparing their respective wealth. Included Ir the V. of R.
