Definite estimates of the amount of payroll to be met today tomorrow are lacking but with many firms unable to meet their the Hudson River. Congress la Willing Congress has expressed a willingness to take over the canal, provided the federal government be not obligated in any way to deepen or improve the waterway. The federal government also has expressly disapproved any plan to make the 7v I -ft and Assemblymen and to members cf the City Council.

"It is high tine." said Mr. Woodward, "that this obligation be lifted from the backs of the already overburdened Rochester taxpayers. The Board of Education made this clear In its letter of Feb. 4, 1933, addressed to Mayor Owen, when It pointed out that the city had already spent over $700,000 in this free education in return for taking over a school building valued at $70 000. "This is not an issue between the eity of Rochester and the town of Greece.

The free tuition so far granted by the city has not meant lower taxes for the town of Greece Only a relatively small number of people have benefitted by the situation through not having to pay any school taxes and most of these concentrates on the larger givers.

The. scrip is secured by highest quality the state should be relieved ot operation costs In view of the pressing need of state economy. In a statement issued in connection with his bill, he said today: "The state is up against a financial crisis. The Governor and the Legislature have been struggling to balance the budget. We hav! been making cuts here and there some large and some small but we continue to maintain all Uie present functions of government.

A limited reduction only in th5 cost of government can be by economies within the departments, but any reduction to be in any respect commensurate with Clearing House Statement people moved into the districts since the situation came into existence. In fact, most of the property owners in Greece have to pay school taxes and they can't understand why the man living across the street in one of those districts sh'juld have escaped school taxes all these years and why he should continue to do so. "The argument is advanced that Rochester acquired much taxable property through the annexation, and hereforp an afford to continue to furnish fre-? education to children in the unannexed portions of the free school districts. The basic fallacy in this assertion Is that the arrangement to provide free schooling for such children had nothing to da with the taxable values acquired by the city.

the banks on Friday. The officials of the Clearing House, with the splendid co-operation of the Todd Company, have completed a tremendous taak this week In preparing for issuance of scrip, having over one million pieces of scrip printed, checked and delivered to the banks ready to make up in payrolls tomorrow. No layman can appreciate the immense amount of physical labor involved in preparing for the issuance of "new money" within five days' time. Business men and industrial leaders highly commend the accomplishment of the Rochester Clearing House for its persistence in the face of constantly conflicting reports from Washington with reference to the power of the local communities to use scrip. It has proceeded swiftly and effectively In providing for scrip which could be issued If and when authority was given.

The scrip, backed by approximately 125 per cent of collateral, should' find ready circulation In the community and be accepted as readily as any form of currency. When the present emergency is past the scrip outstanding may be redeemed at full face value by any Rochester bank in regular United States currency received. MM. C. Mrs.
