take care of this fund which is for the benefit of those in jured in protecting our lives and property as well as their families and those who have grown old in the service of the city I do not hesitate to recommend that the rate bo increased from cent to 1 cent This will make an increase that must be met by an appropriation of about $9000 The total amount of increases over 1910 outside of the increase in the police pension fund is approximately $113000 and all of this seems to be absolutely necessary to meet the growing needs of the city I do not see how it is possible to meet these demands and keep the tax rate as It is now and having carefully gone over the estimates submitted by the controller I can not see how anything can be cut out that has not already been done so by him I

recommended a decrease in the amount of money asked for 1 by the different departments the sum of $30943630 which decrease I approve I have tried In every way possible to keep th? lew down to the present rate but expenses muuw uu nolice force the in crease In the 4 number of electric lights which are permanent increases and which must be met and other matters which I speak of more particularly I And impossible to do so It was apparent to every one on the first dav of January 1910 when I was Inaugu rated mayor that th? police force was en tirely inadequate for a cltv of this size if the laws were to be enforced as they ought to be additional men cltv recommendation and on the April 1910 fifty additional men to the police force making a increase of salaries in the police of $58063 a vear which must the appropriation of this year OUND CITY POORLY LIGHTED When I became mayor I found the city poorly lighted After conference with the Board of Public Works and members of the City Council we concluded it was absolutely necessary that the city have mnre lights After many weeks of Inspection and con sultation a number of new lights have been added this year and more are to be added next year It was necessary to pay for those added this year by a special appropriation of the Council and you have appropriated $15000 for that purpose All of these arc improvements which the public demands and they must necessarily be provided for by appropriations for the coming year It will require about $20000 additional to pax fur the lights which the Board of Public Works expects to have installed before the first of the coming year and in all the in crease in public lighting which must be met by an appropriation amounts to about $35ooo over the appropriation of last year It has been
