Wilcox, Deputy Commissioner of Water Supply, Gft and Electricity. Sir. Wilcox told a large gathering of the taxpayers ii: the Commerce Club, "50 Manhattan avenue, that he is at work upon some scheme looking toward the equalization of water taxes so that they will fall with the same weight on all users.

Mr. Wilcox explained that apartment houses and other large buildings which pay the regular frontage and fixture rates at present were found to consume very much more water than they pay for, and as a consequence probably more than $3,000,000 in revenue from this source is lost to the city. In addition, he said, at present no return from the tax funds is made to the Departmentof Water Supply for the cost of water for Are prevention, public buildings and institutions, and exempt private institutions, the whole of which totals clone to Ho made an earnest plea for the fair consideration by the taxpayers of the plans for extending the meter system to all users, so that the entire water supply system might be made self-supporting. The importance of the Crosstown subway route was also briefly commented upon by Commissioner Wilcox, who declared he was probably the first man to draw the route on the maps of the dual system. He explained how the crosstown links is vitally necessary to Brooklyn.

The taxpayers were informed by their secretary, Edmund Kuhnle, that the police commissioner had ordered the placing of guide posts for the protection of children at Calyer and Lor-inier street, and at Noble and Lori-mer streets. Several of the members of the association spoke against the fire menace in Clay street, where a barrel concern piles the inflammable oil-soaked barrels ro high that a fire would menace neighboring buildings and also Public School No. 31. on Du-jiont street. It was declared that some of the property owners adjacent to the barrel yard had their insurance policies cancelled because of the proximity to yard.

The association will investigate the matter and report at the next meeting. ITS GOLDEN JUBILEE IiKCTCRES ON IJBKHAIJSM. Horace J.

Captain Formosa delivered a brief address at the dinner in which he stated that he felt confident that the body of men in the league under his command would be ready at a moment's notice to fulfill any and all obligations which might arise, particularly at this time when the police are held In reserve for emergency purposes. The Flatbush league has been conducted along strict lines, but the.

side of the league has been prominent since its beginning. The members have organized a first-class baseball team and have played several interesting games.

Every pair, pumps, oxfords and highs, is standard Regal quality. Several of the Regal Stores in other cities found they had more shoes of certain sizes than their customers could use, so these have been shipped here to be sold out quickly at prices away below usual. Right now "shoe sales" are everywhere, but real leather shoes of known value are hard to find at sale prices.

Especially for the slender foot this sale presents an opportunity. You have wonderful choice of styles, but only a few of some sizes. You can get a pair of high shoes to finish out the Winter and a pair of low shoes for Spring at $2.95 a pair. This unusual Regal sale will last one week -two weeks if necessary but we advise you to come early while there is still a good choice. following In Union Fields Cemetery.

Editor Brooklyn Daily Eagle: Both your news article of Sunday nnd your editorial of yesterday ere based upon a misapprehension of what said at the Civic Club on Saturday. No doubt this was my own fault for not preparing the matter In advance, since I speak very rapidly and a stenographer has hard work to keep up.

I stated, however, that I disagreed with Mr. Driscoll's theory that a definite term of offlce is a remedy for the evils which have in the past been discovered in the system of police administration. My own opinion Is that a Police Commissioner cannot be successful without the co-operation of other city departments and the backing of the Mayor. When the men se3 that, after a dance hall, poolroom or other place has been closed because of disorder raused by vicious people who frequent it, no amount of influence can get the license back until that condition is eradicated, they understand better than any amount of talking to them can make thorn understand that the tidmlnlstration 1b on the level with them, will not allow politics to enter into the work of the department, and that tho administration not only of the rectors of the Maron Wood Products and Toy Company, of Spring Vallev. formed with a capital ot Saturday morning, with a requiem mass In SIS.
