Resignation of His Honor Mayor James Rolph, Jr.
Thereupon, the following was read by His Honor Mayor Rolph:

Mayor's Office.

San Francisco, Cal., January 3, 1931.

To the Honorable the Board of Supervisors of the City and County of
San Francisco.

Gentlemen: I hereby submit my resignation as Mayor of the City
and County of San Francisco, to take effect simultaneously with my
inauguration as Governor of California, on January 6, 1931.

It was with deepest emotion that I penned these lines marking my
retirement from the office of Mayor of this City, by which I have been
so often and so signally honored, since to me this resignation repre-
sents a wrenching of old ties, and a relinquishment of duties with

28 SATURDAY, JANUARY 3, 1931.

which I have grown so familiar that they have become a part of my
daily life.

For twenty years it has been my pleasure and pride to preside as
Mayor of San Francisco.

During the last two decades our City has been singularly free from
industrial quarrels, faction fighting, and political scandal, and I am
supremely happy to say that, in the period of my mayoralty, a spirit
of good will has dominated San Francisco, under which it has grown
in wealth, grandeur, population and iiopularity, and has become a
place of clean repute, holding high its head among the cities of the
nation. There is no city of America better known or loved than San
Francisco. Here people like to come, here they enjoy our life and
hospitality.

Public life, I am pleased to testify, has left fewer scars on me than
it does on most men who have held responsible office continuously for
twenty years. Of course, I have had disappointments in men. No
doubt I, too, at times, have been disappointing to men who thought
I should have done otherwise than I did in this matter or that. But
I al'ow to others the same charitable judgment that I ask for myself;
I give to others the same credit that I think should be given to me,
for an honest, sincere effort to do my duty in all the circumstances of
the situation. The delusion of perfection was never one of my foibles.
I neither expect perfection from others nor claim it for myself.
Looking backward, after the event, we can all see wherein we have
made mistakes. Hindsight gives a clearer vision than foresight. But
all life, all activity in the visible universe, seems to move by a process
of trial and error. Show me the man in public life who has never
made a mistake, and I will show you one who has never done any-
thing constructive and has never made a worthwhile success.

We who have been born in San Francisco, or who have grown up
with this glorious city, feel a peculiar affection for it, an affection,
it seems to me, stronger and more characteristic than that felt by
most Americans elsewhere for their home city. That affection has
always stirred me deeply. To serve San Francisco as its Mayor has
been for me a labor of love and pride. The reflection that my fellow-
citizens trusted me and relied on me has brought me courage and
solace through many, many years of strife and strain. As my dream
of a rebuilt and improved San Francisco gradually came true; as I
saw arise these monumental i)ublic buildings that make San Fran-
cisco one of the show places of the earth; as I saw our marvelous
system of boulevards expand: as I noted a gradual improvement in
the quality of our public service, a sustained quickening of the spirit
of service in all departments; as the years went by and the members
of my administration demonstrated by constant trial their efficiency
and probity, and as my fellow-citizens manifested their confidence and
approval by reelecting me, time after time, I felt grateful that it had
been given to me to have all this happen during my five successive
terms as Mayor of this, the city loved around the world.

As our city grew into metropolitan magnitude, I strove to keep
always in touch with the individual citizen, the small group; to
escape that aloofness from the plain people which seems to be inev-
ita1)le when a city grows very large, and in that effort I think I have
been successful.

Although retiring as Mayor, it has been vouchsafed to me to enter
a field of greater endeavor, for I leave this office to become Governor
of my native State, a position carrying heavy responsibility and offer-
ing great opportunity for public service. It is not within my province
at this time to detail any definition of my precise policies in that
exalted office. These are to be set fortli in another place, and at

of heart and soul and mind to the service of my fellow-citizens, and

political experience to meet exigencies and solve problems as they
arise. I think, also, that I know what kind of povernmoiit the people
of Calif(»rnia want. They want efficiency and economy, but they also
want their State government to be permeated by a humane spirit.
They do not want a soulless, bloodless sort of government by card
indexes and statistics, for government deals with human beings, their
lives, liberties and fortunes, and a good government is a government
by men and women who are, first of all, human beings.

So, to my friends and neighbors of my native and beloved city, i
seize this occasion to say farewell as their Mayor. Many of our younu
voters cannot remember a time when I was not Mayor of San Fran-
cisco. I will miss my office under my favorite dome. I will miss the
cheerful greetings that every man, woman and child in this great
city felt free to give me; I will miss my work and my troubles; I will
even miss the criticisms and complaints of some of my friendly but
always frank critics in the Board of Supervisors. But I will not desert
San Francisco entirely. The Governor has an office in the State Build-
ing over the way, and. while my duties will hold me much in Sacra
mento. you will often find me over there, with one eye on the dome of
the City Hall, to be sure that it is still there and that its proud head
has not been lowered by a single inch.

To Angelo J. Possi. my friend and successor in the mayoralty, go
my heartiest congratulations and best wishes. He brings to this office
a wide experience in public affairs, a keen knowledge of the city's prob-
lems, and a fine ambition to be of service to San Francisco, a city
which stands on the threshold of a great destiny. His help has ever
been freely given to me, and I bespeak for him your sincere and
hearty cooperation in the solution of the important problems with
which he must cope.

To the various city officials who have so faithfully performed the
duties of their offices and upheld the fair fame of our city goes my
sincere appreciation.

To the commissions and the heads of departments who constituted
my official family I say farewell with a full heart. Xo head of a city
ever had more loyal, loving and devoted service and allegiance. With-
out their wholehearted support I could have accomplished little. Never
have they failed me. and no greater good fortune could befall me than
to have equal loyalty and allegience from those who will serve under
me as Governor.

And to you, gentlemen of the Board, I extend my sincere thanks.
We have, at times, had honest differences of opinion, but all of us
have labored for a common end. the advancement of San Francisco,
and I leave this chair feeling that all of you wish me well. Think of
me always as one who has no malice in his heart toward any man.
and one who will always be glad to cooperate with you in any endeavor
that makes for a greater and better San Francisco.

I leave San Francisco proud in the consciousness that my old friends
who were with me twenty years ago when I entered the City Hall are
yet my friends and still standing by; and hopeful that the many new
friends who have joined with me throughout the State of California
will be as constant and as well pleased with me in the end as my old
San Francisco friends have proved themselves to be.

Of more importance to me than fortune or public office is the fact
that after I have been Mayor for twenty consecutive years of the
people of San Francisco they feel towards me a personal affection that
has grown stronger and sweeter with the years. That affectionate
regard I appreciate beyond the power of words to express.

I go to the governorship the same plain, simple, human .Jim Rolph
that I have always tried to be. in fair weather or foul, and may God
grant that I win and retain the affection, the confidence and the good
will of my fellow-Californians in the same full measure as it has been
given to me to hold that of my fellow-citizens of San Francisco.

30 SATURDAY, JANUARY 3, 1931.

And so, with a heart overflowing with gratitude, and yet deeply
touched by this parting, I bid hail and farewell to the people of my
beloved San Francisco.

Respectfully and sincarely,

/^AMES ROLPH, Jr.,

\ Mayor of San Francisco.

Addresses.

Supervisor Toner acted as master of ceremonies following the ad-
dress of Governor-elect Rolph, which was broadcast over a coast-wide
radio hookup, and announced the following speakers, who addressed
the Board, City officials and municipal employees and a crowd that
filled the chamber and overflowed into the corridors.

Supervisor Hayden, as Dean of the Board of Supervisors, in ex-
pressing his felicitations upon the elevation of Mayor Rolph to the
high office of Governor of the State of California, took occasion to
present the Governor-elect with an engrossed copy of the following
resolution, presented by Supervisor Roncovieri at a previous meeting,
making Governor-elect Rolph "Mayor Emeritus" of San Francisco for
life, to-wit:

Resolution No. 33687 (New Series), as follows:

cisco be, and it is hereby created by this Board of Supervisors for

Absent — Supervisors Gallagher, Havenner, McGovern, Peyser, Power,

Supervisor Hayden gave full credit to Supervisor Roncovieri for the

resolution, and thanked his permitting him to make the presentation.

He also presented a replica of the resolution on a solid gold plate

SATURDAY, JANUARY 3. 1931. 81

and declared that the Governor-elect would hereafter be a member of
all committees on ofTlclal ceremonial functions.

Supervisor Andriano spoke for the members of the Board in pre-
senting the Govornor-elect a gold and silver replica of the City Hall
dome, supported by the famous Rolph boots. The replica, he said, is
not yet finished, and a design of it was presented instead.

Thereupon, each of the members present was called upon by Super-
visor Toner, master of ceremonies, and added their eulogies and good
wishes to the Governor-elect.

Former Mayor P. H. McCarthy added hig felicitations and congratu-
lations:

John McLaren, veteran superintendent of Golden Gate Park, praised
and congratulated the retiring Mayor.

Judge Walter Perry Johnson spoke for the Superior Court. Pen-
ning Wentworth, City Auditor; Harry I. Mulcrevy, County Clerk;
Lewis F. Byington, past grand president of the Native Sons of the
Golden West and chairman of the Board of Freeholders, were speakers.

"I have knowTi Jim Rolph since boyhood," asserted Matt I. Sulli-
van, former Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. "We grew up to-
gether in the Mission.

"I do not know of a single act of his in private or in public of
which his family or the people of San F'rancisco should be ashamed,"
said the veteran jurist with much feeling.

He paid a high tribute to the character and integrity of the retiring
Mayor.

Then followed brief talks by Chief of Police William J. Qninn, Fire
Chief Charles H. Brennan. Frank J. Klimm, Dr. William C. Hassler,
T. A. Reardon, P. W. Meherin, Ira W. Coburn, William F. Benedict,
representing the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce; Alice Rose
Power, former Judge J. M. Troutt.- Joseph A. Moore, Municinal Judge
Frank T. Deasy, Ralph Wiley, former Chief of Police Daniel J. O'Brien,
Judge William H. Langdon, associate justice of the Supreme Court,
and Thomas E. Hayden.

Mayor-elect Rossi said the Board accepted the resignation with re-
luctance and regret. He described Rolph as the "Good-will Governor
of California." He predicted that under Rolph's administration the
State would go forward as a united California.

Austin Sperry, Charles Bulotti and Uda Waldrop provided the mu-
sical features of the program.

Color guards from the Police and Fire Departments added to the
impressiveness of the affair, which came to a sentimental end with
the playing of "Auld Lang Syne" by Phil Sapiro's orchestra.

Inauguration of His Honor Angelo Rossi.

Supervisor Hayden: I move your Honor that next Thursday, Janu-
ary 8, 1931, at 2 p. m., be designated as the inaugural day for the
purpose of inducting your successor, Angelo J. Rossi, into office, and
that you honor your successor by appointing a committee of five to
make the necessary arrangements for the ceremony.

San Francisco, January 5, 1931.
Hon. Angelo J. Rossi, City Hall, San Francisco.

Dear Supervisor Rossi: I am in receipt of your resignation as Super-

In accepting it I want to offer to you my sincere congratulations upon

I also extend to you my hearty congratulations upon your election

Angelo J. Rossi Appointed Mayor of the City and County of San

of the City and County of San Francisco, vice James Rolph, Jr., re-
signed, to hold said office for the remainder of the term for which James
Rolph, Jr., was elected, and until a successor to said office is elected
and qualified.

Ayes — Supervisors Andriano, Canepa, Colman, Gallagher, Hayden,

Motion.

Supervisor Hayden suggested that during pending proceedings Super-
visor Andriano be elected to preside.
So ordered.

Opinion of City Attorney.

On motion of Supervisor Hayden, Dion Holm, representing the City
Attorney, was granted the privilege of the floor. He said:

Mr. Chairman, Members of the Board of Supervisors: Heretofore the
opinion of the City Attorney, Mr. O'Toole, was asked as to the proper
procedure in appointing a successor to Mayor, now Governor, James
Rolph, Jr., and he advised you of the methods which you have pursued.
There is no doubt in my mind that the advice given you at that time
was correct, and I believe that the appointment of Mayor Rossi under
the proceedings had heretofore is thoroughly legal. Your Charter pro-
vides that you may select whom you will, irrespective of whether it is
a member of this Board of Supervisors or from whatever walk of life
they may come. The Charter is wholly silent on it.

This matter is brought up before your Board at this time out of an
abundance of caution. The attention of our office was again brought
to the fact of there being certain Eastern decisions questioning the
ability of a Board such as this to appoint a member of the Board to
the position of Mayor. We examined those decisions thoroughly, as
Mr. O'Toole did at the time he first gave his opinion. A representative
of one of our local papers called at our office and informed me that
word had reached him from Sacramento that people there interested
in these proceedings were in doubt as to the legality of the previous
action of this Board in this connection. I reiterate that I believe the
first appointment made was thoroughly legal and those proceedings
correct, and Mayor Rossi, after you have passed this resolution, will
be, if such a thing is possible, twice honored of the City and County
of San Francisco. The Charter gives you absolute power to select
whom you believe proper, and merely out of an abundance of caution,
and because of the fact that we desire to keep our journal in proper
order when forwarding bonds to our New York bond agent, so that
our bonds may be marketable on the New York Exchange, and like-
wise that there may be no question arise over execution of deeds, leases,
and so forth, as I say, that there may be no question, I recommend to
you that this additional proceeding be carried out.

Supervisor Andriano asked if the bond had been duly performed.

DION HOLM: The bond which I now hold in my possession, for
$25,000, has been approved as to form by the City Attorney's office and
awaits only the approval of the Auditor, to whom it will be delivered
here.

SUPERVISOR HAYDEN: I take great pleasure in introducing the
Auditor of the City and County of San Francisco, Mr. Wentworth.

Thereupon, the bond in question was delivered by Mr. Holm to the
City Auditor.

Clerk to Issue Certificate of Election.

Whereupon, the following was presented by Supervisor Hayden and
adopted:

Resolution No. 33717 (New Series), as follows:

Whereas, on the 6th day of January, 1931, James Rolph, Jr., did

THURSDAY. JANUARY S. 1931. 35

resign the office of Mayor of the City and County of San Francisco; and
Whereas, on tlie Sth day of .laniiary. VX',1, tho Hoard of Supervisors
of the said City and County did elect Angelo J. Rossi Mayor of said
City and County, to till the vacancy in the office of Mayor; now, there-
fore, be it

Resolved, That the Clerk of said Board is directed to issue to the
said Angelo J. Rossi a certificate of his election, showing his authority
as such Mayor.

Ayes — Supervisors Andriano. Canepa, Colman. Gallagher, Hayden,
McGovern. Milcfs. Peyser, Power, Roncovieri, Shannon, Spaulding.
Stanton. Suhr— 14.

Absent — Supervisors Havenner, McSheehy, Toner — .3.

Whereupon. Angelo J. Rossi was duly sworn, by County Clerk Harry
I. Mulcrevy, and took the oath of office as Mayor of the City and
County of San Francisco.

Certificate of Election of Mayor Angelo J. Rossi.

Thereupon, the Clerk handed the following certificate to his Honor,
the Mayor:

I, J. S. Dunnigan, Clerk of the Board of Supervisors in and for the
City and County of San Francisco, State of California, do hereby cer-
tify that on the Sth day of January, 1931, in said City and County, at
a session of the Board of Supervisors of said City and County duly
and legally held, Angelo J. Rossi was elected Mayor of the City and
County of San Francisco, vice James Rolph. Jr., resigned, for the
unexpired term of the said James Rolph, Jr., and until a successor to
said office is elected and qualified.

In witness whereof, I, J. S. Dunnigan, Clerk of the Board of Super-
visors of the City and County of San Francisco, hereby affix my name
and the seal of the City and County of San Francisco. State of Cali-
fornia, on this Sth day of January, 1931.

(Seal) V J. S. DUXXIGAN,

Clerk of the Board of Supervisors.

INAUGURAL MESSAGE OF HIS HONOR ANGELO J. ROSSI.

His Honor Mayor Rossi then read the following address:

To My Colleagues, the Honorable Board of Supervisors, and My Fel-
low Citizens: It is in the spirit of deepest gratitude that I acknowl-
edge the great honor that you have done me in selecting me as the
Mayor of the City and County of San Francisco to take the place of
Honorable James Rolph, Jr., who surrendered his office when called
by the people to assume the high office of Governor of the State of
California. You are the representatives of the people of the City and
County of San Francisco, and our organic law lodges in you the power
to fill a vacancy in the office of Mayor whenever that vacancy should
occur. When you speak upon the subject, you speak for all of the
people of the City. Your voice is their voice, and my hope is that
when I shall cease to be Mayor of San Francisco my every action will
have been such that all the people will give expression to the senti-
ment that you have acted wisely and well and for the best interests
of San Francisco.

No one on assuming this high and lofty position can help but feel a
great personal pride upon the honor which he has attained. This is
particularly true if this honor comes to one who has given many
years of service as a public official to the City which he loves, for then
it is not only an honor, but it is a mark of appreciation of the work
performed in the past. So I say to you, my former colleagues, that
from the very bottom of my heart I do appreciate the great honor you
have done me, and hope and trust that all my actions shall be such
that none of you will ever regret the action which you have taken.

36 THURSDAY, JANUARY 8, 1931.

If my administration is to be a success, if I am to carry out the
hopes and ambitions that today fill my heart for the good of San
Francisco, if 1 am to measure up to the fully responsibility of the
position, and if I am to fulfill the hope and faith which you have
placed in me, I must not only have the active cooperation of eacli and
every one of you, but also the active cooperation of all other officials
and employees of the City and County, and I hope that every action
of mine will be such that I may continue to merit and receive your
support, as well as that of my fellow officials and employees of the City.

It must be obvious that any task is not free from difficulty. My
immediate predecessor set a record which will require constant ef-
fort on my part to equal, but I assure you that I will endeavor to
continue to carry out all constructive policies formulated by him and
bend every effort for the continued upbuilding and progress of San
Francisco, and that at all times during my incumbency in office I will
be the Mayor of all the people.

On this occasion of my initial message to your Board I feel that
there are certain matters which I should advert to specifically.

(a) Our Hetch Hetchy Water Project. No time should be lost in
the completion of the Hetch Hetchy water project. Our Engineering
Department should exert every effort to see that this work progresses
with both haste and economy, to the end that the supply of mountain
water which is so essential to our increasing population and our in-
dustrial and commercial development may be forthcoming to our peo-
ple. Millions have been expended in the construction of this project,
and aside from the great necessity of the water itself we should at
the earliest possible moment begin to derive the resultant revenue
from this water, to the end that the tax burdens borne by the people
in the payment of interest and redemption charges on our Hetch
Hetchy bonds may be lightened. As chief executive it will be my duty
to see that those charged with the construction work on this impor-
tant project permit of no delay, and I ask the earnest cooperation of
this Board in my efforts in this regard and that you provide as needed
the requisite funds that this work may be promptly and economically
completed.

(b) Privately Owned Street Railways. Although the principal fran-
chises under which the Market Street Railway Company and the Cali-
fornia Street Cable Company were operating their car lines in the
City and County of San Francisco had expired, the people of the City
by direct vote saw fit to adopt an amendment to tlie Charter which
provides for a twenty-five year extension of these franchises. Not-
withstanding the extension of these franchises, I believe that it will
be for the interest of all the people of San Francisco that the street
car systems in the City and County of San Francisco be unified and
that no time should be lost in endeavoring to agree with the holders
of the extended franchises upon a price at which their properties may
be obtained, which price must be fair and equitable to the City, and
that the City should as quickly as practical acquire these properties.
It is my judgment that pending the acquisition of these properties an
earnest attempt should be made to negotiate some equitable agree-
ment between the municipally owned lines and those privately owned,
to the end that without loss to the City the public shall continue to
obtain the most efficient and adequate as well as convenient sti'eet car
service. Such an agreement, in which the interests of the City should
be carefully consented and safeguarded, would result in a unified sys-
tem of transportation that would not alone be of the greatest benefit
to our people, but would render the outlying districts available to
rapid access and at the same time subserve the convenience of the
passengers for a fare of 5 cents.

It will be my purpose to make inquiry into the street railway situa-

THrUSDAV. JANUARY S, l!t:U. 37

tion without delay and at a later date report further to your Boar«l
upon the subject.

For the efficient and economical operation of the Municipal liailway
I strongly recommend the adoption of an operatiuK ordinance com-
parable to that under which our Water Department is now success
fully operated, conipelliuj; the submission to this Board annually of a
complete and detailed budget covering all proposed expenditures for
the next ensuing year. In my opinion such an ordinance is necessary
to keep our Municipal Railway free from politics.

With respect to both our Municipal Railway as well as our Water
Department, I believe it proper to state that, while I am in no man-
ner criticizing either department, it will be my purpose and policy
to insist that the manager of each of these utilities is not interfered
with in the proper and circumspect conduct of his department, it be-
ing my belief that he should be held absolutely responsible for its
operation. The creation of additional positions in either of these de-
partments should be carefully scrutinized for the purpose of ascertain-
ing their necessity, to the end that both of these units of our munici-
pal government shall be economically but at the same time efficiently
administered.

I believe that in both of these departments there should be given
to the employees the same latitude for advancements that would exist
if they were privately owned, and that such employees shall be ac-
corded the privilege of advancing themselves in accordance with their
ability and the opportunities available to them. Furthermore, that
when vacancies occur in positions in either of these departments, they
should be filled by appointments made from those lower in rank rather
than by persons unconnected with the service.

(c) Unemployment. Thus far San Francisco has done its full part
relative to the relief of the unemployed within our midst. There is.
however, a limit to which we may go in the appropriation of current
moneys for this purpose. To overcome this obstacle your Board has
submitted to the people the matter of the incurring of a bonded in-
debtedness of two and one-half million dollars for the puri)ose of pro-
viding work for the unemployed on needed public improvements. If
we are to continue the work of caring for the unemployed, the people
must approve this bond issue. It will be my purpose to advocate the
approval of the bonds with the assurance to the people that if the
bonds are voted the City will obtain full value for all money expended
and at the same time relieve the unemployment situation in our City.
If these bonds are approved by the people, none will be sold until it
becomes necessary to provide funds for the contemplated public im-
provements for which the bonds are issued. I recommend the hearty
cooperation of our municipal authorities with our State and national
governments in the commencement and prosecution of public improve-
ments in San Francisco for the purpose of giving employment to the
many thousands of deserving people who are now without available
work.

(d) Consolidation of San Francisco and San Mateo County. For
the past several years gi-oups of citizens from both San Francisco and
San Mateo County have been cooperating for the purpose of bringing
about a consolidation of San Francisco and the County of San Mateo.
I believe that the growth of San Francisco imperatively demands this
consolidation and that it will be for the mutual benefit of both com-
munities that it takes place. As chief executive of the City it is my
intention to cooperate officially in every possible way to effectuate
this consolidation in such a manner that the mutual interests of both
communities will be advanced and protected.

(e) War Memorial and Xeic Federal Building. It is a matter of
great gratification to me to be advised that the War .Memorial Trus-
tees are about to award a contract for the foundations of the War Me-

38 THURSDAY, JANUARY 8, 1931.

morial buildings. I trust that there will be no delay in the comple-
tion of this great project, in order that it may complete the beautifica-
tion of our Civic Center, stand as a memorial to the veterans of our
City, and fill a much-needed want in furnishing headquarters for our
veteran organizations as well as providing a suitable opera house in
San Francisco. The War Memorial Trustees are to be congratulated
on the progress that they have made in this splendid project, and
under their guidance I am certain it will be completed as rapidly as
possible. Every effort should be made to cooperate with the Federal
government relative to the site of the new Federal office building in
the Civic Center, so that the construction of this building may be com-
menced at once and the employment incident to its construction be.
made immediately available to our people.

(f) Commercial Development. The development of San Francisco's
industries depends upon the disposition of capital and those who con-
trol it to locate here. It has recently come to my attention that a
number of large Eastern concerns of nation-wide prominence have
made surveys in San Francisco for the purpose of determining the
various factors which they regard elemental and essential to the policy
of their business. It has been reported to me that some consider that
conditions here are not as attractive as they might be and therefore
have located in other sections of the State.

This is a matter of paramount importance to the City administra-
tion and it will be my effort to invite your cooperation as well as the
cooperation of local civic organizations to induce responsible concerns
to locate here and invest their capital, thereby adding to the wealth
and industrial importance of the City and giving employment to a
large number of people. This matter requires thoughtful considera-
tion, and I commend it to you and such committees as may be em-
powered to deal with it for early action.

(g) Our Schools. San Francisco is noted for the excellence of its
school system and the completeness of its public school buildings. We
should continue the construction of new school buildings as they are
needed for the housing of our school children, but the Board of Edu-
cation in carrying out its program should be mindful of the other
burdens which the taxpayer is bearing and carry out our school pro-
gram with economy where this can be done without the elimination
of efficiency. We are proud of the personnel of our principals, teach-
ers and other employees in the School Department. They are ren-
dering excellent service to San Francisco and to the State of Cali-
fornia, but I believe that in the employment and retention of princi-
pals and teachers special attention should be given to residence in
San Francisco and, qualifications being equal, the emplojTuent of resi-
dents should be preferred to those who come to us from other places.

(h) Our Harbor. The proudest boast of San Francisco is her har-
bor. For many years and at the present time the conduct of this har-
bor has been under the jurisdiction of the State of California. We
are the only municipality within the State, outside of the city of
Eureka, that has not direct control over its harbor. I advise that an
effort be made at the present session of the Legislature either to ob-
tain direct control of our harbor by the City or for the formation of a
harbor district which will provide for joint control of both the San
Francisco and San Mateo harbor front by a joint commission, free from
State control. This will insure the development of our harbor into
San Mateo County. It will be my privilege to cooperate with the
bodies having this matter in hand to obtain such legislation.

(i) Economy. The financial burdens of our government are becom-
ing heavier each year upon our taxpayers. The greatest economy
should be exercised by every department of our municipality to avoid
unnecessary expenditures both in the matter of supplies and in the
matter of hiring of unnecessary employees. It is needless for me to

THURSDAY. JANUARY 8. 1931. 39

advert to the fact that the exi)enaes of municipal government neces-
sarily increase each year, and that the only way that the burden upon
the taxpayer can i)e lightened is by the strictest economy beinR ob-
served in all departments. It will be my purpose not only to urge,
but to insist upon this economy.

(j) liond.s for Construction of County Jail and Other Jmin-oi'evirnts.
During the recent election bonds were approved by the people of San
Francisco for the construction of a new branch County Jail and other
imiirovements. It is my firm conviction that these improvements
should be undertaken and tlie work of construction prosecuted with
dispatch. The buildings thus intended to be constructed are required
for immediate use and their early construction will likewise assist in
giving work to the unemployed.

As matters of importance arise from time to time it will be my pur-
pose to address you concerning them. In the meantime, I again ex-
press to you my sincere thanks and appreciation for placing me in
this high and exalted position and ask your sincere cooperation that
I may fully perform its duties to the satisfaction of yourselves and all
of the people of the City.

I fully realize that to make my administration as Mayor of San
Francisco successful It is essential that I have the whole-hearted sup-
port not only of the members of this Board and other municipal offi-
cials and employees, but also of the public press and the people of San
Francisco. With such support I will be enabled to successfully carry
on the progressive policies of my predecessor as well as those out-
lined by me in this address and those which are to follow.

Motion.

Supervisor Gallagher, seconded by Supervisors Hayden and Shannon,
moved that the foregoing address be spread at length in the Journal.

Upon the completion of the address of his Honor Mayor Rossi, the
members of the Board and representatives of various civic organiza-
tions paid their respects to the new Mayor, congratulating him and
wishing him success.

SUPERVISOR GALLAGHER: Mr. Mayor, and the eminent members
of the bar, my fellow City officials, representatives of the various
civic organizations, and my fellow citizens: It has been suggested,
perhaps not wisely, that I might, on behalf of your Board of Super-
visors— and I like to use that term in some small and humble sense —
state the attitude of mind of the Board and the position which those
of us who are asked to speak for it this day ought to occupy in the
matter of your future administration. I think I may say that in the
main you commence your career as Mayor of San Francisco with a
Board of Supervisors as agreeable to your policies, as mindful as it
can be of the great burdens that are upon you, and as receptive as can
be to the influence that you wish to wield upon it, and a desire to go
on with you, without equivocation or reservation, to work out the
iwlicies you have just outlined. It has been my privilege, beginning
with your incumbency which started today, that you are the fifth
Mayor whose inauguration as a City official I have had the pleasure
of witnessing, and yet I dare say, Mr. Mayor, and my fellow citizens,
that this is one inauguration into office that is entirely different. So
entirely different that it is remarkable and more refreshing than any
that we have had. Heretofore every induction of a Mayor into office
has made sad hearts somewhere in this community. Heretofore the
induction of a Mayor has meant the stepping into office of one man
who has been successful and the stepping out of office of one who has
lost the fight, however well made, but on this occasion the gentlemaa
you have succeeded goes to higher office in the State of California,
and you come into office, Mr. Mayor, without the feeling that before

40 THURSDAY, JANUARY 8, 1931.

the day is over a heart may be saddened because of your accession
to the office.

To say that there might not be those, even in the Board, a little
jealous of the present position that you are fortunate enough to oc-
cupy; to say that there are not those, may not be saying the truth.
Who doesn't envy you? Who vi^ouldn't desire to occupy the position
that you occupy now? A very laudable ambition for everybody to
have; but I think you can take office with a feeling that though per-
haps every member of this Board, or nearly every member of this
Board, would have heartily desired to have and occupy the place that
you occupy, now that you have been selected and now that you have
taken up the task, those things are past, and we become, in a sense,
your fellow servants.

I like the picture that is presented by your occupancy of the chair.
I repeat, no headaches, nobody disappointed in the fact that some-
body has to witness the outgoing Mayor while the new one comes in.
I like the picture presented of you sitting there surrounded by the
Police Department on the one side and the Fire Department on the
other, the two protecting arms of government, and alongside of you
the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the State of California and
on the other side of you perhaps the best protection you will ever
have as Mayor, the Honorable Mrs. Rossi (applause), and, of course,
I as sure the last to desert you, no matter what happens — the rest of
us you are not always sure about — ^and then in front of you, Mr.
Mayor, all of your fellow officials and all of your fellow citizens here
in the spirit of wishing you well.

The Mayor who has just left us, and we can say it now, did it with
a smile, and you people coined the phrase of "Saying it with flowers."
I trust that your incumbency of this office may be a flower, too, and
when I say that. I know that you know there will be many a spot in
the garden where, if you don't watch your step, you will stub your
toe. (Laughter.) I know today it is all flowers, but tomorrow comes
the kick; tomorrow comes the fellows who say we should buy the
railroad, and there might be others who say we shouldn't, and so on.

I like the tone, speaking for the Board, as I think I may, I like
the tone of your inaugural message. It was brief, it was to the point,
and yet as one recounts just a few of the subjects, you intend to say
that you hold to the policies of Mayor Rolph. That is your choice; to
that your Board doesn't hold you. I think the Board desires you to
be free. You intend to bring the water from Hetch Hetchy as soon
as possible; you intend to try to settle our problem in connection
Avith the War Memorial, schools, playgrounds, and so forth, a job as
big as any Mayor in the United States of America, if not in the world,
can undertake. I want to especially commend you on the harmonious
tone of your message. I want to commend you now before my fellow
citizens who have not been here all of the time for the splendid man-
ner in which as chairman of the Finance Committee you met the un-
employment problem, for, after all, it was one of the things which
made us feel that if you wanted to be the next Mayor of San Fran-
cisco we had a Mayor with a heart, and God help this City of ours if
ever we feel that there sits in the chair a man who is not only liberal-
minded, but a man who has no heart. This would not be the same
San Francisco. I like the way you tackled the unemployment prob-
lem. I would like your fellow citizens to know, Mr. Rossi, and now
Mayor Rossi, that you were willing to go into the red to the extent
of nearly half a million dollars that food might go into the stomachs
of men and women out of work and women and children who would
suffer. (Applause from the audience.)

I would like to say in passing, Mr. Mayor, gentlemen of the Board
and fellow citizens, that tomorrow at 3:30 the Citizens' Committee
to promote the bond issue to take care of unemployment is meeting

THURSDAY, JANUARY 8, 1931. 41

here, and I wish you could all be here, but, however, I don't want to
speak on that any further now.

Speaking, if I may, as one member of the Board who has been al-
lowed to speak for the other members, we bring to you, sir, in your
inauguration, if we are to be good Supervisors, if we are to be good
citizens, if we are to be good officials, we bring to you, sir, unquali-
fied and unreserved support in your policies for the good of San
Francisco. It will not do to vote for you as Mayor of San Francisco
and then refuse to support your policies. We are trusting that in
your leadership you shall always be right and that there may be no
need for disagreement, and if there are disagreements they may be
short. In short, as one member of the Board — perhaps taking a little
more time than I should — on account of a desire to express, I think,
the attitude of mind of the members of the Board of Supervisors to-
ward our new Mayor, we do wish you success. We are going to help to
make it for you. We know the problems you have taken on, and if we
are good Supervisors we will help you to solve them, and if between us,
between you and us, we can move on to a solution of these problems
peacefully, harmoniously and with full accord with you, I am sure
that the City and County of San Francisco will know it has been
benefited, and I am sure in that policy we will have the full approval
of you people of San Francisco, who, after all, are the real forces, and
after all, you, Mr. Mayor, and we, members of the Board of Super-
visors, desire most to serve and to serve in a sense that they will
approve of.

Thank you very much. (Prolonged applause.)

THE CHAIR: Supervisor Colman, you have the floor.

SUPERVISOR COLMAN: Mr. Mayor, members of the Board, fel-
low citizens:

Mr. Mayor, I should like to say a few words in offering you my con-
gratulations and in telling you of the pride and pleasure I took to-
day and took last week in casting my ballot for you as Mayor of the
City and County of San Francisco. I have had the privilege of serv-
ing -with you during your entire previous term as a Supervisor, and I
recall that the first constructive and splendid piece of legislation that
you, alone and unaided, put through; that was the creation of a Bu-
reau of Supplies. Prior to that time the purchasing of supplies was
in a somewhat chaotic condition, and through your efforts the present
Bureau of Supplies was adopted and established and it has functioned
continuously and successfully under the guidance of the man who re-
ceived the position as its head when the ordinance was passed and
who has since become an important part in San Francisco's official
life, Mr. Leavy.

I listened very attentively to your message and what you had to
say about the Hetch Hetchy project, the San Francisco Water Com-
pany and the Municipal Railways. I listened to it all very care-
fully, and I want to say to you on behalf of my committee that we
will be very happy to have your guidance and advice, and we will do
all in our power to put your ideas into execution.

May I say to Mrs. Rossi that I feel that already she has won the
heart of the people of San Francisco (applause), and I know that
she will occupy the position of first lady of San Francisco with charm
and graciousness and with dignity. (Applause.)

Mr. Mayor, I want to say in conclusion that in every one of your
official acts for the advancement of San Fi-ancisco you will have my
hearty and active support. As you well stated last week when you
addressed the Board and asked for the cooperation of this body, with-
out it you cannot hope to accomplish much. That is absolutely true,
and it is therefore our full duty to get behind you with all our might
in all the measures for the advancement of San Francisco.

42 THURSDAY, JANUARY 8, 1931.

In your desires to carry out the splendid policies of Mayor Rolph
I am in liearty accord, because I have never for a moment forgotten
that I am his appointee and that I owe the start of my political life
to the fact that he some ten years ago appointed me to this oflBce.
Therefore, you vi'ill have the advantage of the splendid ideas that he
has left to you, and in carrying them out you will be strengthened by
your OAvn clear vision, your love of San Francisco, your interest in
San Francisco and your deep knowledge of what San Francisco needs
and wants, and in all of this I pledge you my hearty support. (Ap-
plause,)

THE CHAIRMAN: Mr. Andriano, you have the floor.
SUPERVISOR ANDRIANO: Mr. Mayor, my colleagues of the Board,
public oflBcials, municipal employees, ladies and gentlemen: I agree
with Supervisor Gallagher that you are assuming office under very
favorable circumstances, but, on the other hand, I also believe that
you are assuming office under circumstances that are not quite so
auspicious. You are taking the place of a veteran Mayor who has
just bowed his way out very graciously from the chair which you
now occupy midst a blaze of glory and with the plaudits of the people
of San Francisco ringing in his ears, and it seems to me that anyone
who attempts to take the place and to fill the chair just vacated by
the champion Mayor of all the world has a considerable task before
him. I think, however, that you must find comfort in the fact that
the people of San Francisco are fully aware that you have a grievous,
or rather, a difficult task before you, that of filling the shoes — or I
should say the boots-— of Mayor Rolph, and l^ecause they are aware of
that fact I think that you can count upon their active support, their
good will and their cooperation.

I do not think that the people of San Francisco expect you to imi-
tate Mayor Rolph, because Mayor Rolph is quite inimitable. I think
that the people of San Francisco will expect you to adopt your own
brand of leadership, to shape your own policies, to exercise your own
methods and to use your own judgment. I feel confident that you are
both able and willing to do that. You possess considerable experi-
ence, both of an administrative and a political character, derived
from both private and public life. You possess good reasoning power,
you possess an upright conscience, and you possess an independent
judgment and ability to act upon that judgment. As an instance of
your administrative ability I would like to cite your administration
of the Dante Sanitarium, located in the block bounded by Van Ness
avenue, Polk street, Vallejo street and Broadway. Your administra-
tion as president of that sanitarium, with which I happen to be more
or less familiar, is an excellent example. You took charge of that
institution as its president in 1923 when it was a small sanitarium
with an investment of only some one hundred and fifty thousand dol-
lars and in rather precarious financial condition, and today that insti-
tution— which, by the way, is a nonprofit benevolent institution — under
your fine leadership and splendid administration has become one of
the best administrated hospitals in San Francisco, at least three times
the size that it was when you took it over, and now representing an
investment of upward of one million dollars.

That, to my mind, proves that you do possess executive and adminis-
trative ability.

I have had the privilege, Mr. Mayor, of being numbered among your
friends for a certain number of years. Never did I dream when I
first became your friend that some time I would be sitting on this
Board of Supervisors and that you would preside over it as our Mayor.
Needless to say, the fact that I count myself as your friend enhances
my pride and my satisfaction in seeing you occupying that chair. I
want to extend to you my heartfelt congratulations, my best wishes
and my pledge of earnest support and cooperation.

THURSDAY, JANUARY 8, 1931. 43

Oue word more. I suppose it would be ungracious of me, being an
American of Italiau origin, if I failed to advert to the fact that the
people of the Italian race of this City are particularly elated and
proud over the fact that you have been elevated to the exalted posi-
tion of Mayor of this City and County, and if I may assume the pre-
rogative of speaking for our fellow citizens of Italian origin, I wish
to pledge to you on their behalf their good will and assure you of
their gratification at your election and to assure you also that you
may always count upon their undivided support. And finally, I must
tell you that they would be quite indifferent if they failed to ade-
quately appreciate the fact that a man with the name of Angelo J.
Rossi, such a poetical sounding name, is the Mayor of a great City
that bears the name of another great Italian saint, St. Francis. (Loud
applause. )

SUPERVISOR HAYDEX: Mr. Mayor, Members of the Board: A
few of the members of the Board have already spoken by way of con-
gratulation and felicitation, and before we come to the asking of other
parties, I would like to ask some of the other members of the Board
be given the privilege of the floor for a few words.

(At this point Supervisor Power arose and was greeted with loud
applause.)

SUPERVISOR POWER: Mr. Mayor, my colleagues of the Board,
fellow citizens: If my health were a little better and I might have
the gift of oratory of some of my colleagues who have preceded me, I
should be very glad to make a speech, but under the circumstances
I do wish to say, sincerely and from the heart, that I extend to you
my congratulations and my best wishes for a very successful adminis-
tration.

I, like my colleagues wiio preceded me, want to commend you on
your very fine and constructive message, and I wish to pledge to you
my whole-hearted support in carrying out whatever policies you lay
out for your endeavors.

I congi-atulate you and I also extend to you and to Mrs. Rossi and
your dear family a sincere wish for a very happy and prosperous New
Year. (Applause.)

SUPERVISOR SUHR: Honorable Mayor, members of the Board of
Supervisors, fellow citizens, ladies and gentlemen: I should like tO'
say just a word or two in congratulation at this time. I want to add
my congratulations to those of the others and to assure you of my
support in the future as you have had it in the past, and to wish to
you all possible good luck in your coming administration. (Applause.)

SUPERVISOR PEYSER: Mr. Mayor, members of the Board, ladies
and gentlemen: I, too, at this time, Mr. Mayor, wash to take this
opportunity of congratulating you upon your ascension to the highest
position in the gift of the people of San Francisco. It has been my
very great pleasure to serve with you on this Board for one year, my
first year in public office, and I wish to say to you that I feel that
you have at all times displayed a very high type of leadership, and
that it has been my pleasure to work with you. I have at all times
felt that I was able to support fully the policies w'hich you laid down.
That being the case, I feel that you will still have those same policies
for the constructive progress of San FVancisco, and I can assure you
of my whole-hearted support in that direction. I am satisfied that
this will be for the good of both yourself and the City of San Fran-
cisco. I hope and feel that this Board of Supervisors will work har-
moniously with you to the end that those things which you have ex-
pressed will come true, and again wishing to you and Mrs. Rossi a
happy and prosperous New Year, and to yourself a successful adminis-
tration. (Applause.)

SUPERVISOR SHANNON: Honorable Mayor, members of the
Board of Supervisors, ladies and gentlemen: Mr. Mayor, in offering

44 THURSDAY, JANUARY 8, 1931.

my congratulations to you and complimenting you upon your message,
I desire to call attention to the fact that you are succeeding a super-
man, and we all trust that you will not endeavor to keep up to the
pace that he has set for years in hours of work and in few hours of
sleep. If I were a believer in reincarnation, I would believe that he is
Samson, the slayer of the Philistines, returned tO' life, because I think
that no man in public office within the gift of the American people
has ever been able to keep up the pace set by the new Governor of
the State of California. We know that Samson slew ten thousand
Philistines with the jawbone of an ass, but in Governor Rolph's rein-
carnated life he brought to life about one million voters with a smile.
(Laughter.)

You come to this Board, Mr. Mayor, with a wealth of experience
previous to your membership on this Board, a man very active in
civic affairs. Then you had five years' experience on the Board, so
that you come into the office with a full knowledge of the things that
you will have to face, and the members of the Board w^ill be delighted
to assist you in all of the policies that you have announced and all of
the problems that you will have to face. We know that you will do
your full 'duty according to your light and your conscience, and
while we do not expect this City to be known as the Paris of
America, we trust that in consulting with your executives, and par-
ticularly those in charge of the Police Department, you will realize
that the people of San Francisco want, as fully as possible, the liberty
for enjoyment that a majority of the people of this City desire, so
that when the stranger is here within our gates and whem he returns
to his home and friends he may truly say "San Francisco is the City
that knows how."

To you and Mrs. Rossi 1 wish every success, and I assure you of
my full cooperation, every success that your fondest hopes anticipate.
(Applause.)

SUPERVISOR STANTON: Honorable Mayor of the City of San
Francisco, members of the Board of Supervisors, my fellow citizens:
Mr. Mayor, I too want to add my words of congratulation on your
becoming the Mayor of the City of San Francisco.

I feel greatly responsible for the position which you hold with the
people of San Francisco, and I also feel satisfied that after a year of
service, which is not very long, that we will be able to go out to the
people of San Francisco and again return you to this office. (Loud
applause.)

I know that your task if not an easy one; you have but one year
before you, when you again face the people of San Francisco for elec-
tion, and, as one of the preceding Supervisors said, there are always
many who are willing to fill the shoes of the Mayor of a City such as
this.

Therefore it behooves you to be up on your toes and to give to San
Francisco such a Mayor that no one will dare attempt to displace you.

Personally, I feel that you are eminently qualified to occupy the
position of Mayor of the City and County of San Francisco, having
started from the bottom and worked to the top; having started from
the bottom in business and worked to the position of being a success-
ful business man, the same as you have in public life, and therefore
knowing both sides of the situation, I feel confident that labor will
be properly treated and capital likewise. I feel, Mr. Mayor, that you
will be a wonderful person to deal with both labor and capital in a
manner creditable to yourself and to the City of San Francisco. You
have already shown that you have a heart, you have already shown
that your heart is with those in need, and I know that you will con-
tinue so to do. I know that you will do all you can to aid and com-
fort those who have been in a way unfortunate and depressed. Much
has to be done, not only in San Francisco, but throughout the length

THURSDAY. JANUARY 8. 1931. 45

and breadth of the country. When you stop to tliink that in a land
of plenty there is so much want and misery, where in a land where
there are continuous cries of overproduction, and where warehouses
are bursting their sides with food products, the people are still crying
for work. 1 am satisfied that you in your small way as Mayor of the
City of San Francisco will do all in your power to aid in solving this
great problem.

There are many big problems before you, Mr. Mayor, and your pro-
.gram as laid out is a wonderful one, and if you are able to commence
them, Mr. Mayor, and to put them into execution, and if you can get
fairly along with them, you will have done a wonderful thing for San
Francisco.

I too also feel that as the Mayor of San Francisco you are put upon
your own legs, and put there to put over for San Francisco the best
government that you know how, and I as one member of this Board
feel that I speak for the rest of the Board of Supervisors when I say
that we are whole-heartedly behind you, and I hope that God will
give you the strength and courage to carry out the things you have
started, and that you will do them so well that at the end of this one
year we will be able to reelect you for another term. (Loud applause.)

SUPEHVISOR SPAULDING: Honorable Mayor, my colleagues on
the Board, ladies and gentlemen: Mayor Rossi, I likewise wish to
congratulate you upon this your inauguration to the office of Mayor
of the City and County of San Francisco.

It is needless for me to go on talking, Mr. Mayor, because 1 have
supported you from the time you came on this Board, and 1 supported
and gave you my vote for Mayor because I knew your policies were
sound, and I will continue to support you and the policies laid down
by you as long as 1 am a member of the Board and you are the Mayor
of the Citv and County of San Francisco. (Applause.)

SUPERVISOR ROXCOVIERI: Mr. Mayor. Mrs. Rossi, members of
the Board, ladies and gentlemen: I know, Mr. Mayor, that you have
no illusions concerning the importance of the task that lies before you.
1 am certain that through your experience you realize what lies before
you. Therefore, knowing, as I am sure you do, that no administration
can possibly be a success by itself alone. I pledge you my support and
my heartiest cooperation in all things that will make for the better-
ment of conditions in San Francisco. (Applause.)

SUPERVISOR McGOVERN: Mr. Mayor, members of the Board of
Supervisors, ladies and gentlemen: In offering you that cooperation
that is apparently your desire in your message to this Board, let me
say to you just this— this applies to your wife, too, as we naturally
all know that whatever the problems of the Mayor and whatever the
concern of the Mayor are also the concern of his wife — let me say to
you this. ~Mv. Mayor, we have had experience of your ability and meth-
ods in the handling of your work on this Board, and while we know
that you are a different type than the Mayor we have just lost, never-
theless, knowing your straight-line methods of doing business, I look
forward expecting that you will do your full duty as Mayor just as
successfully as you have as chairman of the Finance Committee of
this Board. I am sure, Mr. Mayor, with the amount of confidence
which the people of San Francisco have in you. all you have to do, Mr.
Mayor, is to follow on just as you have done as chairman of the Fi-
nance Committee, and I can assure you that if you do your possibilities
are unlimited. That is my best wish for you for the next year, and I
feel sure that it will be realized, and I also assure you of my whole-
hearted support. (Applause.)

SUPERVISOR CANEPA: Mr. Mayor, Mrs. Rossi, public officials,
my colleagues on the Board, ladies and gentlemen: Mr. Mayor, I
want to extend to you my sincere congratulations, and I desire to recall
the first occasion wiien I had the opportunity to become acquainted
with you and to know you. I can recall before you became a public
servant of our City and County. At that time you were actively en-

46 THURSDAY, JANUARY 8, 1931.

gaged, together with the dean of the Board, as a memher of the prin-
cipal committee of the Native Sons and Native Daughters, the com-
mittee for the raising of funds for the care of the homeless children
of our City, and I remember your excellent work on that committee.

I can also recall, Mr. Mayor, that you were active in a number of
organizations of our City, and I am happy indeed to say to you that
the representatives of labor and that the representatives of capital of
our City were united for you and for your appointment as the Mayor
of our City and County.

I know that you stand for the earliest completion of the Hetch
Hetchy Water Project, and I know that you stand for bringing that
water to our homes and to our factories, so that all of the people of
our City may have cheaper water, and ample water; I know that you
stand for the early completion of our Aquatic Park, and the Yacht Har-
bor, and also for the comi)letion at the earliest possible moment of the
reclamation of our tide lands, so that we may have more factory sites,
particularly in the Islais Creek district. You have mentioned a num-
ber of the problems which the people of this City are exceedingly in-
terested in, and I am happy indeed and proud to be a member of this
Board of Supervisors which appointed you as Mayor of this City and
County. I know, listening to your message, which was not only to the
members of this Board but also to the citizens of San Francisco, that
after a term of one year the citizens of our City will reelect you for
the four-year term. I feel that they have confidence that you will
bring in constructive and progressive legislation for this Board to
adopt.

On account of the time I desire to be as brief as possible, and I will
close by extending to you my heartiest congratulations upon your
appointment and assuring you of my full support for all legislation
which you may bring in for the improvement of our City and the
betterment of the conditions for our laboring people, which will bring
progress to the merchants of our City. I again desire to extend my
sincere best wishes and congratulations to yourself and Mrs. Rossi
and your family.

SUPERVISOR HAYDEN: Honorable Mayor, my colleagues on the
Board of Supervisors, city officials, ladies and gentlemen: Mr. Mayor,
before I call on your friends and representatives from various organ-
izations here today I would just like to say a few brief words as one
of your prior colleagues on the Board and as one of your dearest
friends. Indeed, it is very hard for me to speak here today and praise
one who is as close to me as a brother, because I feel as though I
know him so well, so intimately, more so than any man in this room.
However, as a dear friend to me, it is indeed very pleasing, very grati-
fying, to hear my colleagues here today congratulate and applaud the
fine qualities of our new Mayor in the person of Angelo J. Rossi. They
reflect the sentiments that I long have held; they reflect the apprecia-
tion of ability that I have always known, and, after this constructive
message which has been delivered here today, I think we are all satis-
fied that he is going to bring about a rehabilitation of those things
which mean so much to our City. We join with him and offer him our
united cooperation.

Mr. Mayor, I intended to tell you how much I wish you to succeed;
you know how ardently I have joined you in all your aspirations, and
how proudly I join with my colleagues in wishing you the success you
so rightly deserve.

I am very glad indeed to hear a statement coming from one so
distinguished as a representative of labor as Supervisor William Stan-
ton, who feels in his confidence in you and in our joint confidence in
you that after one year of your administration we will come together
again and feel just as proud a year hence as we do today; that we will
then come before the people of San Francisco and, on the successful
results of your administration, again present you to the people, and
we hope that you will come back with the endorsement of the people of
San Francisco, and that the electorate, by a vote that will be satis-

THURSDAY. JANUARY 8, 1931. 47

factory and by a substantial majority, will place you in this position
which you now occupy for four years more. Those are my wishes,
Mr. Mayor. (Applause.)

Mr. Mayor and my colleagues on the Board, as I glance around the
room I see hundreds of friends of yours, each one of whom would like
to speak and say a few words from their hearts, just as the members
of the Board have spoken, but we are not going to burden you today
with a long program. However, I feel that a few representatives from
the business organizations, a few from the fraternal, and a few from
the labor organizations should be given an opportunity to say a few
words. I am going to ask as the first speaker that we hear a few words
from Mr. L. S. Cutler, president of the San Francisco Chamber of
Commerce.

MR. CUTLER: Honorable Mayor, members of the Board of Super-
visors, ladies and gentlemen: Mr. Mayor, the business life of San
Francisco delights in the honor which has come to you, and it wel-
comes you to the leadership of this great City. It commends to you
no special interest, because, if our City is to be great, special interests,
either of the rich* or of the poor, must not thrive.

You know San Francisco and San Francisco knows you. We are
proud of the sincerity and euthusiasm with which you have entered
into the organized business life of San Francisco, and we are proud of
the respect and friendships which you have gained in the business life
of San Francisco. We are grateful to you and commend you for the
sanity and balance with which you have participated in the City
government of San Francisco.

It is entirely fitting that you should be our leader; you have earned
it, as you have faced successfully the great tasks and great resporrsi-
bilities of business life, and you face a great task and great responsi-
bilities now. San Francisco wants to help you in that task, and wants
to respond as though it were in partnership with you, and we ask
that you remind us when we are neglectful of our part and our respon-
sibility, because we also want to help San Francisco.

We wish you more than good luck; we wish you godspeed on the
road ahead. (Applause.)

SUPERVISOR HAYDEN: Now, I should like to present Mr. Frank
C. MacDonald, president of the State Building Trades Council of Cali-
fornia.

MR. MacDONALD: Mr. Mayor, Mrs. Rossi, "first lady" of San FYan-
cisco, honorable members of the Board of Supervisors, ladies and gen-
tlemen: On this very happy, important historical occasion it is indeed
with a great sense of gratification that I am able to come here as the
representative of the men and women toilers of San Francisco and con-
vey to you their wishes for success.

We are conscious of the fact that you are seriously handicapped by
being the successor in leadership in this City to a genius that capti-
vated with smiles; we are conscious of the fact that you assume the
grave responsibility of Mayor of this City and County at a time when,
apparently, industry and stocks have reached bottom. Fortunately, the
indications are that we have reached the period or the point of the
upswing of finance, of labor and of industry. There will be a serious
intervening point.

You, Mr. Mayor, and your colleagues on the Board of Supervisors,
have won the undying gratitude and have insured yourselves of the
unqualified support of the men and women of toil of this City by your
act in putting the City's finances into the red that men and women
and children might not hunger. You have sponsored a bond issue that
must be carried by an overwhelming vote of the people of San Fran-
cisco. I am sure that the learned representatives of the judiciary who
meet with you here today will agree that there is nothing in the law
of the United States, of our State or of our City that contemplates that
men, women and children should ever go hungry. You have followed
the task of safety and justice in dealing with this matter.

48 THURSDAY, JANUARY 8, 1931.

You have mentioned a program of construction. I am privileged to
.represent the men and women who will carry out those construction
programs. Each day, upon your major construction projects, of Hetch
Hetchy and so on, our men go out prepared to sacrifice limb and life
to insure the consummation of those projects. The same loyalty, the
same service that has heretofore been given through the Mayor and
the administrative forces of San Francisco to San Francisco by the
men of labor will be extended to you without reservation or qualifica-
tion.

I am indeed pleased to have the honor of conveying to you this
message that the men of labor of San Francisco will unitedly, loyally
and unswervingly carry out those projects that mean the success of
your leadership as Mayor of the City and County of San Francisco.
(Loud applause.)

SUPERVISOR HAYDEN: Mr. Chairman, Mr. Mayor, the women
of the City of San Francisco play a very important part in the civic
and commercial life of our City, and naturally we should like to hear
from them. They have a representative here in Mrs. Jessie M. White-
head, president of the City and County Federation of. Women's Clubs.
Mrs. Whitehead.

MRS. WHITEHEAD: Mr. Rossi, Mr. Hayden, members of the Board,
and ladies and gentlemen: It is a pleasure to express to you the grati-
fication of the clubwomen of San Francisco over your election to the
Mayor's office. Personally I have known your splendid wife and your
lovely daughters for many years. I am familiar with the wholesome
family life in your home, and I know the high type of men and women
who frequent that home and enjoy its lavish hospitality, and with this
knowledge I can say to the clubwomen of San Francisco that a man
that is the htad of such a household is worthy to be the head of our
City; a man with a background of such a home, such a family and
such friends will give us a clean and upright administration.

Your Honor and Mrs. Rossi, on behalf of the City and County Fed-
eration of Women's Clubs, I congratulate you and wish you success.

SUPERVISOR HAYDEN: Mr. Mayor, members of the Board of
Supervisors: On this happy occasion we are all honored by the pres-
ence of the honorable Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the State
of California, William H. Waste, whom I will now ask for a few
words.

CHIEF JUSTICE WASTE: Mr. Hayden, Honorable Mayor Rossi,
Mrs. Rossi, members of the Board of Supervisors, and ladies and gentle-
men: One of the contentions at the present time agitating the bench
and bar of this State is the length of judicial decisions. In this case
I shall adhere to the contention that they should be as short as possible.

It is a delight, of course, for me, as a resident of the neighboring
East Bay district, to come in that capacity as a citizen of this great
metropolitan area and convey my personal greetings to my long-time
friend, the present Mayor of this CMty.

Now, I did all that I possibly could to hurry forward this time. I
went to Sacramento to make the resignation of his Honor Mayor Rolph
effective, so that Mr. Rossi might be elevated to the position of Mayor,
and when I got my opportunity I lost no time in making that possible.

I have been delighted, of course, to hear all of the fine things said
about the new Mayor of San Francisco, and anything that I could say,
even by taking up a great deal of your time, would not convince any-
body not already convinced that the City is not to be congratulated
on the resignation of our former Mayor and his appointment as Gov-
ernor of the State, and making it possible for Supervisor Angelo J.
Rossi and his wife to be the first lady and the first gentleman of this
City.

Of course, Mayor Rossi has heard a great deal this afternoon about
himself and Mrs. Rossi, but he will only get the full import of it all
in the secrecy of his own home, I am sure of that. Regarding that,
I think I might repeat a little incident which occurred to me, rather
humorous, to which I referred once before. I was first appointed to

THURSDAY. JANUARY 8, 1931. 49

the bench just twenty-six years ago. and when I received my original
commission as a member of the judiciary I was very proud, and in-
vited my wife and a number of friends to attend the ceremony. The
induction into office was held in the old courthouse in Oakland, and my
wife and family came and slipped into the courtroom and sat in and
absorbed the entire ceremonies. There were many references made to
the new judge and 1 received the congratulations of friends on tiie
bench and bar. I admit I began to feel very happy and very proud
of myself, and thought it was all coming off just splendidly, but that
evening at dinner my wife said to me, "That was quite a ceremony
this afternoon, but who were they talking about?" (Laughter.) That
was my experience twenty-six years ago, and it is a hard one to realize
at the time.

Mayor Rossi said to me in the privacy of his office, when he insisted
that I cnme over and sit by him today, that he was deeply touched,
and wondered just how he was going to get along, and that he would
be very glad when this was all over. Of course he will be, and we are
very glad of this, and we are glad to have had the pleasure I am sure
we have had in this opportunity today of expressing our loyalty and
paying our respects to him. As Mayor of this great City the judiciary
system of the State at this time can hardly do more than express, and
that very briefly, its decision in the matter, because you know, until
some disgruntled taxpayer or citizen comes along and raises the ques-
tion, w^e do not have an opportunity to go into any of these matters at
very great length.

However, so far as the proceedings this afternoon may be regarded
as judicial proceedings, may I say, and this will be very brief, that
thus far the judgment of the Board of Supervisors of the City and
County of San Francisco is approved and confirmed. (Applause.)

SUPERVISOR HAYDEN: Mr. Mayor, I see present representatives
from an organiaztion of w-hich you are a past president, that is, the
Down Town Association, and I wish next to present Mr. Marshall Hale,
president of the Down Town Association, and ask him for a few words.

MR. HALE: Mr. Hayden, His Honor the Mayor and Mrs. Rossi,
Chief Justice Waste, the Honorable Board of Supervisors and fellow
citizens: The most impressive part of this ceremony today is the
laudation of yourself and the promises by the members of the Board
of Supervisors to back up your administration. I think with the
spirit that has been shown here today that there will be very little
use for your calling upon improvement clubs, the Downtown Associa-
tion, and so on, because you' will be doing it all. If thin.gs, however,
do not run as smoothly during all of that time, and in the same man-
ner in which they start, you will always find loyal support from us
in the splendid things that you stand for the benefit and for the
upbuilding of our fair City.

San Francisco has gone through many strifes; we have just finished
with a Mayor who for 19 years has brought this City from its ashes
to the imperial city of the Pacific Coast. Those events have come
and have passed, and it was last Saturday that we bid good-bye to
Honorable James Rolph, Jr., when he was promoted to become the
Governor of this State of California.

I want to say to you people in San Francisco that you can well feel
proud of the man whom you have now selected to be your Mayor. He
represented you and the City of San Francisco at the inaugural ser-
vices for Mayor Rolph with credit and with distinction, and we can
count upon his continuing to represent you in that manner.

It is useless to tell you people what has been done in the past with
these splendid officers in the different departments of the City and
County of San Francisco. I see here one who has done so much to
bring the Police Department to where it is, and that is Dan O'Brien,
and we now have Chief Quinn to carry on, and one who has gone and
who rendered a loyal and faithful service to the City and Countv of

50 THURSDAY, JANUARY 8. 1931.

San Francisco was Tom Murphy, who was Chief of the Fire Depart-
ment and which is today represented by Chief Brennan as one of the
guards of honor.

Those things are in the past, but we have something to do in the
future. San Francisco is rich in her heritage, and we look forward
to the wonderful development of Hetch Hetchy, the Golden Gate
bridge, the schools, the playgrounds, the railroads, and all of those
other improvements. As Supervisor Gallagher so well said, there is
no city in the world that has more important things to do than San
Francisco, and at the head and leading us in those plans for the de-
velopment of a greater and bigger and grander San Francisco is
Angelo J. Rossi, whom we have known for so many years and whom
we of the Downtown Association have worked with. We know his
sterling worth. One of the most important essentials of a man's char-
acter is honesty, integrity and ability, and your Mayor at the present
time has all of those, and I want to bespeak for you and for Mrs. Rossi
a most successful and happy year and for your administration, and
may you guide the destinies of this City in a manner not only you
will be proud of, but in a manner such that every citizen of San Fran-
cisco will look up to the man that leads us onward and upward. (Ap-
plause.)

SUPERVSOR HAYDEN: I should now like to present to you Mrs.
Stone, the president of the San Francisco Center, League of Women
Voters. Mrs. Stone.

MRS. STONE: Mr. Hayden, Mayor Rossi, ladies and gentlemen:
The San Francisco Center, League of Women Voters, feels it a very
great privilege to be allowed to express to you our sincere congratula-
tions, Mayor Rossi, because of your record as Chairman of the Finance
Committee and because you have been selected by your colleagues to
the highest office in the City and County of San Francisco. We look
forw^ard with great pleasure to working with you for the best inter-
ests of our City, and hope for you every success. (Applause.)

SUPERVISOR HAYDEN: We would now like to hear from Mr.
Roy H. Baker, president of the San Francisco Labor Council.

MR. BAKER: Mayor Rossi, Honorable Board of Supervisors, ladies
and gentlemen: Speaking for organized labor, the office of Mayor is
very important, and in Mayor Rossi we feel there is a man going into
that office who will give the very best that is in him. We feel that he
is honest, we feel that he has the experience, and we feel that in him
we have a man that will do the very best possible for both capital
and labor.

We realize that at the present time there is hunger on our streets,
and we also realize that there is food in abundance in this country.
I listened quite attentively to the message of his Honor Mayor Rossi
today, and it impressed me very deeply. You spoke of many of the
things I am interested in and many of the things which I hope will
be worked out successfully.

This City occupies a very unique position. I am quite familiar with
the early history of our City and State and the struggle of California
in the early days when it was sought to unite California with the
south, and at that time the struggle practically centered in this City.
Our City of San Ftancisco is a city that wherever you go is looked
upon by the man who works as one city where the man who works in
the dirt is considered just as good as the man with his millions, and
that is what must appeal to those progressive citizens who want to
see a brotherhood of man in the future. If we had to we could feed
two-thirds of the population of the world in the center of this country.
What is our future going to be? To me this City will be the greatest
of the great cities the world has ever seen, and with our present Mayor
I feel satisfied that we are starting out to lay the future foundation,
and the future will not rest altogether on property; you will see the

THURSDAY. JANUARY 8, 1931. 51

world over that it will rest not only on property, bnt on the people;
the people are beginning to realize that we mnst do away with con-
sideration of property alone and consider the person as well as
property.

I want to assnre you, Mr. Rossi, now Mayor Rossi, that organized
labor will at all times in carrying out these many things you spoke
about in your message give you full cooperation. (Applause.)

SUPERVISOR HAYDEN: Mr. Mayor, I have just a few si)eakers
left, after which there will be a presentation made. As I have al-
ready indicated, we would like very much to hear from various ones in
this vast audience, which, of course, is made up of your friends, but
that is an impossible task, so I will have to ask those who cannot be
given an opportunity to personally speak to bear with us and to appre-
ciate the length of the program thus far.

The next gentlemen I am going to present to you is Mr. .John Newell,
grand president of the Native Sons of the Golden West. (Applause.)

MR. NEWELL: Brother Angelo Rossi, the Honorable Mayor of the
City and County of San Francisco, Mrs. Rossi, our First Lady, and
ladies and gentlemen: It is indeed a pleasure to have the opportu-
nity of being present on this occasion to express to your Honorable
Mayor the appreciation of every member of our organization for the
wonderful service that he has given in carrying out the great princi-
ples of fraternity and the principle which we represent of friendship,
loyalty and charity.

I have just witnessed that wonderful demonstration in Sacramento,
that great tribute that was paid to the former Mayor of San Fran-
cisco, now our Governor of this great State, the State of his birth,
James Rolph, Jr., and I feel from that great experience, where that
man has advanced step by step to the most exalted position in the
gift of the people of this great State of ours, that your Mayor of San
Francisco by his great loyalty to his State will follow in his footsteps
and make such a Mayor as your former Mayor of San Francisco, and,
as I may dare say, still maintain the same height of that dome that
sits over the City Hall of your great City.

Coming from Los Angeles, and as grand president, representing our
fraternity, I want to express to you our great appreciation that you
have been elected as Mayor of the City of San FVancisco, and to offer
our congratulations, and we hope and know that it will be a wonder-
ful success, and we also want to express to you and to Mrs. Rossi the
hope for a long life of happiness and prosperity. (Applause.)

SUPERVISOR HAYDEN: I know that an invitation was extended
to his Excellency James Rolph, Jr., now Governor of this great and
glorious State of ours, and I also know that by reason of the great
pressure of public business he was unable to be present and join you
in this inauguration program, bnt I understand that you have a wire
from him, which the Clerk will please read at this time.

(Thereupon the Clerk of the Board read the following telegram: )

Sacramento, Calif., January 8, 1931.
Honorable Angelo J. Rossi, Mayor of San Francisco, City Hall.

Dear Mayor Rossi: I extend to you my sincere congratulations on
your appointment to succeed me as Mayor of San Francisco and I
wish you unbounded success. This is made certain because of your
knowledge and years of experience in the operation of San Fran-
cisco's affairs. I send to you and Mrs. Rossi very best wishes and
good luck.

Sincerely,

JAMES ROLPH, JR.

SUPERVISOR HAYDEN: And now, Mr. Mayor, I should like to
have Mr. Edward Rainey, the former Secretary to his Honor the Gov-
ernor, James Rolph, Jr., say a few words:

52 THURSDAY, JANUARY 8, 1931.

EDWARD RAINEY: My dear Mayor, my dear neighbor, and my
dear friend Mayor Rossi, and also my dear friend Mrs. Rossi: It is
a wonderful pleasure to stand here in this chamber today, where you
have served so well as a Supervisor and where his Honor Mayor Rolph
previously sat, and to give you the very cordial congratulations of the
Governor of the State of California, as Mayor.

I agree with our Honorable Chief Justice that the time is very lim-
ited, and also I would state that I have very little to say, sir, except
this, that you have been elected to what, in my opinion, is one of the
three great offices in the United States below the ofRce of President.
My prejudice in his favor will probably cause me to put the Governor
of the State of California first, then comes the Mayor of San Fran-
cisco and after that the Mayor of the city of New York.

I know from your experience and from my knowledge of your char-
acter that you will be a very great successor to the greatest Mayor
of all, who has just been inaugurated as Governor of this State, and
I have heard him express personally his very high opinion of you and
his hope for your success, and I know the sincerity with which that
expression was made.

So far as I am personally concerned, I am not going to make myself
offensive around your office trying to tell you how we did things, but
if my experience at any time will be of any value to you, I can only
say that my new office telephone number will be Douglas 7520, and
should you by chance be at your desk at any time at night and I can
be of service to you, my home telephone is Fillmore 0723.

May I say in closing that I join with all those who have wished
you well today, and particularly with Supervisor Power, in wishing
you and Mrs. Rossi a very happy year. (Applause.)

SUPERVISOR HAYDEN: There is another very important women's
civic organization representatives here today, the Women's Civic Cen-
ter, and I would like to call upon Mrs. Mary P. McShane.

MRS. McSHANE: Honorable Mayor, Mr. Hayden, members of the
Board of Supervisors: It gives me very great pleasure to be here
and to congratulate you, Mr. Rossi, as Mayor of our beautiful City of
San Francisco, and I assure you that we are only too glad to assist
you in every way we can. The Women's Civic Center will do all it
can, and we wish to congratulate you again and wish you every suc-
cess during your term of office.

SUPERVISOR HAYDEN: Honorable Mayor, with your permission,
so far as the time of the program is concerned, we will ask now to
close the ceremony with a presentation by Mrs. Edna Erne of the
Native Daughters of the Golden West.

MRS. ERNE: Mr. Mayor and Mrs. Rossi: As president of the
Golden Empire Association, Native Daughters of the Golden West, I
wish to express to you for them our appreciation for all of the favors
you have done for us, and to state to you that we were very happy
indeed when you were selected to become the Mayor of our great and
beautiful City of San Francisco.

It is now my privilege and pleasure to present to you these two
iflags. Tliis little bear carries the flag which is the message of our as-
sociation, and this other little bear carries the flag of our nation. This
one bears the flag of our State and bears the message of loyalty, friend-
ship, charity and patience.

May these little bears ever be an inspiration to you when your work
becomes too hard and too weighty. ' Thank you very much.

SUPERVISOR HAYDEN: Mr. Mayor, Mr. Canepa brings me a
message from Mr. Edgar Leavy, Speaker of the Assembly, wishing
you godspeed and success in your administration.

Mr. Mavor, that concludes the committee's program.

SUPERVISOR POWER: I wish to offer a motion that the Clerk
of this Board have a transcript made of today's proceedings and prop-
erly engrossed upon the record and presented to his Honor the Mayor.

THURSDAY. JANUARY 8, 1931. 53

SUPERVISOR HAYDEN: Second the motion.

THE CHAIR: If there is no objection, such will be the order.
THE CHAIR: My dear friends, colleagues of the Board of Super-
visors, and my fellow-citizens: I know that you all fully appreciate
my feelings at this particular moment, after all of the nice things that
have been said about me; also the fact that I have this day assumed
the highest office within the gift of the people of San Francisco. How-
ever, I am mindful of the fact that I was not elected by the people of
San Francisco to be their chief executive— I was elected as a member
of this Board of Supervisors, due to the fact that a vacancy occurred
which made it incumbent upon the membership of this Board to select
Mayor James Rolph's successor. They have taken upon themselves a
great responsibility, and that responsibility which I now assume is
just as much theirs as it is mine.

I fully appreciate, as well as any one, that following in the foot-
steps of a man who has served his beloved City for the past nine-
teen years, and a man who has tendered his resignation to the people
of San Francisco, leaving behind him such a splendid record of
public service, makes my position all the more difficult. But w^e
are happy indeed, and we are proud of the fact that we had such a
man as James Rolph, Jr., as our Mayor, who assumed office as Mayor
of this great City in 1911, assumed that office when this City was in
ashes, and, after nineteen years of service, we can all point now to a
City not alone San Francisco can be proud of, but the entire United
States.

My thoughts go back to last Saturday when His Excellency the Gov-
ernor of our State tendered his resignation to the people of San Fi-an-
cisco as their Mayor, and it is very seldom indeed, if ever, when an
individual serving the people in an official capacity, and serving them
for a period of 19 years, that his resignation would be reluctantly ac-
cepted. But in accepting his resignation and on his way to Sacra-
mento to become Governor of this State he carried with him the love,
confidence, the esteem and the gratitude of a grateful people. That is
the reason why I say that my position is difficult, to fill his shoes.
Oh, how often have we heard him say that he was the proudest man
in all the world to be Mayor of this great City of ours. How often
have we heard him say that he was proud of the dome of our City
Hall. But as I said the other evening at Sacramento at the inaugu-
ral banquet, the name and the fame of James Rolph, Jr., will live
long after the dome of this City Hall is no more.

I am very grateful to all of those who have spoken today and ex-
pressed their confidence in me, and fully realizing the responsibility
which I have assumed, I know that I will not be a success unless I
have the cooperation of all well-meaning people, unselfish people and
unselfish organizations, but those who have the welfare and interest
of San Francisco at heart. While I am pleased to hear the kind ex-
pressions that were uttered here today, I want your cooperation. We
want a united San Francisco, and if we work together with a united
front San Francisco will continue to make progress as it has in the
past.

While listening to those who were speaking here today the thought
went through my mind — because this is only an induction into office
— while it is true you have expressed thoughts as to my sincerity, my
desire to do something for the City which I love, still at the same
time I hope that when my term comes to an end that every one who
has spoken here today will have the same thought in mind, the same
thoughts of me and have the same confidence in me.

I want to assure you one and all that it is my desire to give to the
people of San Francisco the very best that is in me. I don't want to
be a better Mayor than Mayor James Rolph, Jr., but I am going to
endeavor to be as good a Mayor as he was, and, as I said before, I
am going to ask you for your cooperation.

54 THURSDAY, JANUARY 8, 1931.

I want to thank you one and all from the bottom of my heart for
your kind expressions and good wishes.

Mrs. Erne presented me with the American flag and the Bear flag.
That brings me back to the time when I joined the order of Native
Sons of the Golden West. That was many years ago; that was my
first love in fraternal life, although my love for California started
from the time I first saw the light. When I sat between the two flags
at the altar I took the oath to carry out the principles of that order,
namely, friendship, loyalty and brotherly love, and I am very glad
indeed that Mrs. Erne, representing the Native Daughters, presented
me with the American flag and the Bear flag today, and I want to
assure you that nothing could have been given to me which I would
appreciate more. I shall place them on my desk and be ever mindful
of my obligations to the people of San Francisco.

In closing I want to thank you again from the very bottom of my
heart, and I only hope that my actions as your Mayor may be such
that you will never have any regret for what you have done today and
that the Board of Supervisors may never regret that they elected me
as successor to Mayor James Rolph, Jr.

After this meeting is over I am going over to the ofiice of the Mayor
and I will be very happy indeed to greet you one and all as the Mayor
of your City, and as your Mayor I thank you. (Prolonged applause.)

On motion of Supervisor Colman the following matter was laid over

January 19. 1931.
To the Honorable Board of Supervisors.

The committee appointed by your honorable Board to confer with
the Secretary of the Interior relative to the obligations of the City
and County of San Francisco under the Raker Act. which committee
was composed of Supervisors Jesse C. Colman, J. Emmet Hayden and
James B. McSheehy, City Engineer M. M. O'Shaughnessy and City
Attorney John J. O'Toole, did, pursuant to the directions of your
•Board, proceed to Washington, and on the 4th day of December, 1930,
had a conference with Hon. Ray Lyman Wilbur, Secretary of the
Interior, as to the City's obligations under the Raker Act in so far as
the distribution of hydro-electric power and the construction of roads
in the Yosemite National Park are concerned.

The conference took place at the office of the Secretary, and there
were present thereat, representing the government of the United
States, the following named persons: Hon. Ray Lyman Wilbur, Sec-

62 MONDAY, JANUARY 12, 1931.

retary of the Interior, his assistant, Mr. Eley, Assistant Attorney-Gen-
eral Richardson, Solicitor for the Department Finney, and Director of
Parks Albright. Assisting your committee in the representation of
the City were Senators Hiram W. Johnson and Samuel M. Shortridge,
Representatives Richard J. Welch and Harry L.. Englebright. Con-
gresswoman Florence M. Kahn was not in the City of Washington and,
therefore, was not present at the hearing. Representative Louis C.
Cramton of Michigan was also in attendance.

At the outset of the hearing it was evident from the remarks of
the Secretary that the matter of the distribution of power, and not
the construction of roads, was uppermost in his mind, and that while
he had no desire to embarrass the City in preventing its obtaining
revenue from its power plant, he felt that our procedure was a viola-
tion of the provisions of the Raker Act, and as it had been called
to his attention by a member of the Congress, it was incumbent upon
him to take some action regarding it. The hearing before the Secre-
tary occupied the greater part of December 4th, and on the two suc-
ceeding days your committee conferred with Horace M. Albright,
Director of National Parks, relative to the City's obligation to con-
struct roads within the Yosemite National Park. The argument made
to the Secretary by the committee, and the tentative agreement as to
the construction of roads and trails within the Yosemite National Park,
was filed with the Secretary at the conclusion of the hearings, and as
it practically constitutes the tentative program for the distribution of
power and the construction of roads and trails, it is hereto attached
and made a part of this report, marked "Exhibit A."

Upon receiving the argument and the tentative agreement as to the
construction of ^oads and trails. Secretary Wilbur transmitted to the
City Attorney the following communication, which was practically an
acceptance of the City's offer as to the construction of roads and trails.
The letter is as follows:

THE SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR
WASHINGTON

December 8, 1930.
John J. O'Toole, Esq., City Attorney, San Francisco, California:

My dear Mr. O'Toole: I have received with letter of transmittal
dated December 8, 1930, signed by Senators Hiram W. Johnson and
Samuel M. Shortridge and Representative Richard J. Welch and Harry
L. Englebright, argument presented by the committee representing the
City and County of San Francisco at conference in this Department
on December 4, 1930, in regard to the existing arrangements for the
distribution of power from the Hetch Hetchy project in Yosemite
National Park, together with tentative agreement reached in confer-
ence of said committee with the Director of the National Park Service
on December 5 and 6, 1930, relative to the City's obligations as to the
construction of roads and trails in the park under the Raker Act, said
agreement being subject to final approval by the Board of Supervisors
of San Francisco.

I have carefully considered the proposal of the City relative to a
fulfillment of its road and trail construction obligations under the
Raker Act and have to advise that the program submitted, if approved
by the Board of Supervisors, will fully satisfy the demands of this
Department as to such construction as provided for under said Act.

I note that your communication advises the Department of the City'g
three-year program for compliance with the provisions of the Raker Act
respecting power distribution, which will be followed with interest.

The successive steps outlined seem to be in the right direction.
Kindly keep me advised of the various steps to carry out the provi-
sions of the Raker Act as they are taken.

Sincerely yours,

RAY LYMAN WILBUR.

MONDAY. JANUARY 12. 19:U. 63

Your committee, in dealing with Director of National I'arks Al-
bright, endeavored to hold the road and trail program down to the
minimum amount. The Director was insistent that the City should
build roads and trails to the extent and cost of $1,680,000, the expendi-
ture to be made at the rate of approximately $400,000 per year. Your
committee succeeded in reducing the amount of this expenditure to
$1,500,000, the same to be expended at the rate of $250,000 per year,
the last $500,000 of the expenditure to be applied to the Crane Flat
road should the Secretary demand the construction of the same by the
City. The committee insisted that this road be made contingent upon
the request of the Secretary for two reasons: first, there was a possi-
bility that it might not have to be constructed, and, second, if it was
constructed, there was a possibility of the government itself defraying
the cost thereof.

The Secretary agreed to accept the present road from O'Shaughnessy
Dam to Lake Eleanor as a compliance with the provisions of the Raker
Act regarding that road. Your committee believes that this is ex-
tremely beneficial to the City, not only from a financial standpoint,
but also from a health standpoint, for the reason that both City
Engineer O'Shaughnessy and Director of Parks Albright were of the
opinion that the road to Lake Eleanor would cost at least $1,500,000
and its construction would throw open a large part of our watershed
to the general public. The Director of Parks stated that in all proba-
bility in the near future the National Park authorities would declare
Lake Eleanor and the surrounding watershed a "wilderness area,"
which would mean that the area w-ould be practically closed to auto-
mobile travel and open only to those traveling on foot or on horse-
back.

In view of the foregoing, your committee recommends as follows:

(a) That an agreement be entered into between the City and the
Secretary of the Interior, carrying out the road program as outlined
in the tentative offer submitted to the Secretary.

(b) That the City convey to the government of the United States
such property as it now owns in the Yosemite National Park and in
Sections 1 and 12, Township 1 South, Range — East, as are not needed
in connection with its water project or for other municipal purposes.

(c) That the Board of Freeholders be requested to include in the
new Charter which they are to prepare, provision for a non-partisan,
non-political Utility Commission, which will have charge of the opera-
tion, construction and maintenance of all public utilities owned by
the City.

(d) That upon the completion of the water supply of the Hetch
Hetchy project and the bringing it in to San Francisco, that the City
again submit to the people the matter of the acquisition of a distribu-
tion system for the hydro-electric power.

Enclosed herewith is a resolution authorizing the City to enter into
an agreement with the Secretary of the Interior relative to roads and
trails, and also one directing the attention of the Board of Freeholders
as to the necessity of making provision in the new Charter for a
Public Utilities Commission, and also one calling upon the City En-
gineer to forthwith advise the Board of Supervisors as to the amount
and description of real property owned by the City in the Yosemite
National Park and in Stanislaus National Forest which is not needed
in connection with our water project or for other municipal purposes.

EXHIBIT "A".

In the Matter of the Conference Between the Secretary of the Depart-
ment of the Interior of the United States and Representatives of the
City and County of San Francisco as to Certain Obligations of the
City Under the Raker Act, Which Conference Was Held in the
Office of the Secretary on December 4th, 1930.

Argument Presented by Committee.

SAN FRANCISCO'S DEVELOPMENT OF THE HETCH HETCHY.

San Francisco obtained its right to develop its appropriated waters
in the Yosemite National Park, and in the Stanislaus National Forest,
under the terms of the Act of Congress of December 19, 1913, commonly
known as the "Raker Act". The work thus far performed has been
financed by several bond issues voted by the people of San Francisco,
and which are direct obligations of the City. The dates of the bond
Issues and the respective amounts thereof are as follows:

January 1, 1909 $ 600,000.00 iV2%

July 1, 1910 45,000,000.00 41/2%

January 1, 1925 10,000,000.00 5%

July 1, 1928 24,000,000.00 41/2%

Total $79,600,000.00

All of the above-mentioned bonds have been sold with the exception
of $12,000,000 of the 1928 issue, which are being held and disposed of
by the City as funds are needed for construction purposes.

On the outstanding bonds the City had, as of the date of November
1, 1930, paid the sum of $20,110,305 in interest, the latter burden was
lessened to the extent of approximately $9,000,000 by the receipt of in-
come from hydro-electric power. But even with deduction, San Fran-
cisco will have an investment of more than $80,000,000 in its mountain
water supply, when the same is completed, which sum is exclusive of
additional interest accruing during the three years necessary to com-
plete the work, and also exclusive of any additional bonds which may
have to be voted to meet the increased cost of construction which has
arisen on the Coast division of the project.

In addition to the sum mentioned, the City has expended approxi-
mately $41,000,000 in the acquisition of the distributing system, res-
ervoirs and water rights of the Spring Valley Water Company, and is
now operating these properties as a municipally owned water system.
So when the Hetch Hetchy project is completed, San Francisco will
have invested in its municipal water supply and distributing system
in excess of $120,000,000.

The construction work done to date upon the Hetch Hetchy system
may be briefly summarized as follows:

1. O'Shaughnessy Dam — A concrete structure, 345 feet in height, cost-
ing $7,000,000 which impounds sixty-eight billion gallons of water.

2. Lake Eleanor Dam — Also a concrete structure 70 feet high and
1200 feet long, the cost of which was over $300,000.

3. Early Intake Dam — Arched concrete structure, 80 feet high, and
which acts as a diversion dam to turn Hetch Hetchy and Lake Eleanor
water into main tunnel aqueduct.

4. Priests Dam — Earth and rock, 145 feet high, with concrete core.
Regulates water flow into Moccasin Creek Power House, and provides
storage to feed power house.

5. Moccasin Dam — Earth with rock fill, 75 feet high. Deflects water
into foothill division tunnel aqueduct after same passes through power
house.

MONDAY. JAISrUARY 12. 19?.!. 65

6. Tunnel aqueduct — from Early Intake to Priests Dam. Driven mostly
through solid granite, concrete lined, and has a capacity of 470 million
gallons daily. Length 19 miles, gravity flow.

7. Penstock, pipe and tunnel from Priests Dam to Moccasin Power
House. 13 feet in diameter and is concrete lined, 2 miles long.

8. Moccasin Power House — Steel frame concrete building, 225 feet
long, 98 feet wide, develops 100,000 horse power, releasing water into
Moccasin Reservoir. In operation since September, 1925.

&. Moccasin Creek — Transmission line, 97 miles long on City's right
of way. Voltage, 115,000.

10. Foothill Tunnel — Same capacity as tunnel from Early Intake,
gravity flow, 16 miles long.

in Sau Mateo County, 22 miles long, including Pulgas tunnel. Conveys
water across San Francisco Bay, at Western Terminus of Hetch
Hetchy project to storage lakes acquired from Spring Valley Water
Company.

12. Early Intake Power House — At Early Intake Lake a power house

the Hetch Hetchy work. Also a transmission line of 22,000 volts ca-
pacity to provide power for construction purposes — now being operated
to supplement Moccasin Creek output.

13. Coast Range Tunnel — Now in course of construction, 1400 men
employed. 16.6 miles completed, 12 miles to be completed. To be con-
crete lined and to be completed in December, 1933, to be fed by pipe line
across San Joaquin Valley from Oakdale Portal of Foothill Division.

14. San Joaquin Pipe Line — 47 miles long. Work to be started, same
will be completed at same time as Coast Range Tunnel mentioned in
Sub. 13. Reason for delay — to save interest on cost as same cannot be
of service until tunnel is completed.

Work on all portions of project to be completed December, 1933.

Hydro-Electric Portion of Project.

When the Raker Act was passed, its purpose was to give San Fran-
cisco a water supply. The production of electricity was really looked
upon as. and is, a by-product. The Act placed obligations upon the City
as to its development of power, and wisely so, for no matter who re-
ceives the benefit of the disposition of the power, it is a distinct ad-
vantage to the people of the State. The City has developed power far
in excess of the mandates of the Act. The City is mindful of the pro-
visions of Section 6 of the Act, as to selling power for resale. Since
the completion of its Moccasin power plant in September, 1925, the
City has distributed the output of the plant to the inhabitants of San
Francisco, through the agency of the system of the Pacific Gas and
Electric Company under a contract subject to termination by either
party on twenty-four hours' notice, and which contract will hereinafter
be referred to as "The Agency Contract." It will be admitted that the
contract has never received the approval of the Department of the
Interior as being in accord with Section 6 of the Act. and the City Is
not asking for any determination of this point at this time. This con-
tract has been productive of revenue to the City of something less than
$2,000,000 a year, the exact amount being dependent upon the amount
of water which can be impounded during the year. Every cent of this
revenue has been expended in paying interest upon the bonds voted by
San Francisco for the water project. The revenue cannot, under the ex-
press mandate of the Charter, be used for any other purpose, until
the bonds are finally wiped out, save that whenever there might be an
amount of revenue in excess of the amount necessary for interest, it
must be applied to the redemption of the principal. To deprive San
Francisco of this revenue would have caused, and will cause, an in-

crease in her tax rate of at least twenty-seven cents per year upon each
one hundred dollars of her taxable property, a burden which she can
ill afford to shoulder in view of her many other obligations at this par-
ticular time.

Distribution Directly by the City of Hetch Hetchy
Hydro-Electric Power.

It will be admitted that the so-called Agency Contract was a tem-
porary expedient to prevent a serious loss to San Francisco, a loss
which would have benefited no one, but possibly harmed many by
reason of the serious shortage of electric power in California at the
time the contract was entered into. The contract has been effective
since September, 1925, and it was tacitly permitted by the Department
to aid the City in carrying out the main purpose of the Hetch Hetchy
grant, i. e., a water supply for San Francisco. This purpose has not
been accomplished, notwithstanding every effort and the expenditure
of millions by the City. The vastness of the project and not any pro-
crastination by those charged with doing the work is responsible for
the delay. If a tacit permission (and we use the term not intending to
signify approval) by the Department was proper in 1925, the same
cogent reasons still exist why that permission should not now be
revoked, and why it should not be continued until our water project
is fully developed.

The Past and the Future.

San Francisco has made every effort to live up to the letter as well
as the spirit of the Raker Act. Before its power plant was completed,
proceedings were instituted to acquire the local distributing systems
of the companies supplying the City with electric energy. The pro-
ceedings were completed at the cost of some $400,000 to the City, and
within the shortest period of time that their magnitude would permit.
That the people of San Francisco did not place their final stamp of
approval upon the bonds necessary to acquire the properties is, we
admit, unfortunate, but the failure should not be taken, as an indica-
tion of the action of the people in the future. There were many reasons
which entered into their refusal. A few should be adverted to: a. The
people felt that in the Hetch Hetchy project they were embarking
upon a plan that would provide San Francisco with a water supply.
Power they looked upon as a by-product or incident to the more
necessary main project. Therefore they felt that they should not obli-
gate themselves to a large indebtedness (over sixty millions) until
the main project was completed, b. Times were not propitious either
for the issuance or sale of the obligations proposed. A financial strin-
gency made municipalities as well as individuals wary as to the in-
crease of their financial burdens, c. The acquisition of the properties of
the local system meant the management of an electric production and
distribution system second in size to none in the West. San Francisco
was not equipped with the political machinery, with a non-partisan,
non-political Commission to undertake the management of such a proj-
ect, d. Revenue was not being produced by the water project and the
people were fearful of increasing their civic financial burdens, which
might incidentally arise by the embarking on the electric project.

MONDAY. JANUARY 12. 1931. 67

Inspire the confidence of the people In the continuation and extension
of existing utilities, and the embarking upon new ones. Should the
proposed Charter, which must be adopted or rejected as a whole, not
receive the requisite approval of the people during the months of
March and April during the coming year, a separate amendment pro-
viding for the Utility Commission mentioned will be presented to the
people at the earliest subsequent opportunity, which will be in Novem-
ber, 1932.

This Committee will recommend to the Legislative Department of
San Francisco a program which will insure the adoption of legisla-
tion looking to the non-partisan Commission; also the prompt com-
pletion of the Hetch Hetchy water project at the earliest possible
moment, and a plan which will educate the people as to the necessity
of providing a direct method of distribution of the hydro-electric power
developed at the Moccasin plant, which plan will provide for the sub-
mission to the people within a reasonable time after the completion
of the water project, a bond issue for the direct distribution of our
power.

The committee from San Francisco has welcomed the opportunity
of conferring directly with the Director of National Parks, on De-
cember 5th and 6th, relative to the City's obligation as to roads and
trails under the Raker Act. After two conferences with that ofllcial the
City offers the following program of fulfillment of its obligations as to
roads and trails under the Raker Act, which program is the result of
the conference with the Director, and which we believe meets with
his approval.

The program Is as follows:

(a) That the City will complete the construction of a trail on the
north side of the Hetch Hetchy reservoir site and to the Tiltill Valley
and to Lake Vernon, according to the plans heretofore presented to and
approved by the Secretary of the Interior, said work to be performed
by the City, to be completed within the calendar year, 1931, and to be
done to the satisfaction of said Secretary.

(b) That the City will place upon the existing road from Mather
(formerly Hog Ranch) to the Hetch Hetchy reservoir, a bituminous
or asphaltlc wearing surface, making such curvature changes as may
be necessary for the safety of said road, and will also construct, where
necessary in the opinion of the Secretary, guard walls of stone. The
approximate cost of said work to be two hundred thousand dollars,
the same to be performed by the City to the satisfaction of the Secre-
tary, and to be completed within the calendar year 1931.

(c) That for the purpose of complying with its obligations to con-
struct a road along the southerly slope of Smith's Peak from Mather
(formerly Hog Ranch) past Harden Lake to a junction with the old
Tioga Road, the City will, during the month of July, 1932, and there-
after during the month of July, 1933, and during the month of July,
1934, pay to the United States of America, through the Department of
the Interior, the sum of $250,000 during each of said months, which
said sums will be supplied and used by the Department of the Interior
for the purpose of constructing the aforesaid road, which said road
will have an average surface width of 16 feet, and to be constructed In
accordance with plans approved by the Secretary of the Interior. That
the payment of the said sum of seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars
by the City will be considered as the fulfillment of the City's obliga-
tions under the Raker Act to construct said last mentioned road.

(d) That in addition to the construction of the aforesaid roads and
trails and the payment of the said sum of $750,000 as provided In the
last paragraph, the City will, upon the demand of the Secretary of the
Interior, said demand to be made upon the City between the 1st day of
January and the 1st day of April, 1934, pay to the United States,

68 MONDAY, JANUARY 12, 1931.

through the Department of the Interior, the further sum of $500,000,
which said sum shall be used for the construction of a road of similar
character to that mentioned in paragraph (c) hereof, and which said
road shall connect with the said road mentioned in said paragraph (c)
and shell lead from the Mather-Harden-Lake road to Crane Flat. The
said sum of $500,000 shall be payable in two equal installments of
$250,000 each, one payable on July 15th, 1935, and the other payable
on July 15th, 1936. That it is understood that the last mentioned road
is not specifically mentioned in the Raker Act and that in consideration
of the payment of said sum of $500,000 as herein provided, the Secre-
tary of the Interior will accept the road which has been heretofore con-
structed by the City from Hetch Hetchy reservoir site to Lake Eleanor
via McGill Meadow, as and for the road or trail provided in the Raker
Act to be so constructed by the City, and as a compliance by the City
with the provisions of said Act requiring the construction of said road,
r Provided that the Secretary may use the payment which will become
due in the year 1934, for the road mentioned in paragraph (c) hereof,
for the construction of the road mentioned in paragraph (d) hereof,
provided that the total or annual obligation of the City for said roads
shall not be increased.

That upon the City constructing and completing the roads and trails
mentioned in paragraphs (a) and (b) hereof, and paying to the United
States the amounts provided to be paid in paragraphs (c) and (d)
hereof, the City will be considered to have complied with all of the
provisions of said Raker Act as to the construction of roads and trails,
and shall be considered to have performed its obligations in regard
thereto and the same shall be considered as a compliance with said

obligations by the City.
<

Provided that nothing herein contained shall change or modify tu^
present obligations of the City as to the maintenance or upkeep of roads
under said Raker Act.

" That the City will, upon the request of the Secretary of the Depart-
ment of the Interior, convey to the United States all property owned
by it in the Yosemite National Park or in Sections 1 and 12, Township
1 South, Range — East, M. D. B. & M., which said sections have been
authorized to be added to said park by Act of May 9, 1930, known as
Public Act 187, Seventy-first Congress, provided that the same are not
needed or used in connection with the Hetch Hetchy project or for
other purposes in connection with the government of San Francisco or
its institutions, due regard being had for the provisions of the Raker
Act which authorizes the use by the City, with the approval of the
Secretary, of additional lands in said park when the same are needed
In connection with said Hetch Hetchy project.

That said program as to roads and trails as herein contained, as
well as to the conveyance of lands, is subject to the approval of the
Board of Supervisors of San Francisco, and upon approval thereof by
said Board, legislation will be adopted authorizing an agreement be-
tween the City and the Department for the carrying out of said
program.

And in closing we most respectfully urge that to prevent, at this time,
the continuation of the present method employed by the City in the
distribution of its hydro-electric power, will entail a hardship upon
San Francisco and her people, and will benefit no one, but on the other
hand, will cause an economic waste which will be indirectly reflected
upon the State itself. The present method is the only one available to
the City for the time being. When the main project under the grant is
accomplished, undoubtedly other methods will be available, which
will not be subject to objection under the provisions of Section 6 of the
Act, and until that time we feel that the Department should, in the
exercise of the sound discretion as to construction of the Act, and with-
out finally committing itself as to any particular construction of Sec-

Resolution Memorializing Marshal Joffre.
Supervisor Canepa presented:
Resolution No. 33762 (New Series), as follows:

Whereas, life's fitful campaign has been closed by and for the hero
of the Marne, a marshal of France, Joseph Jacques Joffre, who has
handed full and complete reports to the Great Commander of the
Universe; and

Whereas, the late idolized soldier of France had lived up to the
very finest martial traditions of the French nation, and manifested
unswerving loyalty to the tricolor, exemplary courage in the face of
the awful odds of battle, and succeeded beyond highest expectations
through wonderful strategic ability; and

Whereas, Marshal Joffre of France, though reared amidst the arduous
life of barrack and camp, maintained a noble, human trait, to be
forever endeared to the heart of the French nation by the beautiful
paternal appellation attached to his name; now, therefore, be it

Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors of the City and County
of San Francisco does hereby give public tribute to the memory of
a man who has lived up to the greatest and grandest traditions of
the French nation; and be it

Further Resolved, That the said Board of Supervisors deeply regrets
the death of the marshal of France and offers to the people of the
French nation, as well as to the widow and daughter of the hero of
the Marne, sympathy and condolence at the loss sustained; and be it

Further Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be spread on the
minutes of this meeting, that another copy be sent to the President
of the French Republic through the Consul-General at San Francisco,
and that a copy be engrossed and forwarded to the widow of the late
Marshal Joffre.

108 MONDAY, JANUARY 12, 1931.

Congress to Be Memorialized in re Adjusted Compensation Cer-
tificates Issued as Bonus to Service Men.

Supervisor Canepa presented:

Resolution No. (New Series), as follows:

Whereas, there are now pending in the Congress of the United
States several bills which propose in various ways the immediate pay-
ment of the Adjusted Compensation Certificates issued as a bonus to
service men after the World War; and

Whereas, the economic situation throughout the country would be
materially benefited by placing in circulation the substantial sum of
money necessary for the redemption of these certificates; and

Whereas, it seems to be the consensus of opinion among veterans
that an immediate dicharge of this obligation would be preferred
by them, inasmuch as it would tend in no small measure to alleviate
some of the financial pressure so acutely felt throughout the Nation;
now, therefore, be it

Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors of the City and County of
San Francisco does hereby memorialize Congress, and does urge that
a measure be adopted whereby those veterans who deem it prudent and
expedient may avail themselves of the opportunity of procuring im-
mediate payment of this bonus; and be it

Further Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be forwarded to
all of California's representatives in the United States Congress, as
well as to President Hoover and Vice-President Curtis.

Report of City Engineer on Cave-in in East Mitchell Tunnel.

The following was read by the Clerk:

January 12, 1931.

Honorable Angelo J. Rossi, Mayor, San Francisco.

Dear Mr. Mayor: I am pleased to report to you on the rescue of
the twenty men who have been entombed for about thirty hours
during the period of the cave-in in the East Mitchell tunnel.

I was in this particular tunnel on November 25, just before my trip
East, and scrutinized it carefully. I am satisfied that the engineers
are taking every precaution possible to prosecute this work with the
greatest safety.

On last Saturday I visited the work, accompanied by Supervisor
Colman, and was on the ground and down in the excavation between
2 and 3:30 p. m. Only 4 feet of the small temporary drift, made on
the north side of the tunnel, remained to be excavated at that time

MONDAY, JANUARY 12, IfCU. 109

and the men were all released toward 11 o'clock that evening. Food
and water was ptissed in to them in the meantime throngh the 4-inch
pipe, so that the men were all physically fit and all back to work
again today.

The men are working in 14 separate headings, driving those 28.6
miles of tunnels, of which 17 miles are completed, and some of the
heaviest ground that can be encountered is met in this excavation.
All precautions possible have been taken to expedite the work, but
primarily it is kept in mind that the safety of the men comes first.
I have to state that the officials of the State Accident Commission
and the United States Bureau of Mines are cooperating with us in
every way to make the work safe. The fact that no lives have been
lost since last July bears testimony of the great care which is being
exercised in conducting those operations.

This accident retards the work of one heading not over two days,
the time it will take to clean out this fallen mass.

Very truly yours,

M. M. O'SHAUGNESSY, City Engineer.

siderable talk about other slides not reported, also complaints that
one of the newspaper reporters was refused use of the 'phone for
sending out new^s of the recent disaster. He asked for an oflScial
investigation.

SPECIAL ORDER— 2:30 P. M.

Report of Washington Conference Committee on Hetch Hetchy
Roads, Trails and Sale of Power.

The following matter was taken up:

January 19, 1931.
To the Honorable Board of Supervisors.

The committee appointed by your honorable Board to confer with
the Secretary of the Interior relative to the obligations of the City
and County of San Francisco under the Raker Act, which committee
was composed of Supervisors Jesse C. Colman, J. Emmet Hayden and
James B. McSheehy, City Engineer M. M. O'Shaughnessy and City
Attorney John J. O'Toole, did, pursuant to the directions of your
Board, proceed to Washington, and on the 4th day of December, i930,
had a conference with Hon. Ray Lyman Wilbur, Secretary of the
Interior, as to the City's obligations under the Raker Act in so far as
the distribution of hydro-electric power and the construction of roads
in the Yosemite National Park are concerned.

The conference took place at the office of the Secretary, and there
were present thereat, representing the government of the United
States, the following named persons: Hon. Ray Lyman Wilbur, Sec-
retary of the Interior, his assistant, Mr. Eley, Assistant Attorney-Gen-
eral Richardson, Solicitor for the Department Finney, and Director of
Parks Albright. Assisting your committee in the representation of
the City were Senators Hiram W. Johnson and Samuel M. Shortridge,
Representatives Richard J. Welch and Harry L. Englebright. Con-
gresswoman Florence M. Kahn was not in the City of Washington and,
therefore, was not present at the hearing. Representative Louis C.
Cramton of Michigan was also in attendance.

At the outset of the hearing it was evident from the remarks of
the Secretary that the matter of the distribution of power, and not
the construction of roads, was uppermost in his mind, and that while
he had no desire to embarrass the City in preventing its obtaining
revenue from its power plant, he felt that our procedure was a viola-
tion of the provisions of the Raker Act, and as it had been called
to his attention by a member of the Congress, it was incumbent upon
him to take some action regarding It. The hearing before the Secre-
tary occupied the greater part of December 4th, and on the two suc-
ceeding days your committee conferred with Horace M. Albright,
Director of National Parks, relative to the City's obligation to con-
struct roads within the Yosemite National Park. The argument made
to the Secretary by the committee, and the tentative agreement as to
the construction of roads and trails within the Yosemite National Park,
was filed with the Secretary at the conclusion of the hearings, and as
It practically constitutes the tentative program for the distribution of
power and the construction of roads and trails, it is hereto attached
and made a part of this report, marked "Exhibit A."

Upon receiving the argument and the tentative agreement as to the
construction of "oads and trails. Secretary Wilbur transmitted to the
City Attorney the following communication, which was practically an
acceptance of the City's offer as to the construction of roads and trails.
The letter is as follows:

118 MONDAY, JANUARY 19, 1931.

THE SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR
WASHINGTON

December 8, 1930.
John J. O'Toole, Esq., City Attorney, San Francisco, California:

I have carefully considered the proposal of the City relative to a
fulfillment of its road and trail construction obligations under the
Raker Act and have to advise that the program submitted, if approved
by the Boai'd of Supervisors, will fully satisfy the demands of this
Department as to such construction as provided for under said Act.

I note that your communication advises the Department of the City's
three-year program for compliance with the provisions of the Raker Act
respecting power distribution, which will be followed with interest.

The successive steps outlined seem to be in the right direction.
Kindly keep me advised of the various steps to carry out the provi-
sions of the Raker Act as they are taken.

Sincerely yours,

RAY LYMAN WILBUH.

Your committee, in dealing with Director of National Parks Al-
bright, endeavored to hold the road and trail program down to the
minimum amount. The Director was insistent that the City should
build roads and trails to the extent and cost of $1,680,000, the expendi-
ture to be made at the rate of approximately $400,000 per year. Your
committee succeeded in reducing the amount of this expenditure to
$1,500,000, the same to be expended at the rate of $250,000 per year,
the last $500,000 of the expenditure to be applied to the Crane Flat
road should the Secretary demand the construction of the same by the
City. The committee insisted that this road be made contingent upon
the request of the Secretary for two reasons: first, there was a possi-
bility that it might not have to be constructed, and, second, if it was
constructed, there was a possibility of the government itself defraying
the cost thereof.

The Secretary agreed to accept the present road from O'Shaughnessy
Dam to Lake Eleanor as a compliance with the provisions of the Raker
Act regarding that road. Your committee believes that this is ex-
tremely beneficial to the City, not only from a financial standpoint,
but also from a health standpoint, for the reason that both City
Engineer O'Shaughnessy and Director of Parks Albright were of the
opinion that the road to Lake Eleanor would cost at least $1,500,000
and its construction would throw open a large part of our watershed
to the general public. The Director of Parks stated that in all proba-
bility in the near future the National Park authorities would declare
Lake Eleanor and the surrounding watershed a "wilderness area,"
which would mean that the area would be practically closed to auto-
mobile travel and open only to those traveling on foot or on horse-
back.

In view of the foregoing, your committee recommends as follows:

(a) That an agreement be entered into between the City and the

MONDAY. JANUARY 19, 1931. 119

Secretary of the Interior, carrying out the road program as outlined
In the tentative offer submitted to the Secretary.

(b) That the City convey to the government of the United States
such property as it now owns in the Yosemite National Park and in
Sections 1 and 12, Township 1 South, Range — East, as are not needed
In connection with its water project or for other municipal purposes.

(d) That upon the completion of the water supply of the Hetch
Hetchy project and the bringing it in to San Francisco, tliat the City
again submit to the people the matter of the acquisition of a distribu-
tion system for the hydro-electric power.

EXHIBIT "A".

In the Matter of the Conference Between the Secretary of the Depart-
ment of the Interior of the United States and Representatives of the
City and Coimty of San Francisco as to Certain Obligations of the
City Under the Raker Act, Which Conference Was Held in the
Office of the Secretary on December 4th, 1930.

Argument Presented by Committee.

SAN FRANCISCO'S DEVELOPMENT OF THE HETCH HETCHY.

San Francisco obtained its right to develop Its appropriated waters
In the Yosemite National Park, and in the Stanislaus National Forest,
under the terms of the Act of Congress of December 19, 1913, commonly
known as the "Raker Act". The work thus far performed has been
financed by several bond issues voted by the people of San F^-ancisco,
and which are direct obligations of the City. The dates of the bond
Issues and the respective amounts thereof are as follows:

January 1, 1909 $ 600,000.00 i^%

July 1, 1910 45,000,000.00 4%%

January 1, 1925 10,000.000.00 5%

July 1, 1928 24,000,000.00 4^8%

Total $79,600,000.00

All of the above-mentioned bonds have been sold with the exception
of ?12,000,000 of the 1928 issue, which are being held and disposed of
by the City as funds are needed for construction purposes.

120 MONDAY, JANUARY 19, 1931.

On the outstanding bqpds the City had, as of the date of November
1, 1930, paid the sum of $20,110,305 in interest, the latter burden was
lessened to the extent of approximately $9,000,000 by the receipt of in-
come from hydro-electric power. But even with deduction, San Fran-
cisco will have an investment of more than $80,000,000 in its mountain
water supply, when the same is completed, which sum is exclusive of
additional interest accruing during the three years necessary to com-
plete the work, and also exclusive of any additional bonds which may
have to be voted to meet the increased cost of construction which has
arisen on the Coast division of the project.

The construction work done to date upon the Hetch Hetchy system
may be briefly summarized as follows:

1. O'Shaughnessy Dam — ^A concrete structure, 345 feet in height, cost-
ing $7,000,000 which impounds sixty-eight billion gallons of water.

2. Lake Eleanor Dam — Also a concrete structure 70 feet high and
1200 feet long, the cost of which was over $300,000.

3. Early Intake Dam — Arched concrete structure, 80 feet high, and
which acts as a diversion dam to turn Hetch Hetchy and Lake Eleanor
water into main tunnel aqueduct.

4. Priests Dam — Earth and rock, 145 feet high, with concrete core.
Regulates water flow into Moccasin Creek Power House, and provides
storage to feed power house.

5. Moccasin Dam — Earth with rock fill, 75 feet high. Deflects water
into foothill division tunnel aqueduct after same passes through power
house.

6. Tunnel aqueduct — from Early Intake to Priests Dam. Driven mostly
through solid granite, concrete lined, and has a capacity of 470 million
gallons daily. Length 19 miles, gravity flow.

7. Penstock, pipe and tunnel from Priests Dam to Moccasin Power
House, 13 feet in diameter and is concrete lined, 2 miles long.

8. Moccasin Power House — Steel frame concrete building, 225 feet
long, 98 feet wide, develops 100,000 horse power, releasing water into
Moccasin Reservoir. In operation since September, 1925.

9'. Moccasin Creek — Transmission line, 97 miles long on City's right
of way. Voltage, 115,000.

10. Foothill Tunnel — Same capacity as tunnel from Early Intake,
gravity flow, 16 miles long.

11. Pipe line from Irvington in Alameda County to Crystal Springs
in San Mateo County, 22 miles long, including Pulgas tunnel. Conveys
water across San Francisco Bay, at Western Terminus of Hetch
Hetchy project to storage lakes acquired from Spring Valley Water
Company.

13. Coast Range Tunnel — Now in course of construction, 1400 men
employed, 16.6 miles completed, 12 miles to be completed. To be con-
crete lined and to be completed in December, 1933, to be fed by pipe line
across San Joaquin Valley from Oakdale Portal of Foothill Division.

14. San Joaquin Pipe Line — 47 miles long. Work to be started, same
will be completed at same time as Coast Range Tunnel mentioned in

MONDAY, JANUARY 19. 1931. 121

Sub. 13. Reason for delay — to save interest on cost as same cannot be
of service until tunnel is completed.
Work on all portions of project to be completed December, 1933.

Hydro-Electric Portion of Project.

When the Raker Act was passed, its purpose was to give San Fran-
cisco a water supply. The production of electricity was really looked
upon as. and is, a by-product. The Act placed obligations upon the City
as to its development of power, and wisely so, for no matter who re-
ceives the benefit of the disposition of the power, it is a distinct ad-
vantage to the people of the State. The City has developed power far
In excess of the mandates of the Act. The City is mindful of the pro-
visions of Section 6 of the Act, as to selling power for resale. Since
the completion of its Moccasin power plant in September, 1925, the
City has distributed the output of the plant to the inhabitants of San
Francisco, through the agency of the system of the Pacific Gas and
Electric Company under a contract subject to termination by either
party on twenty-four hours' notice, and which contract will hereinafter
be referred to as "The Agency Contract." It will be admitted that the
contract has never received the approval of the Department of the
Interior as being in accord with Section 6 of the Act, and the City is
not asking for any determination of this point at this time. This con-
tract has been productive of revenue to the City of something less than
$2,000,000 a year, the exact amount being dependent upon the amount
of water which can be impounded during the year. Every cent of this
revenue has been expended in paying interest upon the bonds voted by
San Francisco for the water project. The revenue cannot, under the ex-
press mandate of the Charter, be used for any other purpose, until
the bonds are finally wiped out, save that whenever there might be an
amount of revenue in excess of the amount necessary for interest, it
must be applied to the redemption of the principal. To deprive San
Francisco of this revenue would have caused, and will cause, an in-
crease in her tax rate of at least twenty-seven cents per year upon each
one hundred dollars of her taxable property, a burden which she can
ill afford to shoulder in view of her many other obligations at this par-
ticular time.

Distribution Directly by the City of Hetch Hetchy
Hydro-Electric Power.
It will be admitted that the so-called Agency Contract was a tem-
porary expedient to prevent a serious loss to San Francisco, a loss
which would have benefited no one, but possibly harmed many by
reason of the serious shortage of electric power in California at the
time the contract was entered into. The contract has been effective
since September, 1925, and it was tacitly permitted by the Department
to aid the City in carrying out the main purpose of the Hetch Hetchy
grant, i. e., a water supply for San Francisco. This purpose has not
been accomplished, notwithstanding every effort and the expenditure
of millions by the City. The vastness of the project and not any pro-
crastination by those charged with doing the work is responsible for
the delay. If a tacit permission (and we use the term not intending to
signify approval) by the Department was proper in 1925. the same
cogent reasons still exist why that permission should not now be
revoked, and why it should not be continued until our water project
is fully developed.

The Past and the Future.

122 MONDAY, JANUARY 19, 1931.

within the shortest period of time that their magnitude would permit.
That the people of San Francisco did not place their final stamp of
approval upon the bonds necessary to acquire the properties is, we
admit, unfortunate, but the failure should not be taken, as an indica-
tion of the action of the people in the future. There were many reasons
which entered into their refusal. A few should be adverted to: a. The
people felt that in the Hetch Hetchy project they were embarking
upon a plan that would provide San Francisco with a water supply.
Power they looked upon as a by-product or incident to the more
necessary main project. Therefore they felt that they should not obli-
gate themselves to a large indebtedness (over sixty millions) until
the main project was completed, b. Times were not propitious either
for the issuance or sale of the obligations proposed. A financial strin-
gency made municipalities as well as individuals wary as to the in-
crease of their financial burdens, c. The acquisition of the properties of
the local system meant the management of an electric production and
distribution system second in size to none in the West. San Francisco
was not equipped with the political machinery, with a non-partisan,
non-political Commission to undertake the management of such a proj-
ect, d. Revenue was not being produced by the water project and the
people were fearful of increasing their civic financial burdens, which
might incidentally arise by the embarking on the electric project.

The future must and will obviate many of the so-called objections.
The water project will be completed and the main purpose of the
grant will be accomplished. It will be productive of income and will
carry the interest and redemption burden which now falls upon the
taxpayer. More prosperous times are undoubtedly ahead. San Francisco
is at this moment engaged in the drafting of a new charter which
will provide for a non-partisan, non-political Commission to take charge
of the operation of all its utilities. Such a commission will con-
duct and maintain all utilities on a strictly business basis and will
inspire the confidence of the people in the continuation and extension
of existing utilities, and the embarking upon new ones. Should the
proposed Charter, which must be adopted or rejected as a whole, not
receive the requisite approval of the people during the months of
March and April during the coming year, a separate amendment pro-
viding for the Utility Commission mentioned will be presented to the
people at the earliest subsequent opportunity, which will be in Novem-
ber, 1932.

The committee from San Francisco has welcomed the opportunity
of conferring directly with the Director of National Parks, on De-
cember 5th and 6th, relative to the City's obligation as to roads and
trails under the Raker Act. After two conferences with that official the
City offers the following program of fulfillment of its obligations as to
roads and trails under the Raker Act, which program is the result of
the conference with the Director, and which we believe meets with
his approval.

The program is as follows:

MONDAY, JANUARY 19, 1931. 123

by the City, to be completed within the calendar year, 1931, and to be

(b) That the City will place upon the existing road from Mather
(formerly Hog Ranch) to the Hetch Hetchy reservoir, a bituminous
or asphaltic wearing surface, making such curvature changes as may
be necessary for the safety of said road, and will also construct, where
necessary in the opinion of the Secretary, guard walls of stone. The
approximate cost of said work to be two hundred thousand dollars,
the same to be performed by the City to the satisfaction of the Secre-
tarj', and to be completed within the calendar year 1931.

(c) That for the purpose of complying with its obligations to con-
struct a road along the southerly slope of Smith's Peak from Mather

after during the month of July, 1933, and during the month of July,
1934, pay to the United States of America, through the Department of
the Interior, the sum of $250,000 during each of said months, which
said sums will be supplied and used by the Department of the Interior
for the purpose of constructing the aforesaid road, which said road
will have an average surface width of 16 feet, and to be constructed in
accordance with plans approved by the Secretary of the Interior. That
the payment of the said sum of seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars
by the City will be considered as the fulfillment of the City's obliga-
tions under the Raker Act to construct said last mentioned road.

(d) That in addition to the construction of the aforesaid roads and
trails and the payment of the said sum of $750,000 as provided in the
last paragraph, the City will, upon the demand of the Secretary of the
Interior, said demand to be made upon the City between the 1st day of
January and the 1st day of April, 1934, pay to the United States,
through the Department of the Interior, the further sum of $500,000,
which said sum shall be used for the construction of a road of similar
character to that mentioned in paragraph (c) hereof, and which said
road shall connect with the said road mentioned in said paragraph (c)
and shall lead from the Mather-Harden-Lake road to Crane Flat. The
said sum of $500,000 shall be payable in two equal installments of
$250,000 each, one payable on July 15th, 1935, and the other payable
on July 15th, 1936. That it is understood that the last mentioned road
is not specifically mentioned in the Raker Act and that in consideration
of the payment of said sum of $500,000 as herein provided, the Secre-
tary of the Interior will accept the road which has been heretofore con-
structed by the City from Hetch Hetchy reservoir site to Lake Eleanor
via McGill Meadow, as and for the road or trail provided in the Raker
Act to be so constructed by the City, and as a compliance by the City
with the provisions of said Act requiring the construction of said road.

Provided that the Secretary may use the payment which will become
due in the year 1934, for the road mentioned in paragraph (c) hereof,
for the construction of the road mentioned in paragraph (d) hereof,
provided that the total or annual obligation of the City for said roads
shall not be increased.

Provided that nothing herein contained shall change or modify the
present obligations of the City as to the maintenance or upkeep of roads
under said Raker Act.

Amendment to Widows' Pension Act.

Supervisor Canepa presented:

Resolution No. (New Series), as follows:

Whereas, the Widows' Pension Law provides State aid to widows
with dependent children only until the children reach the age of six-

Whereas, by State law, all children are required to attend school

children are required to attend school for a period of two years after
the time when State's contribution toward their support ceases; there-
fore, be it

Resolved, That this Board of Supervisors places itself on record as
favoring an amendment to the Widows' Pension Act, which amend-
ment shall provide that the time within which a widow with depen-
dent children shall receive State aid shall extend until such dependent
children shall have reached the age of eighteen years; and, be it

Supervisor Canepa presented:
Resolution No. (New Series), as follows:

by means of which the lives of all of the men were saved; therefore,
be it

Resolution on Death of Ray Martin.
Supervisor Havenner presented: '

Resolution No. 33S16 (New Series), as follows:

Whereas, Raymond J. Martin, for a number of years a faithful and
efficient employee in the Clerk's office of the Board of Supervisors,
has suddenly been called upon by his Maker to render his final j
accounting; and

Whereas, his cheerful personality and friendly spirit endeared him
to each and every member of this Board of Supervisors, to his office j
associates, and to the public with which he came in contact, and in '
his passing, the City he loved lost an earnest and conscientious
servant; now, therefore, be it

Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors of the City and County
of San Francisco does hereby express its sincere regret and deep grief
at the demise of Raymond J. Martin; and be it

Further Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be spread on the
minutes of this meeting and that this Board adjourn, when it does
adjourn today, out of respect to his memory.

Supervisor Havenner: Mr. Chairman, by reason of the extra-
ordinary business before the Board at the last meeting we did not
pay our tribute of respect to Mr. Martin, and it was my intention, if
possible, to have done so at that time.

I think all of the members of the Board will agree with me that
the duties which he assumed on the death of our previous bookkeeper
Mr Williams, a little over a year ago are about as important and
difficult as those involved in any post in the city service. Mr. Williams
who held the position for nearly half a century, was about the only
man in the City Hall, I think, who had every detail of the Citys
business at his finger tips. He handled the difficult task of making
up the annual budget and tax rate with remarkable ability. Mr.
Martin chosen by the Board to succeed him suddenly on the failing
of Mr 'williams' health, and up to the time his own health began to
fail I can testify filled the position with great ability and a great

MONDAY, JANUARY 19, 1931. 181

deal of sincerity aud fidelity. I am sure all of the members of the
Board will join witli me in sincei-e regret at his passing, and I desire
to move the Board when it does adjourn that we adjourn in respect
to the memory of Mr. Martin and that a copy of this resolution be
sent to his relatives.

Supervisor Hayden: As a member of the Finance Committee for a
year I had very intimate contact with Mr. Martin, and everything
Supervisor Havenner has said of him is absolutely true, and I realize
that from my experience with him in that office. A most conscien-
tious, painstaking loyal man. We of the Finance Committee, and you
as the Chairman of that Committee, Mr. Mayor, suddenly missed him
when he passed away so suddenly. We realize the responsibility of
that position, and realize the character and manner of man necessary
to fill it, and Mr. Martin certainly filled it with perfect satisfaction to
the prior Finance Committee, and the previous Finance Committee
and I indeed regret very much the passing of Mr. Martin.

The Chair: I will call for a rising vote on the resolution.

(Thereupon the resolution was, by unanimous standing vote of the
Board, adopted.)

Recommending Immediate Payment of Adjusted Compensation

On recommendation of Public Welfare Committee.

Resolution No. 33S58 (New Series), as follows:

Whereas, There are now pending in the Congress of the United
States several bills which propose in various ways the immediate

materially benefited by placing in circulation the substantial sum of
money necessary for the redemption of these certificates; and

them, inasmuch as it would tend in no small measure to alleviate
some of the financial pressure so acutely felt throughout the nation;

and expenditures of the borough departments for the ensuing year.
Such budget shall be prepared substantiallj^ in the same manner and
in such detail as required for the budget of the city and county so far
as the same may be applicable. Upon the adoption of the budget, it
shall take effect at the same time and shall be binding upon the bor-
ough in substantially the same degi-ee and in the same manner as the
city and county budget shall be effective and binding upon the city
and county.

The fiscal year of a borough shall be the same as for the city and
county.

Within the time limits fixed by law or by this Charter for the city
and county, the Council may levy a borough tax sufficient to raise the
amount estimated to be required in the annual budget as herein pro-
vided, less the amounts estimated to be received from fines, licenses,
and other sources of revenue; but such levy, exclusive of the tax to pay
the interest and maintain the sinking funds of the bonded indebtedness
of the borough, and exclusive of special assessment and district taxes
and of the library tax, shall not exceed the rate of one dollar on each
one hundred dollars of the assessed valuation of the taxable property
within the borough. Should the Council fail to fix the tax rate within
the time prescribed, then the borough tax rate of the previous year
shall constitute the rate of the current year. The Council, by ordinance,
may provide for a higher tax limit, but such tax limit shall not be
effective unless the ordinance fixing such tax limit shall first have
been approved by a majority of the borough voters voting thereon.

All borough taxes levied, together with interest thereon and any
percentage imposed for delinquency and the cost of collection, which
shall be those prescribed in this Charter for the city and county, shall
constitute liens on the property assessed, which taxes, interest, pen-
alties and charges shall be collected in the same manner as is provided
for the collection of city and county taxes, and which liens may be
foreclosed upon in the same manner as is provided for the foreclosure
of liens for city and county taxes.

All borough taxes shall be levied on the valuation of the taxable
property within the borough as shall be fixed by the Assessor of the
city and county for city and county tax purposes.

There shall be a borough fund for each borough. All borough taxes
shall be collected by the Tax Collector of the city and county and shall
be paid into the city and county treasury to the credit of the borough
concerned, together with all revenues of a borough received from fines,
licenses, and other sources of revenue, except as otherwise provided.
Money shall be payable from a borough fund only on warrants drawn
with the approval of the Council by such borough officer as the Council
may authorize, and when countersigned by the Borough Controller.

The manner and time within which deposits of borough moneys
received from taxes, licenses, fees, fines, penalties, forfeitures, and all
moneys accruing to a borough from any source shall be made, the
transfer and disposition of all surplus funds, and the manner in which
borough accounts shall be kept, shall be provided for by ordinance of
the Board of Supervisors, and shall be uniform for all boroughs.

approval and. sucli order or demand is a proper and legal order or
demand and the amount of said order or demand does not exceed the
amount of the unexpended and not otherwise appropriated moneys
remaining in the fund out of which said order is payable but where
there are not actual moneys on hand in said fund for the payment of
said order or demand, the Borough Controller must indorse thereon the
words, "not approved for want of funds," with the date of presenta-
tion and shall, in attestation thereof, affix his signature thereto; and
shall number such indorsement and shall register said order or demand
in the records of his office and shall thereupon deliver said order or
demand to the claimant, or his order. From that time, such order or
demand shall bear interest at the rate of six per cent per annum. Such
orders or demands, so registered as herein provided, shall be paid in
the order in which the same are registered.

All license taxes collected by the city and county within the limits
of any borough shall be credited to the borough fund of such borough
by the Treasurer of the city and county.

Borough Tax Subventions.

Section 21. The Board of Supervisors shall provide by ordinance for
a system of subventions from tax funds of the city and county to
boroughs which expend funds for the maintenance of streets, sewers,
libraries, parks, or playgrounds during any fiscal year; provided that
in no event shall the subvention to any borough either exceed the ag-
gregate amount which such borough shall appropriate out of borough
funds in said fiscal year for said purposes, or exceed the amount which
the city and county shall raise in said fiscal year by city and county
taxes levied and assessed for like purposes against taxable property
within such borough. Such system of subventions may be modified
from time to time by the Board of Supervisors by ordinance, but all
ordinances so providing shall apply generally to all boroughs.

Borough Bonded Indebtedness.

Section 22. A borough may incur an indebtedness, exceeding in any
year the income and revenue provided for such year, for the purposes
of paying the cost of any borough improvement or acquisition within
the power of the borough to make or acquire and may issue and sell
borough bonds for such purposes, provided said indebtedness and bonds
are authorized as herein provided by ordinance or resolution of the
borough pledging the faith and credit of the borough therefor. Such
ordinance or resolution shall be adopted and the proposition for the
issue and sale of such bonds shall be submitted to a vote of the voters
of the borough in substantially the same form and manner and accord-
ing to the same procedure as is provided in this Charter for the issue
and sale of bonds by the city and county, or in the manner and form
and according to the procedure provided in any general law of the
State of California in force at the time governing the issue and sale of
bonds by municipalities, so far as the same may be applicable.

No such debt shall be incurred and no such bonds shall be issued by
any borough without the assent of two-thirds of the voters thereof
voting thereon at an election to be held for that purpose, nor unless
before or at the time of incurring said debt or issuing said bonds
provision shall be made for the collection of an annual tax sufficient
to pay the interest on such debt or bonds as it falls due and provision
shall also be made to constitute a sinking fund for the payment of the
principal thereof on or before maturity.

In no case shall borough bonds be issued for a term which shall
exceed the estimated life of the work or improvement for the payment
of which they are issued as certified by the Council in the ordinance
calling the bond election, nor for a term to exceed forty years.

No bond shall be issued on the faith and credit of the borough which
will increase the bonded indebtedness thereof beyond five per cent of

(

244 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1031. [

the assessed valuation of the property within the borough subject to
direct taxation as shown by the last preceding assessed valuation.

The proceeds from the sale of borough bonds shall be applied exclu-
sively to the purposes and objects to which the voters of the borough
have assented, until such purposes and objects have been accomplished,
after which the surplus, if any, may be transferred to the bond interest
or redemption fund of the borough.

Borough bonds shall not constitute or be a debt or general obligation
of the city and county.

Borough Special Assessments. . ;

Section 23. In the exercise of its power to provide for the payment
of the cost of any public improvement in whole or in part by special
assessment levied against the property benefited thereby, a borough
acting through its Council may establish local improvement districts
and levy and collect special assessments and reassessments to pay the
costs and expenses of such improvements, which expenses shall be
made and assessments levied and collected in conformity with the pro-
cedure set forth in this Charter for the city and county, or with the
procedure set forth in any ordinance passed or adopted thereunder, or
with the procedure set forth in any one or more of the general laws of
the State of California in force at the time of the improvement relating
to the doing of public work or the making of public improvements in
municipalities or in counties, so far as the same may be applicable.
The Council may provide in accordance with the procedure set forth in
said Charter or said ordinance or general law or laws for the issuance,
sale, payment and redemption of interest bearing bonds to represent
or to be secured by such assessments or any reassessments remaining
unpaid after a certain period, either singly or in the aggregate, and
may provide that such assessments or reassessments may be paid in
installments and be collected in the same manner in which city and
county taxes are collected or otherwise, and for the sale of lands bur-
dened by such assessments or reassessments and for the purchase of
same on behalf of the borough in event of nonpayment, and may pro-
vide other or alternative methods for such collection by foreclosure or
otherwise. Such work or improvements are any permitted to be done
by boroughs under this Charter or by the city and county or by any
such procedure, ordinance or general law.

Nothing contained herein shall prevent the Board of Supervisors
from establishing similar local improvement districts where the same
shall cover territory in two or more boroughs or parts thereof, or cover
territory lying partly within and partly without a borough, or from
levying and collecting special assessments and reassessments to pay
the cost and expenses of such local public improvements.

Section 24. In the preparation of estimates, calling for bids, adver-
tising, and awarding of contracts for supplies, materials, labor, official
advertising, or for any public work, a borough shall be subject to the

Referred to Joint Committees on Industrial Development and Ju-
diciary.

Report of City Engineer on Supervisor Havenner's Motion for Plans,
Specifications and Estimates of Cost, San Joaquin Pipe Line.

The following was presented, read, and referred to the Public Utilities
Committee:

To the Honorable the Board of Public Works.

Gentlemen: Herewith I submit, for transmission to the Board of
Supervisors, "plans, specifications and estimates of cost for the con-
struction of an adequate pipe line across the San Joaquin Valley for
the purpose of conveying water across said Valley from the Oakdale
Portal to the Tesla Portal of the Hetch Hetchy Project," as required
by Resolution No. 33806 (New Series), adopted by the Board of Super-
visors January 19, 1931, and approved by the Mayor January 20, 1931.

Besides the construction of the San Joaquin Pipe Line, the comple-
tion of the Red Mountain Bar Siphon is included here, as this siphon
is necessary to complete the aqueduct between Moccasin Creek and
Oakdale Portal.

PLANS.

Attached hereto is a print of a drawing, file No. R-266, entitled,
"Hetch Hetchy Water Supply of the City and County of San Francisco,
Calif. Plans for San Joaquin Pipe Line, prepared in compliance with
Resolution No. 33806 (New Series) of the Board of Supervisors. M. M.
O'Shaughnessy, City Engineer, January, 1931.''

This drawing shows in plan and in profile both the San Joaquin
Pipe Line and the Red Mountain Bar Siphon.

Tlie drawing in fact covers the entire aqueduct line from Moccasin
Power Plant to Irvington Portal, thus showing the relation between the
pipe lines and the other portions of the Hetch Hetchy Aqueduct com-
pleted and under construction.

SPECIFICATIONS FOR SAN JOAQUIN PIPE LINE.

Capacity: The San Joaquin Pipe Line is to have a delivery capacity
of 60,000,000 gallons daily.

Length: The line will be 47.5 miles in length from Oakdale Portal
of the Foothill Tunnel to Tesla Portal of the Coast Range Tunnel.

Pressure Head: The pressure head in the pipe varies from 50 feet
to 540 feet (22 to 234 pounds per square inch), about 30 miles of pipe
being under a head of 500 feet (217 pounds) or more.

Alternative Types and Sizes of Pipe: In calling for bids, provision
will be made for bidders to submit figures on alternative types of pipe
line construction, with different sizes to correspond to the flow charac-
teristics of the various types, as follows:

Diameter
Type (Inches)

Riveted steel pipe 61

Lock-bar pipe 58

Welded pipe 58

Steel pipe with concrete lining 54

Reinforced concrete pipe 54

Any type not considered suitable for the entire line will be limited
to those sections for which it is considered suitable.

248 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1931.

Basis of Estimate: As the basis for tlie present estimate, it is as-
sumed tliat ttie line will be of lock-bar or welded construction, 58
inches in diameter, except for 50,000 feet C&Vo miles) at and near the
San Joaquin River crossing, where 61-inch riveted pipe may be neces-
sary. Thicknesses will vary from 5/16 inch to 9/16 inch. The length of
pipe of each diameter and thickness is shown in the cost estimate.

The diameters and the lengths of pipe of each thickness are subject
to some changes, which, however, will not affect the usefulness or
accuracy of this estimate for the purposes for which it is now required.

General Construction: The pipe in general will be dipped in an
asphalt bath and wrapped with paper, for protection against corrosion.
Where more severe conditions require further protection, the pipe will
be jacketed with concrete.

The pipe will be laid in trench, with a depth of cover averaging
three feet.

San Joaquin River Crossing: The pipe will cross the San Joaquin
River and the flood relief channel known as Elliott Cut in trench
beneath the channels. Pile foundations and special protection (by
concrete jacketing) against external pressure and corrosion will be
required.

Subdivision Into Sections: The pipe line will be divided into several
sections (probably six), the proposal form being- arranged to permit
any bidder to bid on constructing the entire line or on any number
of sections.

Time Allowance: A normal time allowance for this work would be
not less than 18 months nor more than two years. Tlie date of com-
pletion of the Coast Range Tunnel as now estimated, is December, I
1933. The contract or contracts for pipe line construction should be <
awarded about January 1, 1932, with a time allowance of 22 months,
or to November 1, 1933, thus allowing a margin of two months in case
tunnel construction actually progresses somewhat faster than now
anticipated.

In the estimate following, the itemized prices are based on an as-
sumed time allowance of at least 18 months.

To do the work in 12 months' contract time, increased cost will be
necessary, due to any or all of the following considerations: for in-
creased shop facilities, for subdividing the work among several con-
tractors (some of whom may be located at considerable distance from
San Francisco), for higher freight costs on pipe manufactured at dis-
tant shops, for less flexibility in programming the contractor's work
and greater effect of delay due to adverse weather conditions and other
causes beyond the contractor's control.

The excess cost for constructing this pipe line in one year's time is
estimated as a 10% addition to the cost of doing the work in a normal ^
time.

SPECIFICATIONS FOR RED MOUNTAIN BAR SIPHON '

This pipe line, to connect the ends of the constructed portion of the
siphon to the tunnel portals east and west of the Tuolumne River, will i
be 9 ft. 6 in. in diameter, of riveted steel construction, with thicknesses
from % in. to % in., and total length 1705 feet. The pipe will be sup- :
ported above ground on piers. j

The following incidental construction also is required: \

Reinforced concrete structures to connect pipe to tunnel portals; '
Spillway to discharge into the river any water brought through

the tunnel in excess of the quantity required for transmission to

San Francisco;

Control valve, air valves, manholes.

Eight months' contract time is a proper allowance.

and

Whereas, the year 1932 promises world-wide interest in the State of ;
California because of the fact that the Olympiad will be held in the ;
city of Los Angeles in this year, thereby bringing to California the
greatest number of people from the different parts of the world ever ;
assembled in one city; and

Whereas, it is also possible that the American Legion may hold its
national convention in Los Angeles in the year 1932, thereby intensify-
ing the interest naturally felt in spending a vacation in California by
many thousands of citizens of the United States; and

Whereas, California has recently elected an outstanding citizen of
experience, culture and ability, in the person of James Rolph, Jr., as
its chief executive, who will preside over the State for the next four
years; and

Whereas, the City of San Francisco will be called upon to entertain
and furnish interest for this vast assemblage; therefore, be it

Resolved, That the San Francisco Board of Supervisors undertake

bridge across the Golden Gate or the proposed bridge from San Fran-
cisco to Alameda County; and be it

Further Resolved, That a special committee of a suitable number of
Supervisors is hereby authorized to take cognizance of the foregoing
situation and study plans which will give the citizens of San Fran-
cisco an opportunity of properly preparing suitable reception and par-
ticipation in various forms of hospitality which will naturally grow
out of the presence of such an unusual number of visitors from other
parts of the world; and be it

Further Resolved, That the Mayor is hereby authorized to appoint
such a committee from the Board of Supervisors at his earliest dis-
cretion, in order that the matter may receive the attention which is
necessary to make such plans effective.

Opinion of City Attorney — Proposed Incineration Franchise Cannot
Be Tested Without Definite Action by Supervisors.

February 2, 19?.l.
Gentlemen: Your recent request for an opinion was received in
due course as follows:

Must the Board of Supervisors tal^e definite action by resolution of
acceptance before an injunction proceeding can be brought to restrain
the granting of a franchise ordinance to the San Francisco Disposal
Company, Inc.. for incineration of garbage, etc.?

OPINION.

It has been suggested that an application to the courts for declaratory
relief, to declare the rights and duties of all parties with respect to
this matter, might be commenced. However, an action for declaratory
relief would not be good, for the reason that at the present time there
is no actual controversy, within the meaning of Section 1060, Code
of Civil Procedure.

MONDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1931. 261

It has also been suggested that a petition for a writ of mandate might
be filed, and in that way raise the various points of law in connection
with this matter However, mandamus will not lie, for the reasons
hereinafter advanced with respect to applications for injunctions, nor
will an application for a writ of prohibition, for the same reasons.

It is a fundamental rule of equity that injunctions cannot be used
to control discretionary acts, and this is so although the powers vested
in municipal officers are quasi-judicial as well as administrative. (See
32 C. J. 242; 32 C. J. 260.)

In 32 C. J. 267 it is said: "Where the statute requires a contract
to be let to the lowest bidder, the letting of it to one not the lowest
bidder will be enjoined; but not * * * where ratification by the
municipality is required before the contract is made." (See Dibble v.
New Haven, 14 Atl. 210 [Conn.].)

In Garrity v. Halbert. 225 S. W. 196 (Texas), it was held that courts
will not enjoin the enactment of city ordinances, valid or invalid,
unless it is made clearly to appear that irreparable injury immediately
will result from the mere enactment of the ordinance without inter-
vention oi" attempt to do some act or exercise some privilege under it,
and equity will interfere by injunction only when it becomes necessary
to restrain some unlawful and injurious act authorized by ordinance.
(See 32 C. J. 263.)

In American Coal Mining Co. v. Special Coal and Food Commission,
286 Fed. .563 (Ind.), the court held: "You cannot make any proof as
to a hypothetical condition in the future." (See 32 C. .1. 245.)

In 14 Cal. Juris 202 the text-writer sets forth the following:
"Municipal Legislation. An injunction may not be granted in Cali-
fornia to prevent a legislative act by a municipal corporation within
the scope of its powers. Consequently, the decisions clearly enunciate
the principle that where power to act is delegated to a local governing
body, the wisdom and need for the exercise of power one way or
another are questions which rest primarily within the appropriate
jurisdiction of such body, and will not be decided in advance by the
court. It is the duty of that body alone to ascertain the facts and
thereafter to exercise a judgment and discretion as to the appropriate
action to be taken. The presumption is that it will do its duty, and
injunction will therefore not lie to control its action. The fact that
the threatened act may be in disregard of constitutional restraints does
not affect the question; it is legislative discretion which is exercised,
and that discretion, whether rightfully or wrongfully exercised, is not

i subject to interference by the judiciary."

j In Glide .'. Superior Court, 147 Cal. 21, at 24, we find the following
pertinent language: "In Alpers v. San Francisco, 32 Fed. 503, Mr.
Justice Field, discussing the same matter, says: 'The same exemption
from judicial interference applies to all legislative bodies, so far as
their legislative discretion extends. Municipal corporations are the

I instrumentalities of the State for the more convenient administration
of local affairs, and for that purpose are invested with certain legis-
lative power. Ill the exercise of that power, upon the subjects sub-
mitted to their jurisdiction, they are a.s much beyond judicial inter-
ference as the legislature of the State. The courts cannot in the one

' case forbid the passage of a law nor in the other the passage of a
resolution, order, or ordinance. If by either body, the Legislature or
the Board of Supervisors, an unconstitutional act be passed, its en-

■ forcement may be arrested. The parties seeking to execute the invalid
act can be reached by the courts, while the legislative body of the

. State, or of the municipality, in the exercise of its legislative discretion,

i is beyond their jurisdiction. The fact that in either case the legis-

' lative act threatened may be in disregard of constitutional restraints,
and impair the obligation of a contract, as alleged in this case, does not
affect the question. It is legisaltive discretion which is exercised, and
that discretion, whether rightfully or wrongfully exercised, is not
subject to interference by the judiciary.' Alpers v. San Francisco was
reviewed and affirmed by the Supreme Court of the United States in

262 MONDAY. FEBRUARY 2, 1931.

the recent oase of McChord v. Louisville, 183 U. S. 495. In consonanc^
with these utterances are the decisions of our own State in Fall
County of Sutter, 21 Gal. 237; McBride v. Newlin, 129 Cal. 36; Bart<
V. Supervisors, 135 Cal. 494. Finally, it may be added that this
principle, of which exception has thus been made, is crystallized in the
language of Section 3423 of the Civil Code, which declares that an
injunction cannot be granted: '7. To prevent a legislative act by a
municipal corporation.' "

Under the present procedure as heretofore outlined to the Board
of Supervisors it appears that the passing of a resolution of acceptance
would precede the actual granting of a franchise ordinance. In view
of the fact that the franchise ordinance constitutes a contract, the
passing of the resolution would simply be an overt act leading toward
the entering into of the contract, so that when such a resolution is
passed definite action against the Board of Supervisors might be taken,
but not sooner, for the reason that the Supervisors must make a definite
move before a cause of action arises. Until such time as the resolution i
is passed the Supervisors are merely exercising their legislative dis- I
cretiou. When the resolution has been passed the Supervisors have
begun the course of creating a definite obligation and the question of
discretion is no longer pertinent.

It is, therefore, my opinion that until the Board of Supervisors
make a definite move leading toward acceptance of the bid of the San
Francisco Disposal Company, Inc., no action for an injunction can be
properly brought. This means that the issue is now squarely before
the Boaid witli respect to whether the Board desires to accept or reject
the proposition of the San Francisco Disposal Company, Inc. ;

This, of course, in view of my ojiinion. becomes entirely a question j
of policy.

Respectfully,

WALTER A. DOLD.
Chief Deputy City Attorney.

Mayor Requests Ordinance for Leasing Unused City Property.

The following was presented and read by the Clerk:

San Francisco. Cal., February 2. 1931.

Honorable Board of Supervisors of the City and County of San Fran-
ci.sco, City Hall. San Francisco. California.

Gentlemen: Recently the City Attorney rendered an opinion ad-
vising nie that the existing method of allowing individuals and firms
to occupy lands owned by the City and County, and not in use by any
of the departments of the City and County, was illegal. The opinion
carried with it recommendations to the effect that your honorable
Board pass legislation that would simplify the method of leasing unused
City property at a minimum of expense because of the small returns
obtainable from many of the unused parcels. Pending the passage of
such legislation I have designated Mr. Joseph M. Cumming, of this
office, to collect all rents due under the so-called permit system now
in effect.

I recommend to you that an ordinance be enacted by your honorable
Board defining my powers, the length of publication ycu desire to have
made prior to the granting of any lease, and the term for which such
leases may be granted.

Respectfully submitted,

ANGELO J. ROSSI, Mayor.

issuance of bonds for that purpose, to be redeemed and interest thereoni]
paid solely from revenues of the particular utility.

The Board of Supervisors of the City and County of San Franciscol
hereby submits to the qualified electors of said City and County, atj

the general election to be held on the day of

1931, a proposal to amend the Charter, as follows:

That a new article be added to said Charter, to be designated aa
Article . to read as follows:

ARTICLE

Revenue Bonds.

Section 1. Whenever the Public Utilities Commission, created under
the i)ro visions of the proposed Charter amendment adding a newjj
article to the Charter, to be designated as Article XIl-A, and sub-j!
mitted to the voters concurrently herewith, determines that public
interest or necessity demands the acquisition, construction, completion
or extension of any public utility or utilities, and that the cost of
such acquisition or construction should be provided for by the sale I
of bond.s of the City and County, secured as to interest and redemption
solely by the revenues of the particular utility, it shall specifically so
declare such determination by a majority vote of all of its members,
and shall direct its bureau of engineering to procure and file witlij
said Commission plans and estimates of the cost of the acquisition,!
construction, completion or extension of such public utility or utilities.

Section 2. When the Public Utilities Commission certifies to the|
Board of Supervisors its determination that public interest or necessity;
requires the acquisition or construction of any utility of a class noti

MONDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1931. 297

already being operated under the charge of said Commission, or the
acquisition or construction of additions or extensions of a utility then
owned by the City and County which are estimated by its engineering
bureau to cost more than one-half of the gross revenue of the particular
utility for the year immediately preceding, and that bonds of the City
and County of the character herein provided should be issued to provide
tor such acquisition or construction, the said Board of Supervisors
shall, within thirty days thereafter, by resolution, either approve or
disapprove of the plan of acquisition or construction so submitted to
it by the said Commission. If the Board of Supervisors shall, by a
majority vote, api)rove such plan so submitted, it shall, by ordinance,
submit to the votei's of the City and County the question of the
acquisition or construction of such public utility or utilities, or addi-
tions or extensions thereto, and the issuance of bonds of the character
iin this article provided to meet the cost thereof. Should a majority
'of the qualified voters voting on the proposition of the acquisition or
construction of such public utility or utilities, or such aijditions or
extensions, vote in favor thereof, the said Commission may issue bonds
iof the City and County of the class herein provided to meet the cost
'of such acquisition or construction. Such proposition may be sub-
imitted at a special election called for that purpose or at any other
election authorized by law at which the qualified voters of the City
and County are entitled to vote. The manner and procedure for calling
any election authorized by this article shall be governed by the pro-
visions of Article XII of the Charter, so far as applicable.

Section- 3. Bonds of the character herein provided may be issued
and sold to provide the cost of construction or acquisition of additions
or extensions to an existing utility owned by the City and County and
being operated under the jurisdiction of the Commission, upon ap-
proval of such proposed acquisition or construction of such additions
'or extensions by the Board of Supervisors, without necessity for sub-
linission of the proiiosition to acquire or construct such additions or
'extensions to the voters of the City and County, when it appears from
the report of the bureau of engineering of the Public Utilities Com-
mission that such .idditions or extensions can be acquired or con-
istructed for a sum not exceeding one-half of the gross revenues during
;'.he year immediately preceding of the particular system to which such
additions or extensions are to be made.

The Public I'tilities Commission may make additions or extensions
to an existing utility owned by the City and Couuty and operated
mder the jurisdiction of the Commission without necessity for ap-
.jroval of plans therefor by the Board of Supervisors when the cost of
mch additions or extensions can be paid from the revenues of such
itility, after deducting therefrom such sums as are required to pay
operating expenses, depreciation, reserves and bond obligations.

Section 4. The Public Utilities Commission, in determining the
iimount of bonds which will be required to be issued and sold to pro-
vide funds for the acquisition or construction of any public utility,
:)r additions or extensions thereto, may include a sufficient amount
hereof to pay the interest accruing and to accrue on all such bonds
,iold for such purpose during the period of actual construction of such
Itility, or additions or extensions thereto, and for a period of six
nonths immediately following the completion of the same; and said
ublic Utilities Commission, should it determine it necessary so to do,
nay also include a sufficient additional amount of bonds to pay the
estimated operating expenses of such utility, or additions or exten-
lons thereto, for a period of three months after operation thereof shall
fommence.

'^ Section 5. That any and all bonds issued by the Public Utilities
commission, pursuant to the provisions of this article, as well as all
merest thereon, shall be payable wholly and exclusively out of the
evenues received from the operation of the particular utility, for the
j.cquisition, construction, completion or extension of which such bonds
may have been issued or sold.

298 MONDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1931.

Section G. The Public Utilities Commission shall, by resolution,
determine the form and condition of all bonds issued under the pro-
visions of this article, but the rate of interest provided shall not exceed
five and one-half per cent per annum, and redemption of all such bonds
shall besin in not more than ten years and shall be completed in not
more than fifty years from the date of issuance. No such bonds shall
be sold for less than par. Each and every such bond issued shall
state plainly upon its face that it is payable, both as to principal and
interest, only from the special fund created for that puri)ose out of the
revenues of the particular utility, and that it does not constitute a
general indebtedness against the City and County, and, further, that
in the hands of a bona fide holder such bonds shall be deemed to have
all the qualities of a negotiable instrument under the law merchant., j
When additional bonds are authorized and issued under the pro- \
visions of this article to provide funds for the completion of any \
public utility or for the acquisition or construction of additions or
extensions to an existing utility owned and operated by the City \
and Count;?, such additional issue or issues of bonds shall be subordi- (
nate to all prior issues of bonds for such utility which, may have been, i
made hereunder.

Section 7. The Public Utilities Commission shall fix and establish;
just and reasonable rates for service rendered by any utility acquiredj i
or constructed through the issuance and sale of bonds of the charactei;
herein provided, and in fixing and establishing such rates shall takf
into account and consideration the cost of maintaining and operatini
the same, the proper and necessary allowance for depreciation anc;
accident reserves, and the amount required to meet bond redemptioi)
and interest obligations. |

Section 8. The Public Utilities Commission shall cause the grossi
income and revenues of any utility acquired or constructed under th(i
provisions of this article to be deposited daily in the treasury of th<t
City and County to the credit of a separate and special account foi!
each utility. The Commission shall, by resolution, fix and determine |
(a) the proportion of the revenues of such utility which shall bif
necessary for the reasonable and proper operation and maintenanci;
thereof, including pension charges and compensation insurance; (b) th<
proportion of the said revenues which shall be set aside as a proper an(j
adequate depreciation reserve, and also a reasonable and proper acCi
dent reserve; and (c) the fixed proportion of said revenues which shal
be set aside and applied to the payment of the principal and interes
of the bonds authorized under this article, which fixed amount o
proportion of the revenue to be api)ropriated to the bond redemptioij
and interest account shall never be less than the amount required fo
redemption and interest obligations for the ensuing year of the bondj
so issued and sold.

In fixing and determining the proportion of the revenues of any sucli
utility required for operation and maintenance, including pensioi
charges and compensation insurance, the Commission shall make aii
estimate of the cost of such operation, maintenance, pension charge!
and compensation insurance, and shall not set aside by resolution
greater amount or proportion of the revenues than in its judgnien'
shall be properly required for sucli purjjoses. The proportion of th
revenues set aside for operation and maintenance, including pensio)
charges and compensation insurance, shall be used and applied e>
clusively for that purpose until the accumulation of the surplus o
the amount hereinafter specified.

The proportion of the revenues appropriated by resolution to th;
depreciation reserve and to the accident reserve shall be respectivel'
expended in meeting the cost of depreciation in the particular utility
or extensions or additions thereto, and in the payment of acciden
claims. Any accumulation of such depreciation reserve or such ace
dent reserve may be invested, and if invested, the income from tli
investment shall be carried into the particular reserve from whicl

MONDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1931. 299

I such investment was made. Such reserves and the proceeds thereof
shall not be used for any other purpose than as herein provided.

The tixed proportion of the revenues which shall by resolution be

: appropriated for the payment of the principal and interest of the
bonds issued under the provisions of this article for each particular
utility shall, from month to month, as the same shall accrue and be
received, be set apart and paid into a special account in the treasury
of the City and County, to be identified as the bond redemption and
interest account of the particular utility. In fixing and determining

, the amount or proportion which shall be set aside for the payment

; of the principal and interest of the bonds issued hereunder, Mie Com-
mission may provide that the amount to be set aside for such purpose
for any year or years shall not exceed a fixed sum, which fixed amount
or proportion of the revenue to be appropriated to the bond redemp-
tion and interest account shall never be less than the amount required
for redemption and interest obligations for the ensuing year of the

[bonds so issued and sold.

Ij If any surplus shall be accumulated in the said operating and main-
tenance fund which shall be equal to the cost cf operation and main-
tenance, including pension charges and compensation insurance, of
the particular utility during the remainder of the operating year then
current, and the estimated cost of operation and maintenance, pension
charges and compensation insurance for said utility for a period of
six months thereafter, any excess over such surplus may be by the
Commission ordered transferred to either the depreciation account,
accident reseive account, bond redemption and interest account, or may
be transferred to a surplus account to be used for extensions or addi-

'jtions to the particular utility, as the Commission may decide.

.[ The Commission may, by resolution, adjust the amounts or portions

llof the gross revenues of the utility to be appropriated to the particular
'purposes in this section specified at the beginning of each operating
year, and in any such adjustment shall be guided by the results ex-
perienced during the preceding year or years, but the tixed propor-
tion or sum to be appropriated to the special fund to meet the redemp-
tion and interest payments shall never be reduced below the actual

; ifequirements for such puri)ose for the ensuing year.

i ! Section f*. The provisions of Section 11 of Article XII-A of the
Charter shall govern the sale or manner of selling of all bonds issued
under the provisions of this article. All such bonds shall l)e signed

:urer of the City and County, and countersigned by the Auditor of the
City and County. The signature of the said Auditor may be by fac-
simile. The provisions of Section 11 (a) of Article XII of the Charter
shall apply to all such signatures. All such bonds shall be issued in
denominations of not less than ten dollars and not more than one
thousand dollars, as the Public Utilities Commission may decide, and
shall be payable, both as to interest and principal, in gold coin of the
United States, and at the office of the Treasurer of the City and County

:ontrol in all matters pertaining to the acquisition, construction and
control of public utilities or extensions or additions thereto, and to
the issuance or sale of bonds for such purposes where not herein other-
wise provided. It is the purpose and intention of this amendment to
provide for the issuance of bonds payable entirely out of revenue and
cor the manner of their payment and redemption, and not to change
3r annul any provision of said Article XII-A except as the same may
ipply to the issuance and payment of bonds payable wholly out of
•evenue, and the manner of the acquisition, construction or extension
if utilities, the cost of which is to be provided for by said bonds as in

number of votes in, favor of this amendment than may be cast in favor
of the amendment hereinbefore referred to as Article XII-A, or that
there may be cast a greater number of votes in favor of said last-
mentioned amendment than may be cast in favor of this amendment,
shall not cause any conflicting provision in one of said amendments to
prevail over the other.

Section 11. Bonds issued under the provisions of this article shall
not be subject to the limitation contained in Section 9 of Article XII
of the Charter, and bonds issued hereunder shall not be considered
in determining the application of the limitation contained in Section 9,
Article XII of the Charter respecting the issuance of general obligation
bonds of the City.

Section 12. The Board of Supervisors, with the approval of the
Public Utilities Commission, may submit a proposition to the qualified
voters of the City and County to refund all outstanding bonds of the
character provided for in this article which were theretofore issued
and sold for the acquisition, construction, completion or extension of
any particular utility, by the issuance in lieu thereof of general obli-
gation bonds of the City and County, bearing interest at the same rate
and redeemable at the same times as such outstanding bonds. If the
proposition to so refund such outstanding bonds shall receive the
assent of two-thirds of the qualified electors of the City and County
voting tliereon at an election called for that purpose, then such out-
standing bonds shall be refunded by the issuance and exchange there-
for of general obligation bonds of the City and County of the character
provided for in Article XII of the Charter. All bonds issued under i
the provisions of this article shall contain a statement, wTitten or j
printed thereon, to the effect that the City and County reserves the
right to refund such bends by the issuance and exchange therefor of '
general obligation bonds of the City and County, authorized and issued
in accordance with this section. j

that the proposed Charter amendment adding a new article to the
Charter, to be designated as Article XII-A, providing for the appoint- ,
ment of a Public Utilities Commission, and submitted concurrently '
herewith, be ratified by the voters and later approved by the Legis- t
lature. j

Section 14. The term "Public Utilities Commission" or "Commis- J
sion," as used in this article, shall mean the Public Utilities Commis- '
sion provided for by the Charter amendment referred to in the pre- i
ceding section. j

abridge, control or revoke the power of the electors of the City and '
County to vote for and cause to be issued bonds or general obligations i
of the City and County for the acquisition, construction, completion or?
extension of any public utility as provided for in Article XII of the]
Charter, or to acquire, construct, complete or extend any public utility
as provided for in said article, but this article shall be deemed to be!
an additional and supplemental method for the acquisition, construe-;
tion, completion or extension of any public utility and for the issuance'
of bonds of the class herein provided, to pay for the cost of the same.

approval and such order or demand is a proper and legal order or
demand and the amount of said order or demand does not exceed the

mittee relative to the use of the outer tracks of the Municipal Railway

charge during the reconstruction of the latter's rails, and declaring

Railway tracks on Market street by the Market Street Railway Com-
pany during the period necessary for that company to reconstruct its
rails, that if, in order to shorten the reconstruction period and con-
sequent traffic congestion, it is deemed advisable to grant such re-
quest, that provisions be made for the use of the Municipal Railway

commoding the least possible number of people who live in the Sunset
District.

Report of City Engineer on Incinerator Plans and Specifications.

February 21, 1931.

Honorable A. J. Rossi, Mayor, and the Board of Supervisors, City and
County of San Francisco, San Francisco, California.

Gentlemen: Pursuant to Resolution No. 33319 (New Series), I trans-
mit herewith my report covering the plans and specifications proposed
by the San Francisco Disposal Company for an incineration franchise.

The plans and specifications submitted include an incinerator of the
Superior Mutual Assistance Type.

In general, I find that the method of receiving and handling the
materials as proposed by the bidder differs entirely from my recom-
mendation. This method was recommended, after careful study, in a
report to your Board and was based on the fact that the best way
of handling San Francisco's garbage and refuse would be by the gravity
system, that is, the scavengers would haul materials to the tipping floor
at a high level and the materials would then gravitate through the
plant.

The type of plant submitted by the bidder utilizes a crane and bucket
for elevating materials to the charging floor. By reason of this impor-
tant difference in the handling of materials, the entire area and size of
the building are influenced. As stated in my previous report, I have
opposed this type of construction as being insanitary. The operation
by crane and bucket tends to scatter the materials on the stoking floor.
The arrangement of the tipping floor and the pit is such that expe-
ditious movement of trucks is limited, causing delays.

I find from my examination of the plans that all details of the plant
are limited in size and reduced to the absolute minimum. The arrange-
ment of the plant allows for no future extensions of buildings or fur-
naces.

In the matter of guarantees the specifications mention items of per-
formance which the bidder should guarantee, but nowhere in the pro-

438 TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1931.

posal does he definitely guarantee their fulfillment. I very particularly
stress the following items in my specifications which have been evaded.

The capacity of the furnaces has been increased up to an inflated
rating of 200 tons each. Four furnaces are to be used and only two
chimneys. By putting in these large units the plant would be seriously
crippled on the repairing of either furnace or chimney, and materials
would have to be hauled away from the incinerator, as there is not suf-
ficent storage space available.

The grate area of the proposed furnaces is identical with that of
the Chicago Goose Island Incinerator, except that the Chicago furnace
had four cells, and five cells are proposed for that of San Francisco.
The acceptance test of the Goose Island plant gave the tonnage rate
in 24 hours as 121.8 tons. Thus, allowing another 30 tons for the
added cell, would give each furnace, as proposed by the bidder, a maxi-
mum capacity of 150 tons in 24 hours, or a possible maximum of 600
tons for the entire plant, as compared to the capacity of 800 tons in
24 hours called for.

The storage pit as proposed will accommodate, without rehandling
the materials, not more than 400 tons, as compared to the provisions
in my plans for 2,000 tons.

The arrangement of handling materials does not permit or allow of
any space for salvage of materials, or a clean and convenient method
of disposing of the large, non-combustible materials.

It is absolutely imperative in the new plant that the disposal of the
ash into the cars shall be confined within the walls of the plant, so that
all objections from ad.iacent property owners will be removed. The
bidder's plan does not adequately take care of this condition.

In the design, according to my plans, the incinerator plant, from all
outside appearances, could not be distinguished from any type of fac-
tory, as adequate room is provided to cover every operation within the
building. In fact, the building, even during the period of maximum
load condition, would not cause any nuisance and would be an im-
provement to the district.

In the bidder's plan one whole side of the building would be open,
and no provision has been made for closing. The offensive results of
any operations or conditions inside the building, such as dust, odors,
and even noise, could very easily penetrate to the outside.

Inasmuch as my examination shows that the general arrangement
and characteristics of the bidder's plans are almost identical with the
Superior Plant at Chicago, with only some very slight differences, it
is fair to assume that the cost of operation should be somewhat analo-
gous. Extracts from the Fifty-fourth Annual Report of the Bureau of
Public Works of Chicago show the cost of incineration, exclusive of
overhead charges and plant write-off, as $1.87 a ton, operating on a
321-ton basis per day.

In my report and observations of 1929 the Engineer of the City of
New York gave the operating cost of the Chicago plant as $1.83 per
ton. These cost reports indicate also that coal is necessary to be used.
The percentage of ash and non-combustible materials, after burning,
amounted to an average of 18^/^ per cent.

It is only plausible to infer that under garbage collection conditions
in San Francisco the percentage of furnace ash would run from 15 to
20 per cent, unless a considerable amount of non-combustible materials
be taken out of the garbage before it enters the plant. Such require-
ments may be the intent of the bidder, as is evident from statements
made in his proposal.

According to the terms of Section 48 of the Specifications, which the
bidder expressly states are a part of his proposal, the City is bound to
force the scavengers to deliver all refuse collected, including paper,
bottles and other materials that are now salvaged by the collectors.

This would result in a violent protest from the scavengers, a demand
for segregation of refuse by the householder, and for adjustment of
present collection charges. There is no doubt that at the present time
the salvaging of materials from the collections makes it possible for

TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1931. 439

the scavengers to conduct their business at the present rates and to
operate the present City-owned incinerator at the $1 a ton rate.

It may readily be seen that under this arraugenaent the City, through
the Board of Health, will be bound to take away from the scavengers
a large part of their present revenue and to turn it over to the fran-
chise holder.

The revenue from the salvage materials during the term of the fran-
chise will probably pay all fixed charges on the plant and repay the
bidder for the cost of building the incinerator. This may explain why
the bidder is willing to operate for $1 a ton.

I would bring to your attention the expense and trouble which will
most certainly be entailed by the City in attempting to enforce this
part of the contract.

The most important part of any contract that the City enters into
on any class of work, and virtually the only pledge that it has for the
proper enforcement and fulfillment of the contract, is the guarantee
attached thereto.

The bidder's specifications, which are a part of his proposal, prac-
tically eliminates all the essential requirements that I had incorporated
in my specifications to insui'e that the City would have value received,
and that upon its completion, the plant would not be a nuisance and
operate efficiently.

Neither the bond nor the proposal in any way binds the contractor
to produce a plant that will actually burn SOO tons of San Francisco's
garbage in 24 hours. The bond only binds the bidder to dispose of,
by incineration, all garbage and refuse collected in the City, and to
build an incinerator of 800 tons' capacity, but it does not bind him in
any way in regard to the construction or operation of said incinerator.

The test proposed by the bidder eliminates the provisions which I
incorporated in my specifications to insure proof of capacity to dis-
pose of the 800 tons daily under regular working conditions.

Although your Board has already been advised of some of the items
in the bidder's proposal, I cannot refrain from dwelling again on the
inconsistencies that would cause confusion and trouble to your admin-
istration. The omission of the final disposal of ash from the car to
the dump, or other place of disposal, places the City in the position of
entering into additional contracts for this purpose, thereby imposing
on the taxpayers an additional charge, now borne by the scavengers.

The reference in the bidder's proposal to the garbage being burned
"other than non-combustibles" is rather indefinite, and might put the
bidder in the position of being able to refuse to receive at the plant
certain non-combustible materials, which would probably be added to
the ash for disposal at the City's expense.

The further provision that the bidder is to receive $900,000 for the
complete plant at the end of any calendar year, without depreciation,
would place the City in the position of paying $900,000 for a depreci-
ated plant at the end of 25 years. I have made an estimate of the plant,
covered by the bidder's plans and specifications, and I find that it
would cost not over $550,000.

It may be said that many of the objections mentioned in this report
can be taken care of in the ordinance granting franchise, but I spe-
cifically call your attention to the last sentence on page two of the
proposal :

"The Company agrees to comply with all the requirements
and conditions set forth in said Resolution No. 33570 and the
advertisement dated December 10, 1930, not in conflict here-
with."

There are further legal difficulties, of which your Board is fully
aware, as pointed out to you by Mr. Dold, Assistant City Attorney.
The delay incident to a lawsuit, demanded by the bidder at the City's
expense, to establish the legality of the proceedings, eatails further
complications.

With the bidder holding an exclusive franchise for disposal the City

440 TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 24. 1931.

will be indefinitely prevented from doing anything to mitigate the
nuisance of the present incinerator.

I can readily predict that if this franchise is granted to the bidder
we will have a repetition of the disagreeable proceedings and costly
lawsuits that were involved in the construction of the abandoned in-
cinerator on Kansas and Army streets.

In view of the above statements and the fact that the propo-sal and
included specifications are worded in so many places in vague and
elusive terms which would involve the City in endless disputes and
controversies, I do not think it would be advisable or to the best in-
terest of the City to award a franchise to the San Francisco Disposal
Company.

Very truly yours,

M. M. O'SHAUGHNESSY,

City Engineer.

and of the library tax, shall not exceed the rate of one dollar on each

effective unless the ordinance fixing such tax limit shall first have
been approved by a majority of the borough voters voting thereon.

vide other or alternative methods for such collection by foreclosure or
otherwise. Such work or improvements are any permitted to be done
by boroughs under this Charter or by the city and county or by any
such procedure, ordinance or general law.

Nothing contained herein shall prevent the Board of Supervisors
from establishing similar local improvement districts where the same

the cost and expenses of such local public improvements.

relating to the registration of vehicles.

Law relating to inmates of Whittier, Preston, and California School for

Charities.

(Statement: There are approximately ten bills introduced affecting
Chapter 529 of the Statutes of 1929, entitled "An Act to provide for needy
blind persons not inmates of any institution supported in whole or in
part by the State or any of its political subdivisions, making appropria-
tion therefor and providing penalties for violations of the provisions of
the Act." This is the first opportunity for amendments to be submitted
since the act was adopted at the last session of the Legislature, conse-
quently the amendments advocated embrace provisions which merely
clarify the present act while others advocate radical changes which
would place tremendous burdens on the county. The officials adminis-
tering and enforcing these acts have not, to my knowledge, any repre-
sentation in Sacramento. It therefore becomes incumbent upon the
individual counties to diligently watch proposed legislation amending
these acts. Miss Schenck, of the County Welfare Department, considers
the time inopportune to advocate or endorse amendments that would
change the general working scheme of the present act. The possibilities
of increasing the burdens of San Francisco through this class of legisla-
tion are numerous.)

A. B. 1203 (Oliva); A. B. 1194 (Gilmore) — Acts amending Section
2289 of the Political Code relating to orphan aid.

Provides that the age limit for orphans eligible to receive aid be ex-
tended from 16 to 18 years of age. Statistics from the County Welfare
Board indicate this would require an annual increase in the present
appropriation of $24,000.

A. B. 9G6 (Clowdsley)— An act to amend Section 4099a of the Political
Code relating to orphans and half orphans in computing their accounts.

Provides that the Auditor shall receive 2 per cent of the money ad-
ministered through his office in payment of orphan and half orphan aid
as compensation for handling said accounts. Section 4099a now provides
that the Auditor shall receive a reasonable amount for such services.
In accordance with this section San Francisco appropriates $3,000. The
moneys handled by the Auditor in administering this orphan aid amount
to approximately $1,000,000, which means that if 2 per cent were allowed
as compensation for handling this sum of money the additional expense
to San Francisco would be exorbitant.
