Bush Street Widening
Supervisor Uhl called attention to Bush Street which, he held, was a
natural route for bus transportation. By reducing sidewalk widths on
that street, six traffic lanes could be provided. Electroliers are now be-
ing placed at the curb, on the sidewalks on Bush Street, and if possible,
it would be advisable to halt their installation until the width of side-
walks could be definitely established. For that reason. Supervisor Uhl
announced, he would move that sidewalk widths on Bush Street be re-
duced to nine feet.
The Chair, however, ruled the motion to be out of order, pointing out
that sidewalk widths must be established by ordinance.
Mr. A. D. Wilder, Director of Public Works, stated that it was planned
to make both Bush and Pine Streets one-way streets, and that the in-
creased width of street which could be made possible by sidewalk width
reduction would not be of sufficient value to warrant the expense en-
tailed.
Supervisor Uhl, however, announced his intention to present to the
Board on Thursday, January 8, 1942, necessary legislation to effect what
he desired.

Communications were presented, read by the Clerk, and acted on as
noted:

In Memoriam — Miss Kathryn G. Sullivan
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor Colman presented Resolution No. 2355. as follows:
Whereas, Almighty God in His wisdom has summoned to her eternal
reward Miss Kathryn G. Sullivan, Senior Clerk-Stenographer for this
Board of Supervisors; and
Whereas, A native and life-long resident of this City, Miss Kathryn G.
Sullivan entered the service of this Board of Supervisors in 1907, since
which time she earned the highest respect and abiding love of all with
whom she was associated — from her superiors because of her com-
petence, efficiency and deep sense of loyalty, and from her co-workers
because of her ever-present willingness to cooperate and lend a helping
and experienced hand; now, therefore, be it
Resolved. That this Board of Supervisors by this means expresses in
some small mtasuie the shock and keen sorrow that it, and the per-
sonnel of its office, feels at the passing of Miss Kathryn G. Sullivan,
and offers the simple prayer to the Most High that He give her the
Eternal Peace and Rest which she so richly deserves; and, be it
Further Resolved, That when the Board of Supervisors adjourns this
day it does so out of respect to the memory of the late Miss Kathryn
G. Sullivan; and the Clerk is hereby directed to forward to her family,
so that they may be cognizant of the high regard in which she was
held and as an expression of the sympathy which the Board extends in
their hour of bereavement, a suitable copy of this resolution.
Unanimously adopted hy rising vote.
Remarks by Members of the Board
Supervisor Ratto, prior to the induction into office of the newly
elected members of the Board, expressed the desire of being afforded
an opportunity to thank the various city officials and departments
of the city government for the splendid cooperation shown during his
period of eight years as Supervisor. He expressed his appreciation,
also, for the assistance given him by Dr. J. C. Geiger and by the Public
Welfare Depai'tment in affording relief to needy citizens. He desired,
also, to congratulate the new members of the Board and to wish them
every success.
During his I'emarks, Supervisor Ratto reported on a meeting of the
THURSDAY, JANUARY 8, 1942 19
California Highway Commission which he had attended during the past
week. At that meeting the Highway Commissioners had objected to
suit ordered filed by the Board to recover a portion of funds appro-
priated by the federal government for the construction of the Funston
Avenue approach to the Golden Gate Bridge. The Commissioners had
suggested that the suit be withdrawn. Some way could be worked out
with the Highway Commission whereby additional aid might be granted
by the State on other projects for the benefit of San Francisco. For that
reason. Supervisor Ratto would suggest that the Board rescind its
previous action, requesting the City Attorney to bring suit against the
Commission.
Supervisor McSheehy, in his farewell remarks, announced that he
was very grateful to the people of San Francisco for electing him
six times in succession as a member of the Board of Supervisors. He
had enjoyed the work of the office, and, naturally, hated to leave it,
but he recognized that the will of the majority must be obeyed. Super-
visor McSheehy then congratulated Supervisors-elect Gallagher, O'Gara,
MacPhee and Green on their election, and paid tribute to their organi-
zation, which was in great measure responsible for their election.
They conducted a well-organized campaign. They maintained their
organization, even after theii election, as evidenced in the election of
the President of the Board. Supervisor Colman, whom he desired to
congratulate.
In further remarks. Supervisor McSheehy expressed tribute to the
Clerk of the Board, Mr. David A. Barry, who has served the Board for
more than thirty-five years, and to his staff of assistants, each one of
whom is an efficient stenographer, ready and willing to help each
Supervisor in every way possible.
In closing. Supervisor McSheehy again congratulated the newly
elected Supervisors, about to assume office, and expressed the hopes
that they ever work for the best interests of the City of San Francisco.
Again he desired to thank the people of San Francisco for their support
in the past.
Supervisor Dewey Mead, Chairman, announced that on behalf of the
Board of Supervisors, he extended best wishes to both Supervisor
Ratto and Supervisor McSheehy for every success and all good luck
in their future undertakings, and expressed his pleasure for having
had the opportunity of knowing them and working with them.
At the hour of 12 o'clock, noon, the Chair asked the Clerk if there
was any business to bring before the Board.

Election of President

Supervisor Jesse C. Colman. In nominating Supervisor Colman as
President of the Board. Supervisor O'Gara stated that he believed, by
the vote on November 4, 1941, when the people of San Francisco elected
four new Supervisors, they had expressed not only a desire for a
change in the personnel of the Board, but a desire for a change in
its leadership.
Supervisor Brown, after brief tribute to Supervisor Colman, his
fairness, ability and other qualihcations, seconded the motion by Su-
pervisor O'Gara.
On motion by Supervisor Uhl, further nominations were closed.
Whereupon, the roll was called and Supervisor Jesse C, Colman was
elected President of the Board of Supervisors by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman. Gallagher, Green. MacPhee, Mead,
Meyer. O'Gara, Roncovieri, Uhl — 10.

Thereupon, the Chairman, Supervisor Dewey Mead, relinquished
the Chair to President Jesse C. Colman.
President Jesse C. Colman expressed his sincere gratitude to the
Members of the Board for the honor conferred upon him, and pledged
himself to protect the parliamentary rights of each Member and to
give each Member ample opportunity to express his views and to ac-
complish the duties for which he was elected.
Remarks by Members of the Board, Officials and Citizens
After introduction by the President. Members of the Board, City
Officials and citizens addressed the Board, as follows:
SUPERVISOR GALLAGHER: I feel extremely honored today at being
elected by the people to this Board of Supervisors. There is not much
to say except th&t we have a job to complete and I know the job is
more important at this time than it was when we were elected. We
little dreamed then of a war and the many things that would come
before this body. Members of the Board should promote harmony
among themselves and should work for the best benefit of all the people
of San Francisco. I hope we can join with the people of all walks of
life in San Francisco, especially people of labor, business, civic life
and newspapers, in ironing out our difficulties that have taken place in
years gone by. We have a job to do and we should do it honestly and
intelligently. Again I wish to express my sincere thanks to the people
who elected me and to the many organizations which supported me.
and to my friends and acquaintances. With their help and with the
help of two of the newspapers, we have been elected to this office.
I hope that San Francisco will soon again take its place as the metropolis
of the west, and will do my best to see that this is done.
CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER. THOMAS A. BROOKS: As
Chief Administrative Officer it is a pleasure to attend this meeting today
and to welcome the newly-elected members of the Board of Supervisors,
and to assure them as well as all members of the Board of Supervisors,
that they will always have the fullest cooperation of all departments
of the Chief Administrative Officer. I thank you.
CHIEF OF POLICE. CHARLES DULLEA: I want to extend con-
gratulations to the Board and especially to the newly-elected members,
and to pledge the fullest cooperation of the San Francisco Police De-
22 THURSDAY, JANUARY 8, 1942
partment. I wish you all a long and successful term in office. I desire,
also, to congratulate Supervisor Colman on his election as President.
Thereupon, President Colman, on behalf of the Board pledged to the
Mayor, the Chief Administrative Officer and to the Chief of Police,
full cooperation in the important job they have undertaken — the matter
of Civilian Defense.
SUPERVISOR CHESTER MacPHEE: Today I am very humble
and very proud — humble because today I serve the City of my birth in
an official capacity for the first time — San Francisco where the dome
of the City Hall is still sixteen feet higher than the dome of the National
Capitol in Washington — and proud because it has become my very good
fortune to become associated with the good gentlemen who made up
the Fusion Ticket in the recent election. I hope that some day soon
Harold Brayton, who was not elected this time, will serve with us
as a Supervisor for San Francisco. In Dan Gallagher and Robert Miller
Green we have two experienced legislators who have formerly served
in the State Legislature, and in Gerald O'Gara we have a man whose
ability is unquestioned and who will be a tremendous asset to the
Board of Supervisors. Naturally, I am proud of my association with
these gentlemen, and San Francisco, too. will have cause to be proud
of them. I wish to express to the outgoing Supervisors who have
for years given freely of their time and efforts to the City I love. I
also wish to thank the other members of the Board of Supervisors, who
have been courteous and extended cooperation to us since the election.
When we filed for office on September 30th of last year, we realized
there is much to be done for San Francisco, and since that memorable
filing date, the extreme emergency that faces us calls for true devotion
to our duty; I pledge you that devotion. I also wish our able President,
Supervisor Jesse Colman, Godspeed on his important trip to Wash-
ington, and once again I want to assure you that I will never do any-
thing to reflect discredit upon the trust and honor placed in me here
today. Thank you.
SUPERVISOR GERALD O'GARA: First, I want to thank you, Mr.
President, for the kind introduction you have given me, and particularly
for the reference to my father, and I want to thank my friends and
also the newspapers for making possible the happy result of the election;
I am especially grateful to my friends who have accompanied me
here today. Just a word of the task that lies before us; you elected
us in peace, and now we have to serve you in war and endeavor to gear
our City government to wai'-time speed and efficiency, and the task
as I see it is this: First, the City of San Francisco and all its citizens
must give everything we've got to win this war, and we'll win it. To
that end we must keep our men and plants busy producing for defense;
we must have labor peace, and a traffic system which will provide for
a smooth flow of traflSc; and, second, after making full allowance for
an all-out war effort, we must as nearly as possible see that life and
business in this City go on as usual, and we must let the rest of the
State and the rest of the country know that in San Francisco we are
working with confidence and determination by day and we are living
by night with wholesome laughter and music, war or no war. In time
of war we must prepare for peace. That is the only certainty of war.
that peace will come. Then conditions must be restored to normal,
workers must be provided with jobs, and improvements must be made
that our City so liadly needs. That is a big order, and I in my small
part pledge our best efforts and absolute faith in our ultimate success.
SUPERVISOR ROBERT MILLER GREEN: I am sincere when I say
today that I stand before you in all humility; I am not unmindful of
the tremendous responsibilities you have placed on my shoulders. In
times of peiil and war the foundations of democracy are imperiled; let
us members of the Board of Supervisors put aside petty differences and
work shoulder to shoulder foi- the maintenance of the principles of
democracy as we know them, and for the furtherment of the City of
THURSDAY, JANUARY 8, 1942 23
San Francisco. I think we are going to do that. With the energy of the
new men and the experience of the older men, we can work together
and do a job we can be proud of. I will not breach the confidence you
have reposed in me.
SUPERVISOR ADOLPH UHL: Mr. President, elected officials, my
fellow citizens: I am taking this opportunity to outline to the newly
elected members of the Board some of the views I have in civic affairs.
It is indeed gratifying to know that my record and policies were
approved at the recent election. I feel deeply grateful! Due to the
promises of economies and constructive legislation, the voters elected
four new Supervisors: Messrs. Gallagher, Green, O'Gara and MacPhee.
In order to assist these Supervisors in fulfilling their promises of
constructive legislation and economies. I pledge them my support.
Election of four Fusion candidates should be a warning to the
Supervisors who will seek reelection two years hence. It behooves
them to fall in line with the economies and constructive legislation
promised by the Fusion candidates: otherwise, two years hence, the
slogan might be: "FINISH THE JOB!"
Economies: "Cut to the bone" is the Mayor's appeal. I am for
cutting to the bone where economies are possible without impairing
efficiency. The first department in the budget is the Mayor's. Since
the Mayor requests cutting to the bone, I respectfully urge him to set
the example by cutting to the bone in his department. The Mayor can
make the first cut by leaving vacant the position of his Executive
Secretary only recently appointed Director of Civilian Defense, thereby
saving the taxpayers $5400 per year. I look forward with keen interest
to economies that will be suggested in the 1942-43 budget by Mr. Lewis,
employed by the Mayor to assist him in compiling the budget. It is an
opportune time to say to the Mayor, "Check carefully the item of
automobiles." "See to it that City uutomoMles are restricted to City
business, not politics: using same for other than City business should
be taboo." No official or employee should be assigned an automobile
when merely used for private business or transportation to the office in
the morning and home at night. Officials or employees who have only
occasional use for a City automobile should be restricted in the use
thereof. Such a case exists in the Board of Supervisors, which has
two automobiles at its disposal and a chauffeur for each. The cost
of operating these two cars, covering salaries, gasoline, oil, tires, wash-
ing, repairs and depreciation will be conservatively between eight and
ten thousand dollars per year. There is set up in this year's budget
$2500 for a new automobile for the Supervisors. This money should
be transferred immediately to the General Fund.
If the members of the Board are economy-minded, they will abandon
the use of the Supervisors' automobiles. This will be a test regarding
economies.
Needless Employment: I favor employment of an efficiency engineer
to make a survey of every department covering the efficiency of the
departments and whether or not the departments are over-staffed. In-
cluded in this survey should be whether or not time clocks should be
installed.
Reducing the Number of Supervisors to Seven: The following propo-
sition is for your careful consideration, as I feel it is a matter of great
importance. Reduce the number of Supervisors to seven; serving
full-time; salary, $6,000 per year. Board meetings daily at 10:00 A. M. ;
all matters to be acted upon within thirty days. Committee meetings
daily at 2:00 P. M.; all matters to be reported back to the Board by
committees within ten days. This proposal should be placed on the
ballot at the first election as a Charter Amendment is required. From
my experience, covering eight years on this Board, I am justified in
saying one meeting and four hours each week is not sufficient for
efficient and adequate operation. Inner workings of the City's affairs
cannot be comprehended by attending four meetings a month.
24 THURSDAY, JANUARY 8, 1942
Frequently, matters which should be disposed of promptly, will
due to procrafifination. drag on for weeks. An outstanding instance
was the matter of permit fees covering patent chimneys. It was. in
committee for many months. Another was the matter of reducing the
taxi fare to one dollar, maximum, from point to point.
For your information, a matter is presented to the Board; is referred
to committee; committee takes it under advisement, which means a
delay of a week or more; if referred to the City Attorney, it involves
more delay. The matter finally reaches the Board. After much con-
sideration, and discussion by the Board, the matter is frequently re-
referred to committee; or, as often happens, remains on the calendar
for one or two weeks. A recent example: The Board was requested
to enact legislation whereby the fees from penalties collected by the
State for violation of the law in the matter of killing ducks out of
season, etc., should be earmarked and used for the breeding of ducks,
pheasants, etc. This matter was referred to the Judiciary Committee
in November; it was favorably reported out of committee and on the
calendar December 1st. "Pursuant to request of proponents, consider-
ation was postponed by the Boai'd of Supervisors until Monday, De-
cember 8th." It appeared on the calendar on December 8th. "Con-
sideration postponed until Monday, December 15th" at which meeting
the matter was favorably acted upon — practically one month from the
time the matter was introduced in the Board and its adoption. Under
a full-time Board, this matter would have been cleared in one week.
Additional Reasons for Full-Time Board: Appeals should be heard
by the Board of Supervisors instead of by appointed individuals, as in
the case of the Board of Permit Appeals. I maintain the work of the
City Planning Commission should be carried on l)y the Board of Super-
visors, the Boai-d being the elected representatives of the people. In
the final analysis, in case of appeal, the Supervisors and not the Plan-
ning Commission render the final decision. Much duplication of effort,
expense and inconvenience to the citizens can be avoided if the matter is
entirely in the hands of the Board of Supervisors.
At this point, the President interrupted further presentation of
statement by Supervisor Uhl, calling attention to the fact that the
matters about which Supervisor Uhl was speaking were not before the
Board at this time. They can. President Colman stated, be brought
before the Board at the proper time, but during these inaugural cere-
monies they are not in order.
SUPERVISOR ALFRED RONCOVIERI: To my esteemed associates
who today retire from office I extend my sincere good-will. I bid them
a fond God-speed in all their undertakings, with the assurance that I
feel honored to have served with them, and to call them, and be called
by them, friend.
To the newly-elected members of this Board I extend a hearty wel-
come. I congi'atulate you, gentlemen, for the confidence the people
have reposed in you ; for to be placed in a position of ti'ust by the
people in an honest American democratic election is one of the highest
honors that can be conferred on any citizen. I wish you all a happy and
useful public career.
These inaugural exercises come at a time when the whole civilized
world is in flames, and plunged in embittered hate. Fate has forced
our nations into the most inhuman war in all history. The barbarous
atrocities, and the despicable treachery of those stab-in-the-back. Godless,
gangster nations, have aroused in our free and peace-loving America,
a spirit that will never down, until they and their ideologies are
crushed to earth, and peace and goodwill to men shall rise transcendent
forever in a Christian world.
Never in the history of oui' beloved country has there been a time
when graver and more important duties and responsibilities have been
suddenly thrust upon every man and woman in public office. Although
these duties and responsibilities weigh heavily on all of us in these
THURSDAY, JANUARY 8, 1942 25
trying times, nevertlieless we liave tlie faith, we have tlie courage, and
we have the will to conquer for our glorious American ideals.
But this is not enough. As Supervisors, we must husband our re-
sources with the greatest care in order to provide as large sums as
possible for the sinews of war, which alone will hasten the day of
victory. The urgency of the present, demands solidarity of purpose, and
the cooperation of every department of our municipal government. This
is imperative.
We must all be ready and willing to make any sacrifice, for besides the
problems caused by the war, we are confronted with inevitable alter-
ations in our social, economic and governmental structures.
Never before has this Board of Supervisors faced problems of such
magnitude and importance, complicated as they are by the chaos of
total war.
The solution of these problems require the heaven-born qualities
of intelligence and moral courage, and, al)ove all, devotion to lofty
ideals. They challenge the best thought and experience, not only of this
Board, but also of the most enlightened of our fellow-citizens.
I venture the hope that each one of us will think of himself as an
independent member of this Board, unaffected except as his conscience
and sense of duty may dictate; and that when decisions are made, they
will at all times truly represent the composite thought of the entire
membership of this Board.
With high resolve and determined purpose, let us pledge our supreme
eft'ort of heart and mind to the solution of the great problems that
confront our beloved City of St. Francis.
ASSEMBLYMAN THOMAS MALONEY: Mr. President, newly-elected
members of the Board of Supervisors, hold-over Supervisors, ladies and
gentlemen and those who have just retired from office. I was happy
today to have had the privilege of listening to the talks of John Ratto
and Jim McSheehy, and in the good American way in which those
gentlemen came in here, expressing their best wishes to those who had
been elected to take their places. That is the spirit in which this
country was founded and Avhich San Francisco has gone a long way to
earn the title of the "City that Knows How." I want to thank the
Board for courtesies extended to me and to the people of my district. I
am speaking here today as an orphan, because on next Monday I will
probably go to Sacramento to battle by myself, due to the absence of
Judge Cronin and Assemblymen Gallagher and Miller.
SUPERVISOR ARTHUR M. BROWN, JR.: My congratulations to
you, Mr. President, for your elevation, and I pledge to you my unquali-
fied support. When I first ran for Supervisor, I received an invitation
to appear before an improvement club in the North Beach District,
which asked me to tell them all my qualifications for Supervisor, and
allotted me the time of two minutes in which to give them all my quali-
fications. I think two minutes is ample time for a Supervisor. I want
to express to the new members of the Board the hope that we can work
together on the problems that confront the City during this emergency,
and I know that they have only the best interests of the City in mind,
and since that has been my policy for ten years I feel confident we can
go ahead together from here and see eye to eye on most of our problems.
With regard to the departing Supervisors, I wish them Godspeed and
success in the business world to which they are returning. About John
Ratto: I doubt if there was any man on the Board of Supervisors or in
the City government who is better known in the region around San
Francisco or more favorably known. I do hope that some way can be
found to still make use for San Francisco of John's popularity in the
country regions. As to Jim McSheehy, he and I probably tangled more
often than any other members of the Board. We just could not see
anything together for several years. Finally we were designated as a
committee of two to go to Washington on a City matter. He sat at one
26 THURSDAY, JANUARY 8, 1942
end of the train and I sat at another until evening of the first day, wlien
we liad dinner togetlier. Tlien we played casino from then on to Wash-
ington. The score was then even. While we waited for dinner, McSheehy
said, "The casino championship of the Board of Supervisors has not
been settled," and it has never been settled. After the other dinner
guests arrived, Mr. McSheehy took me to one side and said, "Brown,
when we have disagreements on the Board, don't take it too seriously."
And I offer this suggestion to the new members of the Board, because
the other fellow's point of view is entitled to the same consideration
as yours. To Supervisors Ratto and McSheehy, may I wish them success
on their return to business, and we will be delighted to see them any time
and have them favor us with the benefit of their advice.
SUPERVISOR DEWEY MEAD: I fell that speech-making should be
confined to those who have just been elected to the office of Supervisor.
However, I congratulate Supervisor Uhl and the new members of the
Board, and wish them every success. Unlike Supervisor Uhl, however,
I am not committed to any individual or to any group on this Board of
Supervisors. I ha^ e not been in the past, and will not be in the future.
I owe my duty to the people of San Francisco as a whole. I propose to
continue along those lines. I do suggest most respectfully, though, that
the new chairman try to the best of his ability to carry out the recom-
mendations and suggestions of the Grand Jury as to how this Board of
Supervisors should conduct its business. Members of the Board of Super-
visors can expect my full cooperation whenever matters presented are
to the best interests of the people of San Francisco.
SUPERVISOR FRED MEYER: I have already told the new members
personally that they will have my full cooperation. I also offer my co-
operation to the President.
MUNICIPAL JUDGE MELVYN I. CRONIN: I want to join in the ex-
pression of congratulation and best wishes to the newly-elected meiubers
of your Board today. I know the new members very well. Two of them
I have served with in the State Legislature, and I can testify to their
ability, industry and sincerity — I refer to Supervisors Dan Gallagher
and Robert Miller Green. With respect to Supervisor Gerald O'Gara, my
friendship with him goes back to when I was his classmate at the Uni-
versity of San Francisco. To Supervisor MacPhee may I say that I also
know him quite well, but not for so long as I have known the other three
I have mentioned. I know him to be a man of industry and ability and
I know that he will serve you well. All my congratulations and best
wishes for a distinguished career as members of the Board of Super-
visors.

BILLS AND COMMUNICATIONS NOT CONSIDERED OR

Memorializing State Legislature and Governor to Consider Favor-
ably Legislation Appropriating Funds to Provide Adequate
Quarters for Golden Gate Bridge Guard.
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor Mead presented Resolution No. 2370, as follows:
Whereas, In the extensive program of civilian defense now being
pi-osecuted vigorously in the San Francisco Bay region, there is no one
pro.iect more vital than adequate defense of, and vigilance over, the
Golden Gate Bridge, linking San Francisco and its peninsula with
Northern California, Oregon and Washington; and
Whereas, It is essential to the maintenance of an ample guard on the
Golden Gate Bridge that said guard be provided with suitable living
quarters on, or in the immediate vicinity of the Bridge; and
Whereas, Although the Bridge guard at the present time is using
makeshift quarters, it is the understanding of this Board of Supervisors
that the State Legislature will consider, at its special session now con-
vened, legislation appropriating approximately $25,000 for provision
of adequate lodgings for the Golden Gate Bridge guard; now, therefore,
be it
Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors of the City and County of
San Francisco, deeply cognizant of the importance of fully protecting the
Golden Gate Bridge and of providing the appurtenances necessary for
that protection, does hereby urge all members of the Legislature of the
State of California to pass, and the Governor of California to sign,
legislation to make available funds to provide suitable quarters for the
guard on duty on the Golden Gate Bridge; and be it

Abolishment of Incumbents' Preferential Position on Ballot
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor O'Gara presented Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, One of the vital issues of the late general municipal elec-
tion was the question of a preferential place upon the ballot for incum-
bents, authorized by Section 3802 of the Elections Code of the State of
California; and
Whereas, The people of the City and County of San Francisco demon-
46 MONDAY, JANUARY 12, 1942
strated conclusively their antipathy for such undemocratic legislation
through the election, by overwhelming odds, of the opponents thereof;
and
Whereas, It was the campaign pledge of those opposed to this special
and pi-ivileged legislation that if elected they would immediately insti-
gate such action as would either abrogate the act in its entirety or
would exempt the City and County of San Francisco from its provisions ;
now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the City Attorney be and is hereby requested to inform
this Board whether or not as to those candidates voted upon by the
electorate in the City and County of San Francisco, the preference pro-
vided by Section 3802 of the Elections Code may be abolished by Charter
Amendment, and be it
Further Resolved, That if it be determined that the question of the
abolition of the preference referred to is a local and municipal affair
such as may properly be submitted to the elctorate of the City and
County of San Francisco for their decision, then and in that event the
City Attorney is hereby requested to draft and submit to this Board a
proposed Charter Amendment having for its purpose the abolition, as to
candidates voted upon in San Francisco, of a preferential place upon the
ballot for incumbents, as provided in Section 3802 of the Election Code.
Referred to Legislative and Civil Service Committee.
Requesting Manager of Utilities to Inquire as to Possible Arrange-
ments for Renting Market Street Railway Company Cars and
the Use of Inner Tracks on Market Street.
(Series of 1939)
Supervisors Uhl presented Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, The service at peak hours on the Municipal Railway's "K"
and "L" lines is most unsatisfactory, and
Whereas, At peak hours passengers crowding the steps of the trolley
car make it necessary for persons desiring to board the car to wait as
much as thirty minutes, and
Whereas, Ordinance No. 764 (Series of 1939) provides that riding on
fenders, steps or running boards of buses, trolley buses and street cars
shall be prohibited, and
Whereas, It is possilile to rent Market Street Railway trolley cars and
effect an arrangement whereby the "K" and "L" lines of the Municipal
Railway can be operated on the inner tracks of the Market Street
Railway, and
Whereas, By such an arrangement the crowding of passengers into
cars like sardines and the crowding of passengers on the steps of trolley
cars will be abated; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That Mr. Cahill be immediately requested to contact the
officials of the Market Street Railway Company to ascertain what ar-
rangement can be made for renting trolley cars and for the use of the
inner tracks fiom Ferry oi' Plan X to Castro Street.
Referred to Public Utilitiefi Committee.
Consideration of Advisability of Making Bush and Pine
Streets One-Way Streets
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, Mr. Wilder, Director of the Department of Public Works,
informed the Board of Supervisors at last Monday's meeting, that con-
sideration is being given to the making of Bush and Pine Streets One-
Way Streets; and
Whereas, It might be desirable to reduce sidewalk widths on Bush
Streets sufficient to permit six lants of traffic, and
MONDAY, JANUARY 12, 1942 47
Whereas, The electroliers are being installed at the curb on Bush
Street; now, therefore, be it
Resolved. That immediate consideration be given to the matter of
Bush and Pine Streets being made One-Way Streets.
Referred to Police Covimittee.
Reduction of Sidewalk Widths on Bush Street to Allow for
Six Lanes of Traffic
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor Uhl presented Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, There is no gainsaying the fact that six lanes of traffic
make possible not only double parking but keep the two center lanes
open, evidence of this fact can be seen on Golden Gate Avenue, Taylor
Street, and other streets having six lanes; and
Whereas, It is desirable because of the amount of traffic on Bush
Street that the sidewalks be narrowed to provide six lanes of traffic; and
Whereas, There is under way the placing of electroliers at the curb
on Bush Street; and
Whereas, In the event that it is decided that the sidewalks should be
reduced, the installation of these electroliers should be temporarily
postponed ; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That immediate consideration be given to reducing the
sidewalks on Bush Street to allow for six lanes of traffic.
Referred to Streets Committee.
Recommending Prompt Decision on Grand Jury Proposals for
Improvement of Traffic Situation
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor Uhl presented Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, The 1941 Grand Jury in its report urges action on the Traffic
Problem, and
Whereas, Improvement in traffic is of paramount importance, and
Whereas, Among the proposals of the Grand Jury the following pro-
posals should have immediate consideration:
One-Way Streets:
Pine Street, one-way east from Mai'ket to Presidio Avenue
Bush Street, one-way west, from Presidio Avenue to Market Street
Turk Street, one-way east, from Divisadero to Mason Street
Eddy Street, one-way west, from Powell to Divisadero Street
Narrow sidewalks on Post Street, from Taylor to Montgomery to
nine (9) feet in width; now, therefore, be it resolved:
That immediate decision should be made on the foregoing proposals.
Referred to Police Committee.
Urging Immediate Consideration of Grand Jury Recommendation
re Improvement of Traffic Situation
(Series of 1939 j
Supervisor Uhl presented Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, The 1941 Grand Jury submitted a report urging action on the
traffic problem, and
Whereas, The Grand Juiy recommends Bush Street should be a one-
way street, a study should be made at the same time regarding the
desirability of widening Bush Street, thus making permissible six
lanes, and
Whereas, The Grand Jury recommends widening of Mason Street,
Turk to Eddy, inasmuch as traffic congestion on Mason Street from
Turk to Eddy, extends as far as Geary, Mason Street should be widened
to permit of six lanes, and
48 MONDAY, JANUARY 12, 1942
Whereas, Congestion of traffic occurs at the intersection of Turk,
Mason and Market due to the trolley car making a left-hand turn into
Mason, the No. 31 line should cross Market at Turk; now, therefore,
be it
Resolved, That immediate consideration be given the foregoing pro-
posals.
Referred to Police Committee.
Consideration of Civilian Defense and Possible Desirability of
Amending Ordinance Thereon
Supervisor O'Gara, seconded l)y Supervisor Green, moved that the
Acting Chairman of the Board attend the next meeting of the Civilian
Defense Council, and report to the Board at its next Monday's meeting
on the status of civilian defense and as to the desirability of the Board
holding a hearing to amend the Civilian Defense Ordinance or to take
other action for the purpose of insuring adequate defense.
No objection, and so ordered.
Employment of Madigan-Hyland, New York Engineers for Survey
of San Francisco's Traffic and Transportation Needs
Supervisor Shannon presented a communication from the San Fran-
cisco Chamber of Commerce, addressed to the Board, opposing a pro-
posal to authorize the Mayor to enter into negotiations with Madigan-
Hyland, New York Engineers, for the purpose of obtaining a contract
with them to survey San Francisco's traffic and transportation needs.
and setting forth in detail, the reasons for that opposition.
Supervisor Shannon, following the reading of the aforementioned
communication by the Clerk, reviewed the consideration previously given
to the proposal of employing the New York engineers. Several months
ago. stated Supervisor Shannon, a request from the Mayor for an
appropriation of $60,000 foi- the employment of Madigan and Hyland,
came before the Board. There had already been appropriated some
money that was available. At that time. Supervisor Shannon continued,
he asked for a breakdown of the figures. Mr. Madigan stated at a meet-
ing in the Mayor's office, that he was more interested in holding his
organization together than in making any money out of this proposed
work. He stated, also, that if we would tell him what we wanted, he
would tell us how to do it. We don't know what we want, and that is
what we were going to employ experienced persons for, whether our
own personnel in the City Hall, or anyone else. In closing. Supervisor
Shannon stated that he desired to bring out, if it is the Mayor's intention
to employ this Arm, to find out just exactly the breakdown of expendi-
ture of this money. In addition to the flat amount this firm is to get.
we are to give certain employments to accomplish what is wanted.
This entire matter should be referred to committee and hearing be held
on the entire matter, so people can know just exactly what San Francisco
is going to get for the money to be expended, and Supervisor Shannon
so moved.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Green.
Whereupon, the Chair referred the matter to the Police Comviittee.
Report on Meeting of County Supervisors Association in Sacramento,
January 9, 1942
Supervisor Uhl. who was ai)pointed to represent the Board at the
meeting of the County Supervisors Association, held in Sacramento,
January 9, 1942, reported to the Board thereon. The subject considered
was Strategic Minerals in the State of California. Supervisor Uhl an-
nounced that he would present a written report for record purposes.
Report on Views
Supervisor Uhl announced that inasmuch as he had been interrupted
while presenting his statement and recommendations at the meeting of
January 8, 1942, he would, under his name on Roll Call present same,
MONDAY, JANUARY 12, 1942 49
and ask that it be made part of the record. Whereupon, he presented
his statement, as follows:
SUPERVISOR ADOLPH UHL: Mr. President, elected officials, my
fellow citizens: I am taking this opportunity to outline to the newly
elected members of the Board some of the views I have in civic affairs.
It is indeed gratifying to know that my record and policies were
approved at the recent election. I feel deeply grateful! Due to the
promises of economies and constructive legislation, the voters elected
four new Supervisors: Messrs. Gallagher, Green, O'Gara and MacPhee.
In order to assist these Supervisors in fulfilling their promises of
consti'uctive legislation and economies, I pledge them my support.
Election of four Fusion candidates should be a warning to the
Supervisors who will seek reelection two years hence. It behooves
them to fall in line with the economies and constructive legislation
promised by the Fusion candidates; otherwise, two years hence, the
slogan might be: "FINISH THE JOB!"
Economies: "Cut to the bone" is the Mayor's appeal. I am for
cutting to the bone where economies are possible without impairing
efficiency. The first department in the budget is the Mayor's. Since
the Mayor requests cutting to the bone, I respectfully urge him to set
the example by cutting to the bone in his department. The Mayor can
make the fii'st cut by leaving vacant the position of his Executive
Secretary only recently appointed Director of Civilian Defense, thereby
saving tlie taxpayers $5400 per year. I look forward with keen interest
to economies that will be suggested in the 1942-43 budget by Mr. Lewis,
employed by the Mayor to assist him in compiling the budget. It is an
opportune time to say to the Mayor, "Check carefully the item of
automobiles." "See to it that City automobiles are restricted to City
business, not jjolitics : using same for other than City business should
be taboo." No official or employee should be assigned an automobile
when merely used for private business or transportation to the office in
the morning and liome at night. Officials or employees who have only
occasional use for a City automobile should be restricted in the use
thereof. Such a case exists in the Board of Supervisors, which has
two automobiles at its disposal and a chauffeur for each. The cost
of operating these two cars, covering salaries, gasoline, oil, tires, wash-
ing, repairs and depreciation will be conservatively between eight and
ten thousand dollars per year. There is set up in this year's budget
$2500 for a new automobile for the Supervisors. This money should
be transferred immediately to the General Fund.
If the members of the Board are economy-minded, they will abandon
the use of the Supervisors' automobiles. This will be a test regarding
economies.
Needless Employment: I favor employment of an efficiency engineer
to make a survey of every department covering the efficiency of the
departments and whether or not the departments are over-staffed. In-
cluded in this survey should be whether or not time clocks should be
installed.
Reducing the Number of Supervisors to Seven: The following propo-
sition is for your careful consideration, as I feel it is a matter of great
importance. Reduce the number of Supervisors to seven; serving
full-time; salary, $6,000 per year. Board meetings daily at 10:00 A. M.;
all matters to be acted upon within thirty days. Committee meetings
daily at 2:00 P. M.; all matters to be reported back to the Board by
committees within ten days. This proposal should be placed on the
ballot at the first election as a Charter Amendment is required. From
my experience, covering eight years on this Board, I am justified, in
saying one meeting and four hours each week is not sufficient for
efficient and adequate operation. Inner workings of the City's affairs
cannot be comprehended by attending four meetings a month.
Frequently, matters which should be disposed of promptly, will
due to procrastination, drag on for weeks. An outstanding instance
50 MONDAY, JANUARY 12, 1942
was the matter of permit fees covering patent chimneys. It was in
committee for many months. Another was the matter of reducing the
taxi fare to one dollar, maximum, from point to point.
For your information, a matter is presented to the Board; is referred
to committee; committee takes it under advisement, which means a
delay of a week or more; if referred to the City Attorney, it involves
more delay. The matter finally reaches the Board. After much con-
sideration, and discussion by the Board, the matter is frequently re-
referred to committee; or, as often happens, remains on the calendar
for one or two weeks. A recent example: The Board was requested
to enact legislation whereby the fees from penalties collected by the
State for violation of the law in the matter of killing ducks out of
season, etc., should be earmarked and used for the breeding of ducks,
pheasants, etc. This matter was referred to the Judiciary Committee
in November; it was favorably reported out of committee and on the
calendar December 1st. "Pursuant to request of proponents, consider-
ation was postponed by the Board of Supervisors until Monday, De-
cember 8th." It appeared on the calendar on December 8th. "Con-
sideration postponed until Monday, December 15th" at which meeting
the matter was favorably acted upon — practically one month from the
time the matter was introduced in the Board and its adoption. Under
a full-time Board, this matter would have been cleared in one week.
Additional Reasons for Full-Time Board: Appeals should be heard
by the Board of Supervisors instead of by appointed individuals, as in
the case of the Board of Permit Appeals. I maintain the work of the
City Planning Commission should be carried on by the Board of Super-
visors, the Boai'd being the elected representatives of the people. In
the final analysis, in case of appeal, the Supervisors and not the Plan-
ning Commission render the final decision. Much duplication of effort,
expense and inconvenience to the citizens can be avoided if the matter is
entirely in the hands of the Board of Supervisors.
Indigent Relief: Under the law, the Supervisors are responsible for
indigent relief. Do the Supervisors give any attention to same? NO!
Recently, I proposed that the Supervisors hear certain persons regard-
ing relief. Objected to on the grounds that it might mean more work
for the Supervisors. It would be more efficient to have a full-time Board
of Supervisors to supervise indigent relief, old-age pensions, etc., at a
salary cost of only three dollars per hour, compared to the present salary
cost of eleven dollars per hour.
Tops in Procrastination is the delay in returning several hundred of
our unemployed unemployables, men, ranging from 60 to 80 years of
age, to San Francisco. These men were on direct relief at an average
cost of $20 per month, as compared to $22.50 per month now paid to the
S. R. A. by the Public Welfa''e Commission. In sending these men to
Sharp's Park, their relief check was discontinued and, as a result, they
have not the price of a newspaper. It is pathetic and cruel to have re-
moved these men from their homes in San Francisco and isolated them
at Sharp's Park and at an adcUtional cost of $750.00 i)er month. $9,000
pel- year to the taxpayer! San Mateo and Alameda Counties did, for a
short time, send their unemployed men to Sharp's Park but they now
take care of their unemployed on direct relief, and the money is being
spent in their own counties.
Repeal Resolution No. 2091: I renew my appeal that the Supervisors
repeal Resolution No. 2091 which resolution authorizes the Public Wel-
fare Commission to send three hundi'ed unemployed unemployables to
Sharp's Park at $22.50 per month. Inasmuch as the justification for
sending the three hundred unemployed unemployables to Sharp's Park
no longer exists, these men should be returned to San Francisco at an
early date.
Terms of Mayor and Supervisors: I renew my suggestion that the
Mayor and the Supervisors' term of office should l)e six years and the
lapse of one term, six years, before qualifying for re-election. Without
MONDAY, JANUARY 12, 1942 51
fear of contradiction, I make the statement that frequently the Super-
visors' vote is based on political, rather than on economical grounds.
An outstanding example follows: Committee was hearing the pros
and cons of a mooted question. Three men were present at the com-
mittee meeting, two principals and a labor representative. The com-
mittee was about to vote on the matter when the labor representative
requested a week's postponement. He was informed that the matter of
labor had been thoroughly discussed and agreed upon by the Board of
Supervisors and a week's delay would therefore be regrettable. Never-
theless, the gentleman pressed his request for a week's postponement.
My colleague on the committee whispered to me: "Adolph, he repre-
sents 1300 votes." This is an example why Supervisors, with few excep-
tions, yield to pressure and votes and that applies likewise to the Mayor.
Therefore, I urge a term of six years and a lapse of one term, before
qualifying for re-election for either Mayor or Supervisor. I positively
feel if re-election on the present basis continues, many matters will not
be considered on their merits.
Recall: Substitute for the Recall Provisions in the present Charter,
the provisions of the Recall as set forth in Sections 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 of
the previous Charter, one of which sections provides: "One petition is
competent to propose the removal and election of one or more elective
officials." A Mayor, aside from the possibility of recall, might die within
one year of his election. Under the present Charter, his successor is
elected by the Board of Supervisors. I maintain his successor should be
elected by the people; otherwise, it invariably becomes a political foot-
ball, as evidenced in the last appointment of James Rolph's successor.
I feel this matter should be placed on the ballot at the next election as
a Charter Amendment.
Rapid Transit: There is no gainsaying the fact that our street car
service is abominable and that some other means of rapid transporta-
tion must be devised. Bus operation seems to be tlie only answer. The
Charter should be amended to make permissible purchase of buses on
the same terms and conditions at which private transportation com-
panies can purchase them, namely, payment in five equal annual in-
stallments; no down payment necessary. Buses should immediately
supplant the "H" line on peak hours from Geary and Van Ness south.
The condition at Van Ness and Geary, southbound, at peak hours is
terrible.
Buses should be substituted for trolley cars at the earliest possible
date on Van Ness, from Bay Street to County Line in the Mission. Due
to the extreme width of Van Ness Avenue and traffic congestion on
Potrero Avenue, where many persons have been killed by autos, also
due to the width of Bayshore and Alemany Boulevards, buses stopping
at the curb will protect the lives of our people.
Bush Street is a natural automobile route. Immediate arrangements
should be made to extend Bush Street through Laurel Hill Cemetery;
in the meantime, route the bus over Bush, Presidio Avenue and Cali-
fornia Street to 25th Avenue and Lake Street. Express service by bus
is possible on Bush Street which will positively reduce the time from
Bush and Sansome to 25th and Lake, one-half. At Monday's meeting
of the Board of Supervisors, Director Wilder of the Department of Public
Works, suggested that Bush and Pine Streets be made one-way streets.
An immediate decision should be made whether or not Bush and Pine
Streets should be one-way streets as electroliers are about to be in-
stalled on Bush Street. If sidewalks on Bush Street are to be narrowed,
in order to provide six lanes, installation of electroliers should wait
until the sidewalks have been narrowed.
Are you aware of the fact that it is impossible to get on the steps of
a Municipal west-bound car on Market Street between 9th and Van Ness
Avenue at the peak hour inasmuch as the step is over-crowded with
neople? Mr Cahill's attention has been called to the ordinance prohibit-
ing persons standing on the steps of a moving car. Why does not Mr.
52 MONDAY, JANUARY 12, 1942
Cahill take the necessary steps to remove the hazard and the abominable
traffic jam at peak hours, when persons are packed in the cars and on
the steps like sardines? Why has not Mr. Cahill purchased new trolley
cars to take the place of obsolete trolley cars? He stated in the Board
of Supervisors some time ago that the present "value of Municipal cars
is $3,000 each." Original cost of trolley cars was approximately $20,000.
Has money been provided in a depreciation fund for the purchase of
new trolley cars? The answer is "NO!"
Realizing that an adequate depreciation fund on a five-cent fare is im-
possible, the Public Utilities Commission abandoned the depreciation
fund. As a result, no funds for sorely-needed trolley cars are available.
Is that not so, Mr. Cahill? If Mr. Cahill were asked: "Why not purchase
more trolley cars for operation on Market Street?" Mr, Cahill would
say: "At peak hours, there is no room for additional cars." I am won-
dering if it has occurred to Mr. Cahill that he might be able to rent
trolley cars from the Market Street Railway and make an arrangement
whereby said cars can be operated on the inner tracks of the Market
Street Railway? Undoubtedly, Market Street Railway cars are avail-
able due to the large substitution of buses.
Due to fewer trolley cars operating on Market Street west of Valencia,
an ordinance was recently passed by the Board of Supervisors for re-
moval of the outer rails on Market Street between Valencia and Castro,
in which case the Municipal cars, "K" and "L" will operate on the inner
Market Street Railway tracks. A similar condition exists east of Fre-
mont on Market. Why not carry out the same plan there? Removal of
outer tracks on Market, east of Fremont, will speed up traffic, and why
not go a step further, looking into the future, namely, supplementing
buses for secondary lines in which case the outer tracks on Market
Street, between Fremont and Valencia, can be removed. With the re-
moval of the outer tracks from the Ferry to Castro, it will be possible
to operate buses on Market Street from the Ferry to Castro Street.
Immediate attention should be given the following: progressive
timing of traffic lights; properly timed and non-interference of police
officers, their interference interrupts continuous travel at predetermined
speed. Most important and which should receive immediate action is
the elimination of left-hand turns in down-town areas, especially at
peak hours.
Regarding traffic jam at Roos Bros., corner of Stockton and Market:
that traffic jam could have been avoided years ago by extending the "F"
line across Market, down Fourth and via Howard to Plan X Terminal
at a moderate expense. Here is what happened when I recently sug-
gested to Mr. Cahill that the "F" line ])e routed across Market, down
Fourth, via Howard to Plan X Terminal. The tracks on Howard Street
east of Fourth were immediately removed, which removal prevented the
extension of the "F" line on Howard Street. Mr. Cahill, being dollar-
minded in place of being service-minded, figured his overhead expense
would be increased by extending the "F" line. I now say to Mr. Cahill:
"Why not extend the 'F' line across Market and down Mission to
either the Plan X Terminal or Ferry." / maintain that it is not necessary
to spend $100,000 /o?- the services of Mr. Madigan and his staff to tell
us these things. It's up to Mr. Cahill!
Will Mr. Cahill kindly inform me regarding his reaction to the fol-
lowing: Has he considered equalizing fares of the Municipal and the
Market Street Railway, equalizing the fares as between five and seven
cents, at the same time providing for a universal transfer? This will
have the effect of giving the people of San Francisco a unified system.
Has it ever occurred to Mr. Cahill that the equalization of passengers
carried by both systems which would follow equalization of fares, would
result in tremendous improvement of service rendered to our people?
I feel that some sort of an arrangement equitable to both companies
must be arrived at in order that transportation can be vastly improved.
A further suggestion regarding transportation. I observed this morn-
MONDAY, JANUARY 12, 1942 53
ing that the Municipal lines operate under skip and jump in the outlying
districts, and this is also the case with the Market Street Railway on
Lincoln Way. I observed operation on Lincoln Way this morning and
believe it positively speeds up traffic. Therefore I recommend that skip
and stop be adopted on all trolley lines in the outlying districts. Would
also suggest that buttons be removed where cars do not stop. This sug-
gestion comes from my observation on Lincoln Way this morning.
Sewer System: The old sewers are known to be in a deplorable con-
dition. Frequent breaks are patched at considerable expense; this is
false economy. It will require several years and a large sum of money
to replace the old, worn-out sewers. Therefore, a five-year plan might
be most desirable. On the other hand, what about sewer rentals?
"One hundred and sixteen American cities have adopted a system of
sewer rentals." Undoubtedly a study has been made of sewer rentals
by our Department of Public Works. In order to expedite matters, it is
desirable that the Supervisors should be advised at the earliest possible
date what recommendations will be made in the matter of sewers and
also a report on sewer rentals.
Industrial Lands: A request should be made of his Excellency, Gov-
ernor Culbert L. Olson, that legislation be enacted whereby the State
will cede to San Francisco all tide lands lying south of Islais Creek, in
order that the city can reclaim same for industrial sites; also purchase
by the city of approximately 1000 acres of tide lands in South Basin.
Municipally-owned industrial lands will place San Francisco on a com-
petitive basis with Oakland. Years ago Oakland had the foresight to
reclaim her mud flats and as a result many of San Francisco's outstand-
ing industrial plants, requiring more lands, moved across the Bay.
Large tracts of industrial lands are not available in San Francisco,
but could be made available with the reclamation of South Basin tide
lands. Regrettably the proposal for San Francisco to acquire the tide
lands in the South Basin, to be reclaimed by fill and cover method, was
defeated due to the fact that the then Health Director, Dr. Hassler, did
not approve fill and cover. In consequence San Francisco's refuse is
being disposed of by means of fill and cover, reclaiming the Southern
Pacific tide lands, and to date approximately one hundred acres of South-
ern Pacific tide lands have been reclaimed, and are worth between a
quarter and one-half million dollars. It is not too late for San Francisco
to acquire the South Basin tide lands.
Reclaiming same by fill and cover would make possible employment
of our unemployed employables over a period of years. It is much more
preferable that the aged men be given light employment by means of
fill and cover. It is deplorable that the administration lacks vision in
so vital a matter.
Junket Trips: The voters, in no uncertain terms, disapproved junket
trips. A word to the wise is sufficient!
National Defense: No stone should be left unturned in the matter of
making national defense one hundred per cent effective. Funds which
will be demanded for national defense will add to the burden of the tax-
payer. It therefore behooves this Board of Supervisors to cut expenses
to the bone and postpone matters not of immediate, vital necessity. I
hope for your cooperation in all constructive matters. I assure you of
mine.
In Memoriam — Mrs. Blanche Bates Creel
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor Uhl presented Resolution No. 2372, as follows:
Whereas, God in His infinite wisdom, has called to her eternal reward
Mrs. Blanche Bates Creel; and
Whereas, Mrs. Blanche Bates Creel, who enjoyed a long and dis-
tinguished career on the American stage, was for many years an hon-
ored citizen of San Francisco, being active in numerous praiseworthy
civic activities; and
54 MONDAY, JANUARY 12, 1942
Whereas, The multitude of friends of Mrs. Creel will join with her
bereaved husband in deeply mourning her passing; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That when this Board of Supervisors adjourns this day
it does so out of respect to the memory of the beloved Mrs. Blanche
Bates Creel; and the Clerk is hereby directed to transmit to her husband,
Mr. George Creel, a suitable copy of this Resolution as a token of the
Board's high regard for Mrs. Creel and as an expression of its sympathy
and condolence.
Unanimously adopted by rising vote.
Appointing Supervisor Frederick W. Meyer a Director of Joint
Highvvray District No. 9
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor Uhl presented Resolution No. 2371, as follows:
Resolved, That in accordance with the provisions of the Joint High-
way Act of the State of California, and pursuant to proceedings here-
tofore taken in the matter of the creation of Joint Highway District
No. 9 composed of the City and County of San Francisco, the County
of San Mateo and the County of Santa Cruz for the purpose of construct-
ing the Ocean Shore Highway, Supervisor Frederick W. Meyer be and
he is hereby named and appointed as director of said Joint Highway
District No. 9 to represent the City and County of San Francisco, vice
John M. Ratto. term expired, said appointment to be effective January
8, 1942.
Adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara,
Shannon, Uhl— 8.
Absent: Supervisors Brown, Colman. Roncovieri — 3.
Amendment to Ordinance Regulating Bus Stops Proposed
Supervisor Uhl called attention to fine imposed by ordinance for
parking in bus stops, and held that the fine of $5.00 as set up in the
ordinance, was too drastic. Motorists, iie stated, were not aware that
they were stopping in bus zones and so were subject to a $5.00 fine. The
fine should be the same as that imposed for parking in any "red" zone,
at least until proper painting of the curb or pavement would unmistak-
ably designate bus stops as such.
In conclusion. Supervisor Uhl moved that the Clerk draft the necessary
legislation to amend that Ordinance by reducing the penalty for violation
thereof from $5.00 to $1.00.
Motion failed for want of a second.
Supervisor Mead announced that he would have seconded the motion,
under ordinary circumstances, but that the correct picture had not been
given to the Board. Ther5 is, in coiinection with the painted curb, a
jellow sign, pointing out that the location is a bus loading zone. In
spite of the painted curbs and the signs, motorists persist in stopping
in such zones, making it necessary for buses to load and unload pas-
sengers in the center of the street. What is required is more policing,
or education of the public.

The following communications were presented, read by the Clerk,

Amendment Proposed
Whereupon. Supervisor MacPhee moved that the same amendment as
proposed for Bill No. 1559, bo written into Bill No. 1560, as follows:
Change the number of Section 2, as presented, to Section 3, and insert
as Section 2, the following:
Section 2. Not later than the twentieth day of each month, the
MONDAY. JANUARY 19, 1942 75
Mayor shall give to the Board of Supervisors a written accounting
and report of all expenditures authorized by him under the terms of
this ordinance during the preceding month.
No objection, and so ordered.
Discussion
Supervisor Shannon, in discussing the foregoing proposed appropria-
tion, requested a breakdown of the proposed appropriation. He desired
to know specifically how the appropriation would be expended. He
desired the information before voting on the Bill providing the ap-
propriation.
Supervisor Uhl expressed agreement with the views of Supervisor
Shannon, and moved that his Honor, the Mayor, be requested to furnish
the requested breakdown immediately. He did not desire to delay
approval of the legislation beyond the day's meeting.
Supervisor O'Gara, also, announced that he did not wish to do any-
thing to delay the matter, but he believed the Mayor must have the
figures requested and could present them to the Board before acting
on the appropi'iation. He desired, too, to know the scope and the dura-
tion of the emergency under which the Mayor would administer this
fund, and similar appropriations. The Mayor has declared an emergency
because of the war situation. The Mayor has brought into the Board
an ordinance providing for Civilian Defense. If it is an emergency
under Section 25 of the Charter, the Mayor will be virtually given a
blank check for $300,000. He does not have to ask the Board for any
authorization for any expenditure therefrom. For that reason, he, too,
desii-ed a breakdown, and he desired, also, a statement from the Mayor
or fi-om the City Attorney as to the scope and the proposed duration
of the emergency.
The City Attorney, however, announced that he was unable, of
course, to answer such a question. However, he stated further, he had
advised the Mayor that so far as possible, he should comply with the
fiscal provisions of the Charter.
Thereupon. Supervisor O'Gara inquired if, in the future, when other
appropriations might be needed, the Mayor would come to the Board
as a matter of courtesy or as a matter of legal necessity. There would
be little use in the Board passing an ordinance, he felt, if the Mayor
intends to do as he wishes.
Subsequently during the proceedings, further consideration of the
foregoing matters having been temporarily postponed awaiting the
Mayor's arrival in the Chambers, Supervisor O'Gara, after noting
the Mayor's presence in the Chambers, requested a breakdown of the
requested |300,000 appropriation, and an answer to the question pre-
viously asked the City Attorney.
Mayoi' Rossi, in reply, announced that it was impossible for him
to say how long the emergency would last. There was in the Mayor's
Emergency Reserve Fund, as of December 7, 1941, approximately
$333,000. Immediately following December 7, 1941, various department
heads requested some $4,524,824 for various defense needs. Up to date
some $303,000 has been allocated, leaving a balance in the Emei'gency
Reserve Fund of only $30,000. Various department heads have cur-
tailed expenditures wherever possible, thus providing the $300,000
which is now requested. How the money will be spent, he could not
tell, but he advised the Board that he would present a weekly report
on its expenditure.
Thereupon Supervisor Shannon requested from the Mayor a break-
down of the $303,000 already expended.
At this moment, Supervisor Roncovieri, who had previously been
absent, was noted present.
The Chair announced that Supervisor Roncovieri desired to vote on
both emergency measures which were being discussed, but could not
remain at the meeting longer than was absolutely necessary.

Be it ordained by the People of the City and County of San Francisco,

nance, and at its will abolish such committees as it deems un-

bers thereof, but membership on said committees need not be

jurisdiction as may be ai)proi)riated to him for the purpose of
meeting the present war emergency may contribute to said

clare that a national emergency exists which makes it imperative that
this ordinance should become effective forthwith, the nature of said
78 MONDAY, JANUARY 19, 1942
emergency being as follows: That the people of the City and County of
San Francisco are in imminent danger by reason of the war existing
between the United States of Amei'ica, Japan, Germany and Italy, and it
is necessary to have additional funds allocated for the use of the several
departments of the government of the City and County of San Francisco,
and for the Defense Council and the committees thereof, in order to pro-
tect the lives, health, safety and property of the people of the City and
County of San Francisco, as well as the property of said City and County.
Approved as to form by the City Attorney.
Finally passed by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara,
Roncovieri, Sliannon, Uhl — 9.
Absent: Supervisors Brown, Colman — 2.
Whereupon Supervisor Roncovieri was excused from further attend-
ance.
Following the vote on the two foregoing Bills the Mayor, in reply
to Supervisor Shannon's request for a brealtdown of the $303,000
already allocated for defense purposes, announced that it was his
intention, after the Controller had prepared a statement, to send an
official copy thereof to tlie Boai'd. informing the Board how tliat
money had been allocated. The Mayor stated further that he would be
glad to send to the Board copy of all requests made for added appro-
priations.
Tliereupon. Supervisor O'Gara. again referring to the Mayor's declara-
tion of an emergency, stated he desired to know, as early as possible,
tlie Mayoi-'s conception of the emergency. He, Supervisor O'Gara,
stated further that he believed where matters could be handled through
charter agencies of the city government, they should follow the regular
course of the city government. For that reason, he would ask the
Mayor whether it is not a fact that the emergency will exist no
longer, nor to any greater degree than is necessary to permit the
normal agencies to function on any particular problem. Could not
the Mayor, after consulting with the City Attorney, advise the Board
as to his views of the scope of the emergency and his emergency
powers.
The Mayor, in reply thereto, pointed out the duties and responsi-
bilities with which he was charged under Section 25 of the Charter.
Following declaration of a national emergency by tlie President of the
United States, and a state emergency by the Governor of California,
he had declared an emergency in San Francisco, and was now acting
under that emergency. . As Mayor of San Francisco, he stated that*
an emergency does exist. However, if anyone questions such existence,
he can take the matter into the California Supreme Court for decision.
The Board of Supervisors, recognizing the existence of an emergency,
has, by resolution, agreed to cooperate fully with the Mayor.
Supervisor O'Gara agreed with the Mayor that an emergency does
exist, and that the Board desires to help the Mayor in any way possible,
during that emergency. However, he believed that except when imme-
diate action is necessary, it would be proper for the Mayor to act
through the ordinary and usual channels of government. If the Mayor
should not agree with that view, Supervisor O'Gara requested that
he make his views known, in writing. Today, the Board, by ordinance,
has provided that the Civilian Defense Council office employees ])e Civil
Service. Having passed that measure, is it not the opinion of the Mayor
that such ordinance is now the law of San Francisco? Emergency or
not, that law controls.
The City Attorney, in answer to Supervisor O'Gara, stated that in
view of the action taken by the Boai-d, the Civil Service Commission
and the Controller will insist that all employments in Civilian Defense
will be in accordance with the provisions of the Charter. The Mayor,
he did not believe, has any intention of violating those provisions
MONDAY, JANUARY 19, 1942 79
unless some emergency should arise. The Board of Supervisors, how-
ever, cannot take away the emergency powers of the Mayor, and in
case of an actual emergency the Mayor can act.
Whereupon, the Mayor himself announced that he could not reply
to Supervisor O'Gara at the moment. He desired first to consult with
the City Attorney. However, he had no desire to assume or take over
any more responsibility than he now had. He was, of course, heartily
in favor of employing Civil Service employees whenever possible,
as far as the regular functions of the city government are concerned.
In this emergency, all the employees, so far as he knew, were only
temporary. Making them Civil Service, and giving them all the benefits
now enjoyed by regular Civil Service employees, is a matter for serious
consideration. He desired to work in harmony with public spirited
citizens, but if it is desired to sabotage civilian defense work and to
take over the responsibility for the work, that is up to the Board.
He, himself, was complying with the provisions of Section 25 of the
Charter, and was endeavoring to do a job. He has exercised the
powers of the Mayor as prescribed in Section 25 a number of times.
However, if anyone questions that there is an emergency, he would
welcome a court test.

mittee, was taken up:

Discussion
Supervisor MacPhee, at whose request consideration of the foregoing
Resolution has been postponed from the meeting of January 12. 1942,
in discussing the same, reported that he had made an investigation
of the district wherein prohibition of parking was proposed. There
is. Supervisor MacPhee stated, a tremendous parking problem facing
workers in the shipyards, which problem would be greatly increased
should the suggested prohibition be approved. Before voting on the
matter, he continued, he desired to hear from a representative of
the Police Department or the Fire Department, and to learn the reasons
prompting the recommendation.
Subsequently during the proceedings, Mr. Frank Kelly, Chief of
the Division of Fire Prevention and Investigation, appeared before
the Board, and explained that because of the many gasoline distribu-
ting plants within the area, the proposed parking prohibition was most
essential. Parked automobiles would greatly handicap the Fire De-
partment in case of a fire in the district.
Supervisor MacPhee. thereupon, announced that he would not oppose
the adoption of the foregoing Resolution, but that if same should be
approved by the Board some arrangements to enable the workers in
the district to park their automobiles, should be made. He would,
therefore, move that the Chair appoint a committee to report back to
the Board at a later date on what might be done to alleviate conditions
with which workers in the area had to contend.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Uhl.
No objection, and motion carried.

Memorializing Congress for Adequate and Complete Defense
of the Pacific Coast
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor Meyer presented Resolution No. 2383, as follows:
Whereas, Events occurring since the advent of war between the
United States and Japan have conclusively vindicated the long pre-
vailing contention that the Pacific Coast of the United States of
America constitutes the most militarily strategic area in our country;
the area, under present conditions, most vulnerable to attack and most
important to our successful conduct of the war in which we are pres-
ently engaged; and
Whereas. Because the Pacific Ocean is the main theater of the war
efforts of the United States of America, it becomes vital to our interests,
both for the safety of our military and civilian population and for
the conservation and expansion of the many industries engaged in
the production of instruments of war, that immediate and completely
effective measures be undertaken, in this area, for the protection of
human lives; for the building of a constantly healthy and victory-
inducing morale, and for the continued and uninterrupted program of
production of those materials and supplies which are imperative for
the defeat of the assassins of Pearl Harbor; now, therefore, be it
Resolved. That this Board of Supervisors, representing the people
of the City and County of San Francisco, does hereby memorialize
the Congress of the United States and does exhort that honorable
body to immediately take such steps as will insure complete and in-
vincible protection to the people and to the facilities, war producing
and defensive, upon the Pacific Coast; and, be it
Further Resolved, That copies of this Resolution be sent to President
Roosevelt, to Vice-President Wallace, to Secretaries Knox and Stimson,
and to the California delegation in Congress.
Arlopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher. Green. MacPhee. Mead. Meyer. O'Gara,

Requesting Report on Street Improvement Problems
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor O'Gara presented Resolution No. 2384, as follows:
Whereas, The streets of the City and County of San Francisco have
been for a long time and now are in a deplorable condition because
of numerous ruts and other defects, many of them in main thorough-
fares, and
Whereas, These street ruts cause severe* and unnecessary wear,
damage and destruction to automobile tires, and
Whereas, Due to the war, rubber and tires are scarce and the damage
caused by street ruts causes irreparable damage and extreme hardship
to our citizens and will impede military operations in defense of San
Francisco, and
Whereas, In the event of blackouts, emergency vehicles are likely
to break axles and other parts on these rutted streets, causing damage
to the vehicles and injury or deatli to the citizens whose safety and
lives these vehicles are intended to preserve; now. therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors of the City and County of
San Francisco hereby requests immediate and continued repair of all
streets whose condition is a menace to the tires, automobiles and lives
of our citizens, and the civilian defense and military forces defending
San Francisco, such repair being an emergency matter of the greatest
importance to the safety and welfare of our citizens, civilian defense
and national defense; and be it
Further Resolved, That this Board directs its Clerk to request the
Chief Administrative Officer and the Director of Public Works of the
City and County of San Fi-ancisco to appear before this Board at its
next regular meeting, January 26, 1942, or as soon thereafter as they
can do so, to explain to this Board sitting as a Committee of the Whole :
(a) Why there are so many ruts and other defects in the streets
of San Francisco and what steps are being taken to repair
them.
(b) What procedure is now followed to inspect the streets to
promptly discover and repair ruts.
(c) What recommendations the Chief Administrative Officer and
the Director of Public Works would make for immediate im-
provement and continued maintenance of the streets in a
proper and safe condition.
(d) In what way this Board and other city officials can assist in
bringing about such improvement and maintenance.

Designating Administrative Officer Who Shall Have Charge of
Providing Burials for Veterans
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No. 2386. as follows:
The Clerk called attention to the necessity of appointing an admin-
istrative officer to have charge of arranging for burial of veterans,
in place of Dr. Adolph E. Schmidt, former Supervisor, whereupon, on
motion by Supervisor Mead, seconded by Supervisor MacPhee, the fol-
lowing Resolution was taken up:
Whereas, Section 942 of the Military and Veterans' Code of California
provides for the appointment by the Board of Supervisors of an Admin-
istrative Officer whose duty it shall be to provide decent burial for vet-
erans, one of the requirements being that such administrative officer
shall be an honorably discharged veteran; now. therefore, be it
Resolved. That Jesse C. Colman. a member of this Board of Super-
visors, who has honorably served in the United States Army, be and
he is hereby designated as administrative officer for the purpose of
arranging decent interment for veterans who die in the City and County
of San Francisco without having sufficient means to defray the expenses
for burial and for such other purposes as may be provided by law.

In Memoriam — Carole Lombard
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor Shannon presented Resolution No. 2387, as follows:
Whereas, The nation as a whole was shocked to hear of the crash
of a palatial air liner with the attendant loss of its entire passenger
list and personnel in Nevada while enroute to the West Coast; and
Whereas, Such a catastrophe is of itself a trying circumstance to be
endured by the host of friends and relatives of the deceased, but
above and beyond that, when it is brought to mind that the plane
carried among its passengers the beloved actress of the screen. Miss
Carole Lombard, and also, that the plane was carrying the doubly
precious burden of fifteen members of the Air Force, it is readily
seen that throughout the nation a feeling of stunned silence is main-
tained as if in reality every true American is in mourning for the
deceased; and
Whereas, When it is known that, last but not least, the mother of
the famous Carole Lombard was also taken from this life by the same
terrible means, the feeling of sympathy for the equally famous actor
husband of Miss Lombard, Clark Gable, is beyond expression by this
poor means; and
Whereas. Of recent weeks Miss Lombard had been actively engaged
in the sale of Defense Bonds for the benefit and safety of all Americans,
the success of which endeavor having been beyond all expectations
as was evidenced by the welcome accorded her at her every appearance;
now. therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors hereby expresses its deepest
sympathy to the husband of the late Carole Lombard, and goes on
record as believing that the loss of so famous a personage of the
amusement world will be as keenly felt by her many "fans" as by
himself, nevertheless it dares suggest to him that such a glorious
end to such a glorious career as that of Miss Lombard was most
fitting, she having served her destiny by leaving an imprint not easily
erased from the hearts and minds of the theater loving public
throughout the world, having endeared herself to all who knew her
as being a "trouper" without parallel, having made a true and loving
92 MONDAY, JANUARY 19, 1942
wife beyond compare, and that her end, sudden and shocking as it
was, would forever be a candle lit upon the Altar of Democracy; and,
be it
Further Resolved, That the Clerk of the Board be and he is hereby
directed to send a copy of these resolutions to Clark Gable, husband
of the deceased, as some small indication of the shock felt by this
body at the passing of Carole Lombard.
Unanimously adopted by rising vote.

The City Attorney presented Bill No Ordinance No ,
as follows:
Providing for the designation of Official Civilian Defense Insignia

Be it ordained by the People of the City and County of San Francisco,
as follows:
Section 1. The official insignia adopted by the United States Office
of Civilian Defense to designate the various defense groups, and set
forth in replica, in the volume entitled "Enrolled Volunteer Worker
Groups for Civilian Protection", prepared by said United States Office

of the United States of America, including the City and County of
San Francisco, and it is necessary for the safety and general welfare
of the citizens of the City and County of San Francisco that all persons
assisting in Civilian Defense should be properly identified.

thereof to any person or citizen, is held invalid, such invalidity shall
not effect any other provision, or the application thereof, which can
be given effect without the invalid provision or application, and to
this end the provisions of this ordinance are declared to be severable.
Referred to Police Committee.
Report by Supervisor Dan Gallagher
CIVILIAN DEFENSE COUNCIL MEETING,
Thursday, January 15. 1942. 4:00 P. M.~
Mayor Rossi opened the meeting with remarks to the effect that the
past two or three weeks have seen municipal agencies vigorously
prosecuting defense activities, and in the interim since the previous
meeting he has appointed Chief Dullea as Coordinator of the Defense
Council. He complimented Chief Dullea on doing a splendid job, with
the cooperation of the various departments.
Chief Dullea reported that the Control Center is completely set up
and ready to operate in the basement of the City Hall. Mr. Lyle Brown
of the Telephone Company requested the Chief to report for him that
while his unit is complete in the control center, he desires provision
of an alternate control location; there will be nothing found wanting
in the Communications Committee and in the function of the Control
Center. The Air Raid Warden Service is practically completed.
Dullea had a meeting this afternoon with the Chief Air Raid Warden
and his principal assistants, and they gave a splendid progress report;
Dullea is sure that the organization is in very good shape and ready
to function. The arm bands are ready for immediate distribution.
1250 to each of the four Division Wardens; that organization will
function 100%. The Auxiliary Police organization is being handled
through the Veterans' organizations, and the members are being-
trained and sworn in at a rapid rate. Within this area they will
perform all manner of police duties when required to do so. District
Attorney Brady is arranging for instruction of these men as to
criminal laws. etc.. affecting their duties. A force will be available
of close to 4,000 men. The headquarters of the Defense Council will
move into the City Hall in the Registrar's quarters as soon as ar-
rangements can be made. All of its activities will flow through the
City Hall and be routed to the various agencies outside the City Hall.
Chief Dullea thanked everyone for the help given the Council, and
stated that every bureau in the City government is cooperating 100%.
He stated that the demolition groups. 22 squads, have been formed
under Mr. Wilder; they have been staffed with men through the help
of the Labor Council and the C.I.O., and everything possible to protect
the people is being done and is rapidly nearing a successful completion.
Mr. Ralph Wiley, Chief of the Department of Electricity, stated
that the first group of 8 sirens was inadequate to cover the City. The
94 MONDAY, JANUARY 19, 1942
City has been laid out so tliat there will be one siren for every square
mile, necessitating 26 more, of which 18 are now installed but not
connected. We will have a total of 37. and we don't claim everyone
in San Francisco will be able to hear one if there is occasion to use
them, but we do think the City will be adequately covered with sirens
when we have the 37 in place, which we hope will be next week.
Chief Dullea stated to the department heads and people active in
rendering service and aid in an emergency blackout that there will be
some control tests which will come when least expected. Department
heads will be notified that there is a control test, and then they must
report at once to the Control Room. It is imperative that a test be
made of our emergency telephone service.
Acting Controller Harry Ross reported that there has been a total
of $303,000 allocated by the Mayor to date, primarily for bringing the
departments up to emergency standards to meet the present situation.
$230,000 of that money was taken from the Mayor's Emergency Reserve
Fund, and the Imlance, $73,000, came out of departmental surpluses.
The principal items were for medical and surgical supplies, the em-
ployment of an additional number of individuals for the emergency
hospitals, the employment of 75 firemen, 6 captains and 6 lieutenants
for the Fire Department, including compensations to June 30th, 1942;
also the employment for necessary guarding of Public Utilities prop-
erties, the installation of the first group of sirens, the expenses of
operation of the Civilian Defense Council itself, materials and supplies
necessary to fill in shafts of various tunnels, etc., of the water system.
Mr. Ross presented a complete list of expenditures, copy of which was
handed to those present. He estimated that the surplus we have is
somewhere between $300,000 and $500,000.
Mr. Theodore Roche reported that shortly before the end of the
year, an order was issued requesting reports from the various depart-
ment heads. Mr. Roche presented a detailed write-up of those reports
and read same to the Council; it included activities of the Health
Deartment, Air Raid Warden Service, Public Works Department, Public
Utilities Commission. Department of Electricity, re-opening of Potrero
Police Station, temporary street closings, emergency water supply,
public information service including printing of pamphlets, posters,
motion picture trailers, billboards, press releases, etc., the Fire Service,
Communication Service, American Relief Commission of the Red Cross.
Mr. Larke of the Red Cross announced that tonight at 8 : 00 o'clock
at the Roosevelt Junior High School he is conducting a formal inspec-
tion of their set-up, which many of the gentlemen here might be in-
terested in seeing; about 200 people will participate. He particularly
invited attendance of the Chief of Police. The Red Cross has also given
the order today for the first of the rescue trucks which they intend to
have, similar to those of the Fire Department. In addition they have
ordered some 750 more blankets and other equipment for emergency
stations. Daily they are sending a supply of surgical dressings to the
emei'gency hospitals and their own stations, so in another week they
will have an adequate supply of dressings at all points.
Mr. John Cahill inquired as to the status of the 20 pumping units, and
as to what progress is being made in getting more of the units. Mr.
Brooks stated there is no progress being made in getting any units in
addition to the 20, as the automobile situation is frozen until at least
February 2nd, and the automobile dealers cannot tell when trucks will
be available. The Mayor stated that he had had a telephone message
from Controller Boyd who was in New York and who is also repre-
senting the Mayor at the Conference of Mayors in Washington; Mr.
Boyd advised that legislation appropriating defense moneys had been
tentatively passed and would be finally passed in the next day or two,
and San Francisco and the Coast cities would receive first consideration.
The Mayor expressed the thought that we should go slow on orders
for the pumping units, and probal)ly the Federal Government could
get the equipment for us sooner if we waited for its aid.
MONDAY, JANUAPY 19. 1942 95
Mr. John Caliill asked regarding rental of equipment and trucks for
the pumps. Mr. Brooks answered that if the new trucks are released
on February 2nd they will be available in plenty of time to mount
the pumping apparatus, which won't be available for about three
weeks. Chief Brennan stated that we would have about 1400 pumping
units. Mayor Rossi reiterated that Mr. Boyd is on the job, and he is
inclined to go along with Mr. Boyd's recommendations as the latter
will remain in Washington until he gets some action. Mr. Cahill stated
that the Advisory Board recommended 156 pumping units, or 3 units
to each of the divisions in the Fire Department. The Advisory Board
still feels very strongly the danger of waiting too long on Congres-
sional action, and believes we should still keep in front of our minds
the danger inherent in the fire situation; it is a menace that we
should regard with a great deal of fear.
Mayor Rossi stated that the Water Department had received a
letter from Army authorities which notified the City that guards are
being withdrawn in Alameda County and other locations, protecting
against sabotage on water system properties. The Mayor stated that
if we cannot get aid in this direction from the Federal Government
or the State Government, we must then take measures ourselves to
provide adequate guards. Communications were read from the Army
authorities to the Water Department, from the Mayor to each of our
representatives in the State Legislature at Sacramento, and from
Governor Olson to Mayor Rossi, all on the subject of adequate guards.
Mayor Rossi announced that we are unable to furnish guards for
the Water Department property and transmission lines. He received
a letter fi'om Nelson Eckart of the Water Department advising that,
including the Hetch Hetchy Project, 211 guards are required — San
Mateo County, 94 men; Alameda County, 61 men; Hetch Hetchy
Project, 56 men. Mayor Rossi signified that he will ask the Governor
for that service. Mr. Eckart supported the request for guards at
length.
Mr. Cahill expressed a desire for immediate action on the matter
of guards, and offered a motion that the Council request the Mayor
to make said reqeust of the Governor.
Supervisor Gallagher addressed the Council to the effect that he
was present on motion of the Board of Supervisors, to make notes of
what transpired at this meeting. Supervisor Gallagher made the
following remarks: "I don't say we are going to be critical of your
organization because I think you are doing and will continue to do a
good job. Supervisor Bob Green and I went to Sacramento the early
part of this week, and found the Legislature were in a quandary
regarding the guard and the Governor's emergency fund. The Governor
told me that anything San Francisco needed would be provided at his
hands, provided his emergency fund was replenished. The gentlemen
of the San Francisco delegation are working hard, particularly as far
as San Francisco is concerned, with the idea in mind that the Governor
is there to grant requests. Every other large county in the State has
a representative in Sacramento to further and protect its interests;
San Francisco has not. I think it is time San Francisco had a repre-
sentative to advise the Legislature what San Francisco's needs are.
I spoke to Mr. O'Toole yesterday, and he is looking into the matter
to see what he can do. I also tried to get in touch with Chief Brennan
so that he could go to Sacramento with regard to an appropriation for
pumps and concerning pumpers that might be loaned to the City by
State agencies. If there is anything I can do as far as the Governor
is concerned, or in any other way, I want you to call upon me."
Mr. John Cahill's motion was thereupon carried by acclamation.
Mayor Rossi suggested that legislation should l)e initiated by the
Board of Supervisors whereby representation might be had in Sacra-
mento. Supervisor Gallagher replied that he would do so.
Chief Brennan reported that Assemblyman Welch had introduced
96 MONDAY, JANUARY 19, 1942
a bill appropriating some $5,500,000 for the implementation of fire
departments in the metropolitan areas of the State; also another bill
for $2,000,000 for implementation of the Forestry Service and county
fire service.
Mr. O'Toole announced that he had contacted Dick Graves, who is
associated with the League of California Cities and the Civilian
Defense Committee of California, asking that our legislative repre-
sentatives be wired to support a rider to the State Guard Bill providing
for an appropriation of some $5,000,000 which would be allotted to
cities with regard to their respective needs. Today the Mayor sent
such a wire to our six lower house representatives asking that they
use every effort to have said rider approved.
Mr. George Reilly declared that we have six legislators at Sacra-
mento who are there to represent San Francisco; he thinks we should
make requests of them and be in closer touch with them as that is
their job in Sacramento today, to see if they can support a program
beneficial to our City; lacking an appropriation for a special repre-
sentative in Sacramento, we should make our wants known to the
representatives we now have there. We should bring home to our
legislators themselves that they should make some inquiries as to
what they can do when they go to Sacramento — the job and the
responsibility is theirs — give them something to do.
Mr. Belgrano stated that he had voted for the motion previously
carried, but that it might be well to inform our legislators how we feel
about the function of the State Guard as a permanent feature. We
must lecognize, however, that we are in a war and in a combat zone,
and under circumstances such as these it is an obligation of the
Federal Government to protect its citizens and its property. We
should ask our representatives in Sacramento to see that adequate sums
are appropriated and an adequate State Guard supplied; they should
go one step further and memorialize Congress so that men not subject
to first line service could be inducted into the regular Army for service
in protecting the lives and investments of people within continental
United States.
Mayor Rossi announced that he would call a meeting such as this
from time to time to keep the Council advised as to what is going on.
Mr. Belgrano moved that this Committee go on record to ask its
representatives in Washington to pursue legislation to that end, and
further, that our representatives in Sacramento endeavor to promote
legislation to memorialize Congress that immediate steps be taken
to enlarge the army and provide for a secondary class of service for
home defense so that we might be fully protected. Mr. Danziger
offered an amendment to the motion, that the entire motion be refei-red
to the Executive Committee of the Council, who shall consider it and
report back at the Council's next meeting.
Mr. Cahill moved that the Mayor be authorized to appoint an
Executive Committee of about seven members.
Carried by acclamation.
Mr. Belgrano repeated his motion previously made, which was carried
by acclamation.
Mayor Rossi declared the meeting adjourned, and announced that
the next meeting of the Council will be held on Thursday, January
22nd. 1942, at 4:00 p.m.
Report of Committee Sent to Sacramento to Represent the City
and County at Extraordinary Session of the Legislature
Supervisor Green, Chairman of the County, State and National Affairs
Committee, reported on his trip to Sacramento with Supervisor Gal
lagher, representing the City and County at the extraordinary session
of tlie State Legislature. Governoi- Olson, reported Supervisor Green,
would not open up the scope of his call for the extraoi'dinary session
of the legislature to consider aiding the counties in their relief prob-
MONDAY, JANUARY 19, 1942 97
lems. However, with respect to Treasure Island, and its transfer to the
Federal Government, the Governor did open his call. The Bill as pre-
sented provided that San Francisco give Treasure Island to the Federal
Government, in fee simple, without any provisions for any payment,
or for any return to San Francisco when its use by the United States
Navy was no longer necessary. Amendment proposed by Supervisor
Green provides for a lease rather than an out and out grant, and for
the return to San Francisco after the lease expires and the emergency
is over.
Supervisor Green suggested also that it was most important that
San Francisco have adequate representation at Sacramento during
legislative sessions.
Supervisor Gallagher, supplementing the remarks by Supervisor
Green, reported that while at Sacramento he had been assured by the
Governor that Hetch Hetchy system would be adequately guarded upon
request by the Mayor. The Governor has placed on Hetch Hetchy
properties 215 guards.
Appointment of Committee for Observance of Independence Day
Supervisor Uhl, seconded by Supervisor Green, moved that his Honor,
the Mayor, be requested to appoint a Citizens' Committee for the proper
observance of Independence Day, July 4, 1942.
No objection, and so ordered.
Supervisor MacPhee presented:

Relief Telephone
Operators at $5.00 a day. These employees were not interviewed.
Following the foregoing presentation, Supervisor MacPhee commented
briefly thereon, stating that some of the aforementioned employees, at
least two of them, had been replaced.
On motion by Supervisor Uhl the foregoing statement was ordered
inserted in the Journal of Proceedings.
Following the reading of the foregoing list of employees, and in
answer to remarks previously made by the Mayor, Supervisor O'Gara
stated that he desired to assure the Mayor that he had no desire to
sabotage Civilian Defense or to usurp any of the Mayor's rights. He
merely wanted to know what functions and powers belong to the
Mayor, and what belong to the Board, and requested that the Mayor,
after consulting with the City Attorney, send the Board a statement
as to his powers in this emergency.
Whereupon, Mayor Rossi, in reply, repeated his previously made
statement that he did not want to assume any more responsibilities
than he had to. He also desired to know just how much power and
responsibility was his. He did not know how employees of the Civilian
Defense Council had been appointed. The Civilian Defense Council,
immediately after December 7. 1941. requested that the plan that had
been evolved be put into effect. How many employees there were
the Mayor did not know.
For further information of the Board, the Mayor announced that
Civilian Defense Council headquarters were to be established in the
Registrar's Office, City Hall, where the employees will be stationed.
The Mayor stated also, that all functions of the city government,
as far as he was concerned, would be filled by employees from the
Civil Service Lists.
As to the employees of the Civilian Defense Council, before any
criticism should be made, the Mayor felt that the Council should be
given a hearing. Public spirited citizens should not be discouraged in
their efforts to provide for adequate defense of San Francisco.
Supervisor Uhl moved that the Clerk write to the Civilian Defense
Council and to the Controller, calling to their attention the fact that
the emergency powers under Section 25 of the Charter, in the Board's
opinion, do not override Civil Service provisions of the Charter, and
suggest they be guided accordingly; also, that a courteous letter be
written to the members of the Civilian Defense Council and to the
Controller, and that their attention be called to the fact that all em-
ployees paid directly or indirectly out of City moneys must be Civil
Service employees, and that a copy of the list of Civilian Defense
Council employees presented by Supervisor MacPhee be sent to the
Controller.
Motion carried.
Called Out from Committee
Supervisor Mead after calling attention to Resolution presented to
the Board by the San Francisco Building and Construction Trades
Council, requesting an investigation of moneys expended by the Chamber
of Commerce from Publicity and Advertising Fund and referred on
October 16, 1941, to the joint Committee on Finance and Public Utilities,

contained in the communication, and urged that serious consideration
be given thereto.
Mrs. H. A. Kemp, President of the Women's Welfare League, also
explained to the Board the prevailing situation.
Whereupon. Supervisor MacPhee moved that the Board of Supervisors
go on record in a letter to the Mayor and the Civilian Defense Council
to the effect that the Board recommends and requests that they give
consideration to the employment of additional personnel for adequate
inspection of food coming into the City and County of San Francisco.
Supervisor O'Gara. as an amendment to the foregoing motion, moved
that the matter be referred to the Health Committee for hearing, at
which time representatives of the Director of Public Health, the State
Department of Health, and the Pure Foods and Drugs Division of the
Department of Agriculture may be present to tell the Committee what

SPECIAL ORDER— 3:00 P. M.
Consideration of Resolution presented to the Board by the San Fran-
cisco Building and Construction Trades Council calling for an investi-
gation of moneys expended by the Chamber of Commerce from the
Publicity and Advertising Fund, referred to joint Committee on Finance
and Public Utilities on October 20, 1941, and called out of said Com-
mittee by Supervisor Mead on January 19, 1942.
Rereference to Committee
Supervisor Mead reported that he had called the matter of con-
sideration of expenditure of funds allocated to the San Francisco
Chamber of Commerce, from the Publicity and Advertising Fund, as
requested in Resolution adopted by the San Francisco Building and
Construction Trades Council, out from Joint Finance and Public
Utilities Committee, at the request of the San Francisco Building
and Trades Council. The matter had been in Committee since October
20, 1941, and the Committee had been unable to obtain sufficient in-
formation regai'ding the Chamber's expenditures to enable it to make
any satisfactory investigation. Since the personnel of the Joint Com-
mittee has now been changed, he. Supervisor Mead, believed it might
be advisable to refer the matter back to that Joint Committee, unless
the Board desired to hear the matter, sitting as a Committee of the
Whole. However, he would l)e willing to hear from representatives of
the Chamber of Commerce and the Building and Construction Trades
Council as to what they have in mind.
Whereupon, Supervisor Green moved the privilege of the floor for
Mr. Will Merryman, of the Chamber of Commerce.
Supervisor Mead, thereupon, announced that he would not object to
the privilege of the floor for Mr. Merryman if it would be agreed that a
representative of the Building and Construction Trades Council would
be accorded the same privilege. However, unless there is further data
and more complete information than has been presented, it would be
an idle gesture for the Board to hear the matter, and he would move
that unless there is new evidence that has not heretofore been pre-
sented, the matter be re-referred to the Joint Committee on Finance and
Public Utilities.
Supervisor Uhl announced that he would second the motion, with
the understanding that the matter comes to the Joint Committee as an
entirely new matter, and will be given a full hearing.
No objection, and matter referred to Joint Committee on Finance and
Public Utilities.
Mayor's Annual Message
His Honor, Mayor Angelo J. Rossi, appeared before the Board of
Supervisors, presented and read his Annual Message, as follows:
MONDAY, JANUARY 26. 1942 107
OFFICE OF THE MAYOR
San Francisco
January 26, 1942.
The Honorable
The Board of Supervisors
City Hall
San Francisco
Gentlemen :
It is my duty under Section 25 of the Charter to communicate to
your honorable Board a general statement of the condition of the
affairs of the City and County, and recommend the adoption of such
measures as I may deem expedient and proper.
This year's message bears triple significance, because:
1st — On January 8th of 1941 I concluded my tenth year as Mayor
of this great city.
2nd — On January 8th of this year we had been operating under
under our present Charter for 10 years.
3rd — On January 8th of this year we welcomed four of you gentle-
men, newly elected Supervisors, into the official family of the
City and County.
During the year just past the security of this nation and of all the
nations of the civilized world has been challenged. Our liberty and our
safety were shamefully attacked by a dastardly foe on that fateful
day at Pearl Harbor. At present nothing seems more important than the
adequate protection of the lives and properties of the people of San
Francisco.
There is, then, the problem of most immediate importance, namely,
Civilian Defense.
All necessary steps have been taken for the protection of the people
of San Francisco.
On January 4, 1941, I appointed the San Francisco Civil Defense
Council under the able chairmanship of Mr. Frederick J. Koster. Mr.
Stuart R. Ward acted as Executive Vice-Chairman. The purposes of the
Council were to prepare and submit to me a plan for the civilian defense
of San Francisco, and to cooperate with the state and national agencies
in this respect.
On February 10, 1941, I issued a Proclamation which reads as follows:
"Proclamation by Angelo J. Rossi"
"Under Date of February 10, 1941"
"Whereas, The fate of those nations whose citizens failed
to make adequate preparation against aerial bombardment and
other forms of military attack is now too well known to all, and
"Whereas, Such hazards have now, unhappily, been added
to the list of possible contingencies which may have to be
faced by the citizens of this country, and
"Whereas, It is universally recognized that the responsibility
for the military and naval and aerial defense of our people rests
exclusively in the hands of those divisions of the Federal Gov-
ernment established for that purpose, but that, as has been
found elsewhere, the proper and effective coordination of all
civilian activities by civilian leaders has been found to be of
paramount importance, and
"Whereas, I believe it to be of the utmost importance that the
citizens of the City and County of San Francisco shall in an
orderly and efficient manner prepare comprehensive and intelli-
gently coordinated civilian defense plans for our city which
shall embrace all departments of the City and County of San
Francisco, the American Red Cross, the labor organizations.
108 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
the utilities, the Boy Scouts, the American Legion, the Chamber
of Commerce, and all other citizens' groups of our city, and
"Whereas, On January 4, 1941, I appointed the citizens named
below to constitute the San Francisco Civil Defense Council
with the following general objectives:
1. To fully and frankly face, without exaggeration, present
dangers, and to educate and organize our citizenry as to the
immediate necessity of effective team-work for the protection
of life and property in the event of either military attack
or invasion or a catastrophe caused by an act of God.
2. And, to more effectively carry out the authority vested in me
under Section 25 of our City and County Charter, actively to
cooperate with and to supplement such authoritative national
and state agencies as may have been, or may be, created to
coordinate civic defense.
"Now, Therefore, I, Angelo J. Rossi, Mayor of the City and
County of San Francisco, do hereby urge all officials and citizens
of San Francisco to accord to the San Francisco Civil Defense
Council every assistance and cooperation in speedily accom-
plishing the tremendous task before them.
"Members of the San Francisco Civil Defense Council are
as follows: Mr. Frederick J. Koster, Chairman, Mr. Stuart R.
Ward, Executive Vice-Chairman, Mr. Frank N. Belgrano, Jr.,
Mr. Thomas Larke, Jr., Mr. Max P. Lilienthal, Mr. Clay Miller,
Col. Roy C. Ward, Senator Jack Shelley."
Soon thereafter the Council was enlarged to include Mr. Theodore J.
Roche, Charles R. Page, Florence M. McAuliffe, Charles R. Blyth,
Col. Allen G. Wright, Lyle Brown, Dr. Edmund Butler, John R. Cahill.
A. T. Mercier, John D. McKown, William H. Smith and Harry Ivory.
The Council applied itself immediately to extensive research so that
the civilian defense of San Francisco could be based on the hard-won
experience of other countries which had been under military attack.
Several committees were appointed, and a great number of men with
technical knowledge of the various subjects gave freely of their time
and knowledge in a fine spirit of public welfare.
On May 20, 1941, by Executive Order, the President of the United
States established the Office of Civilian Defense, and appointed Mayor
Fiorello LaGuardia as its Director. By this time the work of the San
Francisco Civil Defense Council was well under way.
On July 24, 1941, by order of Mayor LaGuardia, I was named United
States Director of Civilian Defense for San Francisco and Coordinator
for the San Francisco Metropolitan Area.
Because of his strenuous duties with the American Red Cross, Mr.
Koster felt it necessary to offer his resignation from the Defense Council.
He was succeeded by Mr. Charles R. Page, who was most capably as-
sisted by Mr. Jack H. Helms as Executive Secretary. Shortly there-
after, both Mr. Page and Mr. Helms were asked by the Federal Govern-
ment to serve in the Regional Office of Civilian Defense.
Mr. Theodore J. Roche, who had been active in the Council as Chair-
man of the Police Committee, was then appointed Chairman of the
Defense Council, and Mr. Joseph A. Murphy was requested to serve as
Executive Officer. Under the Chairmanship of Mr. Roche, the Report of
the Civil Defense Council was completed and placed in mv hands on
August 18, 1941.
This report is the most comprehensive and constructive document
ever presented to me. It is impossil)le for me to compliment too highly
the members of the Defense Council and the various members of the
committees. They turned out a real job.
Soon requests for copies of this Report were being received from
all parts of the Nation.
MONDAY, JANUARY 26. 1942 109
San Francisco's plan became the model for many cities throughout
the land.
Then came the problem of implementation. Under the plan the first
step was the recruiting of personnel. An enrollment day was publicized.
The Council and my office used every available means to interest our
public. We met with little response. Our people did not enroll. They
felt that "it couldn't happen here." We were alarmists!
Certain groups opposed the allocation of funds for purchasing the
necessary materials and supplies to carry out the purpose of this peace-
time planning committee. In spite of this, the Council carried on. It
was operated on a skeleton basis. The actual implementation of the
plan was impossible to achieve. The public was apathetic. Only 3,600
people had enrolled, and we required over 50,000.
Then came the shameful and dastardly attack on Pearl Harbor! Over
night the complacency of peace was replaced by the hysteria of war.
Recognizing the gravity of the situation, all department heads of
city government were summoned to the office of the Mayor on the
afternoon of that fateful December 7th. The members of the Civilian
Defense Council were also present.
A peace-time plan had to be placed in operation on a war-time basis.
Had we been granted more time for accomplishment under the Civilian
Defense Plan, minor difficulties and opinions would have been self-
erasing, but these are war times, these are days of emergency. Accom-
plishment had to out-run planning and out-distance wishes. In view of
these facts I, on that day, issued the following proclamation:
"Proclamation by Mayor Angelo J. Rossi
"December 7, 1941.
"Whereas the Japanese Government has attacked the City of

Immediately following this declaration of emergency, the tempo of
activity in Civilian Defense was speeded up. The loyal and patriotic
citizens of San Francisco, brought to the grim realization that it was
truly an international emergency, began in increasing numbers to
offer their services. Whereas, only 3,600 had registered up to the
morning of December 7, we now have over 65,000 volunteers.
On November 24, 1941, your honorable Board passed Ordinance No.
1448 creating the San Francisco Civilian Defense Council, and appoint-
ing me the Chairman thereof. Members of the original Civil Defense
Council Planning Commission were made members of the new Civilian
Defense Council. Thus, the men who gave so graciously of their time
and energies on the Planning Commission of the original Civil Defense
Council were i-etained and are now constantly advising and guiding me
and the Co-Ordinator, Chief Dullea, while the plan is being placed in
full operation. These men, composing the present Advisory Committee,
are: John R. Cahill, Chairman; F. M. McAuliffe, Vice-Chairman; John
P. Shelley. Vice-Cbairman; Frank N. Belgrano, Charles R. Blyth, Lyle
M. Brown, Dr. Edmund Butler. Francis Carrol, Nathan Danziger, Thomas

Within less than a week after the outbreak of hostilities the Chief
of Police had, on an emergency basis, appointed an air raid warden
for every city block in San Francisco. Thus on the occasion of our
last blackout we achieved the desired result with a minimum of time
and a maximum of efficiency. The Air Raid Warden Service has been
expanded so that we now have a trained force of 22,000 men and women
to insure complete protection of every block in the city.
Jackson D. Baker, the Chief Air Raid Warden, and Eugene T. Brod-
erick, the Assistant Chief Air Raid Warden, as well as battalion and
company air raid wardens have been doing a splendid job. Training and
assignment of air raid wardens was completed as of January 10, and
a completely trained and organized service is in operation at this very
moment.
The post air raid wardens were trained by selected men and officers
who, in turn, received their instruction from the United States Army.
The intensive three day training course conducted by the Army for
their benefit was incidentally the first course of Its kind to be held
in the country and thus a recognition of the progress already made
under our Civilian Defense plan.
Training of auxiliary policemen, under the leadership of Deputy
Chief Michael Riordan, has been under way since January 10 and shortly
will be completed. The Police Department has been provided with all
the necessary blackout equipment, materials and equipment for registra-
tion and identification, and all other things necessary for the proper
operation of that department under any circumstances.
Fire protection, highly important in these days of ruthless aerial
attack is in the competent hands of Chief Engineer Charles J. Brennan
of the San Francisco Fire Department and Assistant Chief Albert
Sullivan, the Chief's aide. Within \'our hours after the first word was
received of the attack on Hawaii, our Fire Department was completely
reorganized on an emergency basis. At that time they were capable
of handling without undue stress five major four-alarm conflagrations
at one time. Since then, the personnel has been augmented by the
addition of 75 firemen, six lieutenants and six captains. There is at
the present time a minimum of 12,000 auxiliary fire fighters being or-
ganized and trained to augment our regular fire-fighting forc'e.
Chairs, bedding, blankets, etc., have been purchased for fire houses.
Huge important reference maps have been provided. Life jackets have
been purchased for fire boat crews, a total of $3,000 has been authorized
for emergency supplies and materials' $61,000 has been provided for
the purchase of additional fire equipment recommended by the ChieT
of the Department. Protective measures for all vulnerable reservoirs,
pipe lines, etc. have been taken. To implement these added forces I
have already approved the securing of 156 additional water pumping
units with necessary accessories so that every section of the city will
have greatly augmented fire protection. All the materials and equip-
ment necessary for the registration and training of auxiliary firemen
have been provided. Already thousands of the first groups of volunteers
have been trained and new thousands are being trained at this moment.
The whole-hearted manner in which these volunteers have cooperated
should be a source of joy to every San Franciscan. These men are
being grounded in the common sense rules and practices which have
made our regular firemen so capable in preventing the destruction
112 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
of property, no matter from what source the danger comes. The Fire
Committee of the Council, the Chairman of wliich is Mr. Robert Levison,
has been invaluable in this regard.
Your Depai'tment of Public Health, under the leadership of Dr. J. C.
Geiger, has already organized all city facilities for caring for emer-
gency health and accident service of whatever magnitude. There has
been authorized an additional total expenditure of $48,000 to bring
this department up to full requirements and to provide emergency
first aid and dressing stations in addition to the regular emergency
hospitals. All the equipment and material necessary thereto has already
been provided. Through Mr. William V. C. Ruxton of the British Amer-
ican Ambulance Corps, we have acquired three ambulances and one
mobile food serving unit at no cost to the city.
Dr. J. C. Geiger, chief of your health service, has efficiently organized
every city facility for caring for emergency health and accident service
of whatever magnitude. There are approximately twenty-eight hos-
pitals with new, added first aid dressing stations. This is in addition
to regular emergency hospitals, of which there are six. All hospital
service in the city has been organized to take care of added emer-
gency use. Present occpancy has been increased by more than a thou-
sand beds. Side-by-side with this service is the efficient and highly or-
ganized work of the Disaster Relief Committee of the American Red
Cross, which in itself is an integral part of the San Francisco Civilian
Defense Council so ably represented by Mr. Thomas Larke, Jr., chairman
of the Disaster Relief Committee. Under Mr. Larke's direction, before
nightfall of Decemlier 7th, twelve disaster relief stations had been
set up in all parts of the city, capable of handling 10,000 emergency
cases should such a blow have befallen the city. Now twenty-seven
locations are ready with staffs, ambulances and drugs. This is truly
remarkable.
The Department of Public Works, another one of the operations com-
mittees of the Civilian Defense Council, has been fully organized and
over 200 trained key men in gas, electricity, telephone and sewer
repair have been assigned stations in twenty-two locations about the
city. All the necessary tools and equipment for emergency utility
repairs are kept in fire houses. Demolition crews provided by organized
labor in San Francisco have been appointed and assigned to these
various stations to insure a sufficient number of skilled men being on
duty at all times.
In addition to the sirens originally purchased for air raid alarm
service, one siren for every square mile of territory is contemplated.
This means twenty-six in addition to the original eleven. Eighteen of
these have already been installed and the others have been ordered.
When this installation is completed we will have as nearly perfect an
air raid alarm system as is possible.
All emergency vehicles, under a recently adopted ordinance regu-
lating the type of vehicle allowed to operate during a blackout, have
been equipped with blackout lights.
Ample protection has been thrown about the water system and ad-
ditional pumping equipment installed where needed to insure extra
safety of supply. Protection of the vast and important Hetch Hetchy
system from O'Shaughnessy Dam to San Francisco has been created
through armed civilian deputies which until i-ecently were augmented
by United States Army personnel.
In keeping with the original plans, a special Air Raid Sheltei'
Committee under Mr. John Cahill, who is also Chairman of the Advisory
Board of the San Francisco Civilian Defense Council, has, with the
assistance of competent architects and engineers who volunteered their
services, selected more than 150 buildings within the business area
where citizens may take shelter should an air laid alarm find them
away from home.
A Blackout Precautions Committee, under the Chairmanship of Mr.
MONDAY, JANUARY 26. 1942 113
Lestei" Goodman, has been gniding the people of San Francisco in the
proper knowledge of what materials to use, what materials are avail-
able, and the best methods for making their homes and places of business
ready for a blackout. In the firm belief that every service, no matter
how remote the possibility of its use, should be prepared for the safety
of the people of San Francisco, we stand ready if the military authorities
so decree to move to points of greater safety within or without the
confines of the city those portions of our population which might be in
danger. This evacuation service ably headed by Mr. Max P. Lilienthal,
has prepared a workable efficient system that can be put into operation
with a minimum of time and trouble. I must repeat, however, that
this is a standby service which will not be put into operation unless
we are ordered to do so by the proper military authorities.
The focal point of all civilian defense is the communications center
in the City Hall. All our ordinary types of communications, such as
central fire alarm system, short wave radio stations and equipment,
state and local teletype, have been adequately protected. The com-
munications center in the City Hall represents the concentration of all
civilian defense activities.
On the alert signal the volunteer staff of telephonists who operate
the battery of forty telephones for the use of post, sector, and battalion
air raid wardens, immediately respond. A corps of radio patrol police
officers are directed to respond to the alarm signal also. These men man
the telephones until such lime as those volunteers who may be delayed
arrive on the scene. On the alert signal all the chiefs of the operating
divisions for civilian defense also report to the communications center:
the Mayor, the Director of Civilian Defense, the Chief of Police, the
Chief of the Fire Department, the Chief Administrative Officer, the
Director of Public Health, the Director of Public Works, the Chief of
the Department of Electricity and Public Utility representatives; all
these respond so that they are in a position to receive reports coming
from the various sections of the citj^ through the air raid wardens
and then they may order the necessary equipment and personnel to
the scene of any incident.
To go into greater detail concerning the operation of this communi-
cations system would require too much space. The work of the Central
Volunteer Office, under the leadership of Mr. Francis Carrol, has been
moving along most rapidly and at the present time classifying of all
volunteers is practically completed. Plans for transportation under
ordinary and emergency conditions have been studied by the Public
Transportation Service and much valuable information has been offered
by that service.
The morale of our citizens, the way in which we act in civic unison,
and the manner in which we fit ourselves for the task of meeting any
emergency situation, is the problem being most eflficiently handled by the
Morale Service under Mr. Florence McAuliffe. All representative San
Francisco groups have been enlisted to aid in this service and they, too,
are doing a splendid job.
Public Information and Instruction Service, headed by Mr. Nathan
Danziger, a volunteer, has been functioning smoothly and efficiently
so that the people of our city may keep abreast of civilian defense
activities through the aid of the press and the radio.
In addition to the work already completed, as I have outlined it, many
others have been working unceasingly and unselfishly to carry out the
plans of the Civilian Defense Council. To mention one to the exclusion
of others would be unfair. However this phase of this report would not
be complete, and I would indeed be remiss in my duties as Mayor if
I failed to make particular mention of the splendid services rendered
by the multitude of patriotic women of San Francisco, through their
various organizations, whose devotion to the City and its civilian de-
fense and whose unstinted and untiring efforts and cooperation have
done so much to bring the Civilian Defense of San Francisco to its
114 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
present state of excellency. All In all. we must remember that plans
mean nothing without the man-power and will to carry them out. There-
fore, at this time, I wish to pay special tribute to those loyal San
Franciscans who have volunteered for work in civilian defense. With-
out them, the plan could not operate. These other people, these thousands
of San Franciscans so willing, so full of the zeal and patriotism that
we, as Americans, know and love; these people form the backbone of
our whole civilian defense organization.
Naturally a program of this sort requires the expenditure of substan-
tial sums of money. To date we have allocated over $332,000 for Civilian
Defense purposes. Neither San Francisco nor any other of the target
cities can be expected to finance a complete defense setup.
Our finances are limited. Therefore I have appealed to the Federal
and State governments for assistance. Unless we receive money or
equipment from either or both of these sources our defense program
will not be as complete as it should be.
So, though rather lengthy, this Civilian Defense report, it seems to
me, shows that though civilian defense is something new to us, yet so
is total war: It shows that just as our Armed Forces are mobilized and
ready to protect us from a common enemy, that we stand by them as a
second line of defense, willing to help them protect us.
Traffic and Transportation
Section 25 of the Charter provides that the Mayor shall coordinate
and enforce cooperation between all departments of the City and County.
The problems of traffic and transportation come under this mandate,
because many of the departments of the City and County are involved
therein.
San Francisco, like all other progressive American cities, has a traffic
and transportation problem. Of this I am aware. I tried on many occa-
sions to start the machinery going on a solution of these problems.
But the inability of the various groups concerned to agree upon a unified
plan has nullified every previous effort of my administration to accom-
plish anything in this respect.
Each time in the past that I have made an attempt or initiated a
move looking toward the alleviation of our traffic and transportation
prol)lems, apposition has appeared immediately from one source or
another with the result that every one of these attempts has been
blocked.
In 1939. a movement was started to employ Charles H. Purcell, to
prepai-e plans looking to the solution of the traffic and transit prob-
lems. The Chamber of Commerce and other civic organizations, as well
as the press, actively supported this plan. After the proposed contract
with Mr. Purcell had been approved by the Board of Supervisors, and
$110,000 had been appropriated for Mr. Purcell's salary, it became
necessary to carry litigation to the State Supreme Court in order to
determine whether the city had the right to enter into this contract.
It was not until March 1941, that the Supreme Court decided in favor
of the city.
Although Mr. Purcell had indicated his willingness to undertake this
work, and such willingness was apparent throughout the protracted
negotiations, less than a week after the decision of the Supreme Court
charing the way for Mi-. Purcell's appointment l)y the city, I received
a telegram from him stating that for reasons of a personal nature he
found it impossible to enter into a contract with the city of San Fran-
cisco.
Mr. Purcell's exit from the scene left us exactly where we had started
in January of 1939. Even though Mr. Purcell was unable to accept the
employment I felt that because of the preponderance of opinion through-
out the city that Mr. Purcell was best fitted for this work, his recom-
mendation of a fii-m, in lieu of his own services, would be the next best
bet. It was necessary for me to be in Washington, D. C, on the Hetch
MONDAY, JANUARY 2(J, 1942 115
Hetchy power matter during most of May, 1941. Before I left San Fran-
cisco I communicated with Mr. Purcell asking him to make a recom-
mendation of the person or firm wlaich in liis opinion was most quali-
fied to undertake tlie solution of the traffic and transportation problems
in San Francisco. On May 20, 1941, at Washington, D. C, I received
the following telegram from Mr. Purcell: "Dear Mayor: Reply to a
request through your secretary for a suggestion as to experienced traf-
fic consultants has been delayed until I could secure more information.
Have done my best to assist you but the only firm dealing with such
problems of which I have knowledge is Madigan-Hyland of New York,
who have had considerable experience in freeways and parkways. Most
of this work has been accomplished for the New York Park Commis-
sion. Robert Moses of New York is head of that commission and is fa-
miliar with the experience and responsil)ility of Madigan-Hyland. I
am not familiar with their experience on general traffic problems and
knowledge of streetcar traflSc. Would suggest that you make an appoint-
ment with Thomas H. MacDonald, U. S. Commissioner of Public Roads,
New Willard Building, Washington, D. C, requesting his assistance,
as MacDonald has wide knowledge of city traffic problems and engineers
dealing with these problems. Kindest regards, C. H. Purcell."
Following Mr. Purcell's suggestion I got in touch with Mr. MacDonald
and discussed with him the qualifications of the firm of Madigan-Hy-
land. Mr. MacDonald gave this firm the highest recommendation. In
fact, the reputation of this firm was so high that Mr. Madigan had been
drafted by the Federal Government as a dollar-a-year man and was at
that time engaged in laying out bases in Newfoundland and the Canal
Zone. Later, in New York, I contacted Mayor La Guardia, who was en-
thusiastic in his praise of Madigan-Hyland and the work which they
have performed for New York. Later I met Mr. Madigan and discussed
with him briefly San Francisco's traffic and transportation problem.
He stated that he was not unfamiliar with San Francisco, having been
here and surveyed the Oakland-Bay Bridge for the underwriters who
purchased the Bay Bridge bonds from the R. F. C.
During our original discussion Mr. Madigan stated that because of
his connection with the Government the ethics of his profession forbade
him taking any Government contract. That being the case, he was will-
ing to undertake the solution of San Francisco's traffic problems on a
practically cost basis in order to keep his key staff men occupied. At
his own expense Mr. Madigan and his chief designer came to San Fran-
cisco and personally looked over the city and held conferences with
me, other city officials, and with civic organizations.
On July 10, 1941, Madigan-Hyland forwarded to me a proposal for
their employment as consulting engineers on the transportation prob-
lem of San Francisco. This proposal was in the form of a contract,
under which the consulting engineers agreed to "perform all the neces-
sary services provided under this contract for the following described
projects: The preparation of development studies, preliminary designs,
drawings and cost estimates for a solution of mass transportation and
vehicular traffic problems in and about the City and County of San
Francisco. It will be the aim of such solution to relieve the existing
congested conditions and to produce an ample free-flowing system which
will serve the City and County and will meet the needs of both vehicular
and mass transportation." This work was to be completed within a
year from date of beginning, but was to be extended to eighteen months,
in case that became necessary. For this work the consulting engineer
asked a fixed fee of $65,000, this fee to cover the compensation of their
principals, supervisory personnel, and their home office expense. In
addition to this fixed fee Madigan-Hyland were to be reimbursed for
the expenses of draftsmen and stenographic services required in San
Francisco, rental of offices here, and other miscellaneous oflSce expenses
which, the firm guaranteed, would not exceed in total $35,480. This
would make the total cost of the services of Madigan-Hyland $100,480.
This was several thousand dollars less than the salary cost of Mr.
116 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
Purcell under the contract proposed for him and supported by so many
civic organizations.
But no sooner had it become known that Madigan-Hyland had sub-
mitted a proposal to me, that a most remarkable thing happened. The
Chamber of Commerce, the Downtown Association, and certain of the
press which had been so favorable toward, and had boosted so hard for,
Mr. Purcell's employment, objected just as vociferously to the employ-
ment of Madigan-Hyland as they had plugged for the employment of
Charles H. Purcell. In a letter to me, under date of August 4, 1941, the
Chamber of Commerce stated that although the Chamber previously
strongly advocated the employment of Charles H. Purcell for the pur-
pose of making studies and recommendations, similar to those now
proposed to be done by Madigan-Hyland, changed conditions which have
arisen since the Chamber's first recommendation now compel the Cham-
ber to oppose the employment of an independent consultant exclusively
for the making of recommendations in connection with traffic and
transit. I am not the only one who was confused by this changed atti-
tude on the part of the Chamber. The Committee on Traffic of the 1941
Grand .Jury expressed themselves in this manner — and I quote directly
from their report: "This committee is unable to comprehend this
about-face. If it was proper and practical to employ Mr. Purcell two
years ago, why is it not proper and practical to employ some other
engineer or engineers to do the same job now?"
Some of the objection to the Madigan-Hyland proposal was on the
ground that it would interfere with, or would duplicate in part, a Master
Plan for San Francisco. There would be ho such conflict or duplication.
It is estimated conservatively that a Master Plan cannot be produced
under three years by an advisory commission as provided in the Charter.
Traffic and transportation are integral parts of a Master Plan; we can-
not wait three or more years for a move toward the solution of these
two vital problems. San Francisco has been compared to New York in-
sofai' as its problems of ingress and egress for a commuting population
are concei'ned. as well as the traffic problem within its own borders.
The firm of Madigan-Hyland has had extensive experience in and about
the City of New York and has made an enviable reputation in the work
they have done in relieving traffic congestion and in laying out trans-
portation I'outes and facilities. They also have been engaged by other
cities including Los Angeles.
On July 22, 1941, I appointed the following committee to review the
Madigan-Hyland proposal: Thomas A. Brooks, Chief Administrative
Officer, Chairman; Harold J. Boyd, Controller; John J. O'Toole, City
Attorney; Edward G. Cahill, Manager of Utilities; Warren Shannon,
President, Board of Supervisors; Charles W. Dullea, Chief of Police;
Mr. William P. Wobber, President, Police Commission; Lewis F. Bying-
ton, President of the Public Utilities Commission; W. W. Chapin, Pres-
ident of City Planning Commission.
This Committee has heard testimony from various interested parties,
not the least of which were members of the City Planning Commission.
The City Planning Commission definitely is on record that the employ-
ment of Madigan-Hyland would not interfere in any way with their
prosecution of the Master Plan under the recently employed Planning
Consultant, Mr. Ernest P. Goodrich of New York. After investigating
this matter thoroughly, this Committee recently went on record in favor
of recommending to the Loard of Supervisors that the Mayor be author-
ized to negotiate a contract with the firm of Madigan-Hyland for the
solution of the mass transportation and vehicular traffic problems in
and aI)out the City and County of San Francisco. This contract would
be submitted first to the above-mentioned committee and. if approved
by them, it would be submitted to your honorable Board for tinal ap-
proval.
Under Section 25 of the Charter, I recommend this employment.
I must reiterate that prior to my tiip to Washington I did not know
MONDAY, JANUARY 26. 1942 117
Mr. Madigan or any person in his organization; they were recommended
to me first by Charles H. Purcell and subsequently by Mr. MacDonald
of the Bureau of Roads in Washington, D. C, and also by Mayor La
Guardia of New York. While in New York I spent over three hours in
company with our Manager of Utilities, driving over the various projects
successfully completed by Madigan-Hyland, such as the Belt Parkways
System, the Henry Hudson Parkway, the Marine Parkway, Westside
Improvement, and other projects, the details of which are in my office
and may be inspected by any interested party. By the employment of
this firm, San Francisco immediately would have the benefit of all the
preliminary survey and studies, as well as the matured experience of
this firm. It seems to me that it is only good business to take advantage
of such experience, especially when that experience, although gained
at the expense of other cities, applies so directly to the problems con-
fronting San Francisco.
I wish to call attention again to the fact that the contract proposed
by Madigan-Hyland provides for the preparation of development studies,
preliminary designs, drawings and cost estimates : this is very important
because when the defense program is over, it is anticipated that the
Federal Government will embark upon a broad program of public
works. Therefore, eA^en though all of the recommendations of Madigan-
Hyland may not have been possible of execution before the end of the
defense program, nevertheless San Francisco will have the drawings
and cost estimates and all plans up to date and ready to submit to the
Federal Works Agency, which already has organized the Public Work
Reserve, to "avert the inevitable shock at the conclusion of the emer-
gency program due to rearmament."
There are other aspects of the traffic and transportation problem
which I mention now, as evidence that my administration has not been
guilty of indifference in this regard. I refer to the problem of unifi-
cation of the two street railway systems. It has been realized that
better service to the public could be accomplished through such unifi-
cation, which would permit a more effective routing and comprehensive
transfer privilege. In 193S, the Manager of Utilities was directed to
negotiate with the private company for the acquisition of their property.
He succeeded in obtaining an offer to sell for the sum of $12,500,000
free of del)t. Additional sums needed for rehabilitation and changes
brought the total capital requirements up to $24,480,000. A bond propo-
sition to cover this was voted on in September, 1938 and was de-
cisively defeated.
In 1936, two years earlier still, the Public Utilities Commission sub-
mitted a Rapid Transit Plan with subways on Market, Mission, and
Geary Streets. After much public del)ate, a bond proposition to finance
the plan was placed on the ballot in November of 1937 and it, too, was
decisively defeated. As a result of the action of the voters, San Fran-
cisco street car patrons are deprived of the advantages of universal
transfer and a majority of those patrons are forced to pay seven cents
per ride instead of the five cent fare on the Municipal Railway.
In concluding my comments upon the traffic and transportation mess
in San Francisco, I cannot but leave this thought with those who con-
sistently wrangle and quarrel with those ideas advanced by anyone but
themselves — and I quote from Butler's effusion as follows: "Those who
play a game of state and only cavil in debate, although there's nothing
lost or won, the public business is undone; which still the longer 'tis in
doing, becomes the surer way to ruin."
Industrial Problems
In my message to your honorable Board last year I made reference
to the Bay area's participation in a gigantic National Defense move-
ment. It would be superfluous for me to give a detailed report concern-
ing the tremendous increase in industrial activity resulting in increased
payroll, as a result of the defense movement. All San Franciscans are
keenly aware of this. However, I cannot allow this opportunity to pass
118 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
without ret'erring to the relationships between employer and employee.
As Chief Executive of this City and County, it is my sworn duty to see
that our laws are enforced. As Chief Executive I consider it to be my
duty also to intercede with both employer and employee in an effort
to bring the parties together when they have arrived at an apparent
impasse. This has been my policy during my entire administration as
Mayor of San Francisco. On many occasions after negotiations had
been broken off, I have appealed to the parties concerned. They have
met in my office and often, as a i-esult of such meetings, their pi'oblems
have been solved.
I wish to state most definitely that I, as Mayor, can neither force
the employee to work, nor can I force the employer to accept a Union
proposal. As I am the Mayor of all the people of San Francisco, I can-
not in good faith favor one side or the other in a controversy. In this
time of grave emergency, I know that conservative labor leaders are
genuinely trying to keep the machinei-y of industry turning without
interruption. I know that the employers of San Francisco liave recog-
nized the principles of collective bargaining. Yet, I here and now re-
iterate a statement made by me in the Proclamation issued December
7, 1941:
"I hereby demand that both employer and employee forthwith termi-
nate their existing differences, during the present emergency and end
all disputes so that San Francisco may present a united front and so
that every citizen may work for the one end — the safety of our country."
I know that many efforts have been made to do this, but, as yet, not
all of these efforts have been successful. Once again, I urge that these
differences be settled immediately. This would be the greatest patriotic
service these groups could render at this time.
Harbor Control
In previous years' messages I have discussed the matter of Harbor
Control at some length. A sincere effort has been made arid I shall
continue to work with our legislators and authorities from other parts
of the State to secure for San Francisco the same privileges enjoyed
by the rest of California; namely, the right to control and administer
our own harbor. San Francisco's front door could, and should be,
our greatest asset.
Hospitality House
Hospitality House, operated by the San Francisco Citizens' Hospitality
Committee for Service Men, was opened on August 9, with a huge
celebration held in the Civic Auditorium. Fourteen stars of the movie
colony traveled to San Francisco to assist the committee in the opening.
The Hospitality House idea first was formulated by the Central Council
of Civic Clubs, in a resolution introduced at the Board of Supervisors
in November, 1940, known as Resolution No. 1455. The Resolution was
passed by the Board unanimously and I was asked to select a citizens'
committee known as the San Francisco Citizens' Hospitality Committee
for Service Men. This committee is made up of representatives of all
the major organizations of San Francisco — civic, religious, veteran and
fraternal groups making up a cross-section of San Francisco citizens.
It was recognized by all authorities that the civilian population adjacent
to large Ai'my and Navy stations would have many problems on their
hands in taking care of the men in service of the United States while
on their leaves. From the citizens' committee was selected an Executive
Committee, headt d by Dr. Howard M. McKinley, consisting of sixty-five
members; this committee met every two weeks, with special sub-com-
mittees meeting almost daily. Dodge A. Reidy, City Architect, drew up
the plans for the building in the Civic Center, and an allotment of
$22,000 was given for material. The San Francisco Building and Con-
struction Trades Council was most generous in providing the labor
necessary for constructing the building without a cent of cost to the
city. This was a patriotic gesture on the part of Organized Labor which
the people of San Francisco will never forget.
MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942 119
Military and Naval authorities, governmental agencies and leaders of
United Service Organizations were consulted, with the idea in mind
always of "Protecting and Bolstering the Morale of our Home Front."
Dr. McKinley has since gone into the service of the Twelfth Naval
District, and Mr. Claudius A. Marckley, prominent Veteran leader,
has been selected as General Chairman.
The opening of the House was the "Go" signal for the Service men to
swarm into the building, and over 200,000 men have visited the Hos-
pitality House, using the facilities and enjoying the hospitality. The
house is open daily from twelve noon to twelve midnight. Citizens
are allowed to visit from 1:00 to 3:00 P. M. The house is provided with
reading and writing room, a well-equipped kitchen with canteen adjoin-
ing, and a large lounge for dancing. Up to date, 141 women's organi-
zations have taken part in the activities at Hospitality House, furnishing
refreshments, entertainment and dancing partners foi- the men.
The information desk, operated by three trained employees with
staggered hours from 11:00 A. M.. till 12:00 midnight, furnishes in-
formation of all kinds. "Writing material is furnished, special events
are listed each day, and many citizens call for groups of men for dinners
and entertainment or rides about the city.
During Thanksgiving, Christmas and the New Year's Holiday Season
over 5,000 dinner invitations were extended to service men by citizens
who registered their invitations at the Hospitality House. Many letters
have been received by the secretary thanking Hospitality House for the
fine young men who were able to visit the private homes of the city.
Each man who visits the Hospitality House is asked to register and
give the name of his closest relative. Shortly thereafter I sign a letter
to this relative stating that the people of San Francisco had the
pleasure of entertaining the young man. The thousands of letters of
appreciation I have received from mothers and fathers residing in every
section of the country are real testimony for the job we are doing.
The 49-mile automobile drive was instituted under the chairmanship
of William L. Hughson, and thousands of San Franciscans have fur-
nished their cars for sight-seeing about the city on Sundays from 1 to 5.
During the year, fourteen large dances were held at Aquatic Park
Casino every first and third Wednesday of the month. Dancing partners
were provided by the women's organizations of the city. From 1500 to
2000 men attended the dances. Since Aquatic Park Casino is now
occupied by Army personnel, the dances will be held at the Veterans
Building, War Memorial. Young ladies are invited and chaperoned by
the women's groups, who also take part in hostessing at the Hospitality
House.
We San Franciscans have once again proven to the nation that ours
is truly a city with a heart, the city of hospitality.
Ten-Year Review
Although the major interest during the past few weeks has been the
perfection of civilian defense, nonetheless the normal functions of
govei-nment have and must continue.
In view of this fact. I deem it advisable to comment briefly on the
story that has been San Francisco for the ten years just past. I believe
that such an audit of our affairs will prove valuable in our discussions
relative to the future of this city. I feel sure that these comments will
he of interest to the members of the Board, as well as the public at
large.
When I assumed the responsibilities of the office of Mayor of San
Francisco, on January 8, 1931, the full force of the world-wide depression
of the '30s was just beginning to be felt. The Federal, State and local
governments were not then prepared to cope with the problem of unem-
ployment relief. The fiscal year 1931-32 was the first year in which the
City and County of San Francisco expended any large amount of funds
for the direct relief of the unemployed. Funds provided during this first
120 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
•
fiscal year of my administration for relief purposes were made up of an
appropriation of city funds of $700,000, voluntary contributions by city
employees in the amount of $321,935 and the proceeds of a bond issue
amounting to $2,500,000. Relief to the unemployed was administered
during this period through the medium of existing private welfare
agencies, whose activties generally involved no cost to the city govern-
ment for administration. Upon the entrance of the Federal Government
into the relief picture in 1933. Federal funds thereafter were granted to
the State, and through the State to cities and counties upon the condition
however, that such funds must be disbursed by the local government
and not by private agencies. This led to a Charter Amendment which
was adopted by the people in March of 1937, under which all public
assistance administered by the City and County of San Francisco was
consolidated in the present Public Welfare Department. This depart-
ment then took over the administration of all public relief activities
in San Francisco, including indigents theretofore handled by many
private relief agencies.
During the period under review, there were many liberalizations in
the various public assistance laws in California and of the Federal
subvention laws. All these liberalizations have resulted in increased
taxes to the people. In addition. San Francisco was forced to appro-
priate over $747,000 for the fiscal year 1941-42 to take care of the em-
ployable unemployed, which up to June 30. 1941 had been the responsi-
bility of the State, but which was forced upon the counties beginning
July 1, 1941 by the failure of the State to provide funds for this purpose.
As an example of the tremendous increase in the cost of humanitarian
activities over ten years, the following table is presented:
1931-32 1940-41
Total expended for charities, hospitals and
corrections $4,255,588 $12,805,412
Less State and Federal subventions 412,500 4,946.300
Net cost to San Francisco taxpayers $3,843,088 $ 7.859,112
The above shows a substantial increase in cost to the taxpayers of San
Francisco in this one activity alone.
The sudden advent of such enormous expenditures resulted in many
vexing financial problems. Rather than completely disjoint the local
economy, recourse was had in 1932-33 to another bond issue of $6,500,000
for relief purposes. Also, the city borrowed fi-om the State a total of
$1,466,552 in 1933-34 and $550,709 in 1934-35 for relief purposes. This
illustrates the lengths to which the city went in meeting its relief
problems.
We must conclude, therefore, that San Francisco performed its duty
toward "those less fortunate than ourselves" even during the darkest
days of the depression.
Despite the depression and the many problems resulting therefrom,
there has been a steady march forward during the past ten years,
which have seen many noteworthy accomplishments.
Golden Gate International Exposition
In 1939 and in 1940, San Francisco was host to the world at the Golden
Gate International Exposition on Treasure Island. This spectacle is
still so fresh in the minds of all of us that a recounting of those happy
months is unnecessary at this time. But the memory of the happy
months of this Exposition undoubtedly will linger longer in our minds
because of the grim business of war in which we are now occupied.
The site for the Exposition was granted to San Francisco by the State
in 1933 on condition that the land be used for the establishment of a
municipal airport. Because of the intention ultimately to use Treasure
Island as an airport, it was possible to obtain a P. W. A. grant for the
construction of the permanent buildings, consisting of the airport
MONDAY, JANUARY 26. 1942 121
terminal building and two hangars. The Navy has leased the Island
and under terms of the lease agreement is sponsoring a W. P. A. project
for the construction of runways for the City's second municipal airport.
Turning to matters concerning the City and County administration
exclusively, we find that we can recount many accomplishments during
the past ten years. There is time now to speak only briefly of a few
outstanding examples of progress, and those departments specifically
mentioned hereafter are not the only ones worthy of comment. Many
city departments have continued throughout the years to do a good job
unobtrusively and without fanfare, and to them I extend my apprecia-
tion. I wish to say that if they do not hear their names in this message
it is not because their good work has not been noted, but solely because
the lack of time will not allow the enumeration of the progress made
by every department of the City and County government.
Board of Supervisors
When the new Charter took effect, January 8, 1932, it involved many
changes. The number of supervisors was reduced to eleven and the
function of the Board itself was changed from a combined legislative
and administrative body to an exclusively legislative body. This in turn
delegated additional administrative duties to the Mayor. Much im-
portant legislation was passed by the Board during the past ten years.
For example: All the enabling legislation concerned with the various
W. P. A. and P. W. A. projects, legislation required to accomplish the
completion of Hetch Hetchy, completion of the War Memorial, the build-
ing and extension of San Francisco Municipal Airport, and all other
public improvements requiring action by the Board. Through the
splendid cooperation of the Board, the administration has been able to
make the enviable record which it has in the face of depression and
hardship.
Assessor
The Assessor's office has a fine record of accomplishments during
the past ten years, during which a complete modernization of office
procedure and the substitution of tabulating machinery in place of
long-hand work has enabled a decrease in the operating budget, despite
the fact that 25.000 additional parcels of land and 20,000 new buildings
have been added to the assessment roll for valuation during these ten
years.
Police Department
The Police Department has progressed with the times. A central
"Ring-In" bureau has been installed in the Northern Station ; the depart-
ment radio, teletype, and telephone exchanges in the Hall of Justice
were consolidated, and a tabulating division of I. B. M. equipment was
installed in the Hall of Justice in a room specially constructed therefor;
the fifth floor of the Hall of Justice was remodeled to include a new
"show-up" room, which is one of the finest in the United States; a
commodious filing room and a modern chemical laboratory and photo-
graph gallery also were constructed in the Hall of Justice.
In 1938 and 1939, the Accident Prevention Bureau was organized as a
separate unit of the Police Department's Traffic Bureau, whose duty
it is to cover all traffic accidents occurring in the City and County,
and to make such detailed reports on them as to enable the necessary
traflSc engineering and steps to be taken to keep traffic accidents at a
minimum within the city. Traffic fatalities during 1940-41 totaled 97
as compared with 115 in 1931-32. a reduction of 18. As an example of
the increase in the activity of the Police Department, fires attended in-
creased 4.557; the number of injured and sick persons taken to hospitals
increased 1,192; there were 349 more lost children cared for in 1940-41
than in 1931-32 and 141,912 more teletype, telegraphic and radio mes-
sages were handled than in 1931-32. There were 1,920 few^er automobiles
reported stolen in 1940-41 than in 1931-32. The value of property re-
ported stolen in 1931-32 was $572,356 and in 1940-41 was $333,595 a de-
crease of $236,961.
122 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
Fire Department
The record of the Fire Department is well known and its efficiency
is traditional. In order to keep the department up to high operating
efficiency, new equipment totalling $833,000 has been provided during the
past ten years. Three new fire houses have been built and the 1941-42
budget provides for two additional. Under the 1933 bond issue there
were installed 30.6 miles of high-pressure pipe, 373 high-pressure hy-
drants. 21 street cisterns and 3 manifolds. Fire protection was furnished
during both years at the Golden Gate International Exposition. This
at an additional cost to the taxpayers of $441,106.
Park Department
The Park Department has been one of the large recipients of the
benefits of W. P. A. projects. During the past ten years the Board of
Park Commissioners sponsored W. P. A. projects to the extent of $800,000
for sponsor's cost. The Federal Government contributed $9,500,000 for
these projects. Outstanding developments during the ten yeai's in the
parks include the following: Renewed Zoological Gardens, comprising
sixty acres, which is one of the most modern and up to date zoos in the
United States. The Aquatic Park Recreation Center, located at the foot
of Van Ness Avenue. This houses a fine Marine Museum sponsored by
Mrs. Alma Spreckels Awl and other public spirited citizens. Here are
exhibited models of ships from the square rigger to the luxury liner
of today. Aquatic Park provides meeting rooms and a spacious hall
for various recerational activities, where many thousands of service
men have been entertained. Bleachers seating 8,000 spectators were
constructed on the polo field in the Golden Gate Park Stadium. New
club houses were constructed at the Harding Park and Lincoln Park
golf courses. Improvements aggregating nearly $100,000 have been
made to the Yacht Harbor in the Marina during the past ten years, fur-
nishing facilities to berth approximately 100 additional boats which
theretofor had been forced by lack of space to berth away from San
Francisco.
The city has also contracted to pay $406,601 for the purchase of land
to extend the Yacht Harbor to the Army Transport Docks.
During the past year $25,000 was expended for the modernization of
Kezar Stadium. Other improvements include the reconstruction and re-
surfacing of the South Drive in the Park, the construction of equestrian
paths, resurfacing tennis courts, development of district recreational
areas, the development of a large recreation field near the Beach Chalet
and the construction of new fairways at Sharp's Park.
The Park Department budget estimate for 1941-42 included additional
improvements in the amount of $53,210. Recognizing the necessity for
conservation of funds for national defense purposes, the department
at the request of the Mayor, has postponed these improvements until
the end of the national emergency.
During this period the employees of the Park Department were
brought under Civil Service.
Recreation Department
The Recreation Department shows a steady growth over ten years,
with an increase from 31 to 52 supervised playgrounds, and an increase
from 19 to 30 supervised yearly schoolyards, and an increase from 0 to
34 supervised summer schoolyards. Supervised gymnasia have increased
from 7 to 14. The staff has grown from 256 to 408, and the attendance
at all i-( creation units and special programs has Increased from 4,286,820
to 6,357,008.
The 1941-42 budget includes funds for the following improvements:
Playground unit at Longfellow;
Night lighting and rehal)ilitation of Folsom Playground;
Lighting of Bernal Playground;
Night lighting at North Beach Playgi'ound;
MONDAY. JANUARY 26, 1942 123
Drainage at St. Mary's Playground;
Fence and tennis court at Visitacion Valley Playground;
Sand-l)oxes. benches, and back-stops at various other playgrounds
throughout the city.
As with the Park Department, the Recreation Commission has agreed
to postpone some of the less urgent of these improvements until after
the present emergency.
Library
With respect to the Library, five new branches have been added
during the past ten years: Anza. Visitacion Valley. Parkside. West
Portal and Bernal. The Lil)rary has built up an extensive and up to
date collection of technical books in such fields as aviation, ship-
building, chemistry, etc. on which there is now a heavy call because
of the large number of persons interested in national defense activities.
In excess of $538,000 has been provided the library since 1931-32
for new books and for rebinding. There are on hand over 532.000 books,
not counting the Phelan and Kuhl collections, and thousands of
unbound pamphlets.
During this period the employees of the Library Department were
brought under Civil Service. This leaves only two departments of
the city which are not under Civil Service — the De Young Museum
and the Palace of the Legion of Honor.
War Memorial and Opera House
The War Memorial and Opera House were completed during the
past ten years and represents a total investment of $fi.250,000. The
Opera House was opened on October 15, 1932 and the Veterans'
Building, housing the various veterans, was opened on February 1,
1933. The Art Museum on the fourth floor of the Veterans' Buildin.g
was opened on January 18, 1935. This structure has housed and
encouraged the continued existence of the San Francisco Opera Associa-
tion. It is difficult to measure the publicity San Francisco has received
by reason of the world-wide circulation of the Opera Association's
announcements of attractions.
Department of Public Works
When the new Charter took effect, January S. 1932, the Municipal
Railway, the Hetch-Hetchy project, the Water Department, Lighting
of Public Buildings and Streets, and Municipal Airport, were trans-
ferred from the Board of Public Works and placed under the Public
Utilities Commission which was created under the new Charter. The
stores, yards and repair shops were removed from the Board of Works
and placed under the supervision of the Purchaser of Supplies. The
Bureau of Accounting, formerly under the supervision of the Superin-
tendent of Accounts, was abolished and the duties performed by this
Bureau were transferred to the Purchaser of Supplies and to the
Controller.
The telephone exchange, formerly under the Board of Supervisors,
was ti'ansferred to the Board of Public Works. Since the adoption of
the New Charter, additional responsibilities have devolved upon the
Department of Public Works in the administration of the gas tax funds
from the State. San Francisco has received approximately $4,138,000
from gas tax funds for the construction and maintenance of State
highways within the county. Out of these moneys, the following major
jobs have been completed:
Nineteenth Ave. — Sloat Blvd. to Lincoln Way
Richardson Ave.
Sloat Blvd. — 39th to 44th Ave. and Skyline connection
Presidio Parkway
Fell and Polk Streets
Alemany Blvd. — Bayshore to Mission
Funston Avenue Approach

are now under way:
Nineteenth Ave. — Sloat Blvd. to Junipero Serra Blvd. — signals and
channelization
Lombard St. — Van Ness Ave. to Richardson
19th Ave. and Park-Presidio Blvd. — Lighting and traffic signals
Out of the second quarter cent gas tax, San Francisco has received
a total of $3,832,553 for the reconstruction and maintenance of major
streets within each county. Out of these funds the following major
jobs have been completed:
Army — Harrison to Potrero Avenue
Folsom — Embarcadero to Tenth Street
Franklin — Market to Bay — Relieving traffic on Van Ness Ave.

During the ten years under review 8.6 miles of reenforced concrete
sewers have been constructed. The Richmond-Sunset Sewage Disposal
Plant in Golden Gate Park, complete with connecting sewer tunnel,
has been constructed. Two sewage pumping stations, one in the Marina
District and one in the Sea Cliff District have been constructed.
The 1941-42 budget funds for the following sewer reconstruction
program :
Portion of Great Highway System
Portion of Church and Market Street System
Poition of Ingleside District System
Portion of Church and 27th Streets System
It is evident to all that a city-wide sewer reconstruction program
from a single allocation would not be feasible. The people of our
city, because of district prejudices, have voted down bond issues for
MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942 125
this purpose. Therefore, the city government has adopted the policy
of appropriating a substantial sum of money in each budget to provide
as much sewer reconstruction as is financially possible.
Department of Public Health
In the Department of Public Health new facilities provided since
1931-32 include the Health Center Building at 101 Grove Street.
At the Laguna Honda Home, a complete hospital unit of 900 beds,
with all accessories including extensive X-ray equipment, has been
provided.
At Hassler Health Home, new buildings and hospital wards increas-
ing the bed capacity from 100 to 300 for adults and the addition of a
new 50 bed capacity ward for children have been established. Modern-
ization of the entire Hassler plant, including installation of a new
X-ray laboratory and new dining rooms, has been accomplished. Land
for this institution was purchased in 1924 — 30.6 acres at a cost of
$27,250.
At San Francisco Hospital, a new Maternity Building of 230 bed
capacity has been constructed and there have been completed a new
building for psychopathic patients, modernization of the hospital, a
new laundry addition, a new diet laboratory, dining rooms for the
staff enlarged and remodeled, a new record room, new pharmacy,
new garage building, and much-needed replacements in the old
tuberculosis wing. Land for expansion of the San Francisco Hospital
was obtained in 1931 by purchase of the St. Catherine's Home property,
Potrero Avenue and 22nd Street, at a cost of $325,000.
Emergency hospitals have been modernized and have been equipped
with shock-bed warmers and resuscitators, and radios have been
installed in each hospital and ambulance.
The Alemany Emergency Hospital has been completed and opened.
A Blood Bank has been established at San Francisco Hospital,
increasing the number of blood transfusions from 40 to 170 per month.
Three generalized Health Center districts have been established.
A control system of frequent and regular laboratory analyses of
drinking water, swimming pools and water on beaches has been
inaugurated.
The tul)erculosis control program has been greatly enlarged, in-
cluding additional hospital beds, a chest clinic, and a case-finding
service.
A program for the prevention of venereal diseases was enlarged
and extended with the establishment of new diagnostic and treatment
centers.
The expanding services of the Health Department has carried with
it an in-rrease in the cost of running all institutions. The number of
employes in the Department of Public Health increased from 1,200 in
1931-32 to 1,650 in 1941-42. or an increase of 450.
A more accurate bookkeeping system has been installed in the
department, with the result that the State subsidy for tuberculosis
patients has increased from $48,000 in 1931-32 to $91,000 for 1941-42.
Income to the department from inspectional services, permits, etc.
increased from about $140,000 in 1931-32 to over $280,000 for the
present fiscal year or more than 100%.
Board of Education
The 1941-42 budget of the School Department is $12,399,000 as com-
pared with the 1931-32 budget of $9,876,255 or an increase of $2,522,800.
Approximately $14,000,000 have been expended during the past ten
years by the School Department for 22 new schools or additions and
for the construction of several units of the new Junior College. The
new buildings and their locations are as follows:

annual cost of operating the new schools which were non-existent ten
years ago is stated by the school department at $1,394,594. State sub-
ventions to the San Francisco School District are estimated at $4,635,-
325 for the fiscal year 1941-42 as compared with approximately $2,000,000
for 1931-32. This increase resulted from the Stewart-Riley legislation
in 1933 and 1935 which transferred some of the school costs, previously
borne by the counties, to the State.
The depression years also brought relief problems to the schools.
In order to safeguard the nutrition of children from low-income
families and thereby prevent the development of deficiency diseases,
free milk is given such children at the schools. During the 1940-41
school year. 636.734 free service of milk was given. In addition.
735,508 servings were given at city cost. The annual cost of providing
this free milk is about $30,000.
During 1940-41 the schools served 283,480 free lunches.
Juvenile Court
During the past ten years additional services have been added to
the program of the Juvenile Court. In 1933 the Juvenile Court assumed
the o])ligation of investigating applications for the adoption of a child
by a step-parent, reporting to the Superior Court and recommending
for or against such adoption. A))out 1935 the Juvenile Court offered
its services to the Superior Court judges in investigating any case
where a divorce was pending in order to give the .ludge the benefit of
an impartial report and recommendation as to the custody of the
children. This work is now required by law under the Court of
Conciliation Act. At the last regular session of the State Legislature,
a State law was passed requiring the probation officers to make an
MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942 127
investigation of all applications for guardianship. In order to properly
house these expanding services there was adopted in the 1941-42 budget
a sum of $67,500 for the purpose of building the court room annex,
maKing alterations to the present Detention Home building and estab-
lishing living quarters for the boys and the staff at the Log Cabin Ranch
and School in San Mateo County. This latter activity — the Boys' Ranch
School — is an outgrowth of an experiment first conducted with funds
furnished by the Rosenberg Foundation, enabling the Juvenile Court
to embark upon a program of rehabilitation of boys assigned to Court
care. Under this program the boys are sent to the Ranch School and
are trained in farming and other pursuits, allowing them the benefits
of fresh air, regular hours, and creative work. The original experiment
conducted at Gualala in Mendocino County was so successful that
upon the exhaustion of the Rosenberg Foundation funds, the City
and County of San Francisco took over the operating cost of this
venture and transferred the school from Mendocino County to a more
readily accessible spot at La Honda in San Mateo County.
Juvenile Delinquency
On February 3, 1941 the arrest of a group of youthful offenders
served to focus sharply the attention of the community on the ever
present problem of juvenile delinquency. Recognizing the public
interest which then existed, and conscious of the favorable opportunity
thus presented to secure helpful action, I recommended to the Board
of Supervisors the retention of the National Probation Association to
survey the Juvenile Court. I also called a meeting of leaders in the
field of child welfare, asked the Coordinating Council of the City and
County to advise with me, and requested the Community Chest of
San Francisco to make a community survey of the juvenile delinquency
situation and make recommendations for future action.
A report of a survey of the Juvenile Court by Mr. Francis H. Hiller,
Field Expert of the National Probation Association, was submitted in
August, 1941. This report contained twenty-two principal recommenda-
tions, each one of which has either been put into full force and effect
or is now in the process of accomplishment. Some of those in effect are:
1. The Juvenile Court has been re-organized and is now the
Children's Court, assuming the responsibility of any legal prob-
lem pertaining to children.
2. With the appointment of the Honorable Thomas M. Foley, a
full-time Judge presides over the work of the Children's Court.
3. I approved an appropriation of $67,000.00 for the purpose of
erecting a suitable courtroom to house the expanded program,
and this courtroom is now being built, also the remodeling of
the present building, allowing for additional and more adequate
office space (this work is also under construction), also the
moving from Gualala to La Honda of the Log Cabin Ranch
School for delinquent boys, and the construction of needed
buildings to house and expand the program. Plans for construc-
tion are now being developed by the Board of Public Works.
In addition, in cooperation with the Municipal Conference Committee.
I recommended an appropriation of $9,855.00 out of the Emergency
Reserve Fund to provide four additional Probation Officers, two General
Clerk-Stenographers, and one Janitor, together with necessary equip-
ment. Three of these Probation Officers have been added to the Boy
Division and one to work with neglected children. The additional
stenographers and janitor are also now employed.
When the Community Chest's report was submitted, I immediately
forwarded copies thereof to all the agencies of the City Government
which would be concerned with putting into effect the twelve recom-
mendations submitted, and asked each department to give me an
estimate of the annual cost of putting these recommendations fully into
effect. As an immediate result of the work of this Committee, there
has been a strong revival of interest in juvenile delinquency problems
128 MONDAY. JANUARY 26. 1942
in both the public and private agencies working in the cliildren's field.
Several recommendations made by the Committee are now in effect,
others are being energetically pursued. Outstanding has been the
setting up of the School Counciling Program, including two child
welfare clinics with social, psychological and psychiatric services. •
I do not intend to fall into the common error of subordinating every
consideration to war activities ))ecause I know that anyone inclined
toward criminal activities has those inclinations heightened in war
periods. The potential juvenile delinquent of today will be either the
criminal or good citizen of tomorrow, depending upon whether proper
influences are exerted upon him during the formative years.
Public Utilities Commission
The Public Utilities Commission was created by the new Charter to
administer the publicly owned utilities in San Francisco. These are:
Municipal Airport, Municipal Railway, Water Department, and Hetch
Hetchy Water Supply and Power Project. The Lighting of Public
Streets and Buildings also is under the Public Utilities Commission.
The Manager of Utilities, under the direction of the Public Utilities
Commission, has performed his work ably and well over the past ten
years, as evidenced by the record of the various utilities discussed
below.
Municipal Airport
During the past ten years there have been two bond issues approved
by the people to finance extensions and improvements of the Airport.
One bond issue was approved in 1933 for $260,000. The other was
approved in 1937 for $2,850,000. In addition, land has been purchased
for the Airport through the medium of taxes totalling $993,000; this
sum and the amounts spent through Bond Funds were supplemented
from time to time by Federal contributions under P.W.A. and W.P.A.
projects.
In 1931-32, Airport property amounted to 220 acres, which has been
increased to 2,245 acres as of the present date. Since 1931-32 a 555
acre tract of land adjoining the Aii-port on the west has been acquired
and is available as a site for aircraft industries. In 1931-32 the landing
area of the Airport was 160 acres, which has been increased through
reclamation projects to 329 acres at present; in addition, 232 acres
more are being made ready for use which will bring the total landing
area to 561 acres or three and one-half times the figure of a decade
ago.
In 1931-32 the prevailing wind runway was only 1,900 feet long. This
has been increased to 6,000 feet today. There have been added, since
1931-32, two additional runways, 4,500 feet and 5,500 feet in length.
A practice landing strip 3,000 feet in length has been added, and all
runways have been paved. The width of all runways has been in-
creased from 150 feet to 200 feet and there have been added shoulders
of 75 foot width on each side of the runway. In the past ten years
the entire apron area comprising 339,000 square feet has been paved.
The parking area comprising 184,000 square feet also has been paved.
Drainage facilities have been improved. A channel, 1,000 feet wide
and 10 feet deep, has been dredged out to deep water, which has pro-
vided a combined land and sea-plane terminal — one of the world's
finest sea-plane harl)ors.
Under the supervision of the Civil Aeronautics Administration, a
radio range station has recently been installed at the airport and has
been in oi)eration since September. This newly-perfected "l)lind landing
l)eam" will permit landings and take-offs under conditions of low
ceilings and poor visibility that in former years would have forced
aircraft to land elsewhere. San Francisco Airport is being used a
great deal more because of this device.
Refen-ing back to the 555 acres held for future aii-craft industry
expansion, it should l)e noted that the State Highway Commission pro-
poses to widen the Bayshore Highway intersecting this property and
MONDAY, JANUARY 26. 1942 129
the San Francisco Airport proper. This would permanently freeze
development of passenger station facilities and all incidental structures
within its present limits. This City has proposed that the highway
fronting on the airport be re-routed a short distance to the West so that
ready access might be had to the airport from the industrial area and
at the same time make provision for the vast expansion of terminal
facilities an airport of this class will have to provide for post-war
aviation activities. Negotiations looking to this end are now under
way. In view of the military importance of the airport, it is hoped
that Federal Highway funds may be obtained to finance the extra cost
of the proposed re-routing.
Municipal Railway
During the ten years from 1931-32 to date, the Municipal Railway has
instituted one new trolley bus line, a round trip distance of seven
miles. It has put in nine motor bus lines totaling 41.47 miles round
trip. It has purchased 22 motor coaches at a cost of $200,000 and has
purchased nine trolley coaches at a cost of $116,000.
Five modern streamlined cars have been purchased at a cost of
$111,000.
Construction projects include terminal facilities and electric wiring
for the Howard Street trolley bus line, the Bay Bridge Terminal, and
a storage yard.
In addition, funds have been provided for a modern motor bus
garage. The Municipal Railway has replaced 8.17 single track miles
of track, including reconstruction of the B line from Sutter and
Market Streets to Tenth Avenue and Geary Boulevard, reconstruction
of Union Street between Franklin and Steiner Streets, and replacement
of approximately two miles of single track in the Twin Peaks Tunnel.
Funds have been provided for eliminating two tracks on Market
Street between Valencia and Castro Streets, and the replacement of
the inner tracks. Funds for extensions and improvements are limited
to profits earned by the railway.
Passengers carried on the Municipal Railway System increased
from 80,123,238 in 1931-32 to 108,822,011 in 1941, an increase of 28,698,-
773 or 35.81%.
The Municipal Railway has been self-sustaining from a five cent
fare throughout all the ten years with the exception of the first year,
1931-32. It is estimated that the retention of the five cent fare by the
Municipal Railway in comparison with the average of 8%c fare
throughout the country has saved the patrons of the Municipal
Railway approximately $50,000,000 during the period of city operation.
While on the subject of the Municipal Railway. I must repeat my
belief in the necessity for a unified streetcar system with universal
transfer privileges and the same rate of fare to all streetcar patrons.
Although past efforts toward unification of the two streetcar systems
have failed, I still have hopes that before too long this will be
accomplished. Once accomplished, it is my belief that the reaction
of the public will be amazement that they had not earlier seen the
wisdom of such a move.
Water Department
During the ten year period prior to June 30, 1941, the Water Depart-
ment made available the sum of $29,000,000. From this amount
$12,531,594 of Water Department Bonds have been redeemed; $10,103,-
291 has been used to pay interest and redemption on Hetch Hetchy
bonds; $3,110,605 has been paid to the Hetch Hetchy system for water
furnished; and $3,511,833 was used for additions and betterments.
In addition, $12,095,000 of 1933 Water Distribution Bonds and
$2,350,000 in Federal P.W.A. grants have been spent for transmission
and distribution facilities to meet the expanding needs of all sections
of the City. These monies provided 273 miles of new mains and 23,491
new service connections. Eight valves were installed throughout the
130 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
system, localizing the shut-down area resulting from damage to the
mains.
Three new reservoirs have heen constructed with an aggregate
capacity of 185,000,000 gallons. This more than doubled the water
storage capacity within the city limits. We now have an average of
five days' water supply in the city reservoirs alone, with a system
supply of water sufficient for two years, even without further
replenishment.
A total of 55 miles of 36 inch to 60 inch pipe lines were laid to
transport water to the Peninsula reservoirs and from there into the
city.
A second Bay crossing pipe line and a pipe line connecting the
Calaveras Reservoir with the Hetch Hetchy aqueduct have been
installed. This more than doubled the water supply to Peninsula
reservoirs. These pipe lines provide a gravity flow into Crystal Springs
reservoir which has eliminated about $150,000 per year pumping costs
at Ravenswood and Belmont.
A new 60 inch pipe line was installed from Crystal Springs reservoir
to the University Mound distribution reservoir.
A 36 inch diameter pipe line, approximately 5% miles in length, was
installed to supply the city of Palo Alto and other communities south
of Redwood City.
The Water Purification Division has been expanded to where it can
maintain adequate field and laboratory control over the sanitary and
potable qualities of the water supply. A laboratory has been equipped
and staffed, which has maintained a rigid control over the sanitary
qualities of the water. All plants at which the department's mains
are cross-connected to any other source of water supply are thoroughly
safeguarded. This constant vigilance over the purity of our public
water supply has been rewarded by not having been responsible for a
single case of water-borne disease.
In 1931 there were 107,000 consumers as compared with 124,000
in 1941.
Water consumption is now at an average rate of nearly 70,000,000
gallons per day as compared with an average of less than 53,000,000
gallons per day in 1931. The completion of the Hetch Hetchy aqueduct
reduced the operating expenses of the Water Department by $487,000
each year by eliminating the necessity for purchasing water from the
East Bay Muncipal Utility District.
A series of rate reductions made between 1932 and 1938 have
affected reductions equivalent to:
75% from fire sprinkler services
10% on all other service charges (general reduction)
10% on usage of the first 33,300 cu. ft. per month
17% on usage on the next 300,000 cu. ft. per month
54% on usage of all over 333,300 cu. ft. per month
These rate reductions are now saving water consumers in excess of
$1,100,000 per year and a total of approximately $7,000,000 for the
past nine years.
I have gone on record as advocating another reduction in water
rates. Reduction in bonded indebtedness and a succession of economies
in operation of the San Francisco Water Department, together with
increased revenues, have resulted in a $390,000 profit over and above
budget estimates for the first six months of this fiscal year.
The Public Utilities Commission, in consultation with me. just
befoi'e the outbreak of hostilities, took cognizance of this trend toward
increased revenue and reached an understanding that any surplus
over iHidget expectations would l)e used to reduce the cost of water
to consumers.
What the next six months will bring forth in the way of new risks
and new operating and defense costs because of war conditions is
MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942 131
unpredictable, but it is obvious that a continuation of the present
trend, except as affected by war contingencies, would make water
available to consumers at reduced rates.
Hetch Hetchy Water and Power Project
On October 28, 1934 a dream of years was realized for San Francisco.
For the first time water from the Hetch Hetchy reservoir in Yosemite
National Park flowed into the Crystal Springs Lake of the San Fran-
cisco Water Department. Back of this brief statement were years of
unremitting efforts and of brilliant engineering feats.
Begun in 1915, construction costs up to June 30, 1931 totaled
$78,914,045. Construction during the ten year period to June 30, 1941,
less retirements, amounted to $26,721,225. making a total investment
in the project, as of June 30. 1941, of $105,635,270.
Ten years ago, nearly eighty miles of aquedudt remained to be
completed to bring Tuolumne River water to San Francisco. To
complete this job required the building of the San Joaquin Valley
pipe line, 471/7 miles long, averaging five feet in diameter and designed
for a flow capacity of 60,000,000 gallons daily; and the building of
three short pipe lines of 2i/^ miles total length, with diameters from
5 to 91/^ feet; and the completion of the Coast Range tunnels.
I cannot let the opportunity pass to pay tribute to the city engineers
and the workers who performed the difficult task of driving the Coast
Range tunnels. It is well known that the Coast Range country is
difficult for underground work because of its geology. Some investi-
gators had declared the tunnel project practically impossible. But the
city engineers and workers did it, despite the difficulties of swelling
ground, underground water under high pressure, inflammable gas.
occasional poisonous gas, and a variation in substance penetrated
from hard granite and hard sandstone through all stages to quicksand.
Heavy timbering was the rule and sometimes this was crushed and
had to be replaced before the ground was brought under control.
In a great deal of the work it was necessary to construct the concrete
lining immediately behind the miners driving the bore ahead. The
result, however, justifies all the effort that went into the work. We
now have 28.7 miles of tunnel, 10 1/^ feet in diameter, capable of carry-
ing enough water for 2,500,000 people.
The fact that the Coast Range Tunnel work was done by the City's
own construction force saved the city $1,696,523, the difference between
the actual cost of $5,319,606 and the lowest private bid of $7,016,129.
In 1933 O'Shaughnessy Dam was increased in height 85.5 feet above
the original height of 226.5 feet above the stream bed. The construc-
tion cost was financed by a bond issue of $3,500,000 authorized in 1933
and a Federal W.P.A. grant of $1,058,000. This increase in height
naturally increased the reservoir's storage and increased the revenue
to the City from the power generated at Moccasin Creek Power Plant.
Prior to the increase in the height of O'Shaughnessy Dam. the highest
annual revenue from Hetch Hetchy Power was $2,290,000. This revenue
is now over $2,400,000 per year. Contributing to this increase was
another change that augmented prior production — an arrangement at
Early Intake Power House which made possible re-use of the water at
Moccasin Power House after discharge from the former plant.
Compliance with the power disposal provisions of the Raker Act has
been the subject of continuous controversy. Lacking a distribution
outlet, the city in 1925 entered into an agreement with the Pacific
Gas and Electric Company to distribute Hetch Hetchy Power in San
Francisco. In 1937 the Federal Government went to court to enjoin
the delivery of Hetch Hetchy Power to the company under the 1925
agreement. This injunction was granted by the District Court, later
reversed by the Circuit Court, but upon appeal to the United States
Supreme Court was confirmed in a decision rendered in April 22, 1940
affirming the injunction of the District Court. The city administration
has made every effort to avoid loss of the power revenue and was
132 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
successful in obtaining extensions of time and staying the injunction
until the final date of July 1, 1942. An attempt to lease the San Fran-
cisco distribution system failed to gain Federal approval, and in
November of 1941 the voters rejected a proposal to issue $66,500,000
of revenue l)onds for the purchase of Pacific Gas and Electric Company's
distribution system in San Francisco. Amendment of the Raker Act
was submitted to both Houses of Congress in June, 1939, but has not
been acted upon. As these lines are written, San Francisco representa-
tives— including two members of the Board of Supervisors — are in
Washington, D. C. attempting to have the Raker Act amended.
Other Departments
As stated in the beginning of this message, there is not time to
devote attention to each City Department. A good job has been done
by all of them and this is just as worthy a commendation as those
departments to whom space has been given in the foregoing. Those
departments not specifically mentioned are as follows:

General Statistics
When I made known to the Controller, earlier in this year, my
desire to submit a ten-year review to the people of San Francisco,
he immediately set his accounting staff to the task of preparing a
statistical review for the past ten years. All of this material is
valual)le and interesting, but only the most important parts can be
touched upon now. All this material is contained in the annual report
of the Controller for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1941, which report
is available to interested people.
During the ten years, land, buildings, structures, and equipment
therefor, to a total value of $53,200,000 have been added to the physical
properties of the City and County.
Of this amount, $33,995,000 came from bonds, including the P.W.A.
grants; $3,163,000 came from l)equests and trust funds; and $16,042,000
came from the current funds of the city, including the cost to the
MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942 133
city and county of W.P.A. projects but excluding Federal expenditures
on W.P.A. projects.
The tax rate of 1931-32 was $4.04 per $100 of assessed valuation,
which increased to $4,396 for the current year, 1941-42. This increase
is due primarily to the tremendous increase in costs to the city and
county for charities, hospitals and correction. Ten cents of this
increase is due entirely to the failure of the State Legislature at the
last regular session to appropriate any funds for the State Relief
Administration, thus forcing the City and County of San Francisco
to take over the burden of relief for the employable unemployed. But
even with this increase. San Francisco still has the lowest tax rate
and the lowest tax delinquency rate of any large city in the United
States. Tax delinquency in San Francisco, even at the depth of the
depression, exceeded 5% of the levy only once — for the fiscal year
1932-33. Each year since that time, without fail, there has been a
reducticfn in the amount of tax delinquency at the end of each fiscal
year until at the end of the fiscal year 1940-41 the amount of tax
delinquency was only 1.04% of the levy, a record which is the envy
of all cities in the United States. I like to think that this remarkable
record indicates not only the willingness and ability of San Francisco
taxpayers to pay their tax bills promptly each year, but it also reflects,
to some extent, at least, the soundness of my administration.
I wish to touch briefly here upon what I consider an injustice to
the taxpayers of San Francisco. I refer to the taxes collected in San
Francisco by the State, as compared with the amounts returned by the
State to San Francisco in the form of subventions and shared taxes.
Using the latest figures available, the State collects about $33,000,000
per year from the citizens of San Francisco through the sales, gasoline,
liquor, income, and other taxes, and from motor vehicle license taxes
and registration fees. In comparison, San Francisco expects to receive
only about $12,000,000 during 1941-42 from the State in the form of
various subventions and shared taxes. This includes State Aid for
schools, pensions. County Road Fund, tubercular patients and fire
boats, and a share of liquor licenses. The present method of allocation
of State funds to counties throughout the State results in discrimina-
tion against a. few counties, which includes San Francisco. There
should be a more equitable apportionment of these funds, which would
relieve the real property taxpayers of San Francisco, who now carry
an unequal share of the costs of governmental activities.
What the next few years hold for San Francisco nobody can tell.
I hope and pray that none of the provisions which we have made for
Civilian Defense ever will be required to be tested, as a result of
enemy attack. However, I am confident that if such attacks should
come. San Francisco will show again the spirit which enabled the
city to rise Phoenix-like from the ashes of the 1906 fire.
That the need for Civilian Defense will mean continuing additional
expense to the city so long as the war lasts, no one can deny. In the
interest of strictest economy I have informed all departments under
my jurisdiction, and the Chief Administrative Officer has informed
all departments under his jurisdiction, that no new positions, new
services, or extension of services or equipment will be allowed in the
1942-43 budget unless it can be shown clearly that such extensions or
additions are absolutely necesssary for the proper functioning of
muncipal government.
Although considerable sums have already been spent to purchase
the necessary equipment for adequate civil defense for the population
of San Francisco, all efforts have been extended to purchase the type
and kind of equipment which not only will be adequate in case of
attack, but which also eventually will become useful to the city in the
normal course of operation. And while some expenditures of necessity
are of a type that will have no use in peace time, such as the air raid
sirens, I think no one will begrudge the money expended for these items.
I wish to assure everyone that I will do all in my power to keep
134 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
these extraordinary expenditures to the lowest possible figure during
the period of the emergency.
Finally, gentlemen, the future of our nation is at stake. We must
make every sacrifice to win the war.
To do this, complete cooperation among all public officials is ab-
solutely essential. This cooperation I ask and as Mayor this cooperation
I demand. Partisan politics, petty political differences, individual
aspirations — all these must be cast aside in the interest of the security
of our country.
If we fail to do this, we will be derelict in our duties. If we fail
to do this, we will be unworthy of being public officials.
Gentlemen, the people of San Francisco expect and are entitled
to this from us.
Gentlemen, the people of San Francisco have always arisen to every
occasion.
Gentlemen, will we, public officials, be found wanting in this instance?
Sincerely yours,
ANGELO J. ROSSI,
Mayor.
MAYOR'S ANNUAL MESSAGE
January 26, 1942.
The Honorable
The Board of Supervisors
City and County of San Francisco
San Francisco.
Gentlemen:
I am sending to your Honorable Board a statement of the affairs of
the City and County of San Francisco, as provided in Section 25 of the
Charter.
Sincerely,
ANGELO J. ROSSI,
Mayor.
Controller
The report of Controller Harold J. Boyd for the fiscal year ended
June 3, 1941, found the City and County of San Francisco in splendid
condition, financially, to meet war emergency demands.
Operations continued on a strictly cash basis. Revenues exceeding
expenses raised the current surplus. Bonded indebtedness was reduced
and tax delinquency receded to 1.04%.
An emergency reserve of $2cSl,700 on June 30, last, is shown by the
report. In addition, there was $3,257,592 in the cash reserve fund which
can be used, if necessary, to meet war emergency needs. The cash
reserve fund was set up under the city and county's charter to equalize
accrued and cash positions between semi-annual tax collections.
Funded debt also could be increased $77,482,400 without exceeding
charter limits.
General city and county revenues amounted to $52,707,382 for the
last fiscal year, and expenses, including general bond redemptions, were
$52,134,695, leaving $572,686 to be added to current surplus. This
increased the current surplus account to $6,432,464 on last June 30,
against $5,859,778 a year earlier. The largest single rise in expenses
was shown for charities, hospitals and corrections, which includes aid
to the needy blind and aged. Total for this group of expenditures was
$12,805,412, against $11,643,004. This increase was partly offset by
increased subventions and state and federal grants in aid.
Taxes levied for the fiscal year totaled $■35,162,785, of which all except
$367,339 was collected before the end of the fiscal year. This resulted
MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942 135
in a tax delinquency figure of only 1.04%, against 1.19% in the 1940
fiscal year and 1.32% in the 1939 period. Tax delinquency figures have
been declining steadily since 1933 and have been under 2% each year,
since 1936. The fiscal provisions of the Charter are a safeguard against
fiscal disorder. The I'eports of the certified public accountants indicate
clearly that the Controller of the City and County of San Francisco
is enforcing the Charter mandates with respect to the fiscal affairs of
the City and County.
Coordinating^ Council
For its third year as a municipal agency, the Coordinating Council
reports widespread interest in the welfare of our children, brought
about the occurrence of a few serious cases of juvenile delinquency.
Agencies and departments have reexamined their programs and policies
and realize even more strongly that cooperation is essential in the field
of child welfare.
During this year searching studies have been made of the whole
community program, beginning with the Community Chest Special
Study Committee on Juvenile Delinquency. The Council concurred
heartily with the recommendations made by this special Committee
and volunteered to supervise the work suggested under Recommenda-
tions XI, "Coordination for Continuing Service," as it is really an
extension of our program in setting up working relationships between
agencies and departments and bringing up for correction, gaps in the
structure.
A great deal has been done in cooperation with the new counseling
and guidance program, including meetings at all district councils with
the counselors, to give them an opportunity to meet the workers from
departments and agencies on whom they may call for assistance in
child guidance. The Council has also sponsored meetings of agency
directors and the School Department to work out a plan for referral of
cases from the counselors to others in the community, as well as giving
them an opportunity for consultation service on problem cases. It is
recognized the counselors can do a good job only if they have the
hearty cooperation of everyone in the community and the Council has
made all its resources available to this end.
Consultation service has been extended to neighboring communities
interested in setting up coordinating councils and it will be interesting
to watch developments in Burlingame, Walnut Creek, Yuba, San Diego,
and Sutter, to see how the Council experiment in working together
solidifies and builds up community services.
One outgrowth of the keen interest in the work of the San Francisco
Council has been the publication of various material, including one
prepared on the Social Organizations in Chinatown, which are little
understood and play a vital part in the life of the community. Another
was the listing of all community facilities including parks, play-
grounds, schools, libraries, social agencies, churches, civic organiza-
tions, etc., by council districts so our members would be familiar with
their resources and able to utilize them fully. This has been dis-
tributed widely in the city to the social agencies, as well as to the
school counselors. Because of the long summer vacation this year,
special leaflets and pamphlets were distributed to the children telling
them about the interesting things they could do in the city during the
summer.
The Council has cooperated actively in a neighborhood experiment
designed to weld the people living in the district into a cooperative
group, ascertaining their own needs and working together to meet
them. As a result of this interest, evening meetings and activities
are being held in the schools, club activities for adolescents have been
instituted, weekly dances are held, and a leadership training course
is planned.
The establishment of a day camp for the children of our city con-
136 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
tinues to be a Council project, which the demonstration this summer
by the Recreation Department at Glen Park proves to be a much-
needed, valuable adjunct to our child welfare program.
A great deal of work was done educating the community to the
dangers in proposed state legislation governing activities of minors
in street trades, and the measures were defeated.
The Secretary served on the Tenant Selection Advisory Committee of
the Housing Authority, on the Boards of Directors of the Motion Pic-
ture Research Council, Goodwill Industries, Hill Haven, and the
Children's Agency, and on various Community Chest Councils, as well
as on the Chest Budget Study Committee for Child Welfare Agencies.
It is essential in the midst of our vital defense efforts that we do
not lose sight of one of our most important duties — care, training, and
protection of our children, particularly as we have just set up this
year new counseling and court services which should be given full
opportunity to prove their value. Coordinating Council members met
many times. They know their problems and responsibilities, and will
continue working together for the youth of San Francisco.
Golden Gate Bridge
From the date of its opening. May 27, 1937, until December 1, 1941,
vehicles passing over the Bridge numbered 19,476,349 ; passengers, in
buses 7,983,675; pedestrians, 496,269.
The average daily number of vehicles over this period was 11,750
and the average daily revenue $5,636.97. Total revenue during the
entire period, $9,343,283. Commute tickets issued, 3,230,372. The aver-
age toll per vehicle, amounted to $0,472.
The fiscal year 1940-41, terminating June 30th, last, witnessed 4,764,-
758 vehicles crossing the Bridge, producing operating revenue of
$2,282,213.58.
Defense Preparations
The Bridge District has cooperated fully with State and Federal
authorities in preparations for defense. A total of $67,500 of United
States Savings Bonds (being the maximum amount available to a
purchaser in one calendar year) was purchased in 1941, and a like
amount will be purchased in January, 1942. Funds for the purchase
of these bonds were taken from the Reserve Interest Fund. Other
funds of the District cannot legally be invested. Steps to remove the
legal obstruction by legislative act have been considered.
Over the past two and one-half years numerous steps have been
taken to safeguard the Bridge and its approaches from damage by
sabotage or other enemy action. Army, Navy and Coast Guard officers
have cooperated by suggesting, at District invitation, points at which
improved protection can be provided.
The California State Guard very promptly posted guards at the
Bridge following commencement of Japanese hostilities. Everything
possible has been done to safeguard this important crossing, and from
various remarks made by militai'y authorities, the Bridge is invulnei'-
able to attack as long as air supremacy in this locality is retained.
It should be realized that a bomb falling on the deck of the Bridge
could, at most, stop traffic for only a few hours, and could not in any
way affect the strength of the structure. Also, it should be realized
that a simultaneous direct hit by four torpedoes on the fender around
the San Francisco pier of the Bridge would scarcely do more than
dislodge the barnacles. (The concrete pier and fender, at the base, is
as large as a football field — 150' x 300'.) Under such circumstances,
too much concern need not be felt over the ability of American armed
forces to protect the Bridge against disabling damage.
Highways and Approaches
During November 1941 the State Highway Department completed
MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942 137
the construction of the elevated roadway through San Rafael, thus
eliminating a very serious traffic bottleneck. There was also completed
during 1941 the four-lane northerly and southerly approaches to Peta-
luma. These improvements will greatly facilitate the flow of summer-
time traffic between San Francisco and the Russian River and other
Redwood Empire vacation resorts. The flow of vital military traffic
Avill likewise be expedited.
Further improvements are needed to eliminate two-lane highways
between Ignacio and Santa Rosa and beyond, and to improve highways
easterly to connect with the American Canyon Road to Sacramento
and valley points.
Every possible effort was made during the year to promote the con-
struction of an approach road through the town of Sausalito which
would provide a low-level lateral between Waldo Point and the Bridge.
The District expended approximately $400,000 on that part of this
route extending one and a half miles from the Bridge to the city limits
of Sausalito. There is a four-lane highway from Waldo Point to the
northerly limits of Sausalito. But the narrow, crooked streets within
the town prevent the use of the route by trucks and buses to avoid
the two miles of six per cent grade on the Waldo (main) approach.
At the end of the fiscal year, efforts were being directed towards obtain-
ing the allocation to this project of Federal funds being appropriated
for defense roads. This route is a vital link in highways connecting
numerous Army, Air Force and Navy posts in the Bay area, and a
large volume of strictly military traffic would be using it at present if
it were completed.
Progress on the project of obtaining and clearing the right-of-way
for the widening of Lombard Street in San Francisco has been made
by the City and County of San Francisco, although actual work on
the roadway had not commenced at the end of the year. In the mean-
time, rather serious traffic congestion has developed on Bay Street,
east of Van Ness Avenue. While this congestion may be relieved some-
what when Lombard Street is widened, there still will be a serious
need for a direct route between the vicinity of Lombard and Van Ness
and the area served by Columbus Avenue. A tunnel through Russian
Hill has been mentioned frequently in connection with the problem
at this point. Lombard Street is required to accommodate nearly all
traffle of the Marina District, the Presidio and the Bridge, and accord-
ingly, a more direct connection with the downtown district is vitally
needed.
The Directors of the Golden Gate Bridge and Highway District report
that the first five months of the fiscal year, 1941-42 saw a continued
increase in volume of traffic. Total vehicles in this period were
2,472,157, compared with 2,16.5,480 in the same five months of 1940.
Total revenue was $1,125,859, compared with $1,053,755 in the earlier
period. Non-revenue Government vehicles increased to 281,593 from
144,451, and to a total of 1,158,843 since the opening of the Bridge
May 27, 1937. The current rate of Government toll-free vehicles, in-
cluding private travel of Army and Navy personnel, active and retired,
and their dependents, is approximately 15% of all Bridge traflfic.
Every effort is being made to expedite the handling of Army and
Navy vehicles and to cooperate fully with defense efforts of the military
authorities. No delay is occasioned in the handling of Army and Navy-
owned vehicles. Necessarily, there is considerable delay in verifying
passes presented for private vehicles, and these passes account for
60% to 80% of all Government vehicles. It is impossible to handle the
toll-free passage of 1,200 to 1,800 or more private vehicles each day,
nearly all of which are on private business or pleasure, without seri-
ously delaying the passage of vital military equipment and personnel
and, in fact all toll-paying vehicles. The District has requested co-
operation of military authorities to curtail or eliminate issuance of
138 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
passes for private business or pleasure trips. Such action would
materially speed up the flow of all traffic through the lanes.
The Bridge has demonstrated, many times over, its economic value
to the general public. To appreciate its value as a defense facility,
it is only necessary to visualize the hopeless congestion that might
exist at this time were it still necessary to use ferry facilities to trans-
port Government and private vehicles across the Golden Gate.
San. Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge
During the year 1941 the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge main-
tained its previously established position as the world's most heavily
traveled toll structure, at the same time breaking all previous records.
The total traffic for the year was about 19,000,000 vehicles. The highest
monthly record occurred in August when 1,809,329 vehicles crossed
the Bridge.
The large increase in traffic must undoubtedly be attributed to a
number of different factors or influences. The most notable of these
have probably been the intense national defense efforts and the accom-
panying increase in general economic activity.
November 12, 1941, was the fifth anniversary of the opening day of
the Bridge. During these five years the importance of the Bridge and
its influence on the entire San Francisco Bay region have steadily
grown. The tremendous increases in Bridge traffic offer a constant
demonstration of this importance. Even after five years of operation
the Bridge is still a source of interest to visitors from afar, as well
as to many others not so fortunate who send numerous requests for
information of all sorts relative to its construction, operation, finances,
or other matters.
In spite of its large volume of traffic, the Bridge continues to be one
of the safest highways of the nation. The record shows that a person
can normally expect to drive much farther on the San Francisco-Oak-
land Bay Bridge than on the ordinary highways of the United States
before being involved in a traffic accident.
Maintenance and operation of the Bay Bridge involves a wide variety
of occupations, including maintenance engineers and inspectors,
accountants and other office workers, toll collectors, painters, mechan-
ics, electricians, emergency equipment operators, roadway maintenance
crews, and workers in several other classifications as well. All em-
ployees are under State Civil Service and at the present time are about
200 in number.
Federal Projects
The following report is submitted by Wm. Arthur Newman, District
Engineer, in connection with the construction activities of the Fed-
eral Government under Public Buildings Administration, San Fi-an-
cisco:
San Francisco Appraisers Stores and Immigration Station: The
official name of this building has been shortened to U. S. Appraisers
Building. In January it was 4% complete and in December 43%.
Total contracts awarded to date amount to $■4,118,722.00. Occupancy
date is undetermined, pending deliveries of building materials. De-
fense Housing: Construction of 75 housing units for the Harbor De-
fense Area was awarded to Contractor Robert McCarthy: 45 units
at Fort Barry, 6 at Fort Baker, 6 at Fort Funston, and 18 at Fort
Winfield Scott. This work has been completed and occupied. Land-
scaping is now proceeding. Federal Office Building: Due to war con-
ditions expansions of the Navy has required the entire fourth floor,
portions of the first, fifth and sixth floors of the Federal Office Build-
ing, in addition to the third floor originally occupied. The District
Headquarters of the Eighth District. Public Buildings Administration,
Federal Works Agency, was moved to Latham Square Building, Oak-
land. Other Federal activities in the Federal Office Building and in
MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942 139
other Federal buildings in San Francisco have moved to rented quar-
ters in the city due to expansion of war activities. Rincon Annex Post
Office: Landscaping around the Rincon Annex Post Office Building, at
Mission and Steuart Streets, improved the appearance of this section
of the city. Expansion of the Rincon Annex P. O. facilities has required
taking over a warehouse formerly vacant, located on the Government
site.
U. S. Coast Guard Air Station, Mills Field: This air station has been
completed, occupied and dedicated. Additional improvements, including
landscaping, during this year, have greatly improved this fine Air
Station. Improvements are contemplated to the Federal buildings in
San Francisco during the year 1942.
Board of Education
Hardly ever before, in the history of San Francisco, have burdens
equal to those of 1941 been placed upon the public schools. As Mayor
of this city, I am pleased to be able to report that all responsibilities
have been faithfully performed. More important, the pressure of un-
anticipated demands did not in any way interfere with the basic task
of our schools — the education of the youth of our city.
Foremost among the unexpected tasks was the training of national
defense workers. As shipyards, factories and other production cen-
ters found the need for skilled workers becoming acute, they turned
to the schools for help. Classes were organized on a twenty-four hour
basis and as of December 1, 1941, a total of 7,866 adults had been
trained to take their places in defense industries. This work was
accomplished without interfering with the basic industrial and voca-
tional arts programs which have efficiently operated in San Francisco
for many years. Enrollments in these classes as of December 1 in-
cluded approximately 15,000 boys in junior and senior high school
shop classes 1,146 adults in apprentice training instruction and 1,802
adults in trade extension work.
The arrest in February of this year of a group of boys referred to
as the "dead-end kids" led the citizenry of San Francisco to inquire
what was being done to combat tendencies toward juvenile delinquency.
Investigations revealed a widespread laxity of parental discipline and a
failure of character building agencies to attract youth to their doors.
Again the public demanded that the public schools breach the gap
and again the schools responded. A committee headed by Dr. Alvin C.
Eurich of Stanford University was appointed to make a survey of
the counseling and guidance program. On the basis of an exhaustive
investigation the committee submitted a report to the Superintendent
of Schools during the summer. The major recommendations made
were put into effect and today the San Francisco counseling and
guidance plan serves as a model of progressiveness throughout the
nation.
Bombs on Pearl Harbor and unanticipated San Francisco blackouts
necessitated immediate development of public school air raid precau-
tions. Procedures were prepared by the schools' administrative staff
and within two days principals of all schools were conducting air raid
drills along lines required by the San Francisco Council of Civilian
Defense. Janitors had been instructed in the handling of incendiary
bombs. The reward came from the relieved parents of thousands of
youngsters one of whom wrote to the Superintendent of Schools as
follows: "I must express my profound admiration and gratitude for
the splendid way our teachers are handling this emergency. ... At no
time have they evidenced any fear or even nervousness." San Fran-
cisco is indeed fortunate to have in its employ an outstanding teach-
ing corps.
Demands of the national defense program necessitated a postpone-
ment of new construction scheduled for this year. The postponement
was effected without hardship upon any pupils and without the neces-
140 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
sity of curtailing in any way the educational program. As Mayor, It
was my privilege some weeks ago to summon all department heads to
meet with representatives of the Public Works Reserve of the Federal
Works Agency. The purpose of this organization is to coordinate future
construction of public buildings to relieve anticipated unemployment
after the present emergency. Plans for such construction, extending
far into the future, are being prepared by the School Department.
It was my pleasure to appoint as Commissioner of Education tor
a five-year term beginning in January 1942, Honorable Harry I. Chris-
tie, executive secretary of the Allied Printing Trades Council, and to
reappoint for a similar term Mrs. Lloyd W. Dinkelspiel, who has
served with distinction as a member of the Board of Education since
1935. Both selections were confirmed by the voters at the general
election in November 1941.
Police Department
The report of Charles W. Dullea, Chief of Police, presents in brief
the various activities of this department for the year 1941. The facts
revealed by a study of the work performed by the Police Department
show that San Francisco is receiving excellent police protection, and
that the department is displaying police efficiency second to none.
Civilian Defense
A problem of grave importance and one that is most closely con-
cerned with every person of whatever station in life, is civilian de-
fense. During the past year the department has prepared the most
detailed plans for the care of the civilian population in the event of
any major disaster. This preparedness, of necessity, embraces a very
wide field and demands much study and planning, and a thorough co-
operation within the department strengthened by any and all avail-
able cooperation from without the department.
Having formulated our general plans for coping with any major
catastrophe, department heads attended many meetings with various
law enforcement agencies of the State formed for civilian defense.
Meetings were held at Sacramento and Los Angeles, with further con-
ferences held later at Sacramento.
The State is divided into nine regions, San Francisco being, in the
fifth region, which includes the nine bay counties. Regional training
school for region five was held at the University of California for
three days in June, conducted by members of the Federal Bureau of
Investigation. Later, through cooperation of the commanding generals
of the Fourth Army, the Ninth Corps Area, and the Fourth Air Force,
the California Technical Institute of Peace Officers' Training was held
at Berkeley, and attended by members of this department. The fact
was stressed that in the matter of any emergency, the care of the
civilion population rests entirely with the civil authorities.
At the present time the San Francisco Police Department is ready
with detailed statistics connected with physical properties of public
utilities and private manufacturing enterprises and has also, in de-
tail, a vast mass of information concerning hospitalization and trans-
portation, housing, et cetera. We are thus ready to sit in with heads
of other civic units and dovetail our efforts with the recently organized
San Francisco Civilian Defense Council.
Major Crimes
The year just past shows a low average in crimes, with decreases,
in comparison with last year, in manslaughter by negligence (motor
vehicle), robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, larceny and auto theft.
Percentages range from 11.14% decrease in larcenous offenses to 5.9%
in manslaughter by negligence. Of the major offenses, only murder
and rape showed an increase over the previous year.
MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942 141
Another twelve months have passed without a bank robbery within
the City and County of San Francisco.
There was a 13% decrease in the amount, or value of property, lost
through burglaries, robberies, grand and petty theft, as shown by
a comparison of this year with last.
Police Academy
Our department continues to train recruits and acquaint them with
the many phases of law enforcement work and modern police routine.
Detailed instructions are given in military training, physical educa-
tion and first aid. report writing and rules and regulations of the
department, criminal law and procedure, traffic and accident procedure,
mechanics of arrest and searches, firearms, and motorcycle riding.
On the completion of the course each recruit police officer is awarded
a graduating certificate, as well as a first aid teachers' certificate by
the officials of the Red Cross. Refresher courses for all members of
the department were also conducted at intervals.
Each member of the academy staff is an expert in his particular line
and is selected because of his specialized ability in the course he
teaches. Staff members were given an in-service-training course under
the supervision of the chief instructor of the Federal Bureau of
Investigation.
School Traffic Patrol
The School Traffic Patrol is an outstanding factor in safety in our
department. Nearly thirty-five hundred School Traffic Patrol boys
guard six hundred school crossings, protecting the lives of over one
hundred forty thousand school children attending public and private
schools in this city.
It is an outstanding safety feat to report that another year has
passed without an accident, fatal or otherwise, occurring at our school
crossings during school hours.
Each year the traffic boys have a day's outing at the Presidio as
guests of the army, and are given a thorough picture of life at the post.
Also, each year one or two boys are selected from each school for
two weeks' vacation in School Traffic Patrol Officers' Safety Training
Camp, under the patronage of our Police Commission. These outings
are looked-for events in the life of the School Traffic Patrol boys.
Accident Prevention Bureau
San Francisco has set the pace at the half-way mark — first six
months of 1941 — in Its population group of 500,000 and over, in the
National Traffic Safety Contest, as announced by the National Safety
Council. This standing is based on the cities' traffic fatality records
and the improvement over their preceding three-year average — factors
which constitute only 50% of the points used in final judging at the
end of the year.
The additional 50 points awarded in the final judging are for the
scope of the. accident prevention program — accident reporting system,
traffic engineering and enforcement, child safety programs and public
education. For the first six months, San Francisco led the largest
cities with 30 points out of a possible 50. New York City was second
with 18.3 and Pittsburgh third with 18.1.
Intelligent planning and conscientious enforcement of traffic laws
have kept accidents to a minimum, and this in spite of the increased
volume of traffic on our streets. There has been no increase in traffic
accidents for this year over last, even though there has been a very
perceptible increase in the volume of automobile and other traffic on
our streets.
Two-way radio equipped automobiles have been installed and have
not been in operation for a sufficient length of time to give definite
142 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
proof of their effectiveness, as a traffic accident deterrent, but. as in
cities which have had two-way radio, we look for this to prove a very
effective factor in accident provention.
Improvements and Additions
At an estimated cost of $50,000.00, preparations are complete for the
construction of a shooting range and police training headquarters at
Lake Merced. This combined project, when completed, will rank with
the best in the United States. The budget also includes $5,000.00 for
ammunition for training members of the department in the use of
various types of firearms.
For the installation of a two-way radio system in our department
automobiles and that department police patrol boat a sum of $20,000.00
has been made available. The department patrol boat and a large
percentge of department automobiles have already been made part of
our two-way radio system.
A department tow truck, for which $2,500.00 was allowed in the
budget, has ben in operation for some time, and, irrespective of its
possibilities in the matter of towing illegally parked cars, has already
proven its worth in the towing of broken down department auto-
mobiles.
At a cost of approximately $6,000.00, a horse van, fully equipped,
with space for seven horses, has been acquired. This unit saves much
time two or three times daily in the movement of our department
mounts which heretofore had to be ridden to and from the regular
tours of duty covered by the mounted men of the department.
Fire Department
During the first eleven months of the year 1941, the San Francisco
Fire Department responded to 7,919 alarms of fire, an increase of 575
over a corresponding period of the previous year. Some of the
more serious fires occurred on the following dates: May 19th, at the
Gragnano Macaroni Factory, 970 Bryant Street; July 11th at the
Shelley Tire Co., 1814 Market Street; August 2nd, at the Tiedemann
& Harris Packing Plant, 360 Langton Street; October 13th, at the
Bauer Cooperate Storage Plant, 733-7th Street.
Prompt and effective work on the part of the fire department pre-
vented the spread of these fires to adjoining properties, and in each
instance the losses were gratifyingly low.
Civil Defense activities occupied a major part of the attention
of the department, and in this connection, drawing upon the expe-
rience gained by European cities which were exposed to heavy air
raids, the necessary mechanism for the decentralization of command
of the various fire fighting units was prepared by the creation of an
additional division and by revision of the battalion district boundaries.
Inspection of industrial plants, with particular stress on those en-
gaged in defense work, was accelerated and a comprehensive program
of expansion of the department under war conditions, together with a
schedule of training for auxiliary firemen was inaugurated, and the
latter is now in full swing with drills being conducted in all of the
52 department houses.
Fully aware to the grave responsibilities which modern warfare
imposes upon the fire protection service of vulnerable coast cities, the
San Francisco Fire Department faces its task with courage, determin-
ation, and in utmost confidence.
Civil Service Commission
The volume of work of the Civil Service Commission during the
past year has been greatly increased by reason of the change in em-
ployment conditions resulting from the National Defense program,
and more recently, war conditions.
MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942 143
In the fall of 1940, the Commission sponsored a charter amendment
which was approved by the voters and which authorized military
leaves in time of peace. Until then, the charter authorized military
leaves in time of war only. Adoption of this amendment has extended
security in their municipal employment or civil service eligibility for
appointment to hundreds of employees and eligibles who, as mem-
bers of the California National Guard or of the Reserve Corps, were
called to active military duty or who had been drafted for military
training and service prior to the involvment of this country in the
war.
The National Defense program created a vast expansion of employ-
ment in private industry and in other governmental services as well as
absorbing men into the enlarged military establishments. This con-
spired to use up the long-standing national surplus of labor and finally
to produce a definite labor shortage.
Withdrawal of experienced employees from the municipal service
and the shortage of labor necessitated doubling the number of civil
service examinations normally required to supply the needs of the
municipal government. As of December 17, 1941, the Commission had
concluded 48 examinations since July 1st and 50 others were in prog-
ress. As of December 17, 1941, examinations were needed for 58 ad-
ditional classifications but these have not yet been announced because
of the limited staff and facilities, with which to hold the examinations.
It is apparent that during the current fiscal year, between 150 and
175 examinations will be required to supply the personnel needs of
the municipal government as against an average of 85 examinations
per year for the past three years.
By charter amendment effective during this fiscal year, the Park
and Library Departments and the Airport have been brought under
civil service. The more than 800 employments involved were classi-
fied and the status of the occupants of the positions determined by
the Commission on the basis of a careful survey of the duties and
responsibilities and personnel records. It is interesting to note that,
exclusive of school teachers, only 130 employments and offices in the
municipal service or 1.3% remain in the unclassified service. As of
June 30, 1941, there were 13,555 employments and offices established
in the municipal service, including school teachers.
The Commission cooperated with me in developing a uniform salary
adjustment policy which I recommended to the Board of Supervisors at
the beginning of the current fiscal year. This cooperation included
comprehensive analyses and reports of actual municipal salaries, wages
in private employment and other governmental jurisdictions, and com-
parisons of these with recommended salary schedules as well as es-
timates of costs of various proposed plans.
' Employees' Retirement System
The Retirement System included 12,807 employees at June 30, 1941.
During the fiscal year ending on that date. 205 members were retired
because of age or disability and 139 active members died. Many of
the positions thus vacated were not filled. During 1940-41, 129 retired
persons died, and on June 30, 1941, there were 2,046 persons receiv-
ing allowances under the Retirement System, this number including
aged and disabled members retired from the several departments and
also retired firemen and policemen, and their widows, where retire-
ment allowances were continued to them or death resulted while in
performance of duty.
The administration of the State Compensation Insurance Law, as it
affects all city employees, is centralized under the Retirement Board.
Reports of all injuries among approximately 13,000 employees are
made to the Retirement OflSce and claims are adjusted and benefits
paid in accordance with the State law and Charter, the city and county
acting as self-insurer in relation to all employees. During the fiscal
144 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
year 1940-41, 955 compensation cases were handled, under which either
weekly benefits or medical expenses were paid. Approximately 1,673
additional cases were handled which were not of sufficient severity
to qualify for compensation benefits of any kind. The investments of
the Retirement Fund at June 30, 1941, totaled $28,557,632 as against
$26,268,429 as of June 30, 1940.
Assessor
The grand total of the 1941-42 Assessment Roll exceeds one billion
dollars for the first time in six years; reflecting a substantial revival
of business and real estate during the past year. This upward trend
is illustrated by the eight million dollar increase in tangible personal
property valuations, and a thirty million dollar increase in solvent
credits — commercial bank accounts and open book accounts of our
local business firms. More than 46,000 parcels of land, over one-fourth
of the land surface of the City, were inspected and revalued during
the past year. This revision resulted in a decrease of $6,250,000. Land
values were revised in the Richmond, Sunset, West Portal, and Park-
side Districts, part of the Western Addition District, and in the
lower Market Street area, both north and south of Market Street.
Home building expanded greatly during 1940-41, particularly in the
Sunset, Parkside, Merced Manor, and Lakeside Districts. This gain
was offset by depreciation reductions granted to older buildings, leav-
ing a net increase in building values of approximately five million
dollars.
The newly reorganized Marine Department in the Assessor's Office
increased assessed valuations of watercraft by over a million dollars.
If the valuation studies now being conducted by the Assessor's
Office are not curtailed because of the war, San Francisco will possess
one of the outstanding assessing offices in the country. Efficiency in
this department results in a fair and equitable distribution of the tax
burden among all the property owners. This ideal of complete fairness
and equity in assessed values is of great benefit to taxpayers, and is
the goal of the Assessor's Office and the Administration.

MONDAY. JANUARY 26. 1942 145
Office of the Treasurer
The Treasurer's Office is conducted in strict conformity with the
Federal Reserve Act of 193.5 as amended, the Constitution and the Laws
of tlie State of California, the Charter, and Ordinances and Resolutions
of the Board of Supervisors.
Cash on hand at the close of business June 30. 1940, $19,380,854.65.
Cash received fiscal year 1940-1941, $82,486,108.99. Cash disbursed fiscal
vear 1940-1941, $81,788,702.93. Total cash $164,274,811.92. Journal
transfers $110,747,857.22. Cash June 30, 1941, $20,078,260.71.
Controller's audit at the close of the fiscal year showed cash and
accounts exactly correct. Audit of the Retirement System securities
with coupons attached, by private auditors, were found intact and in
perfect order
Ordinance No. 1181, Series of 1939, designated the National City Bank
of New York as the Fiscal Agency of the City and County, effective
July 1, 1941. Said ordinance provides, section 2: "For the paying and
receiving and returning to the Treasurer of the City and County of
San Francisco of each semi-annual coupon on any bond as the same
becomes due and payable, 4c. Also for the paying and receiving and
returning to the Treasurer of the City and County of San Francisco
of each bond which has become due and payable. 1/20 of 1% of the
face value of said bond."
It is difficult to determine at this time what the savings will be
by the change from the old method, because of the change in owner-
ship of bonds of the City and County. If it is not satisfactory, I pro-
pose to recommend that the Fiscal Agency be discontinued. The credit
of the City and County is so well established that I fail to see the ne-
cessity therefor, although it is provisionally written into the bonds.
Several tons of old paper stored in the basement of the Treasurer's
Office were sold in accordance with law. By getting rid of this useless
material, ample space is provided for a safety shelter for all employees
of the office, and a limited additional number from other offices, in
case of air raids and bombings. In my mind, it is the most secure
spot in the City Hall.
There has been no increase in personnel during the fiscal year.
Office costs are kept to the very minimum. Comparison with other
cities shows that office costs are lower than elsewhere.
Sheriff
The report of Daniel C. Murphy, Sheriff, covers the calendar year
1941, and shows receipts as follows:
County commissions, fees and mileage, $31,424.49; cash receipts un-
der writs of attachment, executions, fee deposits of plaintiffs, and
cash deposits by defendants in lieu of undertakings on release of at-
tachments, $200,149.70; sales of personal property, after deduction of
County commission and fees, $23,036.64; sales of real property,
$5,050.47; total $259,661.30.
Process and papers filed and issued, number 18,191. Under the heads
of writs of attachment and writs of execution, most of the personal
property levied upon consists of garnishments. However, under that
type of writs, including Claim and Delivery and writs of Replevin, per-
sonal property sales were consummated, to the number of 87, amount,
$23,036.64. Writs of possession. 162; possession to plaintiff, 112; un-
executed, 15 ; forcible evictions, 35.
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 1941, the number of inmates in
San Francisco County Jails averaged 813. There were 419 Federal male
and 15 Federal female prisoners received; daily average, 25. The total
sum received from the Federal Government was $7,043.20.
Transportation: During the calendar year of 1941 there were 672
male patients and 513 female patients transported from the Detention
146 MONDAY, JANUARY 26. 1942
Hospital to various state institutions. From our County Jails 189 male
and 11 female prisoners were transported to state penitentiaries and
other correctional institutions during this same period. The transpor-
tation of these persons is under the direct supervision of the Sheriff
and follows the procedure authorized on January 13, 1936 of Ordinance
7.062, Bill 890. All surplus money received from this source is de-
posited with the Treasurer of the City and County of San Francisco
by the Sheriff. While under the law the Sheriff could retain this
surplus money he believes it should be used for the benefit of the tax-
payers of the City and County of San Francisco. This new procedure
adopted by the Sheriff has resulted in a saving to the City and County
of San Francisco of $5421.35 during the last fiscal year.
County Jail Commissary Stores: At the request of the Sheriff, Or-
dinance 7061, Bill 860 was drafted and approved on January 13, 1936.
This Ordinance established County Jail stores to be maintained for
the convenience of prisoners and under this procedure should there be
any profit it would be deposited with the Treasurer for the benefit of
the taxpayers of the City and County of San Francisco.
These stores are under the direct supervision of the Sheriff and with
minimum prices on all commodities sold in the stores the profit
for the last fiscal year amounted to $•6226.89.
Public Utilities Commission
On January 8, 1942, the Public Utilities Commission, which controls
and operates all municipally owned utilities, had been in existence
for 10 years. Increased service of these utilities to San Francisco is
explained in detail in the following departmental reports:
Municipal Railway
The Municipal Railway at the close of the calendar year had com-
pleted its twenty-ninth year of operation. Service was furnished to
both the ferry terminal and to the bay bridge terminal, and notwith-
standing increasingly trying traffic conditions the best possible serv-
ice with available facilities was rendered to the people of San Fran-
cisco. The rate of fare remained unchanged at 5 cents with a free
transfer privilege, and based on an average fare of 8.33 cents through-
out the United States means a saving of over $2,700,000 for the year
to patrons of the Municipal Railway.
Operating revenues increased over the previous year notwithstand-
ing the fact that the previous year's business included 128 days of
operation of the Golden Gate International Exposition and that cash
passenger receipts decreased approximately $800 per day from Decem-
ber 8, 1941, to the close of the year due to war conditions. Operating
revenue for the year 1941 amouted to $4,098,996, an increase of $13,417.
or .339r over the preceding year. The sustained large volume of busi-
ness, with revenues at a figure of over four million dollars annually,
is very gratifying and can be attributed in part to the differences in
the rates of fare in effect on the Municipal Railway lines of 5 cents
with a free transfer privilege and on the Market Street Railway Com-
pany lines of 7 cents with a free transfer privilege.
In conformity with its policy of placing profits back into the system
in the forms of increased service, the Public Utilities Commission has
continued to render motor coach service in the districts in which
service was inaugurated in the previous two years and in addition in-
augurated new motor coach service serving the Irving-Noriega, outer
Mission, Park-Presidio, and Buena Vista Park districts. On Septeml)or
7, 1941, motor coach operation on the Howard Street line was replaced
by trolley coach operation, nine new trolley coaches being used, and
has resulted in improved service on this line. This trolley coach oper-
ation was made possible due to the withdrawal of a taxpayers' suit
which had previously held up expenditure of funds for purchase of
trolley coaches and construction of overhead wiring and housing fa-
MONDAY, JANUARY 26. 1942 147
cilities. Funds for the purchase of new motor coaches and other addi-
tion and betterment items were also made available by settlement of
this suit.
Car and coach hours operated for the year increased 4,193 hours or
.40%. All available street cars and coaches owned by the Municapal
Railway are now in operation during peak hours of travel. The five
new modern type street cars which were placed in operation in 1939
and the nine new trolley coaches placed in operation this year have
proved exceedingly popular with the public, indicating that it is advis-
able to operate as many more new modern street cars and coaches
as can be purchased from available funds.
After providing for the cost of increased motor and trolley coach
service and increasing the provision for depreciation to $398,632 and
providing $122,670 for accidents for the year, a net income of $140,783
has resulted. This is $42,979 under the previous year and is accounted
for principally by reason of increased operating expenses in the year
1941 due to new bus line extensions and higher wage and material
costs.
Track roadway and equipment have been maintained in excellent
condition, the sum of $464,694 having been expended for this purpose.
Included in this maintenance work was the overhauling and painting
of thirty-eight street car bodies and nine motor coaches. In connection
with the painting of street cars and coaches, the new combination of
blue and gold colors is being used in place of the old "municipal gray"
used prior to 1940.
Expenditures for new construction, equipment, and replacements
amounted to $485,581. The major items included in this amount are
the following:
Track replacement — Geary Street — Divisadero to Lyon and Jor-
dan to Tenth Avenues $144,702
Howard Street trolley coach line construction and facilities 111,558
Nine new trolley coaches 118,584
Ten new 26-passenger motor coaches 80,839
Two new 31-passenger motor coaches ,.... 20,237
Funds are available, but no expenditures have been made to date for
the following:
New motor coach garage $160,000
Purchase of 13 new motor coaches 135,000
During the year under track maintenance and replacements, 10,962
feet of single track was reconstructed, 645 thermit weld joints were
installed, 140,337 square feet of concrete base 7" deep was renewed and
228,979 square feet of asphalt paving replaced.
On December 1, the sum of $100,000 in bonds of the railway was
retired from earnings so that there now remains an indebtedness of
only $1,100,000 against the Municipal Railway properties which are
conservatively valued at $10,000,000.
Over 108,700,000 passengers were carried during the year, which is
a decrease of 122,000 passengers under the previous year, but still one
of the highest records in the history of the Municipal Railway. Street
cars and coaches traveled a distance of 10,247,000 miles, which is an
increase of 102,600 miles over last year. Cars and coaches operated
1,062,500 hours, or 4,200 hours more than the previous year.
Passenger receipts which showed an increase of 2.51% in October,
1941, and 2.75% in November, 1941, over the previous year, showed a
marked drop in December, 1941, due to evening travel having fallen
off due to war conditions. It is hoped that this condition will not
prevail to such an extent in the year 1942 and that the normal evening
travel will be revived. Assuming this travel is revived and that the
great volume of war expenditures to be made by the Federal Govern-
ment reflects itself in the railway business, and also that private au-
148 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
tomobile operation may have to be curtailed, it is reasonable to look
forward to increased railway receipts in 1942.
Water Department
The Water Department continues to be a sound and successful muni-
cipal enterprise. During the past year — the twelfth under municipal
operation — somewhat greater than normal gains were registered, both
as to the number of consumers served and as to profits earned. It is
worthy of note that these increased profits are over and above those of
the previous year when the Exposition undoubtedly accounted for
considerable revenue.
Water sales for the year amounted to $7,545,396 and net income from
operations was $3,069,002, as compared to $3,090,629 for the preceding
year. The apparent decrease of $21,627 in net income is due to an
increase of $330,639 in payments to the Hetch Hetchy Water Supply
for water and standby charges. Adjusting for this item, net income
for the year shows a very substantial increase of $309,012. This in-
crease is the net result of a $247,745 increase in water sales, a decrease
of $1,061 in miscellaneous income, and a net decrease of $62,328 in
operating expense due mainly to decreased bond interest expense.
The water sales increase of $247,745 represents a gain of $235,685 in
revenue, an increase of $41,678 in service furnished to non-paying
municipal accounts and a decrease of $29,618 in service to the Golden
Gate International Exposition Company.
The increase of $235,685 in revenue sales was accounted for by a
2.9% increase in San Francisco amounting to $162,321 and by a 15.3%
increase in the suburban district amounting to $73,364. The San Fran-
cisco gain was largely concentrated in the last quarter of the year,
while the suburban gain was general throughout the year.
Water consumption again reached an all-time high with an average
of 7 million gallons daily for the year. This was a gain of 2.9 million
gallons daily over the preceding year and was accounted for by in-
creases of 1.4 million gallons daily in San Francisco and 1.5 million
gallons daily in the suburban district.
The number of active consumers in San Francisco increased to 127,-
100; a gain of 4,352 for the past year as compared to a gain of 3.647
for the preceding year. A total of 16 miles of new mains was added
to the distribution system in the city and 5,400 new service connections
were installed for a gain of 663 over the 4,737 installed during the pre-
vious year.
These increases in the number of consumers and in new consumer
installations approximate those of the middle 1920's and provide the
potential for a corresponding increase in water usage, particularly in
the residential areas comprising the higher elevation distribution dis-
tricts.
Existing transmission and distribution facilities cannot meet any
further increase in water usage in these higher elevation districts.
Present demands can be cared for only by virtue of two electric
pumps installed during the year to temporarily provide for the imme-
diate shortage in the Stanford Heights district. Considerable progress
has been made on the construction program designed to permanently
provide for these residential areas by means of an additional outlet
and pipe line from the San Andreas reservoir in San Mateo County
and a new 500-foot-elevation distribution reservoir in San Francisco.
Funds for the San Andreas outlet have been provided from Water
Department revenues and construction of temporary pumping plants
is now under way to enable lowering of the lake for construction of
the outlet. Also an ISj^-acre tract of land located in Sutro Forest has
been purchased as a site for the proposed new distribution reservoir.
The past winter's rainfall on the local watersheds was appi'oximately
25% above normal and at the end of the run-off season all reservoirs
MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942 149
were filled to the point of overflow. This prolific local runoff precluded
the necessity of drawing on the Hetch Hetchy system for other than
sufficient water to supply some of the suburban consumers during the
winter period of excessive turbidity in the Calaveras reservoir. Local
storage at the close of the year was approximately 43,000 million gal-
lons or the equivalent of a 600-day supply.
A resume of the financial results of city's operation of the Water
Department from March 3, 1930. to December 31, 1941, shows gross
income of $82,972,367 and operating expenses of $49,109,439. The net
income of $33,862,928 was used for:
Contributions to General Fund for Hetch Hetchy bond in-
terest and redemption $10,262,630
Contributions to Hetch Hetchy system , ^ 3,246,126
Redemption of Water Department bonds 14,313,094
Additions and betterments 5,953,718
Surplus and miscellaneous 87,360
In addition to this net income, the Water Department has furnished
water service free of charge to various other city departments to the
amount of $4,563,600, and through a series of rate reductions has
saved water consumers in excess of $7,000,000 as compared to rates
under the former private ownership.
Hetch Hetchy Water Supply,
Power and Utilities Engineering Bureau
Hetch Hetchy Water Supply
The close of the calendar year 1941 marked the seventh year of suc-
cessful and uninterrupted operation of the Hetch Hetchy Water Supply
for its primary purpose of augmenting the water supply of San Fran-
cisco, and the sixteenth of the attendant power system. Water storage
in the reservoirs in the High Sierra was substantial and sufl^cient for
all power and domestic water supply demands. The quantity of water
originating in the Hetch Hetchy source and transmitted to San Fran-
cisco's local system was less than in the previous years, due to excep-
tionally high rainfall during the winter of 1940-1941, but nevertheless
formed a large part of the water being served to San Francisco. Main-
tenance work necessary to keep the properties in first-class operating
condition was continued, and several contracts and other items of
work for improvements and additions to the properties were performed.
Inspection of the miles of tunnels and large pipe lines comprising
this system indicated that these features of the project are in excellent
condition. Litigation pertaining to Hetch Hetchy water rights, par-
ticularly the so-called "Dan Williams case," in which a judgment favor-
able to the City was entered on May 16, 1941, was successfully de-
fended during the year. Amicable relations with the Turlock, Modesto,
and Waterford Irrigation Districts with reference to the use of the
waters of the Tuolumne River, continued throughout the year, in ac-
cordance with an agreement made in 1940 in which all parties pledged
themselves to cooperate in the use of these waters, and under which
pending litigation is postponed for a period of fifteen years. Surveying
and planning, begun in the summer of 1940, for the development of
the Cherry River source of water supply, were continued during the
year 1941. This work is being done to protect the City's water rights,
and will be continued in the future.
Hetch Hetchy Power
The power generating facilities of the Hetch Hetchy system con-
tinued in full operation throughout the year 1941. The amount of
electricity generated was substantially the same as for previous years
— practically equal to the full capacity of the existing plants.
In addition to routine maintenance of the pi'operties, several items
150 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
of work for improvements and additions to the properties were per-
formed.
Following the ruling of the United States Supreme Court on April
22, 1940, that the existing agency agreement with the Pacific Gas and
Electric Company violates Section 6 of the Raker Act, efforts were
made to determine a method of disposal of power in a manner con-
forming to this ruling. Lacking distribution facilities, this ruling,
which sustained an injunction against disposal of Hetch Hetchy power
under the present arrangement, left the City with no other market
available, and the possibility of the loss of the much needed annual
revenue of about $2,400,000. Negotiations were initiated immediately
with the Secretary of the Interior, in an effort to arrange power dis-
posal plans acceptable to the Federal Government. A lease arrange-
ment contemplating formal compliance with the requirements of the
Raker Act was approved as to form by Secretary Ickes on December
5, 1940, but the Secretary rejected the complete lease agreement fol-
lowing a public hearing held in Washington beginning May 21, 1941.
This left the City about to enter a new fiscal year facing the prospect
of complete loss of its power revenue, but by agreement an extension
to June 30, 1942 of the effective date of the injunction was obtained,
subject to certain stipulations. Pursuant to one of these stipulations,
in the election held November 4, 1941 a popular vote was taken on
a revenue bond proposition to provide for a municipal system for
transmission of power to San Francisco and distribution by the City
direct to consumers. Approval of the plan for this system was obtained
from the Secretary of the Interior. The Mayor, the Public Utilities
Commission, and the Manager of Utilities, and others actively sup-
ported this bond proposition, but it failed to gain the necessary ma-
jority of votes cast. At the close of the year proceedings are in prog-
ress for a revision of the Raker Act to eliminate the language on
which the injunction is based.
Utilities Engineering and Construction
During the year, satisfactory progress was made on Municipal Rail-
way, Airport, and other utility engineering and construction activities
for which the Engineering Bureau of the Public Utilities Commission
is responsible.
At the termination, by a decision favorable to the City, of a tax-
payer's suit which delayed this work, the Howard Street trolley bus
line was put into condition for use. A reinforced concrete addition to
the Seventeenth Street car barn was constructed to provide shop
facilities and storage space for the electric trolley buses, and terminal
loops were constructed at the ends of the line.
Contracts were entered into and completed for the reconstruction of
long sections of the old and much depreciated Geary Street tracks,
this work being a continuation of work carried on during previous
years; and also during the year, other improvements were made to
rolling stock and trackage of the railroad.
The preparation of plans and specifications and the supervision and
construction of work at the San Francisco Airport continued actively
during the year. Under a program for the improvement of landplane
and seaplane ports at this airport, with funds available from the 1938
bond issue augmented by contributions from the Federal Government
through the Works Progress Administration, extensive construction of
concrete aprons, pavements, and taxiway pavements was accomplished,
in addition to the placing of about 1,000,000 square feet of macadam
pavement for runway extensions and taxiways. Improvements and ex-
tensions were made to the sewage disposal, power distribution, and
field lighting systems. A major item of work, begun last spring, is
the construction of the administration building and of the extensive
hangar and shop building and other air terminal facilities being pro-
vide4 near the northwesterly corner of the airport properties east of
MONDAY, JANUARY 26. 1942 151
Bayshore Highway, to be used under lease by the United Air Lines
as their terminal office and shop headquarters. The office staff of the
United Air Lines moved into the new administration building October
15, 1941. The other buildings will be ready for occupancy in the spring
of 1942.
Treasure Island Airport
During the year, events pertaining to Treasure Island moved rapidly.
Early in December of 1940, preliminary arrangements were made for
the Navy's occupancy of the island for the period of the national
emergency. These arrangements culminated in a lease agreement
dated February 3, 1941, which provided for the Navy to occupy all of
Treasure Island, except that portion leased to Pan American Airways
Corporation and that portion in the immediate vicinity of the Air
Terminal Building. The Navy was also granted the use of one-third
of the Administration Building. The lease is on a year-to-year basis,
with the right of annual renewal, for a maxium period of five years.
As a consideration for the rights granted by the City, the Navy spon-
sored a Works Project Administration project in the amount of
$■1,680,000, for the construction of two intersecting runways, connect-
ing taxiways, aprons, field lighting and drainage systems, rehabilita-
tion of buildings and utilities, and much other work essential to an
airport ready for operation for either military or civil purposes. Work
under this project commenced immediately following ground breaking
ceremonies held April 24, 1941, and considerable progress has been
made in preparing foundations for the runway pavements, construc-
tion of concrete floor and installation of electric distribution system
in the east hangar, construction of concrete apron pavement outside
the hangar, construction of boundary fences, and construction of cer-
tain water supply and electric power and telephone lines, and other
items.
Activities on this proejct were slowed down towards the end of the
year, but it is expected they will pick up in the early part of this year.
The Navy has expended large sums of money in improvements on
Treasure Island for its use, and has a personnel of about 1,000 men
now stationed on the island. This work and the establishment of a
Navy Base at this point is a distinct benefit to San Francisco.
Street and Public Building Lighting
During the calendar year 525 new lights were added to San Francis-
co's street lighting system and 722 lights of obsolete types were replaced
by modern units. This increase makes a total of 24,750 lights now in
service in the streets.
Of the 525 lights added. 160 are part city-owned and part company-
owned, while 165 are wholly city-owned. The remaining 200 lights are
wholly company-owned and were installed at scattered locations through-
out the rapidly growing residential sections.
The 165 wholly city-owned lights represent an investment of $52,000
and were installed by property owners and deeded to the city, the city
to defray the maintenance and operating costs thereof.
The city now owns over 15% of the total number of street lights,
representing an investment well in excess of one million dollars.
The candlepower of a large number of lights along the boulevards
was increased during the year, which has resulted in better lighting
and fewer traffic accidents at night. In spite of the increased cost of
operating the larger lamps, the unit cost per light was lower than before
because of the city's ownership of a greater percentage of the lighting
system.
The consumption of gas and electricity by the various departments
increased in proportion to the increased activities of the municipality,
which, of course, resulted in a higher cost. But the unit cost was lower
152 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
because of more economical use of facilities and lower rates obtainable
through the efforts of this department.
San Francisco Airport
During the past year San Francisco Airport has advanced from the
position of a major air terminal to that of an important aviation cen-
ter. Visitors to this public utility of the City and County of San Fran-
cisco will now find that the airport administrative area and hangars
have been flanked on the north by two additional building areas. One
is the new Western Division Headquarters of the United Air Lines
Transport Corporation, on a 14-acre plot of airport property, and the
other the U. S. Coast Guard Air Base, occupying some 21 acres.
The United Air Lines base is made up of a huge hangar with shop
annexes, a streamlined administration building, an engine test building,
and a gasoline storage building. The Coast Guard Air Base consists of
a spacious hangar surrounded by shops, a barracks capable of housing
110 ofl^cers and men, a wharf, and a ramp.
Some 180 employees of United Air Lines are already stationed at the
new airline headquarters, and more than 400 more will arrive with
completion of the construction work early in 1942.
The U. S. Coast Guard base was officially dedicated on February 15,
1941. The seaplane harbor on which the base is located, and the chan-
nel leading to the harbor have been dredged, marked and lighted.
Office space in the airport's Administration Building is now at a
premium. In May, 1941, the U. S. Weather Bureau established a new
consolidated forecast office at the airport. Its quarters, occupied by a
complement of 24 employees, cover about one-half of the mezzanine
floor. Agricultural forecasts for the five western states, and airway
forecasts for Northern California and east to Utah, emanate from this
new forecast center at San Francisco Airport.
The new Transpacific radio station of the Civil Aeronautics Ad-
ministration now occupies a suite of offices adjacent to those of the
Weather Bureau. The transmitting station, capable of world-wide com-
munication, is to be operated by remote control from these airport
headquarters. Installation of the equipment was well under way at
the close of the calendar year.
A radio range station of the Civil Aeronautics Administration was
commissioned at San Francisco Airport in November, 1941. It will
be maintained by Government personnel. This facility is used to
guide pilots to and from the airport during periods of blind flying
weather.
A surge of air traffic which has been reported by San Francisco
Airport the past few years continued in impressive proportions dur-
ing the year 1941. In every branch of the traffic tabulation a sub-
stantial increase is shown. Airline passengers in and out of the
airport passed the 200,000 mark, representing an increase of 28 per
cent over the previous year. Air mail, air express, and the number
of airline schedules all showed decided increases over 1940. The traffic
tabulation is as follows:
Total for Increase over
1941 1940
Passengers (in and out) 201,000 28%
Air mail poundage (on only) 891,000 32%
Air express poundage (on only) 301.600 31%
Transport planes (in and out) 25, GOO 18%
As the year 1941 was brought to a close, the schedules operated by
United Airlines and Transcontinental & Western Air at San Francisco
Airport total 35 arrivals and 35 departures daily. However, during
the fair weather months of summer and fall these daily schedules
reached as high as 42 arrivals and 42 departures.
In the development of the landing field proper the major field
MONDAY, JANUARY 26. 1942 153
enlargement program has been carried steadily forward. The three
runways, all of which have been repaved. now measure 4,500 feet,
5,500 feet, and 6,000 feet in length. An additional hard macadam
landing strip measures 3,000 feet in length.
New drainage pumps have been installed to handle the additional
areas being annually added to the landing area.
Since the declaratiton of war on December 8, 1941, the operation
of civil aircraft, with the exception of airline aircraft, has been for-
bidden in this district by the Federal Government. The 60 commercial
and privately owned planes based at San Francisco Airport are there-
fore temporarily inactive.
The airport's value from a military standpoint is, of course, recog-
nized. The field is being adequately equipped by the U. S. Army not
only for defense of the airport proper, but also to serve as a unit in
providing protection to the San Francisco Bay area as a whole.
Emergency defense measures had been planned by the airport
management prior to the declaration of war, and all necessary pre-
cautions against sabotage and attack were therefore carried out
immediately after word was received of the bombing of Pearl Harbor.
Park Commission
During the year 1941, many improvements were made to add to the
attractiveness, as well as the usefulness, of the parks and squares under
the jurisdiction of the Board of Park Commissioners. One of the
most progressive steps to aid the traffic and parking problems of our
city was taken after the Supreme Court of the State of California
ruled that the Commission had the authority to lease the subsurface
of Union Square for a public garage. By a 50-year lease agreement
entered into with the Union Square Garage Corporation, a public garage
to accommodate 1,700 automobiles was begun in March to be com-
pleted within a period of twelve months at a cost of $1,500,000. Under
the terms of this lease agreement the garage will revert to the City
and County of San Francisco when the lease is terminated. Upon com-
pletion of the garage structure the surface of the park will be restored
with a beautifully landscaped area that will greatly enhance the sur-
roundings of this district.
The Aquatic Park Recreational Center was reopened under a new
policy whereby the Commission now operates the entire premises as
a recreation center for the people of this city. At the request of the
San Francisco Hospitality and Welfare Committee for Service Men,
the Commission set aside several nights each month for dances for
Service Men, and since the inception of this policy, thousands of sol-
diers and sailors have been treated to wholesome recreation activities
in this building. The Parent-Teacher Associations have also used these
premises on various occasions for high school dances.
An exhibition of model boats, made possible through the generosity
of the San Francisco Museum of Science and Industry, is on display
in the Blue Room, and in the first seven months over 80,000 people
attended this instructive show, which is free to the public. School
Department rowing activities also use the Aquatic Park Center, while
thousands of people enjoy themselves on the newly constructed beach
made possible by the transportation of 150,000 cu. yds. of sand from
the excavation of Union Square.
Major improvements to park properties, especially to the Recrea-
tion Division, included the painting of seats at Kezar Stadium and
the rehabilitation of the entrances and the exits, at a cost of $25,000;
the construction of four new fairways and greens at Sharp Park, there-
by making this golf course one of the finest in the country; the con-
struction of the third unit at Yacht Harbor, and other improvements
to the sanctuary for pleasure craft, at an expense of close to $35,000;
and the resurfacing of the South Drive as far west as 19th Avenue, by
the Works Progress Administration.
154 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
Throughout the year the Commission has worked in close coopera-
tion with military authorities and in the early part of the year the
Palace of Fine Arts tennis courts were turned over to the United
States Army to be used as a medical warehouse; while on many occa-
sions the military authorities used the properties in Golden Gate
Park to quarter the men during maneuvers and defense programs.
Other properties under the jurisdiction of the Commission have been
turned over to the United States Army and Navy, to be employed in
the National Defense Program.
On September 1st, under the provisions of a charter amendment
voted on by an overwhelming majority, 557 employees were placed
under Civil Service, thereby making it possible for a reorganization
of the entire department, including the administrative staff, which, no
doubt, will enable the department to function and operate in a more
efficient manner.
Recreation Commission
During the past year, due to the national emergency having placed
increasing strain on American life, we were fully awakened to the
value of physical fitness for all the people.
Military authorities and the nation's leaders recognize the important
place recreation has in the national defense and wartime program.
These are difficult and extraordinary times, but men, women and chil-
dren should go on living as normal, wholesome, vigorous lives as pos-
sible. Civilian morale must be conserved, sane attitudes on the part
of youth must be maintained, and a continued happy play life for
children must be provided. One sure way to build toward a stronger
national life is to provide the people with safe, enjoyable recreation in
their leisure time.
During the past year the Recreatiton Department in addition to its
regular program conducted activities for men in the service and offered
programs to civilians that stimulated patriotism and loyalty to our
American ideals and traditions. Athletic leagues on playgrounds and
in the night gymnasia, socials and dances at the community centers,
and the use of camera and craft facilities have been fully enjoyed
by the men in uniform. Opportunities for prospective draftees to
physically prepare themselves for their period of service have been
offered to all, through cooperation of the local selective draft boards.
The Recreation Department's growth and increased service were
shown in many ways and the outstanding developments are given spe-
cial mention, as follows:
Plans foi'mulated three years ago for the establishment and opera-
tion of a children's day camp in San Francisco were brought to fruition.
A children's summer vacation day camp was operated for the first
time this year in the canyon back of the Glen Park Playground. Chil-
dren were given the thrills of camp life, a taste of the outdoors, health-
ful play in the sun, and plenty of good food, for one week at the Glen
Park Day Camp. The children were recruited from city playgrounds,
fifty-five assigned from a different playground each week. As the sea-
son advanced, the number assigned was raised from sixty to seventy
each week. The total number of children attending the camp was 714.
All food except fresh milk was supplied through the Surplus Food
Commodities Bureau. The San Francisco Junior Chamber of Commerce
obtained the milk from local dairies. Average weight gain per child
was between 2i/^ and 3 pounds in one week. Some children registered
individual weight gains as high as 6 pounds. A municipal bus pro-
vided transportation to and from the camp. Unquestionably a success,
plans are under way to enlarge the camp activities next summer.
Recreation units, all of which are supervised, were increased to 93.
Three new playgrounds were added: Sunset Playground at 28th Ave-
nue and Lawton Street; Corona Heights, Roosevelt and 25th Streets;
and Francis Scott Key Center at 42nd Avenue near Judah Street.
MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942 155
Four additional school gymnasia were supervised for night activities,
bringing the total to fourteen units. The new gymnasia were Poly-
technic High School, Lowell High School, Denman Junior High School,
and Horace Mann Junior High School.
In July, the department started operation of the Crystal Palace Baths,
large indoor swimming pool leased by the City and County of San
Francisco for one year.
The healthful benefits of swimming and aquatic sports are now avail-
able to all children throughout the city, and the program has proved
most successful.
For the fifth consecutive summer, schoolyards were operated as play-
grounds during the vacation period. This season 38 were supervised for
an eleven weeks' period.
Eighty-three industrial and commercial firms were members of the
industrial division, participating in the all-year sport and social cal-
endar.
Average total weekly attendance for all recreation units throughout
the year was 120,000 persons.
General maintenance and special repair work of buildings and
grounds included the repaving of several tennis and basketball courts,
as well as play areas, and the regrading of all baseball diamonds as
needed. An advanced floodlighting system is being installed at Funston
Playground in anticipation of the evening activities of men stationed
at the Presidio, and to meet the demand for night games in the Marina
district.
The weekly bulletin announcing department activities, and for-
merly mimeographed, has now been issued in new printed form.
There is an established mailing list of 1,500. This four-page publica-
tion has increased the public interest in the service offered.
The municipal recreation camp at Mather for city residents reached
its guest capacity this year. The greater part of the season was sold
out before the opening of camp. The construction of a new water-supply
system located entirely upon city-owned property was installed and
was nearing completion at the end of the fiscal year. Elimination of
the danger of contaminated water supply was also accomplished
through the installation of a chlorinator. Working drawings for a
large social hall at camp where vacationists may enjoy evening recre-
ation were completed. Establishment of this proposed structure will re-
lieve the awkward situation in which the dining room is converted into
a social hall between meal hours.
A survey of the department's accounts and records was undertaken
by the office of the Controller and a new program developed in which
the departmental accounting procedures and forms were revised.
The new program recommended by the Controller's office has been
placed in effective operation.
New regulations governing employment at camp have increased the
efficiency of the personnel and have more equitably distributed the
work for camp attendants.
The fourth season of Sigmund Stern Grove Midsummer Musicals
began on June 15, 1941. These free concerts present excellent musical
talent, a variety of programs, and were attended to Grove capacity.
Fifteen concerts had an average attendance of 6,000 per Sunday.
The playground at Ninth Avenue and Ortega Street, formerly known
as Ortega Playground, was renamed the John P. Murphy Playground
in honor of the late John P. Murphy, former Recreation Commissioner
and beloved civic leader.
A more detailed account of the department's activities is to be found
in the annual report of the Commission for the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1941.
156 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
City Planning Commission
In the annual report concerning the affairs of this department as
submitted for tlie year 1940 was expressed the hope that sufficient
monies would be appropriated in the budget of the department for the
fiscal year 1940-41 to permit commencement of studies toward the
making of a Master Plan for the physical development of the city and
county. The Commission is pleased to report that this hope has been,
in part, realized and by the providing of funds requested the actual
work of preparing the Master Plan is now under way. In this con-
nection, the services of a city planning consultant have been con-
tracted for whereby the consultant will aid and advise the local plan-
ning staff in the preparation of the plan.
Since the commencement of work, the staff of the department has
been increased — some additional equipment and enlargement of work-
ing space has been provided. It appears a proper time to point out
the invaluable information, consisting of reports, surveys and other
pertinent data heretofore collected, that is being utilized and analyzed
in connection with the work. Surveys and reports that have been, on
numerous occasions, referred to as "just another report" for the city
archives are being minutely perused and use will be made of their
contents.
Complete cooperation is manifested to date, and continued coopera-
tion has been assured by all agencies of the municipal government in
the Master Plan undertaking. Exhaustive study and consideration is
being given to the end that legislation will be enacted by the legisla-
tive body putting into the plan itself necessary mandatory provisions
for its achievement and ultimate fulfillment.
The following is a resume of Commission ordinary routine activities:
A total of 122 applications for changes in zoning classification were
filed during tlie first eleven months of the year 1941. Of this total,
80 applications were approved, 18 disapproved, 9 withdrawn and 15 were
awaiting action at the time of this report. In addition to the consid-
eration of applications for the reclassification of properties, some 20
'•equests for changes, establishment or abolishment of building set-
back lines were considered and disposed of. These figures, as com-
pared with similar activities reported for last year, indicate a slight
decrease due unquestionably to the inability of builders and real
estate operators to secure building materials, and the National De-
fense program.
In compliance with Section 24 of the Charter, all licenses and per-
mits issued by the various licensing departments of the municipal
government have been cleared through the office as to compliance with
the zoning ordinance. A great number of such permits (7,942 for the
first eleven months of 1941 ) are transmitted to this office by the Central
Permit Bureau, and consist entirely of building permits for new con-
struction and alterations to existing buildings. In addition to building
permits, all licenses issued by the Tax Collector's Office, Department
of Health, Police Department and the Fire Department have been ex-
amined by this office and cleared, prior to their issuance by the re-
spective departments. This particular phase of the Commission's activ-
ity has brought about a very noticeable decrease in enforcement duties
as are imposed by the zoning ordinance upon the various enforcing
agencies; and in addition has eliminated, to a large extent, citizen
complaints to this office.
The WPA Citywide Mapping Project, sponsored by the Commission,
has as yet not completed its work, as had l)een anticipated and men-
tioned in this department's report for last year. This is due to the fact
that for a considerable part of the year the project had been closed
down. About two months ago the project was reopened and the work
is l)eing diligently prosecuted and in the matter of a few months
should be entirely completed. The Commission is receiving weekly
several hundred prints of the block maps as they are completed. This
MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942 157
information will not alone be valuable in the work of this department,
but will also be found of value by the Assessor, Fire Department, De-
partment of Public Works, Water Department and other municipal
agencies concerned with the physical development of the city.
In the matter of subdivision control, the Commission has reported
on six subdivisions in 1941 and presently proposes to submit ordinances
to the Board of Supervisors for legislative action limiting the size and
area of lots in certain undeveloped sections of the city. If this legisla-
tion be approved, we, for the first time, will have legislative authority
for the limiting of lot sizes in new subdivisions.
Board of Permit Appeals
The Board of Permit Appeals is comparable to the Small Claims
Court, inasmuch as appeals can be taken from the various departments
and commissions having granting and revoking power with regard
to permits and licenses, without any cost whatever. There are five
members appointed to sit as an Appellate Court with regard to per-
mits and licenses, although the members of this Board are laymen.
On numerous occasions appeals were taken wherein a permit was
denied due to a minor infraction of the law. In certain instances
methods were suggested by which minor changes could be made, to
conform with the law, and the permit could then be granted.
As an example of the benefits which have accrued to the citizens of
San Francisco from the decision of this Board, the case of a plant
wishing to invest one million dollars in a structure and employing
several hundred men is cited. Construction was stopped on this
plant due to a minor infraction of the building code. Through the
medium of this Board, an adjustment was made, satisfactory to all
concerned.
Another example was the case of a large structure on Market Street,
to which another floor was to be added. Due to a minor infraction of
the building code, work was stopped on this project. At the request
of the Executive Office of the President of the United States, this
Board, in view of the present emeergcncy, took this matter under con-
sideration and brought both parties to a legal solution, agreeable to
the Executive Office of the President.
There are many examples of small neighborhood projects, as well
as large industrial and commercial projects, which have been adjusted
to the satisfaction of all parties concerned. During the year, 102 ap-
peals were heard. These were taken from actions by the following
officials and departments:
Fire Department. 3; Health Department, 4; Department of Public
Works, 81; Police Department, 13; Tax Collector. 1. Rehearings
granted, 5; pending, 7.
It is the aim of this department to dispose of causes before it as
rapidly as possible. As in the past, the utmost diligence was pursued
in 1941.
War Memorial
The San Francisco War Memorial, consisting of the Veterans' Build-
ing, the Opera House and the Art Museum, is considered the most
outstanding memorial to deceased veterans in the Nation.
San Francisco's Opera House, opened on October 15, 1932, is the only
municipally owned building of its kind in the United States. The
ever-increasing use of all the facilities has developed to such a degree
that the Opera House is now accepted by the world of culture as being
the most outstanding structure in the United States devoted to the
presenation of grand opera, symphonies, ballets, concerts and various
other cultured activities. It is estimated that over a half million per-
sons attended the 141 attractions presented in 1941.
The Opera House also had its place in the National Defense pro-
gram. Programs were presented to the citizens by the United States
158 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
Army, various other agencies and the Council of Civilian Defense.
The presentation of the "Wizard of Ord" by the Seventh Division,
United States Army, will long be remembered.
This structure has housed and encouraged the continued existence
of the San Francisco Opera Association. San Francisco has received
tremendous publicity by reason of the worldwide circulation of the
Opera Association's announcements of grand opera and concerts.
The San Francisco Symphony Association annually presents a regu-
lar series of symphonies. The acoustics of the Opera House are so
perfect that these symphonies equally are enjoyed by all attending; in
fact, the seats at the highest elevation are oftentimes deemed most
desirable.
San Francisco high schools, the Junior College and the University
of San Francisco have found the use of the Opera House fitting and
proper for the holding of their graduation exercises. The presentation
of noted lecturers and speakers from all parts of the world is another
use which is made of the Opera House.
The use of the Art Museum, located on the fourth floor of the Vet-
erans' Building, has rapidly increased. The art displays are varied
and are advantageously displayed because of the highly efficient light-
ing arrangement.
The Veterans' Building, undeniably the finest and most practical
structure for that purpose in the world, was built in memory of the
World War dead and equipped to serve those ex-service men and
women who have served in the armed forces of their country. The
facilities of this building include offices, meeting halls, clul)rooms
and auditorium, and are continually used by approximately 175 organ-
izations of veteran groups. During the current year numerous classes
in first aid work, under the direction of the American Red Cross, were
sponsored by the various veteran organizations in this building. Many
other programs of National Defense importance were presented. Reg-
istrations of volunteers for the Civilian Defense units and the United
States Army Interceptor Command have been conducted in this build-
ing. Its facilities have been used by the United States Navy in the re-
cruiting program, on many occasions. The total annual attendance in
this building is conservatively estimated at one-half million. The War
Memorial represents a total investment as a capital asset of $6,250,000.
The buildings are of modern construction, incorporating many intri-
cate mechanical conveniences in operation. Because of these facilities
it is necessary that the personnel be of a highly specialized type whose
duty it is to keep in full operating efficiency all services provided for
the comfort of the attending public.
The War Memorial is operated under the direction of the Board of
Trustees of the War Memorial through its managing director, as set by
ordinance.
The President of the Board during 1941 was Mr. Ramsay Moran.
Art Commission
Nature has endowed San Francisco with a lavish hand. And man has
built on Nature's gift with intuitive haphazardry, until the intangible
thing that is San Francisco's fascination is universally conceded. Ugli-
nesses that have crept in are forgiven. But as years go on, bringing
maturity, her beauty must stand scrutiny for perfection of detail. It
is then that her music, her public buildings, her statuary, her museums,
her artistic and cultural achievements must meet the test.
Most of the larger cities of the United States have delegated matters
of public taste to an art commission which passes upon all public
buildings, artistic acquisitions, and serves as an arbiter in all mat-
ters of the aesthetic welfare of the municipality.
Ten years ago. with the establishment of the new charter, the Art
Commission came into existence. This group of artists, musicians,
architects, litterateurs and laymen of distinction has given time, study
MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942 159
and consideration to the artistic and cultural welfare of the com-
munitJ^
It will be recalled that at first the San Francisco Art Commission
was considered experimental. I am sure that it has been demonstrated
its responsibility in art and music is no longer the haphazard, indefi-
nite thing evident before it was brought into being.
During the last year rigid supervision of all works of art, placed in
parks, squares and buildings which belong to San Francisco, as well
as the architecture and alteration of public buildings, continued under
the rigid supervision of the Commission. The average layman does not
realize that not even a lamp post can be erected on city property until
its design has been approved. The submissions, considered and acted
upon by this board, have ranged from an inscription on a fiag to the
approach of the San Francisco Bay Bridge and the city's participation
in the Golden Gate International Exposition.
During the administration of the Art Commission, through the
efforts of J. Emmet Hayden, Chairman of the Music Committee, the
tax subsidy to maintain the famed San Francisco Symphony Orchestra
was established, and San Francisco was the first city in America to
subsidize a symphony orchestra by public mandate.
Last year saw the fulfillment of the prophecy of the Art Commis-
sion, five years ago: "Good music within the reach of all."
The net income of receipts derived by the Art Commission has in-
creased from $G,327 in 1935 to $35,000 in 1941. I believe this record
speaks for itself.
In these days of unrest, anxiety and sacrifice, we turn to the morale
and spiritual inspiration that music alone affords. That was the duty
of the Art Commission to provide. The members upheld their respon-
sibility ably.
What to do about concerts ir view of the war and the threatened
blackouts was quickly settled by the Commission on the night of De-
cember 16. 1941. It opened its Symphony Series as had been scheduled,
and six thousand people came to the Auditorium and cheered.
M. H. de Young Memorial Museum
The de Young Museum had a very good year. The total attendance
through Deceml)er 15th was 619,063. that is. an increase of 72,560 over
the corresponding period in 1940.
Outstanding among exhibitions was the great exhibition, "The Paint-
ing of France Sinc/^ the French Revolution." obtained through the
cooperation of the French government, held from the middle of De-
cember, 1940, to the middle of January, 1941, which, after a spectacular
success in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles and Portland, is now hav-
ing a second showing at the museum. Separately shown during the
summer months was an important collection of drawings and water
colors of the 19th and 20th centuries which had been part of the original
group of French masterworks displayed in South America but which
had not reached us in time for the first showing of the paintings.
Other shows of special significance were retrospective exhibitions
of the works of the American painters George Grosz (March-April) and
George Biddle (July-August) ; European and American Costumes and
Accessories from 900 to 1900; two exhibitions of ancient Chinese art,
the first lent by Mr. Jan Kleijkamp of New York and the second as-
sembled from the collections of Mr. A. G. Voute, Mr. Eric Mayell, Mr.
Oscar Gerson and other bay region collectors.
Additional exhibitions included Photographs from the Print Clinic;
Lithographs by Henri Toulouse-Lautrec; Paiiatings. Drawings and
Water Colors by Man Ray; Contemporary Batiks by Missouri Artists;
Javanese Batiks from the Templeton Crocker Collection; Photographs —
Southern California Council of Camera Clubs; Photographs by John
Gutmann; Native Arts of the Philippine Islands; Photographs of the
160 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
B-19 by Lawrence Kronquist; "Cries of London" Engravings after the
Paintings by Francis Wheatley; Colo)' Prints by Louis Bonnet; Paint-
ings of Asiatic Costumes by tlie Vicomtesse d'Aumale, supplemented
by original costumes; Monthly Exhibitions for the Blind and Flower
Arrangements by Students of Web Allen.
In May the museum opened its new "Hall of Arms" which gives in an
attractive and instructive display a survey of six centuries of man's
weapons from all parts of the world. The exhibit was favorably com-
mented upon by leaders of our armed forces and in view of the present
situation of our country has taken on additional significance.
Among the acquisitions during the year were a "Portrait of a Girl
in Peasant Costume," by the 17th century Neapolitan painter, Massimo
Stanzione. and a "Woman's Portrait" by the 17th century Venetian
painter, Gerolamo Forabosco, both donated by Mr. Archer M. Hunt-
ington. Several fine paintings (among them, works by Vigee-Lebrun,
Rosa Bonheur, Fortuny and others) and pieces of antique furniture,
porcelain, ancient weapons and jewelry were donated to the museum
by the family of the late Mr. de Young at the occasion of the disman-
tling of the old de Young house of California Street. Likewise, the
Oriental collections of the museum were considerably enriched by
quantities of Chinese and Japanese art objects received through the
will of the late Mr. Albert Bender, who for many years had already
been a constant benefactor of the museum. Other donations included
a collection of Kashmir shawls, gift of Miss Florence Olmsted; two
early American miniatures and costumes, gift of Miss Emily F.
Tucker; costumes and accessories, gift of Mrs. Philip Bancroft; a cos-
tume worn by Rosa Bonheui', gift of Miss Anna E. Klumpke; an ex-
quisite wood carving of the "Lamentation of Christ," German, early
16th century, and a Dutch armoire of the 17th century, both gifts of
the M. H. de Young Endowment Fund.
An acquisition of tremendous importance is the Monastery "Santa
Maria de Ovila" — or, rather, the complete set of thousands of carved
stones which originally made up its various buildings — donated to the
museum by Mr. William Randolph Hearst. The material is now stored
either inside or outside the museum and is carefully protected against
all hazards. It is to be hoped that in the not too distant future the
beautiful monastery will be erected to become undoubtedly not only one
of the greatest cultural and artistic monuments but also one of the
most spectacular tourist attractions of the entire country.
Last summer the museum started the publication of the "Pacific Art
Review," a richly illustrated art magazine containing articles on the
treasures of the museum as well as other topics written by members
of the staff and nationally known scholars. The first two issues have
been enthusiastically welcomed everywhere and the future prospects
of this magazine, which fills a long-felt need, appear very favorable.
In accordance with a resolution passed at the outbreak of the war
by the leading museums of the country following an explicit wish of
the President of the United States, the de Young Museum, fully aware
of its important function within the community for the strengthening
of public morale, plans instead of curtailing, rathei- to increase its activ-
ities, especially in the educational field. With regard to the collections,
it was furthei' resolved at the recent meeting of American art directors
in New York, which the Director of the de Young Museum attended,
that no evacuation of material should be undertaken at this time. How-
ever, the individual institutions were urged to prepare everything nec-
essary for removing speedily their most irreplaceable treasures to
places of greater safety in an emergency, and the Government was
asked to advise the museums through the National Gallery in Wash-
ington if and when the military situation required that such special
precautions be taken.
California Palace of the Legion of Honor
The California Palace of the Legion of Honor has enjoyed a remark-
MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942 161
ably successful year. Attendance at the museum during 1941 exceeded
200,000 — a gratifying increase over that of 1940. Stimulating loan ex-
hibitions presented each month, important additions to the permanent
collections, and an intensive educational program have been largely
responsible for these encouraging attendance figures.
Among the loan exhibtions of the past twelve months, three M^arrant
special comment. These were: Exhibition of Italian Baroque Paint-
ing, the most comprehensive show of its kind ever held in this country,
which comprised 120 examples of the work of the outstanding masters
of the 17th and 18th centuries borrowed from leading public and pri-
vate collections; Masterpieces of English Portaiture from the collec-
tion of the late Edward T. Stotesbury; and Miniature Rooms by Mrs.
James Ward Thorne. These shows were accorded an unusually enthu-
siastic reception.
Other exhibitions favorably received included the following: Old
Master Drawings from the collection of LeRoy M. Backus; Paintings
by Constance Richardson; Oils, Watercolors and Prints by Luigi Luci-
oni; 6th Annual Exhibtion of the California Watercolor Society; Un-
commissioned Portraits; Sculpture, Drawings and Prints by Ernst
Barlach (circulated by the Museum of Modern Art); English Color
Prints; Watercolors by Winslow Homer from the collection of Mrs.
Charles R. Henschel: Paintings by Manuel J. Tolegian; "American
Humor in Art" (original cartoons lent by Esquire Magazine); 13
Watercolorists; Paintings by Hari Kidd; Bronzes and Drawings by
Arthur Putnam; Watercolors by Edgar Bohlman; Illustrations and
Caricatures by Arthur Szyk; Oils, Watercolors and Drawings by Daniel
Rhodes; Paintings by Bessie Lasky; Watercolors by Edward Johan-
son and Richard Allman; Photographs of Bali by Philip Hanson Hiss;
Animals in Art; Exhibition of Paintings and Sculpture sponsored by
the Society for Sanity in Art; Photographs of the Madonna and Child
by George E. Stone; three exhibitions of 19th century American wood
engraving entitled "History in the Making," "Manners and Modes of
Yesterday" and "Days of Real Sport" (assembled by the American
National Committee of Engraving) ; The Work of Children in the
Saturday Morning Classes; and "Time and the Monuments," a Deco-
rative Mural with Preliminary Sketches by Eugene Berman.
In the course of the year notable additions were made to the Mildred
Anna Williams Collection. A generous bequest of the late Mrs. H. K. S.
Williams enabled the museum to acquire four outstanding master-
pieces: "Peasants Before Their House," by Louis Le Nain (1593-1648);
"Portrait of Mrs. Fitzherbert" by Thomas Gainsborough (1727-1788);
"Portrait of Giulio Gilardi" by Giovanni Battista Moroni (1510/25-
1578); "Lord Seaham as a Boy" by Sir Thomas Lawrence (1769-1830).
Mr. H. K. S. Williams further enriched the collection bearing his wife's
name by presenting the following paintings: "Still Life with Musical
Instruments" by Bartolommeo Bettera (1639-1699); "Portrait of the
Artist's Son" by Louis Leopold Boilly (1761-1845); "View on the River
Meuse" by Eugene Boudin (1824-1898); "Harbor Scene" by Jan Brue-
ghel, the Elder (1568-1625); "The Artist's Daughter" by Emile Carolus-
Duran (1838-1917); "Portrait of a Lady" by Thomas Couture (1815-
1879); "Still Life with Dog" by Jan Fyt (1611-1661); "Landscape with
Washerwoman" by Meindert Hobbema (1638-1709); "Cupid's Offering"
by Adolphe Monticelli (1824-1886) ; "Landscape at Sunset" by Aert van
der Neer (1603-1677); "Portrait of the Duchess of Argyll and Hamil-
ton" by Sir Joshua Reynolds (1723-1792); "Latona and the Frogs" by
David Teniers, the Younger (1610-1690); "Grand Canal, Venice" by
Felix Ziem (1821-1911).
Mr. Gordon Blanding presented to the City and County of San Fran-
cisco, for display at the California Palace of the Legion of Honor, his
collection of paintings, numbering eleven canvases by William Keith
(1839-1911), noted California painter, and representative works by
Albert Bierstadt (1830-1902), J. Wenglein (active second half of the
19th century), Lorenzo Latimer (1857-1941), and Eugene Verboeck-
162 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
hoven (1798-1881). Additions to the museum's already fine collection
of the work of the great French sculptor, Auguste Rodin (1840-1917),
were made by Mrs. Alma Spreckels Awl.
An illustrated guide to the permanent collections of the museum
is now in preparation and should be available for distribution shortly
after the first of the year. This publication will be followed by a
regular bulletin devoted to the activities of the museum.
Through the agency of a WPA project involving the expenditure of
about $40,000, the lower floor of the museum was extensively remod-
eled during 1941. Alterations included the constructiton of six new
exhibtion galleries in the south wing, the transfer of administrative
offices to the north wing of the lower floor, and the creation of a library,
together with quarters for the museum photographer and technical
department. These improvements have increased exhibition space at
the museum by approximately 30 per cent and have made possible the
more efficient dispatch of administrative functions.
More than 20,000 persons, or 10 per cent of the total attendance for
the year, availed themselves of the extensive educational activities
which are offered free of charge at the California Palace of the Legion
of Honor. In addition to regular gallery tours and special lectures in
connection with permanent and loan exhibits, these activities included
weekly art courses for adults, special discussion groups for colleges,
schools, clubs, and other organizations, Saturday morning clasess for
children, Saturday afternoon motion picture programs, radio broad-
casts, and week-end organ concerts.
In conclusion, it seems fitting to say a few words on the subject of
the part which the museum will be called upon to play under the con-
ditions brought about by the drastic developments of the past few
weeks. At a recent meeting of American museum directors in New
York, convoked for the express purpose of discussing this problem, it
was resolved that the museums of this country should now, more than
ever, continue their service to the public, doing everything in their
power to sustain public morale. Experience has proved that, in times
of stress and anxiety such as these, people instinctively fall back on
what may be termed their "natural resources" — instinctively cling to
and appreciate those things which do not change. In that category
the museum surely belongs, for, in the sense that it constantly affords a
place for the study and appreciation of beauty, a museum does not
change, however varied may be its program of activities. With this
though in mind, it is the intention of the California Palace of the Le-
gion of Honor to function as usual, meanwhile taking all possible
measures necessary to safeguard the museum and its contents during
the present emergency.
San Francisco Museum
Conditions of emergency since December 7 have somewhat affected
attendance, causing an abrupt drop even for this time of year, which is
normally quiet, during the first two days, with a gradual resumption
of almost the normal level thereafter.
This museum has carried on its normal activities, even at night, since
the outbreak of war, taking care simply to organize its staff into an
air raid precautions unit on the pattern of those on duty in museums
of Britain, and (-onforming carefully to l)lackout with provision for
caring foi' visitors during such periods. Fortunately, the director was
in attendance at the professional meetings of the American Association
of Art Museum Directors last May when procedure, precautions, and
policy for just such an event were thoroughly discussed, and the opin-
ion and advice of national and local governmental authorities con-
cerned were conveyed to the members. Thanks to this preparation,
organization was complete on Tuesday, December 9, and functioned
dui'ing the blackout of the preceding evening, and with perfection on
the following Friday.
In accord with announced policy, the museum has carried on and
MONDAY, JANUARY 26. 1942 163
plans to maintain and even to increase appropriate aspects of its func-
tions for tlie purpose of contributing to morale and to furnish that
recall to the eternal values of civilization which people need more than
ever in times of such tragedy as the present. Due measures have been
taken to safeguard collections, meanwhile. Plans for intensifying the
announced 1942 program of learning more about Latin American
countries through their art are being pushed even more vigorously
— for this impulse to understanding becomes more urgent in these
times.
Many members of the staff have registered for Civilian Defense in
addition to their regular work. Some have already been called to
the armed forces and others have entered defense work. We plan to
hold open the positions of any members called to the Army and Navy
who wish to return after the war.
During 1941, special defense work undertaken by the museum in-
cluded increased recreational and cultural activities and special invi-
tations to share in them extended to men in the services. Also during
the early months of 1941 the Director, Dr. Grace McCann Morley, was
lent to the Council of National Defense, office of the Coordinator of
Inter-American Affairs, to carry out a special mission in arranging art
exhibitions of North American painting in countries of Latin America.
She also served on the Advisory Committee on Art of the Division of
Cultural Relations of the Department of State in Washington, advising
on similar projects, and has been reappointed for the year 1941-1942.
The approximate general attendance for 1941, despite "blackouts," is
120,000.
The "educational" attendance — that is, people who came to attend
some special activity — is for 1941 approximately 27,000. More than
7,500 children attended special activities for them.
At the end of the year over 120 exhibitions of many types, includ-
ing contemporaiT painting, sculpture, prints, drawings, photography,
and decorative arts, were presented, furnishing a very complete survey
of the contemporary developments in the arts and related activities.
Of special interest were the Rouault, Murals of 28 States, Architecture
of the Bay Region, Paul Klee, Pictures at Work, Artists of the Upper
Mississippi, and the three ail-American Annuals of the San Francisco
Art Association.
Museum activities and notices of art activities in line of duty by
staff members occupied more than 4,500 inches of space in newspapers
outside of San Francisco during the year. More than 1,200 inches were
given to it in periodicals of national circulation during the same
period — advertising of San Francisco's cultural leadership which is
of the highest value in bringing appreciation of the city's position in
the country.
The actve service of the museum to the community was greatly ex-
panded during 1941. in programs and activities, especially of a nature
to stimulate participation, for example the motion picture as art, the
photo form, and so forth.
San Francisco Public Library
The following is a summary of the more important activities of the
Library Department for the year 1941.
Through the year there was an enrollment of 42,803 cardholders.
This amount brings the total registration to 141,062 as against 140,213
for last year.
The budget amounted to $440,908, which is an increase of $34,433
over the previous year, and the book fund amounted to $67,300, which
is also an increase of $9,300.
I approved of the automatic increases for the staff as submitted and
I also approved of one third of the amount originally requested for
increases for the other members of the staff.
164 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
The library system consists of tlie main library in the Civic
Center; twenty-one branch libraries, twelve of which are in perma-
nent l)uildings owned by the library, eight are in rented stores, and a
business branch in the Russ Building. Five deposit stations supply
reading material to the outlying districts. Unfortunately, no provision
could be made in the budget for extensions to the branch system in
spite of the fact that the North Beach and Marina districts have been
making strong appeals for adequate library facilities.
The complete inventory of the main library and twenty-one branches
was taken and all necessary and desirable missing material was re-
placed. The collection now numbers 532,074 volumes. This amount
does not include thousands of unbound pamphlets or the Max Kuhl
and Phelan memorial collections.
Like most public libraries throughout the country, a decrease in
the circulation of recreational reading was reported although the ref-
erence and research departments were busier than they have been in
some time. There has been an increased demand for technical books
traceable to the National Defense program. Books on chemistry, ship-
building and allied subjects are in constant use. The librarians have
been in conference with the Army and Navy librarians in order to
cooperate in supplying recreational reading as well as technical mate-
rial to the men in the service.
The circulation of books for home reading was 3,535,355 volumes.
This amount does not include the large number of books used in the
various reading and reference rooms of the library. It is estimated
that if this amount were included it would bring the total to over
9,000,000 volumes.
Extensive improvements and renovations have been completed on
the main library and branches. The buildings and rooms are in much
better condition than they have been for many years. New shelves for
sheet music and orchestral scores have been installed in the Music
Room. These improvements, together with the new piano in the sound-
proof room, add much to the comfort of the patrons as well as to the
efficiency of the staff.
There has been a steady and continuous use made of the new Bernal
and West Portal branch buildings. The grounds in front of the Bernal
Branch have been improved and the playground in the rear has been
completed.
Many rooms at the main library and branches are being used by the
local Red Cross for classes in first aid and all the library buildings are
held in readiness to be used in case of emergency.
In conjunction with the Junior Chamber of Commerce, I again de-
clared November 11th to 16th as Public Library Week. Appropriate
exhibits were held in the main library and branches. Librarians gave
talks before clubs and P.-T. organizations as well as over the radio
calling attention to the facilities of the library. Classes from all the
schools made regular trips through the main lilirary and branches and
were instructed in the use of the library. These visits were invaluable
in training the pupils as well as aiding the teacher and librarian.
A number of exhibitions and lectures were held in the main exhibit
room during the year. One of the most outstanding was the exhibition
of Fifty Books of the Year sponsored by the American Institute of
Graphic Arts. This exhibit was held simultaneously with similar ones
in Eastern cities. The Bounce and Coffin Club also sponsored an ex-
hibition of Western Books. Both exhibitions attracted a large number of
visitors. Many lectures were also held in the assembly hall. Among the
most popular were the ones given under the auspices of the Academy
of Sciences, the Poetry Society and the Audubon Society.
On January 1, 1942, the library staff will be under the Civil Service
Commission and all future appointments and examinations will be
through this commission. Recognition should be made to the Library
MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942 165
Commission tor the excellent manner in which it made appointments
and conducted examinations during the past many years.
A large number of gifts were received during the year. The late
Commissioner Albert M. Bender presented a number of rare items to the
Max Kuhl collection and Commissioner R. B. Hale, who has since re-
signed from the Commission, also presented a valuable and interesting
collection of books from his private library. Mr. Hale was a member
of the Commission since August, 1907.
Mr. Henry Dippel, Jr., was appointed to the Library Commission
to succeed Congressman Rolph and Mr. Nat Schmulowitz was appointed
to succeed Mr. Albert M. Bender.
Once again I wish to thank the library staff sincerely for its unfailing
courtesy and efficiency.
San Francisco Law Library
The Law Library, nationally known and recognized as one of the
most complete and well balanced collections of legal material in the
land, continues its development and expansion under the management
of Robert C. Owens, the librarian. ^
Originally a private corporation, the library became the property
of the City and County in 1868 when it consisted of 2,000 volumes. By
1906, 48,000 volumes had been accumulated. All were lost in the fire.
Completely reorganized and rebuilt during the ensuing years, the
library now has on its shelves 112,450 volumes, 2,200 of which were ac-
quired during the past year.
The collection includes text books, statutes, reported decisions, en-
cyclopedic works and legal periodicals of federal, state and foreign
jurisdictions.
It is of particular interest that the legal departments of the United
States Army and Navy and federal governmental and administrative
agencies are extensively availing themselves of the service and mate-
rial afforded by the law library, and that its facilities are proving of
inestimable value during the present national emergency.
Chief Administrative Officer
The Chief Administrative Officer is held by the charter responsible
to the Mayor and to the Board of Supervisors for the supervision of
nine departments of government, for administration of the publicity
and advertising fund and for coordinating the functions of the several
departments charged with powers and duties relating to control of
traffic.
The departments under the Chief Administrative Officer have been
brought under closer supervision during the past year with a view
to greater efficiency, interdepartmental cooperation and economy. This
has been accomplished through inspections, reports and conferences.
Policies concerning hours of work and courtesy and efficient service
to the public have been conveyed to department heads in writing.
Departments under the Chief Administrative Officer are Health,
Public Works, Purchasing, Real Estate, Electricity, Finance and Rec-
ords, Coroner, Weights and Measures, and Horticutural Commissioner.
The Department of Finance and Records includes the offices of County
Clerk, Registrar of Voters, Recorder, Tax Collector, and Public Ad-
ministrator. Operations of departments under the Chief Administrative
Officer are covered in separate reports.
Further progress has been made in directing publicity and adver-
tising expenditures to programs and activities that promote good will
for the city and encourage businesses, industries and visitors to come
to San Francisco.
Traffic problems that involve different departments of government
have been handled through the Street Traffic Advisory Board, which
166 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
meets regularly under the chairmanship of the Chief Administrative
Officer.
On the recommendation of the Mayor, the Board of Supervisors
placed the Chief Administrative Officer in charge of the city's WPA
program, effective July 1, 1941. In administering this program the
Chief Administrative Officer has directed his efforts toward weeding
out the less worthwhile projects and using this reservoir of relief
labor to accomplish the most possible for the city.
As defense industries have taken up more and more of the labor
slack there has been a trend since July 1 toward fewer eligibles for
WPA jobs and toward even greater reemployment in private industry or
by the Government. This trend promises soon to lead to a point
where a minimum residue of employable needy, consisting mainly of
persons not greatly desired in private employment, will remain for
use in the WPA program.
The change of the country from a defense to war status caused a
heavy strain of preparations for civilian defense to be placed on this
office and on several departments under the Chief Administrative Of-
ficer. The Health Department, Department of Public Works and De-
part of Electricity particularly have been called upon for emergency
defense work and preparations. These preparations for emergency were
well under way by the year-end so that a lessening of the strain of
getting ready to meet contingencies was in sight, though the necessity
of remaining constantly on the alert will remain during the whole of
the war emergency.
The demands of war industries for personnel have made it difficult
to obtain city employees in some classifications. This difficulty has
been felt particularly by the Department of Public Health and the De-
partment of Public Works. The situation has been met in so far as
possible by requests to the Mayor for declarations of emergency exempt-
ing certain classifications from the charter limit of ninety days for
temporary appointments. The Mayor and the Civil Service Commis-
sion have cooperated.
It is a sad duty to report the death of Alfred J. Cleary early in the
calendar year. Mr. Cleary was the first Chief Administrative Officer
under the present charter. He assumed office in January, 1932, when
the then new charter became effective. He died February 16, 1941. The
entire city mourned his passing and paid tribute in public services to
his memory.
Mr. Cleary was succeeded on February 20, 1941, by Thomas A. Brooks,
through appointment by the Mayor. Mr. Brooks for nine years had
served as the city's Purchaser of Supplies and as such had been head
of the Purchasing Department under the Chief Administrative Officer.
Mr. Brooks, on February 25, appointed Horace W. Kephart, who had
been his chief assistant, as Purchaser of Supplies.
The city government incurred another heavy loss when Mr. Kephart
died on September 29. He was succeeded by William C. Hubner, drafted
from the ranks of private business for the position. Mr. Hubner took
office on November 17.
Department of Public Health
The activities of the San Francisco Department of Public Health
associated with national defense were stimulated to wartime regime
by the Pearl Harbor episode of December 7, 1941, and subsequent
events.
In many ways the peace-time routine functions of the Health De-
partment such as care of accident cases, hospitalization of those un-
able to provide for themselves, protection control of food, milk, and
water supplies, suppression and control of disease, special nutrition
studies of the community's needs, supervision of hospitals, clinics,
boarding homes and nuiseries, the problem of garbage control, elimi-
nation of sub-standard' housing, public health laboratory control work.
MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942 167
inspection supervision of plumbing activities, the well baby center
conferences and the maternity division worlt — -now assume a magnified
importance during wartime.
It is neither appropriate nor of value at this time to list accomplish-
ments of the Health Department for the year 1941 in detail. Rather may
we present a few highlights which appear to be pertinent:
(1) Division of Statistics records for 1941 will show three particu-
larly enocuraging trends, namely, a very distinct rise in the birth rate,
a death rate slightly less than in 1940, and an estimated infant mortality
rate reaching an all-time low of approximately 27.3 per 1.000 live births.
Estimates based on eleven months of 1941 indicate that all major dis-
eases are at a very low level, with mortality from acute diseases at a
correspondingly low figure.
(2) Since rodents play such a prominent role in spreading disease
during and following war or general disaster, new and additional rat
surveys have been conducted continuously since July 1 of this year.
(3) Rigid inspection of milk production and distribution the entire
food production and storage system, as well as the water storage and
distribution services has been in continuous operation.
(4) Housing control work resulting in elimination of 65 sub-standard
structures and rehabilitation of many others has been carried out dur-
ing the year.
(5) Our phblic health laboratory has made from 12,000 to 15,000 ex-
aminations monthly, which are of invaluable assistance in the control
of disease, food and water supplies.
(6) The Emergency Hospital System made 36,000 ambulance calls
and treated 76,000 patients. It has also assisted in advanced Red Cross
training course instruction.
(7) Over 9,000 certified copies of birth certificates have been issued,
thus assisting men and women entering defense industries and the
armed forces.
(8) In our institutions, the San Francisco Hospital, Laguna Honda
Home and Hassler Health Home, the recent war activities have re-
sulted in the evacuation of certain roof wards and the transfer of cer-
tain other patients in order to make every preparation for handling
a maximum number of patients in case of necessity. A delivery room
has been prepared in the basement of our Maternity Building. Addi-
tional cases from the San Francisco Tuberculosis Hospital have been
transferred to Hassler Health Home located near Redwood City.
Employees are organized into teams for rendering every assistance
in the protection or removal of patients in case of a disaster. Special
precautions have been taken for the protection of buildings, stand-by
lighting service and auxiliary water supply.
(9) Enlargement of the San Francisco Hospital Blood Bank in prep-
aration for emergency purposes.
Defense activities for which specific preparation has been made since
December 7, 1941, include the following:
(1) Assignment of additional doctors to each of our regular Emer-
gency Hospitals to function in case of disaster.
(2) Selection of locations, equipping, and staffing of first aid and
dressing stations strategically located over the city to be used in case
of a disaster crisis.
(3) Mobilization of some sixty ambulances from private ambulance
companies andw mortician establishments to be made available during
an actual emergency.
(4) Close coordination with all private hospitals in the city, the
American Red Cross services, and the Civil Defense Council, with fre-
quent meetings and discussion of plans.
(5) Organization of personnel has been effected making available
168 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
those technically trained for first aid and hospital sei'vice to be used
as the occasion indicates.
Health Service System
The Health Service System provided medical care for 7,234 em-
ployees of the City and County and of the Board of Education dur-
ing the 12-month period ending September 30, 1941. This was the third
year of operation of the system.
The average monthly membership of employees was 10,498. Sixty-
nine per cent of the employee-members used the service during the year
• — a slight increase over the previous year.
In addition to the employee-members, the system provided coverage
for an average monthly membership of 286 retired members, 3,364
adult dependents and 2,134 minor dependents.
The incidence of illness and cost of providing medical care for
these latter groups exceeded that of employees.
The total disbursement for medical care for all types of subscriber
was $412,393. Of this sum, $269,325 went to the doctors of San Fran-
cisco. Hospitals, laboratories and other agencies of medical care re-
ceived $143,068. The total disbursement for medical service was over
$20,000 more than for the previous year. The increase was due to an
increase in receipts from contributing members and to a decrease in
the portion of the receipts that went for administrative or non-medical
expenses.
The doctors of the professional staff are paid according to a sched-
ule of fees under which each item of service is evaluated by units. The
maximum value of the service unit is $1.00.
The greatest problem facing the Health Service Board is to bring
the value of the service unit as near to the maximum as possible.
As a partial solution, the Board adopted changes in the service in
October of last year. The scope of medical coverage for dependents was
slightly reduced and the rate of contril)ution for both dependents and
retired members who were 62 years of age and over was increased.
The full effect of these changes has not yet been realized, but indica-
tions are that the rate of payment to the medical profession will be
appreciably higher as a result of the adjustments.
In accordance with provisions of the Charter, the Board is engaged
this month in conducting its annual survey of the experience of the
system. An effort will be made to work out adjustments which will
further increase the rate of payment to the medical profession without
affecting the benefits of the employee-members.
In addition to problems that have arisen from past experience, con-
sideration will be given to the probable effect of the war on operation
of the service.

Contracts were awarded for alterations and additions to 28 school
buildings amounting to $162,800.
Building Construction, Privately Owned — In private building indus-
try, the volume increased approximately 50 per cent over 1940. Issued
were 8,342 building permits for buildings estimated to cost $37,192,637.
The fees covering this work amounted to $136,583.
Street Maintenance Work Performed by City Forces — Approximately
$400,000 was expended during the year on the repair and maintenance
of over 750 miles of paved streets. Nearly $610,000 was expended during
the year for sweeping, washing and flushing of over 750 miles of paved
streets.
Sewers — Approximately $300,000 was expended during the year for
the repairs and maintenance of sewers in over 750 miles of accepted
streets. Plans and specifications have been prepared and bids will be
called in the early part of 1942 for new sewers in various districts esti-
mated to cost $340,000, as well as replacements of existing faulty sewers,
estimated to cost $80,000. This work has been delayed due to inability
to obtain adequate engineering help.
Purchasing Department
Total purchases for the year 1941 amounted to $5,995,582.47, as
against a total of $5,810,021.16 for the year 1940, an increase of $185,-
561.31. Although the increase in the money expended is only nominal in
comparison with the total figures involved, the number of purchase
orders issued increased from 52,285 in 1940 to 61,579 in 1941, an
increase of 17.775%.
The actual operating cost of the department was reduced both as to
the average cost per order and the ratio of the total cost to the total
value of purchase. The latter figures indicate that the Purchasing
Department regards efficiency and economy as prominent considerations
and objectives.
The total of 61,579 purchase orders issued and the separate expendi-
tures for the various departments are summarized below:
General and Miscellaneous, 28,615 orders, $2,728,545.76; Education,
17,156 orders, $942,802.75; Health, 5,649 orders, $908,861.18; Utilities
(other than Water Dept.), 5,086 orders, $723,026.45; Water Department,
3,298 orders, $537,891.60; W.P.A.. 1.775 orders. $154,454.73.
It will be noted that the Purchasing Department is continuing to do
all purchasing for all departments, commissions, boards and institutions
of the City, and a considerable amount for the Work Projects Ad-
ministration. In addition, this department operates and supervises
repair shops for automotive and mechanical equipment, garages, store-
rooms, warehouses, and a gasoline and oil service station for muni-
cipally-owned automotive equipment. During the past year a reduction
in the cost of operating all of these units Has been effected.
170 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
In its control of the City's equipment inventory, this department
has effected many transfers of property and equipment from one de-
partment to another, thus avoiding the necessity for additional pur-
chases.
The Tabulating Division of this department is now handling the
statistical operations of the Traffic Fines Bureau, of the Courts and of
the Police Department, and is at the same time rendering as part of
its regular routine, valuable assistance to many other departments.
The marked change in the operations of all kinds of business and in
the commodity markets throughout the country has had a notable effect
upon the operations of this department, because of the difficulties of
procurement. We are now forced to go far afield for many commodities
which until recently were readily available from many local sources.
This condition, heightened by recent developments in the national
emergency, will undoubtedly increase the work and the scope of the
operations of this department.
It will continue to be the policy of this department to operate with
the highest possible degree of efficiency and at the lowest cost com-
patible with good business procedure.
Department of Electricity
Ralph W. Wiley, Chief of the Department, indicates considerable
activity during 1941, in the Department of Electricity.
Civilian Defense. Eight 15 H.P. electric motor driven sirens, to be
used as air raid warnings, have been installed at the following loca-
tions: Lafayette Square; Roof of Bekins Van & Storage Co., Geary
& Masonic; Roof of George Washington School, 30th & Anza; Roof of
Lincoln School, 24th & Quintara; Twin Peaks; on hill near Lake
View and Orizaba; on hill in McLaren Park, near Alder and Ankenny;
Bernal Heights near Esmeralda and Shotwell. These sirens are
electrically controlled from the Central Fire Alarm Station so as to
give a simultaneous signal from all sirens. In addition to the above,
circuits have been installed to control the siren in the Ferry Building,
the siren on the Third Street Bridge and the siren on the Islais Creek
Bridge. Circuits connecting the Fire Alarm Station with ten sub-
stations of the Pacific Gas and Electric Company were installed to per-
mit simultaneous blackout of all street lights throughout the city.

ceiving antennas were installed at the following strategic points: on
top KGPD transmitter, Russian Hill, Twin Peaks, Golden Gate Heights
and Bernal Heights. Approximately 20 transmitters installed in cars of
San Francisco Police Department, also one in Police Boat. With money
availa))le in 1941-42 budget, plan to equip cars of the entire department
with two-way radio giving the department one of the finest, most up
to date two-way radio systems in the United States. Radio receiving
sets were maintained and i-epaired in 123 police cars, 73 motorcycles,
26 fire department cai's, 2 fire boats, 1 police boat and 19 police stations
and offices. Teletype system consisting of 17 teletypes and 2 spare

Totals 100 $744,359
Twenty parcels of City owned land were sold or traded for the total
sum of $106,458. Nineteen of these parcels will now be subject to
taxation by the City. The remaining parcel, containing 86 acres of
hilly land in San Mateo County lying between Sharp Park and the
City's jail property was sold to the Federal Government to be used
for a United States Coast Guard radio station. About twenty-five build-
ings were sold for the total amount of $15,118, including certain Hetch
Hetchy buildings and railroad track at Livermore, California.
An exchange of lands was concluded definitely fixing the common
boundary lines between the City's Lake Merced lands and the Meti'o-
politan Life Insurance project on Junipero Serra Boulevard.
About fifteen important leases were negotiated for the Water De-
partment. Recreation Department, Fire Department, Health Depart-
ment, Municipal Railway, District Attorney, Board of Education and
Juvenile Detention Department. Many other month to month leases
were also entered into. The land leased for the Juvenile Detention
Department, known as the Log Cabin Ranch, contains approximately
620 acres, and is located near La Honda in San Mateo County. Build-
ings are being constructed on this ranch property for housing, training
and rehabilitating certain delinquent boys.
In response to a request from the Board of Education, the Director of
Property has prepared a new lease to begin July 1, 1943, for renting the
Lincoln Building and lot located at the southeast corner of Fifth and
172 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
Market Streets, San Francisco, size 275 feet by 275 feet. The present
lease expires on June 30, 1943, wliereupon the improvements become
the property of the City. On August 1, 1941, the Superior Court of San
Francisco concluded that legal title to the property is held by the
San Francisco Unified School District in trust for the City and County
of San Francisco, a municipal corporation. The City now receives
$7,243 per month as ground rental for this property.
The Public Library and the Park Department has just received
about $225,000, as the result of official acceptance of a bequest left to
the City by the late Alfred Fuhrman. This bequest includes various
stocks and cash valued at $135,000 and also real property appraised
at $90,000. The real property includes lands in San Francisco, Mon-
terey, Kern and Fresno Counties. During the past few months con-
siderable income has been derived by the estate from oil wells located
on part of the land in Kern County. In accordance with the City's
Charter, this real property will be managed by the Real Estate De-
partment.
Considerable work was done by the Director of Property in arranging
for moving the offices of the Public Welfare Commission from the
corner of Fell and Gough Streets to the Board of Education Building
located at the southeast corner of Bush and Stockton Streets. The old
quarters were found to be inadequate and it was therefore necessary
to move to the new location. By resolutions of the Board of Education
and the Board of Supervisors, the new building was transferred to
the Public Welfare Commission for a period of five years, subject to
the condition that said Commission shall expend not less than $35,000
for improvements, alterations and repairs on the property. On
recommendation of the Mayor, the Board of Supervisors enacted a
supplemental appropriation ordinance providing the necessary funds
for this purpose.
$155,479 has been collected from miscellaneous rentals of City
owned lands and improvements, representing a $1,325 increase over last
year. About $57,238 has been earned from rentals at the Civic
Auditorium, representing a $5,238 increase over last year.
Sealer of Weights and Measures
Herewith is presented the annual report of the activities of the
Department of Weights and Measures for 1941.
Honest weights and measures are in use in greater numbers in San
Francisco today than ever before. In view of the fact that no unusual
schemes for cheating or defrauding the purchasing public were detected
during 1941, it would appear that vigilance on the part of the Inspectors
as well as the education of the public to watch the weighing and
measuring devices at all times for accurate delivery, has gone far to
reduce dishonesty and fraud.
This department covers a broad field of activity. It is required by law
to inspect and test all scales, weights, measures, pumps, etc. used in
commercial establishments in San Francisco. Its duties involve not
only the observance of these instruments in use, but also to weigh all
foodstuffs in package form to see that they are properly marked as to
contents and that the weight marked thereon is correct.
During the past year, this department received several requests
from high army officers of the United States Government to inspect
all scales, pumps, etc. at the Presidio, Fort Mason and government
boats at pier 56, which were complied with.
Sealer James A. Hughes reports that the Department of Weights
and Measures received the fullest cooperation during the past year
from the various Municipal Judges, the Better Business Bureau and
the newspapers of this city.
During 1941, the Department Visited 10492 establishments, received
and adjusted 62 complaints and issued 10279 certificates. Arrests made
and convictions secured, 5; fines received, $125.
MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942 173
Scales: 19479 sealed; 1484 adjusted; 415 condemned; 71 confiscated:
total 21449. Weights sealed 23540; adjusted, 36; confiscated, 85; total.
23661. Gasoline pumps sealed, 4719; adjusted, 72; condemned, 117;
confiscated, 5; total, 4913. Liquid measures sealed, 12846; adjusted, 7;
condemned, 17; confiscated, 5; total 12875. Commercial packages
re-weighed, 181,335; condemned, 3915; total, 185,250.
Coroner
The Coroner's Office in the period from January 1 to November 1,
1941 has again functioned in such a manner as to deserve the national
recognition it has received for the completeness and the scientific
accuracy that mark its investigations. The completeness with which
the causative facts pertinent to the accidental deaths investigated are
demonstrated, together with the recommendaions which follow are of
unestimable value and should result in a reduction of similar fatal
accidents. The office has cooperated with the National Safety Council
in its study of the relationship of alcohol to traffic accidents. Imme-
diately following the onset of the war, the Coroner's Office was placed
on an emergency basis, and at present is prepared to function in and
cope with any catastrophe that might occur. A study of the statistics
for the period covered by this report shows the office handled a total
of 2090 cases, a decrease of 81 cases from the corresponding period last
year. The number of Inquests held was 2090, Jurors summoned and
serving 817, autopsies performed 1919, Pathological examinations made
2241, Toxicological examinations completed 1265. In spite of a re-
ported increase in Motor Vehicle Traffic Deaths throughout the nation,
the deaths from this cause in San Francisco were slightly less, 77, as
against 78 in the same period of 1940, and the traffic deaths in children
under 15 were markedly lower, being 6 as against the 1940 total of 11.
Since the organization of the Junior Traffic Patrol in 1923, no death in
this group has occurred in zones patrolled by school-boy traffic officers,
an incomparable record.
Although deaths resulting from falls and other miscellaneous acci-
dents increased from 183 to 220, it is remarkable that in spite of the
industrial speed-up resulting from the Defense Program, the occupa-
tional fatalities decreased from 30 to 23. In comparison with 1940.
Homicides decreased, 22 as against 27, Suicides increased, 157 as com-
pared with 154. The revenue received by the office for certification of
papers and transcripts of testimony increased from $822 to $1600.
Murders, during this period numbered 11, as against 19 in 1940;
natural causes brought 1317 deaths, as compared with 1158 in 1940;
natural causes, signed from history 146 — 375 in 1940; natural causes,
contributory, excessive use of alcohol 25, to 61 in 1940; chronic
alcoholism 13, a decrease of 22; homicides, not classified 11, an increase
of 3; from street railway accidents, 2, by steam railroads, 2; accidental
poisoning, 10, as compared with 9 in the similar period of 1940.
As to the motor vehicle fatalities, 56 were pedestrians, 40 occurred at
intersections, and 47 occurred between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m.
Juvenile Probation Department
Chief Probation Officer, R. R. Miller reports as follows for the
Juvenile Probation Department:
During the fiscal year 1940-41, a total of 1224 new cases passed
through the Juvenile Court, exclusive of repeaters. Of this number
there were 544 girls and 680 boys.
There was expended from the Maintenance of Minors Fund, including
all children placed through the Juvenile Court with foster homes,
institutions and own families, the total amount of $752,392.00. Break-
ing this down, there was expended in: Institutions, $56,916.00; Foster
Homes, $411,508.00; with own families $283,968.00. Of this amount
the State and Federal governments reimbursed under the State Aid
Act for Needy Children (Social Security Act) the sum of $370,138.00.
In addition to this amount the sum of $68,000 was collected by the
174 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
Juvenile Court from parents under payment orders and reimbursed to
tlie City and County of San Francisco for moneys spent in behalf
of their children, making a total reimbursement to the County of
$438,138.00, and therel)y making a total actually expended from the
City and County of San Francisco fund for maintenance of minor
children through the Juvenile Court of $314,254.00.
Particularly outstanding for the year was the enthusiasm expressed
by the Mayor, the Courts, the Board of Supervisors, and other bodies
in an endeavor to assist the Juvenile Court in creating a higher
standard of efficiency and work. As a result, a request was made to
the National Probation Association for one of their field workers to
make a survey of the Juvenile Court so that the work might be placed
on a higher plane and respected in comparison with other outstanding
Juvenile Courts of the country. Mr. Francis Hiller of the National
Probation Association was sent to San Francisco, arriving on March 10,
1941, and commenced his survey.
The Honorable Frank H. Dunne, who presided over the Juvenile
Court for eleven years, was taken by death.
During June 1941 the Honorable Thomas M. Foley, Judge of the
Superior Court, was appointed a full time Judge of the San Francisco
Juvenile Court. With his appointment the Juvenile Court is in a posi-
tion to present a complete service to San Francisco, emphasizing the
true picture of a Children's Court. Judge Foley has emphasized a
desire to widen the scope of responsibility and to centralize a court
procedure for the protection of all children within the city.
On March 1, 1941 the entire responsibility of the Log Cabin Ranch
School was taken over by the City and County of San Francisco. Its
immediate control remains with the Probation Department, and its staff
now comes within Civil Service. The location of the Ranch is at
Gualala, California, about 160 miles northwest of San Francisco. Plans
are now being formulated to move the Log Cabin Ranch School to
La Honda, where closer proximity to San Francisco will reduce travel
expenditures and will allow for a more centralized program. The
rehabilitation of boys accomplished at Log Cabin Ranch is particularly
outstanding. Inculcated into the school as an excellent training in
ranch life which includes the raising of live-stock, truck gardening
and fruit raising. The boys attend school regularly. There is now
theoretical instruction in the classroom with a good, practical voca-
tional training program.
During the fiscal year there was passed by the Board of Supervisors
the sum of $37,500 for the construction of a new court building to
adjoin the rear of the present Detention Home. From this sum there
are also to be supplied funds for needed alterations in the existing
building, which will allow for ample office space to meet the expanding
duties. The new court building will house the Judge's chambers, a court
room of practical size, the District Attorney's office, office for the Clerk
of the Court, jury room, and waiting rooms. There will be a passage
through the present building for children and staff members, while
adults involved in child cases will not be required to go through the
Juvenile Court Imilding, but rather through another provided entrance.
Advancement has been particularly outstanding during the year
in psychological and psychiatric case work with delinquent children.
This field has assisted the probation staff in its recommendations to
the court for disposition of cases.
The Juvenile Court, with its wide scope of activity and responsibility,
has been serving the pul)lic with every degree of satistaction. The
staff, which numl)ers close to 68 people, including Detention Home.
Log Cabin Ranch and Prol)ation Department, has exemplified efficiency
and excellent morale in carrying out the prescribed duties.
Agricultural Commissioner
County Agricultural Commissioner. W. F. Carroll's report observes
MONDAY, JANUARY 26. 1942 175
that the inspection of all inter- and intrastate shipments of plants,
bulbs and seed is the responsibility of this department. During the
year 1941. incoming nursery stock shipments numbered 1682 — 1.348,323
plants, with only 21 shipments rejected amounting to 25217 plants.
Nurseries inspected: 55, private homes inspected: 34, retail nurseries
inspected: 126. Shipments of nursery stock to other points in the
United States and foreign countries: 144 shipments, 451 plants.
Retail Store Inspections: 2409 stores inspected for the condition of
fruits, nuts, vegetables, honey and eggs. Fruits, nuts and vegetables
reconditioned: 656 packages, remarked: 114 packages, dumped: 376
packages. Eggs reconditioned: 370 dozen, remarked: 4297 dozen,
dumped: 300 dozen. Honey reconditioned: none, remarked: 64 jars,
dumped: none.
Wholesale Fruit and Vegetable Market: Number of inspections: 1897.
Fruits and vegetables reconditioned: 22,529, packages, remarked:
9117 packages, dumped: 18,994 packages.
There were 7900 shipments of fruits, nuts, vegetables, cereals, garden
seed, plants and other miscellaneous commodities to points in United
States and foreign countries, amounting to a total of 520,353 packages.
There were 1439 inspections of potatoes, onions, beans, rice, eggs,
butter, cheese, cereals, dried fruits, alfalfa hay, red oat hay, crushed
oats, rolled barley, bran, rice straw, corn, wheat, and birdseed for City
Institutions with only the following four rejections: 1440 dozen eggs,
600 pounds butter, 150 pounds of cheese and 8000 pounds of potatoes.
The revenues taken for export work and City Institutions together
for the present year amount to approximately eight thousand dollars
($8,000.00).
Department of Finance and Records
This department is charged with the administration of the functions
and personnel of the following offices: Tax Collector, Registrar of
Voters. County Clerk, Recorder, and Public Administrator.
The expenses of the Administrative office for the calendar year 1941
were $8,034.99.
During the year, the Tax Collector produced an increase of $2,537,-
302.01 over the collections for the preceding year.
The Public Administrator filed 289 Final Accounts during the year
showing a total of $59,991.65 in fees paid into the Treasury.
Registrar of Voters Major C. J. Collins was retired for service during
the year and Cameron H. King, former Chief Clerk of Registration,
winner of the competitive examination for the position, was named to
succeed to the position of Registrar.
The Recorder's office shows a steady increase in the number of
instruments filed and a resultant increase in the amount of fees
collected.
The County Clerk has completed the organization of the Naturaliza-
tion Department, and is now handling the clerical work attendant
upon the examination of applicants and their witnesses prior to
appearance before the Superior Court for final papers.
Detailed reports upon all the offices mentioned above are submitted
herewith.
Tax Collector
The report of Edward F. Bryant, for the fiscal year closing June
30, 1941, shows collections as follows:
Real estate taxes and secured personal taxes, $31,942,967.00; un-
secured personal property taxes exclusive of delinquent revenue
bureau, $920,900.30; total receipts, $32,863,867.30, an increase of $2,442,-
758.04. because of tax rate increase over preceding year. Bureau of
Delinquent Revenue Collections, various delinquent accounts from City
and County departments (less by $18,548.73 than preceding year)
$164,650.07.
176 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
Bureau of Licenses (increase of $113,092.70 because of new business
licenses) $431,664.77; total collections, $33,460,182.14, an increase over
preceding fiscal year of $2,537,302.01.
Cojanty Clerk
The year 1941 saw the completion of the organization of the
Naturalization Department of the County Clerk's Office, set up to
function in cooperation with the United States Department of Natural-
ization. Weekly hearings are held with a United States Examiner in
attendance, for the purpose of examining applicants and their witnesses
and final examinations are held before the Superior Court, twice each
month. This work involves the advising of hundreds of aliens monthlj"^
and imposes extra duties upon the County Clerk's Office, but the im-
portance of the work justifies such extra efforts as are required. The
total fees collected for the first full year's operation from Naturalization
work, amounts to the sum of $2,832.50.
Total fees collected, together with fines and forfeitures for the year
1941, amounted to the sum of $125,803.40.
Recorder
The improvements made in the Recorder's office in 1940 in conformity
with State laws which resulted in better service to the public and
more economical and efficient operation of the office, have produced
splendid results for the year 1941. With some 2,000 more instruments
recorded and an increase of more than $4,500 in fees collected, the
amount spent for salaries remains almost identical with that for
1940, while the amount spent for record books, due to a new space-
saving method of copying, has been reduced almost 15 per cent.
Recordation of marriage licenses has increased about 5% over
last year's figures which, by the way, were the smallest in almost 30
years. This increase was probably due to the desire of many selectees
to wed before entering the seiwice.
A constantly improved service consistent with sound economy is
the aim of the Recorder and one of the major steps in this direction
will be the installation of photo-recording. Efforts have been made,
and are still being made, to amend the provisions of our State laws
which at present prevent the use of this method. The Recorder believes
that permission of the legislature for the use of this scientific means
of reproducing records can be obtained, but it may take a little time.
Fees for the calendar year total $132,800, while the total paid out
in salaries was $87,965.
Registrar of Voters
Cameron H. King, Registrar of Voters reports that, during the 1941
calendar year his office maintained the same pace of efficiency and
economy that has characterized its past performance.
After the cancellation of 59,510 registered electors for neglecting to
vote either at the primary or general election in 1940, the office
registered 15,623 new persons, to restore the register to 341,294. The
municipal election on November 4, 1941, brought out 213,908 voters.
The returns of this election were handled with exceptional celerity.
There were 1111 voting precincts and all reported the results in good
time. Complete tal)ulation of votes for the whole city was given to the
press by 11 p.m. election night.
The voting machines gave complete satisfaction. The city now
owns 1335. With the continued expansion of the voting population,
however, fifty more machines are needed.
Voting machines are stored in two warehouses. These buildings are
not large enough nor are they properly suited for the care and handling
of the machines. They are not fireproof, or dampproof. The entrances
and floor layouts are very badly arranged. A single fireproof building
"^^h(iuld be provided, designed for the purpose of handling these
riiachines. J "i ..
MONDAY, JANUARY 26. 1942 177
Reapportionment of the legislative districts requires re-sorting of
the 341.294 affidavits of registration into the new precincts and districts.
New precinct maps are being prepared and the number of precincts
has been increased from 1111 to 1184.
In addition to the registration of voters and the conduct of elections,
the office handles a great deal of work in notarizing civil service applica-
tions and issuing certificates of registration for persons employed in
defense work.
With the retirement of Major C. J. Collins as Registi-ar of Voters
on January 31, 1941, there were several promotions of personnel
through civil service examinations. Cameron H. King, formerly Chief
Clerk of Registration, became Registrar, Geo. A. Donohoe, Law Clerk,
became Chief Clerk of Registration and John J. Hannon succeeded Mr.
Donohoe as Law Clerk. The main office remained under the efficient
direction of Mr. Ignatius D. Dwyer, Chief Clerk of Elections. The
permanent office force of the Registrar of Voters operated in 1941
on a budget of $7816, less than in 1931.
Pressure of the traffic office for space and the placing of huge relief
• map in the main registration room has seriously handicapped the
Registrar's office in its own work. Removal of the relief map is a
necessity for continued economy and efficiency in dealing with the
voters and receiving election returns.
Public Administrator
Phil C. Katz, Public Administrator, submits his report of the opera-
tions of the Public Administrator's Office for the period from January
1 to December 15, 1941.
Number of estates wherein Public Administrator took possession.
278 ; number of estates in which final accounts have been settled and
allowed, 289; Administrator's commissions collected and paid into
County Treasury, $28,572.17; Attorney's fees collected and paid into
County Treasury, $28,572.16; sundry revenue collected and paid into
County Treasury, $2,847.32; total collections paid into County Treasury,
$59,991.65; total cost of operation of office, $44,436.14; profit, $15,555.51.
During this year the office handled more estates and more final
accounts were settled and allowed than during the previous year. The
profit from operating the office is likewise greater than that shown
last year.
This office has been particularly affected by the war. Regulations
and restrictions in ever increasing numbers, covering the property of
alien deceased persons and distributive shares of alien heirs have
greatly augmented the work of the personnel and placed additional
responsibilities on all concerned.
Public Welfare Commission
Starting July 1, 1941, the duties and responsibilities of the Public
Welfare Commission, and of the Public Welfare Department of which
it is the polcy-forming and supervisory body, were increased through
the discontinuance of operations of the State Relief Administration.
Prior to that time, the Public Welfare Department administered the
three classifications of public assistance. Aid to Needy Aged, Aid
to Needy Blind and Aid to Needy Children, in which the Federal Gov-
ernment and the State of California participated financially with the
City and County of San Francisco. It also administered indigent aid
to unemployed unemployable persons. Relief to unemployed employable
persons was administered by the State Relief Administration through its
offices in San Francisco. Subsequent to July 1, 1941. the administration
of relief to unemployed employable persons also became the respon-
sibility of the Public Welfare Department.
The budget of the Public Welfare Department for the fiscal year
1941-42 already had been adopted prior to the failure of the California
Legislature to provide funds for the continued operation of the State
Relief Administration. With the discontinuance of operations of the
178 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
State Relief Administration, therefore, it was necessary that addi-
tional funds be provided to cover the cost of indigent aid to employables
for the fiscal year. This was done through the inclusion of an additional
amount of ten cents (10c) in the tax rate, which made available a
total amount of $747,749 for this purpose for the fiscal year 1941-42.
During the calendar year just ended, the Public Welfare Department
authorized the disbursement of $7,465,000 to the Needy Aged, the
Needy Blind, the Needy Children and the Indigents. The cost of
administration was $542,700. or 6.8^0 of the grand total of $8,008,200.
Of this grand total, the total cost from City and County tax funds for
tne year was $3,483,500. The balance of the cost was met from Federal
and State funds.
The following tabulated statement shows how the money disbursed
was divided among the types of recipients, the parts that were provided

180 MONDAY, JANUARY 26. 1942
Aid to Needy Aged: Over 65% of all disbursements of the Public
Welfare Department for the year just ended were for the benefit of our
Needy Aged. The greatest increase in the disbursements of the Depart-
ment has occurred in connection witii these needy aged persons. In
November. 1941, 11.960 eligible aged San Franciscans received assistance
checks, an increase of 621 over November of 1940. The total cost of
Old Age Assistance during the calendar year just ended was $304,700
greater than that for the previous year.
Aid to Needy Children: The Public Welfare Department administers
aid to only one class of dependent children — the half-orphans whose
fathers or mothers are dead or have been declared presumptively dead
by court action. The other classes of needy children are granted aid
through the Dependency Division of the Juvenile Court. For the
month of November. 1941, aid was extended to 520 cases, representing
1,221 children. The similar figures for November, 1940, were 614 cases
and 1.478 children. The total amount disbursed for Aid to Needy
Children during the calendar year just ended, including suplementary
Aid to Needy Children, was $32,700 less than that disbursed during
the preceding year.
Aid to Needy Blind: The number of blind persons receiving assistance
thorough the Public Welfare Department in November, 1941, was 523 as
compared with 551 blind persons receiving assistance in November, 1940.
Aid to Indigents: The responsibility of caring for indigent persons
now includes both employables and unemployables who have a County
residence of one year and a State residence of three years, the State
residence being independent of public or private assistance prior to
application for relief. Under the Act granting aid to the indigent,
relief may be extended for only a temporary period to non-residents,
that is, persons who do not have three years' independent residence
in the State prior to application for relief. Non-residents may receive
emergency aid according to an ordinance of the Board of Supervisors
for sixty days with the provision that ninety days may be allowed in
cases of illness. The cost of Indigent Aid for the year just ended was
$1,533,700 as compared with $1,349,700 for the previous calendar year,
or an increase of $184,000. This increase resulted from the employable
cases which came onto the rolls of the Public Welfare Department on
July 1, 1941 when the State Relief Administration discontinued opera-
tions.
In August 1941, the Public Welfare Commission created an Employ-
ment Division within the Public Welfare Department. The purpose
of this division was to attempt to find placement in private employ-
ment for the employable unemployed through cooperation with the
California Department of Employment. The activities of this division,
together with the recent increases in general employment, have been
so beneficial that, although more than 3,000 new cases became the
responsil)ility of the Public Welfare Department in July, as of December
15. 1941. there were less than 400 more cases receiving Indigent Aid
than were receiving such aid one year ago.
Prior to July 1. 1941. the State Relief Administration was the agency
in San Francisco which certified persons for employment with the
Federal Works Projects Administration. In November, it became the
responsil)ility of the Public Welfare Department to refer to the WPA
for certification of all persons eligible for such referral. The Work
Projects Administration currently provides jobs for some 5,000 persons
in San Francisco as compared with an employment one year ago of
approximately 9.000 persons.
As of January 1, 1941, I appointed Mr. Frank Y. McLaughlin as a
member of the Public Welfare Commission replacing Mr. Guido J.
Musto. whom I ai)pointed as a War Memorial Trustee as of that date.
During the calendar year 1941. therefore, the Public Welfare Commis-
sion consisted of Mr. F. M. McAuliffe. Chairman. Mr. Frank Y. Mc-
Laughlin. Mrs. Eugene M. Prince, Miss Ruth A. Turner and Mr.
Edward Vandeleur. I am grateful to the members of the Public
MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942 181
Welfare Commission for their devvotion to those in San Francisco who
are unable to provide for themselves. I am grateful to them for their
efforts to conserve public monies by granting aid only to those who
are truly needy according to the law and eligible to assistance through
the Public Welfare Department. It is the policy of the Public Welfare
Commission that every person in San Francisco who is eligible for
public assistance be given the maximum amount for which he or she
is eligible within the shortest possible time and that every ineligible
person who secures, or attempts to secure, the assistance that is pro-
vided for needy eligibles be penalized as provided by law.
San Francisco-San Mateo Livestock Exposition Buildings
More than a decade of effort on the part of the citizens of San
Francisco and San Mateo Counties, as represented by the .No. 1-A
District Agricultural Association, bore fruit during November, 1941 in
the first annual Grand National Livestock Exposition.
A goodly portion of the credit for the truly amazing success of this
great livestock exposition, horse show and rodeo should be attributed
to the $50,000 appropriated for promotion and publicity purposes by the
City and County of San Francisco.
Exceeding even the fondest expectations of the agricultural associa-
tion's board of directors, the Exposition drew an estimated grand total
of 142,197 spectators through the gates of the "Cow Palace" during
eleven performances from November 15 to 22.
Total net paid attendance was 117,468. Gross receipts were $95,308.69.
After deduction of ten per cent Federal amusement tax, net gate
receipts amounted to $85,751.92. When it is remembered that more
than half of the seats in the "Cow Palace" were sold at a popular
price of 55 cents, this is a most satisfactory outcome.
More important than the gate receipts was the intense interest
and complete support accorded the Exposition by exhibitors of livestock
and show horses.
In the Livestock Division, 145 exhibitors from 18 states showed 2.085
head of the nation's finest beef and dairy cattle, sheep and swine to
participate in what qualified experts declared to be one of the nation's
top ranking domestic animal expositions. In the horse show, 145 of the
country's noted stables entered 253 blooded horses to produce a
spectacle which, in its premiere, took rank alongside the Madison
Square Garden classic in New York.
Thus, the Grand National established San Francisco as the peer of
the time honored livestock show and service centers of the United
States. More than that, it made tremendous strides in advancing and
cementing the bonds of friendship between San Francisco and her
agricultural neighbors.
Municipal Court
Presiding Judge Alden Ames, in his report for 1941, to the beginning
of December, for the Municipal Court of the City and County of San
Francisco, shows an excess in revenue over expenditures, of $375,710.13.
There is a tremendous increase in traffic fines. This indicates, ob-
viously enough, enforcement of the traffic laws on a large scale. As
many of the fines collected are $1.00 each, the parking laws are being
enforced as well as other violations in great numbers, as is shown
by the number of tags issued. An increase in expenditures of $50,000,
mainly for rental of machines and increased help in the Trafl!ic Fines
Bureau, necessitated by the greater number of tags issued, resulted
in an increase, in revenue, over the same period in 1940, of more than
$150,000, establishing the highest record in the history of the Court.
Criminal actions numbered, 313,893; small claims brought, 4,941, of
which 1,073 were official; civil suits, 10,736, of which 252 were official.
Civil fees received, $68,109. Fines, in cases other than traffic, $36,-
182 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
683.68. Traffic fines, all sources, $547,068.86. Total revenue, $651,861.54;
expenditures. $276,151.41.
Traffic tags settled in Fines Bureau, 381,584; revenue, $396,812.50;
tags to Court. 25,964; revenue, $150,256.36. The increase in the number
of tags issued under each heading was over 100%.
Public Defender
Gerald J. Kenny, Public Defender, reports that, during the year 1941,
his Department handled 1433 cases in the Superior, Municipal, Juvenile
Courts and Detention Hospital. He and his assistants interviewed and
gave advice to 3362 persons without funds to employ private counsel in
civil matters. They made 3219 appearances in courts during the year.
The Public Defender advises persons who are obviously guilty, to
plead guilty, thereby eliminating costly and long drawn out trials and
saving the City and County thousands of dollars annually in court
costs and jury fees. The Public Defender and his assistants, in coopera-
tion with the District Attorney and Judges, endeavor to make proper
disposition of these cases, both for the benefit of the People of the State
of California and in the interest of the defendants and the protection
of their legal rights.
District Attorney
During 1941, this office participated in and conducted approximately
47.000 court hearings; issued 23.400 citations; conducted 21,000 cita-
tion hearings; was represented at all sessions of the Grand Jury
during the year, both regular and special, and collected and turned
into the City Treasurer's Office in bail money the total sum of
$789,012.50.
Also, this office participated in all Coroner's inquests wherein sus-
picion of crime in connection with deaths was present, attended all
meetings of the Parole Board, all meetings of the Traffic Committee on
safety matters, met with groups of merchants and organizations in-
terested in the various phases of the Unfair Practices Act and prepared
and gave instructions and lectures on the same to such groups for
the purpose of averting law violations and court prosecutions.
The total cost of conducting the office for the year was $118,140.
I am informed that this is lower than that of any other District
Attorney's office of comparable size in the United States.
Of the cases handled by the Office of the District Attorney in 1941.
of the 47,000 court hearings, approximately 2,100 were felony cases that
reached the Superior Court, and approximately 44,500 were mis-
demeanor cases disposed of in the Municipal Court; approximately 400
were crimes involving children, disposed of in the Juvenile Court.
Of the total number of approximately 23,400 citations issued, 9,000
were issued by the Bureau of Domestic Relations of this Office, dealing
with failure to provide for minor children, indigent wives and aged
parents and similar domestic cases; 2,000 were issued by the Fraud
Bureau of this Office, dealing with crimes of frauds, swindles and
violations of the Corporate Securities Act, misleading advertising and
various other rackets; 12,000 were issued by the Warrant and Bond
Office dealing with miscellaneous offenses, felony and misdemeanor
alike, and with violations of City Ordinances; 400 were issued by the
deputy in charge of the Juvenile Court work, relating particularly to
sex offenses and juvenile delinquencies. Hearings on citations were
approximately as follows: Bureau of Domestic Relations, 8,000; Fraud
Bureau, 1,700; Warrant and Bond Office, 11,000; Juvenile Department.
300.
The Warrant and Bond Department, aside fi'opi the issuance of
citations as above noted, prepared 75,000 complaints, and 25,000 warrants
were issued upon these complaints, and by telephone and personally
answered over 15,000 requests for advice and information. ,
The Food and Health Bureau of this Office, which^ i^nyestigates and
MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942 183
prosecutes offenders under the pure food and drug act, the State
agricultural code and various City health ordinances, handled and
disposed of more than 200 cases during the year.
Out of 207 narcotic cases disposed of during the year, 189 were
convictions. These figures pertain to proceedings in the Superior
Court.
City Attorney
During the past year the City Attorney's Office, representing the
City and County of San Francisco, was involved in many important
actions involving several million dollars.
Among the cases tried were the Hetch Hetchy case — The Dan
Williams v. The City and County, which concerned the water rights
on the Tuolumne River — The DeGuigne suit involving a $200,000
condemnation suit in San Mateo County — The Transbay Construction
case, involving approximately $850,000, dealing with the enlargement
of the O'Shaughnessy Dam, as well as numerous other cases concern-
ing taxes and personal injuries.
During the year this oflUce received some 305 civil suits, of these 125
actions actually went to trial.
Cases involving the McEnerny Act amounted to 34.
There were 25 actions in the Appellate Divisions of the various
courts.
During this year 124 major opinions were rendered to the various
officers, boards, commissions and departments of the City and County
Government.
Nuisances. By reason of the previous activity of the City Attorney's
Office in abating existing nuisances, and in establishing a well settled
rule of law with reference to the same, the number of actions necessary
to abate existing nuisances was reduced. Where any public nuisances
existed the owners of said property were requested to appear before
the Department of Public Health. At all such hearings a representative
of the City Attorney's Office is present and informs the property owners
of the legal restrictions on maintaining property in an unsafe and
unsanitary condition, and in most instances the property owner, upon
being advised of his obligations, abates the public nuisance without
the necessity of going to trial.
Eviinent Domain. Upon recommendation and direction of the Board
of Supervisors, 31 parcels of land have been condemned within the
City and County limits. Many additional parcels of land have also
been condemned by this office for the local Housing Authority, furthei--
ing the slum clearance program throughout the Nation.
Board of Education. Approximately 57 cases — not including the
re-rate cases for teachers, and salary suits by teachers — are pending
to be tried by the attorney for the Board of Education, with the assist-
ance of the City Attorney's Office. Approximately 25 cases have been
tried and closed by the joint action of the aforementioned attorneys. In
addition some 35 cases involving personal injuries to persons alleged
to have been injured due to the dangerous and defective condition of
school property, were settled after due investigation.
Housing Axithority. Although the building program of the Housing
Authority has been somewhat limited, by the present national
emergency, the representative from the City Attorney's Office has been
active on behalf of the Housing Authority in procuring land by con-
demnation proceedings for the furtherance of the slum clearance
program.
Dismissals. This year many additional suits have been dismissed
upon motion of the City Attorney for failure to prosecute actions
brought against the City and County, within the statutory time limit
provided by law.
Claims. A large increase was noticed in the number of claims filed
against the City and County of San Francisco. The records of the
184 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
Controller's Office indicate that some 1100 claims have been filed with
that office and have been brought to the attention of the City Attorney's
Office for investigation and disposition. Numerous claims have been
settled for minor amounts, dispensing with the necessity of court action
in these matters. However, these claims have only been settled after
a thorough investigation of the facts and circumstances surrounding
the occurrence for which the claim was brought.
Municipal Railway. As in the past, although actions have been
brought for personal injuries and property damage against the Muni-
cipal Railway, the City Attorney's Office was successful in keeping the
actual payments made on such claims at an amount approximating 8%
of the total claims for damages. The claims for damages amounted to
some $850,000.00 and the amount actually paid out by the Municipal
Railway was about $83,000.00 for the past year.
Fire Department. On behalf of the City and County of San Fran-
cisco, the City Attorney's Office settled some 50 claims against persons
who had damaged hydrants and other fire department property.
Departments Rejiresented by City Attorney's Office. As in the past,
the City Attorney's Office had a representative at all meetings of the
Retirement Board, the Public Utilities Commission, the Board of Permit
Appeals, the City Planning Commission, the Board of Supervisors and
the Civil Service Commission, the Board of Public Health and the local
Housing Authority.
Indvstrial Accident Commission. During the past year approximately
24 cases were tried by the City Attorney's Office on behalf of the City
and County, before the Industrial Accident Commission, and very
favorable results were obtained.
Department of Public Works. Although numerous actions were
brought against the City and County of San Francisco under the
Public Liability Act for dangerous and defective conditions of public
streets, works and property, only one judgment was obtained against
the City and County of San Francisco, and at the present time this
matter is pending before the District Court of Appeals. Some minor
claims for damages were filed, but after due investigation by this
office were settled, without trial.
Ordinances. Among the more important ordinances drawn by the
City Attorney's Office for the Board of Supervisors, during the past
year, were:
The non-fix traffic tag ordinance; the flower stand ordinance; the
ordinance regulating motion picture theatres; the ordinance controlling
passenger buses; the ordinance regulating the handling of poultry;
the new air-raid ordinance.
Rate Department. The principal activities in the rate department
during the 1941 calendar year were as follows:
Detailed study and report on proposed charges which the Pacific
Gas and Electric Company planned to incorporate in the agreement
for leasing the distribution system in San Francisco.
Cooperating with the representatives of the Public Utilities Com-
mission in preparing and reviewing data incorporated in plan "9"
which was the charter amendment for a bond issue of $66,500,000 sub-
mitted to the electors on November 4, 1941.
Complete studies on electric and gas rates were made by this office
and the matter is still pending before the California Railroad Com-
mission with regard to reduction of rates.
Studies on the operation of the Market Street Railway Company
under the 7c fare and the effect of bus substitution for trolley cars
on the net income of the company.
Analysis of State Board of Equalization's detailed assessment of
public utilities in the City and County of San Francisco.
Appoai'ances before the California Railroad Commission upon all
matters concerning the welfare of the City and County of San Francisco.
MONDAY, JANUARY 26. 1942 185
Preparation of a detailed study showing the effect of any proposed
change in the fares of tlie Municipal Railway.
Housing Authority
The Commission has held regular meetings on the Thursday of
each week during the year and has transacted all necessary business
for the Authority. The Authority now has three projects in operation,
namely. Holly Courts, Potrero Terrace and Sunnydale, a total of
1,359 dwelling units, while a fourth project, Valencia Gardens (246
units) is under construction and a fifth, Westside Court (136 units), is
out for bids. Thus about two-thirds of our proposed program is actually
built or building. Plans for the Bernal Dwellings project are complete
and are ready for bids, awaiting only the Commission's authorization
to proceed. Drawings for five other projects are in various stages and
practically all of the land for the entire program of eleven projects has
been purchased or is under final negotiation. Construction progress
has been and is still being greatly retarded by the necessity of obtain-
ing priorities. The Coordinator of Defense Housing has granted
priorities on the Valencia Gardens and Westside Court projects. The
conditions now established for priorities involve preference to defense
workers whose incomes are less than |2100 per annum. Our Commis-
sion has not yet accepted these conditions on six projects, but has
indicated a willingness to do so for Chinatown. The influx of defense
workers as well as Army and Navy personnel may soon develop a real
need for the rapid construction of the full program.
Increased incomes of defense and wartime economic conditions have
greatly changed our tenant selection and occupancy situation. Large
tenant turnover and a markedly high percentage of rejections on
account of excessive income have characterized the last six months of
this year. In spite of these conditions and though Sunnydale and
Potrero Terrace were only recently completed, far from the center
of the City, about two-thirds of their dwelling units are now leased,
while Holly Courts has 100% occupancy.
The following is a summary of fact concerning each project: Cal. 1-1
Holly Courts 2.68 acres. 118 units, $558,000; Cal. 1-2 Potrero Terrace
17.16 acres. 469 units, $2,203,000; Cal. 1-3 Sunnydale 48.83 acres, 772
units. $3,530,000; Cal. 1-4 Valencia Gardens 4.96 acres, 246 units,
$1,255.00; Cal. 1-5 Bernal Dwellings 4.47 acres, 201 units, $1,041,000;
Cal. 1-8 Westside Court 2.604 acres, 136 units, $689,000; Cal. 1-9 De Haro
Plaza 4.822 acres, 132 units, $77,000; Cal. 1-10 Hunters View 15.15 acres,
150 units, $1,114,000; Cal. 1-llR North Beach Place 4.602 acres, 226
units, $1,270,000; Cal. 1-15 Chinatown 2.617 acres, 232 units, $1,517,000;
Cal. 1-16R Glen Crags 29.06 acres, 171 units, $930,000.
Our various loan contracts have recently been consolidated by the
United States Housing Authority into one contract aggregating $14.-
885,000.00, thus greatly simplifying our loan set-up and accounting
procedures. The suit of Antonia Kleiber against the City and County
of San Francisco and the Housing Authority was decided on October
30, 1941, in the Supreme Court of California in favor of the City and
the Authority. This Supreme Court decision will affect a very material
saving in interest rates to the Authority, by clearing the way for a
temporary loan note issue which will be placed on the market some
time early in 1942.
All members of the management and maintenance staff of project
and central oflSces are enrolled 100% of Civilian Defense, while mem-
bers of the maintenance staff residing at projects have been made
air raid wardens. During the recent blackouts, all projects were com-
pletely l)lacked out within five minutes of the alarm. Sand has been
deposited at strategic locations for use in the event of fire, and copies
of air raid instructions have been reprinted and distributed to every
tenant family. Rents have been adjusted for tenant families whose
incomes have been sharply curtailed due to the wage earner's induction
into the State Guard.
186 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
Arrangements have been affected for cooperation with the Navy
and Red Cross for housing evacuee families fleeing war conditions,
with provisions for a limited number of furnished houses to care for
those who are In greatest need. The facilities of social halls, kitchens
and craft rooms have been offered for the use of Civilian Defense
activities. Our project management has made baths and rooms available
to small Army units stationed near the projects. We will continue to
cooperate in every way possible with the Office of Civilian Defense.
Message ordered printed at length in the Journal, and filed.

192 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
ing about a state of war between the United States of America and the
Empire of Japan; and
Whereas, Japan's aggression while peace negotiations were progress-
ing between the United States and Japan brought about tlie possibility

to lives and property in San Francisco; and
Whereas, Mayor Rossi promptly on December 7, 1941, recognized the
danger to San Francisco wliich had been created and, acting within
powers given him by Section 25 of the Charter of the City and County of
San Francisco, declared that a state of emergency tlireatening the lives,

pervisors, which listing consists of nine duplicated pages, the items
grouped under headings of funds from which allocations were made and
the items dated consecutively from December 18, 1941, to January 20,

ered and approved by a special committee on emergency purchases and
personnel appointed by the Mayor, wliich committee consisted of the
Chief Administrative Officer, the Controller, the Administrative Assis-
tant to the Mayor, and, with regard to personnel, the secretary of the
Civil Service Commission, and the allocation of funds ordered by the
Mayor to cover such expenditures were made by tlie Controller of the

Whereas, Examination of said listing of allocations of funds to meet
emergency expenditures shows them to have been made in an orderly
manner, with the single objective of meeting the emergency that existed,

Now, Therefore, Be It Resolved, That this Board of Supervisors hereby
confirms and approves the allocation of funds in the listing referred to

Requesting Mayor and Civilian Defense Council to Give Immediate
Consideration to Appointment of Two Additional Inspectors for
Night PoHcing of Incoming Fruits and Vegetables.
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, In the state of emergency that now exists we cannot be too
careful in the inspection of the fruits and vegetables coming into San
Francisco ; and
Whereas, 98 per cent of all the fruits and vegetables that are sold in
San Francisco are handled through the wholesale market; and
Whereas, All of the fruit and vegetables that come into the wholesale
market are inspected by the County Agricultural Commission, of which
Mr. William F. Carroll is the chief; and
Whereas, Mr. Carroll has only five inspectors under his jurisdiction;
and
Whereas, These five inspectors work only days, thus leaving no men
for night policing; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That this Board of Supervisors respectfully request the
Mayor and the Civilian Defense Council to give immediate considera-
tion to the appointment of two additional inspectors to be placed under
Mr. Carroll's jurisdiction to be used for night policing of incoming fruits
and vegetables.
Supervisor Shannon, after explaining the foregoing matter, requested
re-reference thereof to the Chief Administrative Officer, for his recom-
mendation and report.
No objection and so ordered.
Re-reference to Committee
The following recommendations of the Police Committee were taken
up:
Present: Supervisors Gallagher, Green, Uhl.
Proposing Immediate Decision of Designation of Certain One-Way
Streets
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, The 1941 Grand Jury in its report urges action on the traf-
fic problem; and
Whereas, Improvement in traffic is of paramount importance; and
Whereas, Among the proposals of the Grand Jury the following pro-
posals should have immediate consideration:
ONE-WAY STREETS:
Pine Street, one-way east from Market Street to Presidio Avenue.
Bush Street, one-way west, from Presidio Avenue to Market Street.
Turk Street, one-way east, from Divisadero to Mason Street.
Eddy Street, one-way west from Powell to Divisadero Street.
That immediate decision should be made on the foregoing proposals.
Discussion
Supervisor Green, in discussing the foregoing matter, announced that
although he realized something had to be done to correct traffic con-
ditions, he had voted against this proposal in committee. The traffic
problem has been before the Board so long that he did not believe a
further delay of a couple of weeks was too much to request. The City
200 MONDAY, JANUARY 26, 1942
Planning Commission has many thoughts concerning one way streets.
Adopting tliis Resolution may throw everything out of line in respect
to what is being proposed for the future.
Supei-visor Gallagher reported that in committee there was some
question as to the right of the Board to pass this matter. The City
Attorney's advice has been requested thereon.
Thereupon, the City Attorney, who was present in the Chambers, an-
nounced that the question of the jurisdiction of the Board, in such
matters, was still under consideration in his office, and he was not yet
ready to furnish the opinion requested.
Point of Order
Supervisor Mead raised a point of order, calling attention to the
matter as piesented, consisting of seveial "Whereases" and no "Re-
solve," stating that the matter was not properly drawn, and that there
was, therefore, nothing before the Board.
The Chair ruled the point of order well taken.
The City Attorney declared that if the Board of Supervisors had the
powei' to regulate traffic without any recommendation by the Police De-
partment, it must do so by ordinance. Violation of any regulation
cannot be made a penal offtnse by Resolution.
After further brief discussion, the Chair announced that it would be
in order to refer the entire matter back to Committee.
Whereupon, Supervisor Uhl moved re-reference to Committee.
Supervisor O'Gara inquired as to the possibility of having a committee
or representative from the City Planning Commission, the Police De-
partment and the City Attorney's office present at the committee
hearing. If possible, he desired to see that no additional re-reference
to committee would be necessary. He desired, also, to know if the City
Planning Commission, or its Secretary, Mr. Jorgensen, could let the
Board know the reaction of that Commission to such proposals to make
certain streets "one-way" streets.
Mr. Mark Jorgensen, thereupon, referred to progress report submitted
by the City Planning Commission, January 15th, copy of which was sent
to all members of the Board. In that I'eport it was stated that progress
has been made and studies of traffic problems are receiving serious
consideration. He suggested that the Resolution under consideration
might be referred to his Commission, and to the Police Commission,
foi' repoi'ts from both those agencies.
The Chair, however, pursuant to motion by Supervisor Uhl, referred
the matter back to the Police Committee.

is ill.
Whereupon, Mrs. Calverley, on being granted the privilege of the
floor, explained the purposes of the organization she was representing,
and what it was trying to do. Mrs. Alma Spreckels Awl and Mrs.
Prentiss-Cobb Hale have organized a group of women to help take care
of some of the things the many young boys in the armed forces, who
pass through San Francisco en route to their various destinations need.
The committee needs magazines, books, candy, cigarettes, matches, to-
bacco, playing cards, games, stationery, etc., to give to these boys, to
make their usually brief visits in San Francisco more enjoyable, and
citizens are urged to help in the work that is being done.
Supervisor Shannon announced that it was he who had arranged for
the privilege of the floor for Mrs. Alma Spreckels Awl at the meeting of
January 19th. but she had been unable to appear at that time. He had
intended, under his name on Roll Call, to ask the privilege of the floor
for Mrs. Calverley. However, he urged that members of the Board, and
all citizens do whatevei- they could to aid the work being carried on by
Mrs. Alma Spreckels Awl. Mrs. Prentiss-Cobb Hale, Mrs. Calverley and
the other ladies.
Expression of Good Wishes to Supervisor Roncovieri

Whereas, Mr. Cairoll has only five inspectors under his jurisdiction;

Consideration Postponed
An Appeal to the Secretary of the Interior to Petition the United
States District Court to Grant, for the Duration of This War,
a Stay of Execution of the Court Decision to Cancel the City's
Agreement with the Pacific Gas and Electric Company for the
Resale of Electric Power Generated on the City's Hetch Hetchy
Project.
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, The President of the United States and Congress have de-
clared that a state of war exists between our country and Japan, Ger-
many and Italy; and
W'hereas, "All-out" production of the materials of war is essential
for our successful conclusion of this war, and the generation of electi'ic
powder is a vital factor in such production; and
W^hereas, The City and County of San Francisco, tlirougli the facili-
ties of its Hetch Hetchy Project, is now generating a part of the electric
power required for such purposes in the City and County; and
Whereas. The Supreme Court of the United States has decided that
the sale or distribution for resale of the electric power generated on the
City's Hetch Hetchy Project through the agency of the Pacific Gas and
Electric Company is in violation of tlie provisions of Section 6 of the
Raker Act; and
Whereas, The United States District Court has granted a stay of exe-
cution of said Court decision until July 1, 1942; and
Whereas, The enforcing of this Supreme Court decision during the
duration of the war will impose great hardships on the people of the
City and County of San Francisco by curtailing the revenue derived
from the sale of this electric power and consequently will increase their
tax burden at a time when they are hard pressed to provide money for
the many projects required for the defense of their country during this
war period; and
Whereas, Congress will be continuously engaged with emergency war
legislation and the innumerable problems of war and will undoubtedly
find it difficult to devote sufficient time to hearing and acting on the
pleas of our citizens to amend the Raker Act; now, therefore, be it
Resolved. That the Board of Supervisors of the City and County of
San Francisco does hereby appeal to the Secretary of the Interior, Hon-
orable Harold L. Ickes. to petition the United States District Court to
grant, for the duration of this war. a stay of execution of the Court de-
cision canceling the City's agreement with the Pacific Gas and Electric
Company for the sale for resale of electric power generated on the City's
Hetch Hetchy Project ; and be it
Further Resolved. That this Board of Supervisors in adopting this
resolution hereby declares that it does so only in the interest of national
unity for the successful prosecution of the war. and to permit our Con-
gress and our City officials to devote their entire time and effort to this
accomplishment; and be it
Further Resolved, That Honoi-able Angelo J. Rossi. Mayor of the City
and County of San Francisco, is requested to transmit this resolution
to tlie Secretary of the Inteiior. Honorable Harold L. Ickes. for his
consideration.

Whereas. The people of the City and County of San Francisco dem-
onstrated conclusively their antipathy for such undemocratic legislation
through the election, by overwhelming odds, of the opponents thereof,
and
Whereas. It was the campaign pledge of those opposed to this special

now. therefore, be it
Resolved, That the City Attorney be and he is hereby requested

Urging the Federal Government to Provide Housing and Suste-
nance for Those Japanese Residents of the City and County of
San Francisco who would Otherwise Become Charges of Said
City and County, and to Transfer Japanese Aliens from Coastal
Areas to Inland Points.
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor Gallagher presented Resolution No as follows:
Whereas, There are 93,717 Japanese residents of the State of Cali-
fornia of which 33,569 are aliens, including 2,273 alien .Japanese resi-
dents of the City and County of San Francisco; and
Whereas, Many Japanese aliens have been interned here, leaving
their dependents without means of support; and
Whereas. Many more Japanese have lost their employment as a
result of war complications and are in need of some means of public
support; and
Whereas, The City and County of San Francisco is without funds
to care for the large numbers of additional Japanese who may ])ecome
dependent on relief through circumstances arising out of the war; and
Whereas, Because Japanese aliens are a potential source of danger
to our security, it would be advisable for the Federal government to
transfer them from Pacific Coast areas and care for them at inland
points wheie they could till the soil far removed from airfields, power
and water lines and other strategic defense facilities; and
Whereas, In the event of an invasion of California by forces of
Japan, the civil population of California would be unable to cope with
the large Japanese population which would constitute a potentially
dangerous fifth column enemy; and
Whereas, It is difficult if not impossible to distinguish between
loyal and disloyal Japanese aliens; now, therefore, be it
R: solved. That the Federal Government be and it is hereby urged
to provide housing and sustenance for Japanese who otherwise may
become charges on the City and County; and, be it
Further Resolved. That Japanese aliens be transferred from coastal
areas to inland points for reasons explained herein; and, be it
Further Resolved, That copies of this Resolution be sent to the
President of the United States, to the two California Senators, to
the City and County of San Francisco delegation in Congress and to
the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

Free Transportation for Men m U. S. Military Service
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor Gallagher pi'esented Resolution No as follows:
Whereas, The United States of America with its allies is now en-
gaged in war against the Axis powers, and
Whereas, San Francisco is the hub of a great area within which
are being concenti-ated the forces necessary to conquer the enemy, and
Whereas, The men who compiise these forces have left their homes,
families, friends, jolis and all that is cherished l)y a freedom-loving
I)f()pl(' for the i)urpose of defeating tlie foes of democracy, and
Whereas, The pay of these men being insignificant l)y comparison
with the sacrifice they offer and inadeciuate for other than necessities
it would appear prudent as a patriotic and decent gesture to manifest,
in some small measure, the .gratitude, appreciation and concern for
MONDAY. FEBRUARY 2. 1942 223
their welfare which the people of San Francisco feel for the men of the
aimed forces, and
Whereas, Although trivial in monetary value, one way in which
San Francisco can evidence its interest in and regard for the Service
men is to provide them with free transportation on our stieet car
systems; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That this Board of Supei-vlsors does hereby direct its
Public Utilities Committee, at as early a date as possible, to call a
meeting for the purpose of considering the proposal set forth in this
Resolution: to invite the attendance of representatives of the Public
Utilities Commission, the Market Street Railway Company, the Cali-
fornia Street Cable Railroad Company and other interested parties,
including representatives of Service men's welfare organizations, and
to seek to elicit an agreement from the representatives of all of San
Francisco's street railway systems to provide free transportation for
Service men.

Authorizing Provision for Angle Parking in Vicinity of Shipyards,
Factories, etc., Engaged in National Defense Work

Resolution No. 2411, as follows:
Whereas, On January 18th, 1942, the Board of Supervisors passed a
Resolution providing for no parking on certain streets in the vicinity
of Bethlehem Shipyards; and

relief as is possible for those workers engaged in the national defense.
Now, Therefore, Ee it Resolved That the Board of Police Commission-
ers is hereby authorized to provide for angle parking on those streets

(Series of 1939)
Supervisor Mead presented, for Supervisor Shannon Resolution
No , as follows:
Whereas. Spurious rumors are being circulated throughout the
Nation to the effect that a condition borderin.g on chaos exists here;
MONDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1942 227
that business, social and othtr ordinary and normal functions liave
been striously interfered with or suspended; that tliere is acute appre-
hension anioung oui- people and that actual bombings, invasion or the
dire happenings attendant upon war are occuiring; and
Whereas, While San Francisco is fully cognizant of the gravity of the
situation which confronts not only the Pacific Coast but the United
States genei'ally and is taking all possible measures to protect its
citizens and their property, there is a complete absence of hysteria in
San Fiancisco and except that we are alert and preparing for any
eventuality, business and other ordinary and normal functions are
proceeding as usual ; and
Whereas. The false rumors in circulation about San Francisco are
the more despicable because they are apparently emanating from cit-
izens of the United States of America and impose the additional and
unnecessary duty upon already busy authorities of refuting them; and
Whereas. San Francisco is a vital location for the concentration of
the men and materials and the construction of implements necessary
to the successful conduct of the war and libelous and false statements
made with respect to the integrity of San Francisco may have a de-
tei'rtnt effect upon the civilian population necessary to the conduct of
the important role which San Francisco is performing in the great
battle for freedom: now, therefore, be it
Resolved. That his Honor, the Mayor, be and is hereby requested to
appoint a committee of reputable and representative citizens from
among labor, business and the press, whose function and duty it shall
be. as soon as possible, to arrange, through various news sei'vices,
local publicity and such other means as are necessary and available,
for the dissemination, honestly and without reservation of such news
about San Francisco as is fair and true, and for the repression of that
"news" which is false, based upon rumor or emanates from an irre-
sponsible source.

Relief to Dependent Non-Residents
Supervisor Colman presented:
February 2, 1942
Honorable Board of Supervisors
City Hall
San Francisco
Gentlemen:
For the itAst several days there have been several conferences be-
tween the Public Welfare Department and the Community Chest as to
who should give relief to the technical non-residents of San Francisco
who are not entitled to receive relief from the City under the terms
of the present ordinance regulating that matter.
I am enclosing you herewith letter from the Chairman of the Public
Welfare Commission. It speaks for itself. It is my opinion that the
matter referred to by Mr. McAuliffe is an obligation which, in some
way, should be cared for by the City. The Community Chest has
declined to bear the burden any longer and we cannot leave these
people in want, even if they are only technical residents of the City.
I would therefore suggest that the matter receive your most careful
consideration and that some legislation be enacted which, if possible,
will modify the provisions of the present ordinance so that some
relief might be granted to these dependents.
Respectfully,
(Signed) ANGELO .1. ROSSI.
Mayor.

San Francisco, Calif.
January 3L 1942
Hon. Ans^elo J. Rossi, Mayor
City and County of San Francisco
City Hall
San Francisco. California
Dear Mayor Rossi:
The following summarizes the correspondence and meetings between
Your Honor and representatives of the Community Chest and the
Public Welfare Commission relative to relief for dependent non-
residents, which group of persons has been receiving relief through
the private agencies of the Community Chest since June, 19?>9.
Under date of November 26. 1941, Mr. James K. MofTitt, President of
the Community Chest of San Fi-ancisco wrote to you informing you
of the action of the General Executive Committee of the Commujiity
Chest on November 24. 1941, to discontinue care for dependent non-
residents as of December 31, 1941.
On December 6, 1941 you wrote to Mr. MofRtt informing him that
the Welfare and Institutions Code provides that the counties may
extend only emergency aid to persons who do not meet the residence
I'equirements of the Indigent Act. The following concluding paragraph
is quoted from your letter:
"It is therefore quite apparent that if the proposed action
of the Community Chest be carried out, the group of dependent
non-residents will be uncared for in this community. Of
course, I realize the Community Chest, being a purely volun-
tary agency, can detei'mine its own policies, but l)ecause of
the extreme significance of the policy proposed, I would suggest
a meeting in my office of a committee from your group with
the Public Welfare Commission and myself. If such a meeting-
is agreeable to you, may I expect a telephone call for the
purpose of settling a date for same."
Under date of December 20, 1941, Mr. Ransom F. Carver, Executive
Director of the Community Chest wrote to you stating that a committee
of the Community Chest would l)e glad to meet with you and members
of the Public Welfare Commission concerning this matter.
On December 30, 1941, a meeting was held in your office at which
representatives of the Community Chest stated that the relief to
dependent non-residents would i)e continued through the Community
Chest agencies for the month of January, 1942 and it was agreed that
duiing this interval City Attornty John J. O'Toole would make a
study of the state law concerning the legal authority for counties to
extend continuing I'elief to non-residents and would render an opinion
thereon.
On January 20, 1942, Mr. James K. Moffitt again wrote to you.
stating that no appropi-iation was authorized beyond January 31, 1942.
for i-eiml)ursement to agencies for the care of non-residents.
Under date of January 28, 1942, City Attorney John J. O'Toole sub-
mitted an opinion, stating in part that, in connection with the Welfare
and Institutions Code, "It is evident that it was the intention of the
law-makers lo distinguish between emergency relief to l)e granted to
non-residents and relief which might be granted to those who qualified
as residents of the county", and, in connection with Ordinance No. 121,
enacted by the Board of Supervisors on April 3. 1939, "The Board did,
by this oi-dinance, exercise the authority vested in it by Section 2501
of the Code l)y pi'oviding, in Section 3 of the ordinance, that the Public
Welfare Commission could not grant any emergency relief to any
MONDAY, FEBRUARY 2. 1942 229
dependent non-resident for a period longer than in any event,
ninety days."
Tlie final paragraph of his opinion reads as follows:
"You are therefore advised that the Public Welfare Depart-
ment has no right to grant relief to non-residents for a period
exceeding ninety days."
This morning. January 31. 1942 a meeting was held with you. in
your office. It was attended l)y representatives of the Community
Chest, the Public Welfare Commission and the Board of Supervisors
and by City Attorney 0"Toole and Chief Assistant Controller Harry
Ross. At that meeting it was agreed that legislation should be pre-
sented to the State Legislature and to the Board of Supervisors of the
City and County of San Francisco proposing amendments to the existing
state law to make it possible for the Public Welfare Commission legally
to assume the continuing care of dependent non-residents. It was also
agreed by the representatives of the Community Chest that they would
present the matter to the General Executive Committee of the Com-
munity Chest in order that the dependent non-resident cases cared
for by the Chest up to January 31, 1942 might continue to receive care
pending the enactment of new legislation.
It was further stated by Chief Assistant Controller Ross that even
though existing legislation is changed prior to July 1, 1942 the
responsibility for the continuing care of dependent non-residents
could not be assumed by the City and County until that time because
of the lack of funds.
In view of the foregoing, the recommendations of the Public Welfare
Commission are as follows:
(1) That, in conformity with the opinion of City Attorney John
J. O'Toole, relief to dependent non-residents be extended only
as set forth in Ordinance No. 121 of the Board of Supervisors
of the City and County of San Francisco.
(2) That if the Board of Supervisors wishes to attempt to obtain
an amendment to the Welfare and Institutions Code of the
; State of California at the next session of the legislature, and
to amend Ordinance No. 121 in accordance with any change in
the state law. the Public Welfare Commission would have no
objection to this procedure;
(3) That, if an amendment to the state law is to be made making
it possible for the counties to extend relief to those who
under the present law do not meet the residence requirements,
the following wording be used in such amendment:
"Section 2501. Every county may aid needy persons who
possess no residence eligibility in this state but who are in
urgent need of relief for protection of life and limb, providing,
however, that such aid shall not be given for a period to exceed
90 days unless said non-residents have no legal residence for
purposes of relief in any other state, in which case the county
may grant relief for any necessary period."
This wording is suggested in order that the purpose of relieving
the Chest of the cost of caring for the dependent non-residents can be
accomplished while still maintaining a reasonable protection to San
Francisco against a great influx of non-residents.
Very truly yours,
F. M. McAULIFFE. Chairman,
Public Welfare Commission.

Discussion
President Jesse C. Colman announced that he wanted to discuss the
foregoing matter, and for that reason desired to relinquish the Chair,
and would request Supervisor Mead to act as Chairman.
Supervisor Colman. after the foregoing Special Order had been called
up, announced that he recognized fully the fact that the Resolution
before the Board was introduced in the best of faith and for the purpose
of accomplishing a very worthy purpose. However, due to conditions
that have arisen he believed, and he intended to explain his reasons
therefor, that the previous action of the Board, in adoptting the
Resolution be rescinded, and he would so move.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Uhl, who stated that by his second,
he was not implying that he would vote for the motion.
Thereupon, Supervisor Colman announced that due to unfortunate
circumstances one side of the controversy knew nothing of the proposed
Resolution, while the other side did. He realized that Supervisor Mead
had objected to immediate consideration when the Resolution was first
presented to the Board, but subsequently had withdrawn his objection.
He, himself, had the opportunity to object to immediate consideration,
but had not done so. He believed though, that the action of the Board
had been premature, and the Resolution should have been considered
in committee, where all parties to the controversy could have been
heard. For that reason he believed the Board's action should be re-
scinded and the Resolution referred to committee.
Supervisor Mead remarked that during the past week, due to news-
paper publicity, all parties to the co"ntroversy must have learned of
the Resolution and the proposed hearing by the Board. They have been
amply informed.
Supervisor Green desired it to be understood that he would oppose
any attempt to permit the proposed matter's reference to committee
for the purpose of letting it die. He believed the Board should have
the right to bring in parties to any dispute affecting the welfare of the
people, and find out why such parties could not get together for the
public good.
236 MONDAY. FEBRUARY 9. 1942
Mr. Eugene O'Dounell, repi-esenting hotel employers, stated he was
present merely as an observer. However, in reply to questioning by
Supervisor O'Gara. he stated he would prefer a hearing "today," then
reference to committee and then a further hearing in the Board at a
later date.
Mr. John F. Shelly, representing labor, announced that he was pre-
pared to go ahead with the hearing, without further delay. His state-
ment would be very brief, but he desired the matter to be fairly and
equitably settled. He believed a delay and reference to committee
might prejudice a speedy settlement of the strike. The strike has
already been certified to the War Labor Board by the Secretary of
Labor, and the matter is now in the hands of a sub-committee of that
Board, which is gathering data for report back to Washington. Reports
have been made by employer groups that the War Labor Board does not
need to take jurisdiction in the matter, and arguments have been made
in Washington to keep that Board from taking jurisdiction. If the
matter goes to committee, there may be further arguments for delay
advanced.
Supervisor O'Gara announced that although he had received a com-
munication from the Hotel Employers Association, which he did not like,
he believed the Board could get nowhere in assisting the parties to
the dispute unless it started with the cooperation and confidence of
both parties. For that reason he would vote for Supervisor Colman's
motion, although he was doing so reluctantly.
Supervisor MacPhee suggested that a week's postponement would
afford time for all parties to be notified and proper hearing be
accorded. He would, therefore, move, as an amendment to the motion,
that consideration be postponed until Monday, February 16, 1942, at
3:00 P. M.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Gallagher.
Supervisor Colman opposed the amendment to his motion. He be-
lieved the better way to handle the matter would be to rescind the
previous action of the Board, after which the Resolution could be
re-introduced by Supervisor O'Gara, referi-ed to proper committee for
hearing, and then brought into the Board. In explaining his vote.
Supervisor Colman stated that the matter came before the Board, and
was acted on before the hotel men had any opportunity of knowing the
matter was to be considered. That is the fact which they are protesting.
They should have had an opportunity of presenting their views before
a committee of the Board.
Supervisor MacPhee pointed out that on February 4, 1942, as evi-
denced by the date on the letter from the Hotel Employers' Associa-
tion, the hotel employer group knew about the hearing and he could
see no good reason why they could not be present, and cooperate with
the Board, and endeavor to settle the problem.
Supervisor Mead, in explanation of his vote against the amendment
announced that after discussing the matter with interested parties, he
was of the opinion that the matter should be heard without further
delay.
Amendment to Motion Defeated
Thereupon, the roll was called, and the amendment to the motion, to
provide for postponement of further discussion until Monday, February
16, 1942, at 3:00 P. M., was defeated by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown. Gallagher, MacPhee, Uhl — 4.
Noes: Supervisors Colman, (Jreen, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara — 5.
Absent: Supervisors Roncovieri. Shannon— 2.
I*rivilege of the Floor
Mr. John F. Shelly, on again being granted the privilege of the floor,
announced that his only fear was that rescinding the previous action
of the Board, and reference of the Resolution to Committee, would be
MONDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 1942 237
used as the basis for the other side of the controversy to notify the
War Labor Board that the San Francisco Board of Supervisors was
attempting to mediate the differences in the hotel industry, and so
the War Labor Board should not take the jurisdiction and go ahead
with the matter. His people desired quick and just settlement of the
matter.
Motion for Recess
Supervisor Uhl. thereupon, moved that the Board recess, to reconvene
on Wednesday. February 11, at 2:00 P. M., to consider further the
matter, and that interested parties be invited to be present.
The Chair ruled that another motion was before the Board, and that
Supervisor Uhl's motion to recess could not be entertained until after
action on motion to rescind the previous action of the Board whereby
the Resolution in question had previously been adopted.
Whereupon, Supervisor Uhl announced his intention to vote for the
motion to rescind, but stated that immediately after that motion was
disposed of, he would renew his motion to recess.
Motion to Rescind Carried
Thereupon, the roll was again called, and the motion to rescind the
previous action taken on the Resolution carried by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Green, O'Gara, Uhl — 5.

of other matters before it, recess, to reconvene on Wednesday, Febru-
ary 11, 1942, at 2:00 P. M., and that the matter be heard by the Board,
sitting as a Committee of the Whole.

matter be heard by a Joint Committee of Commercial Development and

An Appeal to the Secretary of the Interior to Petition the United
States Districi Court to Grant, for the Duration of This War,
a Stay of Execution of the Court Decision to Cancel the City's
Agreement with the Pacific Gas and Electric Company for the
Resale of Electric Power Generated on the City's Hetch Hetchy
Project.
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, The President of the United States and Congress have de-
clared that a state of war exists between our country and Japan, Ger-
many and Italy; and
Whereas, "All-out" production of the materials of war is essential
for our successful conclusion of this war, and the generation of electric
power is a vital factor in such production; and
Whereas. The City and County of San Francisco, through the facili-
ties of its Hetch Hetchy Project, is now generating a part of the electric
power required for such purposes in the City and County; and
Whereas, The Supreme Court of the United States has decided that
the sale or distribution for resale of the electric power generated on the
City's Hetch Hetchy Project through the agency of the Pacific Gas and
Electric Company is in violation of the provisions of Section 6 of the
Raker A?t; and
252 MONDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 1942
Whereas, The United States District Court has granted a stay of exe-
cution of said Court decision until July 1, 1942; and
Whereas, The enforcing of this Supreme Court decision during the
duration of the war will impose great hardships on the people of the
City and County of San Francisco by curtailing the revenue derived
from the sale of this electric power and consequently will increase their
tax burden at a time when they are hard pressed to provide money for
the many projects required for the defense of their country during this
war period; and
Whereas, Congress will be continuously engaged with emergency war
legislation and the innumerable problems of war and will undoubtedly
hnd it difficult to devote sufficient time to hearing and acting on the
pleas of our citizens to amend the Raker Act; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors of the City and County of
San Francisco does hereby appeal to the Secretary of the Interior, Hon-
orable Harold L. Ickes, to petition the United States District Court to
grant, for the duration of this war, a stay of execution of the Court de-
cision canceling the City's agreement with the Pacific Gas and Electric
Company for the sale for resale of electric power generated on the City's
Hetch Hetchy Project; and be it
Further Resolved, That this Board of Supervisors in adopting this
resolution hereby declares that it does so only in the interest of national
unity for the successful prosecution of the war, and to permit our Con-
gress and our City officials to devote their entire time and effort to this
accomplishment; and be it
Further Resolved, That Honorable Angelo J. Rossi, Mayor of the City
and County of San Francisco, is requested to transmit this resolution
to the Secretary of the Interior, Honorable Harold L. Ickes, for his
consideration.
February 2, 1942 — Consideration continued until February 9, 1942.
Supervisor Colman reported that the foiegoing Resolution had been
presented to the Congressional Committee by the Committee which
went to Washington, D. C, to endeavor to secure the amendment of the
Raker Act. He believed the Res<51ution should be adopted, hut. in view
of the fact that the Committee had just returned from Washington, and
the Resolution could well have the advantage of consideration of that
Committee, action should be postponed for one week.
Whereupon, on motion by Supeivisor Meyer, seconded by Supervisor
Gallagher, no objection being voiced, consideration was postponed until
Monday. February 16. 1942.

Privilege of the Floor
Mr. Mark .Torgt'iiscn, rcprcsi'utiiig tlu> City Planning Commission,
who. on motion by Supervisor Mead was granted the i)iivilege of the
floor, announced that he was not opposing the adoption of the foregoing
MONDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 1942 255
Resolution, but did desire to call the Board's attention to the fact
that property in the district is to be subdivided, but maps of the sub-
division have not yet been approved. He believed that the closing of
portion of Blair Street should net be consummated until after the
approval of the maps.
In reply to observations by Supervisor Uhl, Mr. Jorgensen stated that
delay in closing Blair Street would not cause any delay in construction
in the district. Blair Street, though, should not be closed until another
street, satisfactory to the City and County of San Francisco, is deeded
to the City and County.
Whereupon, Supervisor MacPhee moved postponement of further
consideration for two weeks, in order that a new map of the proposed
subdivision can be presented and approved. Blair Street, he continued,
could not be closed without having another street, satisfactory in
width, turning area, etc., can be opened up.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Uhl.
The Chair, however, suggested re-reference to committee, rather than
postponement for two weeks, with the understanding that the committee
report the matter back to the Board by Tuesday, February 24, 1942.
Supervisor MacPhee consenting, and no objection being raised, the
foregoing Resolution was re-referred to the Streets Committee, with the
understanding that the Committee would report back to the Board
by February 24, 1942.

Consideration of Negotiation for Settlement of Hotel Strike
The following Resolution, presented in the Board on Monday. Feb-
ruary 2, 1942, by Supervisor O'Gara, and adopted by the Board on that
date, the action on which was rescinded by the Board at its meeting
of February 9, 1942, was taken up:
Urging Parties to Hotel Labor Controversy to Cooperate Toward
Immediate Settlement
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor O'Gara presented Resolution No. 2414, as follows:
Wheieas, In the present crisis, we believe it to be the first duty of
all citizens and organizations to devote their full energies to the sup-
port of our nation's fight in the cause of freedom: and
Whereas, At the time of our nation's being treacherously attacked
by Japan several San Francisco industries were involved in lal)or con-
troversies and picketing was then and is now still going on; and
Whereas. The hotel controversy is said to involve our military forces;
and
Whereas, There are said to be instances of serious interference with
Civilian Defense efforts and proper housing facilities for evacuees
and employees engaged in defense production; and
Whereas, These controversies are making it impossible to obtain
whole-hearted cooperation and unity between organized labor and em-
ployers; and
Whereas, Our entire community and the war etlort is adversely af-
fected by the continuance of tliesc disi)utes; and
Whereas, The efforts of the Mayor of San Francisco, the U. S. Con-
ciliation Service, tiie Labor Division of the Office of Production Man-
agement, and many disinterested citizens of San Francisco have failed
to bring about a settlement and Labor Secretary Perkins has certified
this contioversy to the War Labor Board but said Board has not yet
accepted said controveisy for hearing; now, tlurcfore, be it
I
WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 11. 1942 265
Resolved, That the San Francisco Board of Supervisors recognize
the necessity for the immediate fair settlement of these disputes; and
he it
Further Resolved, That in the public interest both parties to these
disputes be called upon to cooperate toward an immediate settlement;
and, be it
Further Resolved, That unless the War Board accepts said controversy
for hearing, the Board of Supervisors hold a meeting on this matter,
sitting as a Committee of the Whole, at as early a date as possible,
and invite all interested parties to appear and state their views, and
that at the conclusion of this hearing this Board take such action as
may be appropriate to bring about immediate settlement of this con-
troversy.
Discussion
Immediately prior to the consideration of the foregoing Resolution,
communications were presented, and read by the Clerk, as follows:
From San Francisco Employers Council, announcing that inasmuch
as the Council felt that its attendance at the meting would serve no
useful purpose, the Council must decline to attend the meeting.
From Hotel Employers Association of San Francisco, presenting
the views of the hotels concerning the present hotel strike situation.
From San Francisco Labor Council, transmitting statement from
California State Federation of Labor, together with Resolution of said
Council, concerning the hotel strike situation.
From Hotel Employers Association of San Francisco, addressed to
Supervisor MacPhee, and reading as follows:
February 4, 1942.
Honorable Chester MacPhee,
Supervisor, City and County of San Francisco,
City Hall, Civic Center,
San Francisco. California.
Dear Mr. MacPhee:
The members of the Hotel Employers Association of San Francisco
have learned through the press that you are one of the Supervisoi's
who on Monday approved a Resolution purporting to constitute your
Board a mediator in the present hotel dispute.
I am instructed by this Association's directors to advise you they
consider that the Board by its action has inadvertently made itself
a party to a scheme deliberately engineered by certain labor leaders.
Our directors believe that those responsible for the Resolution were
not interested whatever in your Board's capacity for mediation. To
the contrary, they feel you were merely "used" for the purpose of
giving the War Labor Board in Washington the utterly false impres-
sion, direct from this city's authorities, that chaotic conditions exist
In San Francisco's hotels.
By this Resolution, its sponsors have extorted from the Supervisors
an official but erroneous report picturing "serious interference" with
the housing of military, naval and other defense guests in the San
Francisco hotels intending thereby to influence War Labor Board action
in this dispute.
Such representations are entirely untrue. Every picketed hotel has
been operating in an orderly, normal manner in every department and
will continue to do so. All guests whether military, naval, civilian
defense or otherwise, have enjoyed complete normal housing and full
hotel facilities. Defense agencies have had the fullest cooperation
and service from every one of this Association's twenty-seven hotels.
It would seem that San Francisco business has been harmed enough
by the scare of blackouts, fifth column and submarine activities. But
to top this, one would hardly expect our own Supervisors to go out of
266 WEDNESDAY. FEBRUARY 11, 1942
their way to daiken the picture further by broadcasting entirely ficti-
tious reports of hotel housing chaos.
Had any member of your Board extended to the hotels some advance
notice of your Resolution, we would have had a representative present
to explain the facts and point out the Resolution's inaccuracies. But
evidently as part of the steam roller program, this was deliberately
avoided. Its sponsors knew that one negative vote could have blocked
their Resolution. It is interesting to note, however, that union officials
were present. How does it happen that they were fully informed and
not the hotels?
If the Supervisors consider the wartime pickets an eye-sore and
nuisance your Board might more properly have passed a Resolution
calling on the strike leaders to remove them. The strike leaders alone
are keeping the pickets on the sidewalks because they refuse to relax
their demand for a closed shop in the hotels. That is the only issue in-
volved. The hotels have continuously oftered to aibitrate wages and
hours but refuse to grant or arbitrate the union demand that hotel
workers be forced by management into their unions.
We desire you to know that the hotels strongly resent any ex-parte
action by the Board of Supervisors to pressure us into this un-American
act.
Very truly yours,
(Signed) J. D. SULLIVAN,
JDS:mb Managing Director.
Committee of the Whole
The Board of Supervisors, on motion by Supervisor Mead, seconded
by Supervisor O'Gara, resolved itself into a Committee of the Whole,
President Jesse C. Colman acting as Chairman.
Privilege of the Floor
On motion by Supervisor Mead, the privilege of the floor was granted
to all citizens present interested in the matter under consideration.
In reply to question by Supervisor Green, the Chair announced that
the War Labor Board had requested Mr. Paul Eliel to consider the
matter of the hotel strike, and to advise that Board whether or not it
should consider the matter.
Mr. .John F. Shelley, supplementing statement by the Chair, reported
that Mr. Paul Eliel. Professor of Industrial Relations, Stanford Uni-
versity, has been designated as Special Examiner to examine the issues
and the history of the strike, and to report to the War Labor Board
whether or not it should accept the matter for consideration. How-
ever. Labor is piesent, not to make any long argument, but to co-
operate. Labor is ready and willing to cooperate with any agency that
is honestly tiying to biing the various interests together. Labor is
anxious to work out the matter, and feels that it is to the best interest
of everyone that it be woiked out. Although the matter has been pre-
sented to many people and groups, so far the only agency that has the
matter befoie it in an official way is the War Labor Board. If Mr.
Eliel should certify that action should not be taken by the War Labor
Board, then the action of the Board of Supervisors might be helpful
in bringing together the parties to the dispute. If the War Labor
Board does take jurisdiction, no action by the Board of Supervisors
will be necessary. A recommendation l)y the Board of Supervisors
to the War Labor Board. Mr. Shelley believed, would aid in liringing
about a speedy settlement.
Supervisor Uhl qu(stione(i the advisability, or the good to be derived
from further consideration of (ho matter, since one party to the dis-
pute had declined to attend the meeting.
Mr. William McCabe. representing hotel employees, reminded the
Board that the employers had already presented their side of the ques-
tion, by letter; their views were known, and the hearing should continue.
WEDNESDAY. FEBRUARY 11, 1942 267
He discussed the Resolution, seriatim, pointing out, in his opinion.
I hat the matter was properly one to be taken up by the War Labor
Hoard. Labor was willing to have the diffei-ences considered by the
War La))or Hoard, and would agree to abide by any decision by that
I'oard. The employers have refused to discuss the matter at all. The
newspapers, too. have failed properly to present the mattei'.
Mr. Shelley, again addressing the Board, presented a summary of the
labor movement in San Francisco, since the beginning of the wai'.
On December 7. 1941. a meeting of the hotel strike committee and the
department store strike committee was called. At that meeting, real-
izing a war was on, labor took a definite position in the endeavor to
settle those, and other disputes, and pledged itself to a program which
would insure against any further stoppages of work. The next day.
Monday. Deceml)er Sth. at a meeting arranged by the Mayor and held
in the rooms of the Public Utilities Commission, it was decided that
all disputes and issues that could not be settled witliin 48 hours would
be submitted to a Board of Arbitration. The program, though, has not
l.een accepted by the employers of San Francisco. They refuse to
submit these disputes to arbitration. Labor will not. and cannot agree
to pledge itself against strikes unless there is some machinery for
adjudicating issues that might arise.
A Mr. Pendleton, member of the Executive Committee of the San
Francisco Church Federation, and Legislative Representative of the Cali-
fornia Church Council, i-epresenting himself, a group of clergymen,
and other interested citizens who believe that the principles of arbi-
tration are fundamental to democracy, held that in times like these,
disputes should not be left entirely to the parties directly involved.
No local problem, he believed, could be divorced from state and national
problems. He suggested that the Board do nothing to prolong the present'
dispute, but use its influence as public officials of San Francisco to let
the representatives of the national government know that it wants
the national government to use the machinery set up to settle this
dispute.
Mr. John O'Connell urged the Board to request the War Labor Board
to take jurisdiction over this case and settle it once and for all.
Mr. Shelley, in answer to questioning l)y Supervisor Uhl stated tliat
he did not know just how far the War Labor Board's powers extended.
The Board would, though, try to persuade the parties involved to ar-
rive at some agreement between themselves. Failing to persuade the
parties to agree, the Board will then heai- the case and make its de-
cision thereon. Then, if either side refused to abide by the decision
the Board will rely on public opinion to enforce its decision. The
Unions, though, will accept, and will live up to. any decision handed
down by the Boaid. The Pi'esident has the power to enforce the Board's
decisions, but he does not want to use that power unless it is absolutely
necessary.
Mr. Edward Vandeleui- complimented the members of the Board, and
especially Supervisor O'Gara. who had the courage to present the ques-
tioned Resolution. Labor, he stated, was willing to submit the entire
question to arbitration. The employers refuse. He hoped the Board of
.Supervisors would request the War Labor Board to take jurisdiction.
Committee of the Whole Arises and Reports
Supervisor ;\Iead moved that the Committee of the Whole rise and
report to the Board.
No objection, and so ordeied.
Adoption of Resolution Proposed
Supei-visor Mead, seconded by Supervisor O'Gara. moved adojilion
iif the Resolution.
Supervisor Uhl announced that, although he had been greatly im-
pressed by Mr. Shelley's statement, he was not ready to vote on the
Resolution until after he had heard from the employers that they were
268 WEDNESDAY. FEBRUARY 11. 1942
williiiK to Ko along. Thereupon, lie moved that the Board recess, to
reconvene the next day. to rtview the matter, and to be ready to act
iin it at that time.
Motion failed lor want of a second.
Supervisor Mead, after reviewiuK hrielly the acts of the Board fol-
lowing the first presentation of the Resolution by Supervisor O'CJara.
announced that in his opinion the intent of the Resolution had elready
been carried out. A hearing had been held, and although one side to
the controversy had declined to attmd, its views had been made known
by letter. Therefore, he continued, there is no necessity to adopt the
liesolution. With the consent of his second, he would like to withdraw
his motion for adoption, in order that he might make another motion.
Supervisor 0'(!ara disagreed with the views expressed and refused
his consent to the withdrawal of the motion to adopt. The adoption of
the Resolution would mean another meeting, in order to hear all inter-
ested i)arties and then to decide what action should be taken.
The Chaii'. after further brief discussion, ruled that the Resolution was
properly before the Board. Its adoption, however, would not prevent
the subsequent offering of any other motion.
Explanation of Votes
Supervisor Colman. President of the Board, announced his intention
to vote "No" on the adoption of the Resolution. The Board, he stated.
in the best of faith, offered its services to act as mediator in the dispute
under consideration. It invited both parties to the dispute to appear,
and it wanted to do everything po.ssible to l)i'ing about peace. One of
the parties saw fit to refuse the Board's offer, and has intimated that
it does not v.ant to submit the matter to arbitration by this Board.
This Board has no authority in the matte)-. The other party accepted
the Board's invitation. Unless both sides to the dis))ute are present,
and can be heard, the Board cannot help at all. If the Boai'd of Super-
visors wants to retain the power to arbitrate, it must convince both
sides in a dispute of its absolute fairness. However, since the offer of
the Board has been rejected by one side to the present dispute, nothing
constructive can come from a further hearin.g, with only one side
present. For that reason, he would vote "No" on adoption of the Reso-
lution.
Supervisor Uhl stated he w'ould vote for the Resolution, although he
had hoped for an opportunity to interview several of the hotel men.
Supervisor O'Oara announced that he was somewhat confused as to
the basis on which the hotel people had declined the Boaid's invitation
to be present, Mr. Almon Roth had expressed a ftelin.g which he.
Supervisor O'dara, believed was entirely wrong, and he believed the
Board should determine whether that feeling was shared by the other
hotel men. He believed the prinicples on which the hotel employers
declined to be present, were very poor, and he would vote on that basis.
H(! believed that the Board of Supervisors should make an honest
effort to bring all inteiested parties in and have thi in state what the
issues are iind what the Board of Supervisors should do. He would,
then, vote for the Resolution, and so, for the third time, extend an
invitation for the hotel men to be present and state personally, what
Ihey had so elo(|uently stated in the press and by their letters
Supervisor .MacPhee announced that it was plain to him tbat the
emi>loyers would not attend any meetings of the Board. Although
he had originally signed the Resolution, he now believed the best
interest of San Francisco would b(> served if the Resolution were voted
down, and tin- matter were to be referred to the War Labor Board,
Supervisor Mead announced that although he had moved the adoption
of the Resolution, the wording of the last "Resolve" ]iroliil)it('(l liiin
from voting for the Resolution,

Noes: Supervisors Brown. Colman. MacPhee. Mead. Meyer — 5.
Absent: Supervisors Roncovieii. Shannon — 2.
Submission to War Labor Board Proposed
Whereupon. Supervisor Mead moved that the Board of Supervisors
memorialize the War Labor Board to txercise its rightful jurisdiction
in this strike for tlie purpose of immediate settlement.
Motion seconded l)y Supervisor Meyer.
Discussion
Supervisor Brown questioned whether the purpose Intended could be
done by motion. He considered it should be done by resolution.
Thereupon. Supervisor Mead announced that in view of the objection
raised he would offer his suggestion in the form of a resolution, and he
would request the Clerk to draft same.
Whereupon. Supervisor P.rown objected to immediate consideration.
Supervisor IMead, thereupon, declined to present a resolution, stating
that he would insist upon presenting the matter as a motion.
Supervisor Brown requested that the City Attorney advise the Board
as to the proper form in which the matter should be presented.
Subsequently during the proceedings, Mi-. Walter Dold. Chief Deputy
City Attorney, being present. Supervisor Biown questioned him as
follows:
"Mr. Dold. the question that I piopounded to the Chair and on which
we called for an opinion from you was as to how the Board of Super-
visors may perform an act. Mr. Mead introduced what he styled as a
motion, which required the Board to memorialize the War Labor
Board asking them to take action in the matter of the hotel strike in
San Francisco. I raised the point of order that Mr. Mead's so-called
motion should pioperly be in the form of a resolution."
Ml'. Dold. in reply, advised that a motion can only be made by tlie
Hoard of Supervisors with regard to procedural matters in the Board;
all other action must be by resolution or ordinance. In other words,
this is not a legislative act. it is simply an act whereby the Board
memorializes another Board, in this case a Federal Board. You can
make a motion from time to time with regard to matters coming before
the Board, but anything you do with respect to matters outside the
I'loard itself must be by resolution or ordinance, and in this case, as
it is not a legislative act. it must be done by resolution.
The Chairman, thereupon announced that in view of the ruling of the
City Attorney, that ruling will be a precedent by whicli this Chair-
man will act in the futuie and fully protect every member of the
l'>oaid. He referred the resolution to the Commercial Development
and Legislative Committee.
Supervisor Mead thereupon, announced the Commercial and Lulustrial
Committee, jointly with the Legislative and Civil Service Committee,
would meet on Friday morning. February 13. 1942. at 10:(»() o'clock.
Supervisor O'Gara requested that the Clerk notify all interested
parties of tlie meeting announced by Supervisor Mead.
Appointment of Citizens Committee re Sale Hetch Hetchy Power
Supervisor (iallagher presented a resolution, requesting the Mayor to
appoint a citizens' committee to confer with Federal officials and report
to the Board of Supervisors regarding arran.gements for sale of Hetch
Hetchy power to war industries.
Referred to Fublic UtUitics Conniiittee.

Committee Report Approved
Report of the Joint Finance and Public Buildings, Lands and City
Planning Committee Relative to Employment of Madigan-Hyland
for Solution of San Francisco's Traffic and Transportation Prob-
lems.
Thursday, January 29, 1942.
To the Honorable
The Board of Supervisors
City and County of San Francisco.
Subject: Consideration of motion adopted by special committee ap-
pointed by his Honor the Mayor, relative to employment of
Madigan-Hyland for solution of San Francisco's traffic and
transportation problems.
Gentlemen:
The Joint Committee on Finance and Public Buildings, Lands and
City Planning, Supervisor MacPhee, Chairman, and Supervisors Mead,
Uhl and Galagher, Members, met on Thursday, January 29, 1942, to
consider the following motion, adopted by the special committee ap-
pointed by his Honor, the Mayor, at meeting in the office of the Chief
Administrative Officer on January 6, 1942:
"That this committee recommends to the Board of Super-
visors that the Mayor be authorized to negotiate a contract
for solution of San Francisco's traffic and transportation prob-
lems with Madigan-Hyland and after approval of such contract
by this Committee, to submit said contract to the Board of
Supervisors for approval."
His Honor, Mayor Angelo J. Rossi, outlined to the committee a
description of the work to be done by the consulting engineers, when
and if employed; he presented, also, a breakdown of the cost of such
employment, and a comparison of such cost with the estimated cost
of the employment of Mr. Charles H. Purcell, the employment of whom
had previously been authorized by the Board. The total cost of em-
ploying Madigan-Hyland would be $100,480, whereas the total possible
(271)
272 MONDAY. FEBRUARY 16, 1942
cost of the employment of Mr. Charles H. Purcell for a period of five
years would have been $200,000. The Mayor stated that he was not so
much concerned with the employment of Madigan-Hyland as he was
with "doing the job." Madigan-Hyland had been first called to his
attention, indirectly, by Mr. Purcell, after Mr. Purcell had declined
the employment offered him. The firm had subsequently been recom-
mended by Mayor LaGuardia. of New York, and by others. The Mayor
had consulted with Madigan and Hyland, had investigated them, had
inspected their accomplishments, and believed the firm capable of
doing the work proposed, and he urged the Committee's favorable
recommendation to the Board that he be authorized to negotiate with
them for a contract, as outlined in the motion by the special committee.
Mr. W. W. Chapin, President of the City Planning Commission,
concurred in the Mayor's recommendation. He held that the work for
which the employment of Madigan-Hyland was being proposed would
not conflict with or duplicate the functions of the City Planning Com-
mission or Mr. Goodrich, employed by that Commission for the pre-
paration of a Master Plan for San Francisco. The work to be performed
by Madigan-Hyland would rather complement that of the Commission
and of Mr. Goodrich.
Mr. Lloyd Taylor, representing the Market Street Association; Mr.
Will Merryman of the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce; Mr.
Vining T. Fisher, on behalf of the Down Town Association; Mr. A. Petry,
representing the Haight-Fillmore District; Mr. William J. Trainer,
speaking for the San Francisco Real Estate Board; and Mr. Carroll
Newburgh, President of the Central Council of Civic Clubs, opposed
the proposed employment of Madigan-Hyland.
The Chief Administrative Officer, Honorable Thomas A. Brooks, an-
nounced, in answer to suggestions made that engineers in the present
employ of the City and County were not only able, but willing and
anxious to perform the work proposed to be assigned to Madigan-
Hyland, that while there were most capable engineers in the depart-
ment under his jurisdiction, the Engineering Department could not do
that work without adding to its present force. Since the war, he
continued, it has been found quite difficult to maintain the present]
staff.
Thei-eupon. Supervisor Uhl moved that authorization to negotiate;
contract with Madigan-Hyland be not approved.
Motion carried by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors MacPhee, Uhl, Mead, Gallagher.

ings. Lands and City Planning]
Committee.
Privilege of the Floor
Mr. E. (!. Cahill. Manager of Utilities, addressed the Board at length
urging that his Honor, the Mayor, be authorized to negotiate with:
Madigan-Hyland. looking to the solution of San Francisco's traffic and]
transportation problem.
His Honoi'. Mayor Angolo .1. Rossi, also called the Board's attention!
to the seriousness of the problems confronting San F'rancisco. Those
problems, the Mayor stated, must be solved. He urged the Board not]
to approve the Committee's report. The time has come when the problem;
must be solved. Wlu'tlicr Madigan-Hyland are employed, oi- some one
else, or some of the departments of the City and County government,
it will (;ost money. Under the Charter, the Mayor continued, it is hisj
duty to coordinate and enfoice the various activities of the several de-j
paitmcnts of government. Now if the Board docs not deem it advisable
even to negotiate for the services of Madigan-Hyland. then the Board
MONDAY. FEBRUARY 16. 1942 273
should take some definite action toward some other way out of the
city's difficulties.
Mr. Cahill. again addressing the Board, replied to questioning by
Supervisor Mead, stating that it was not Madigan-Hyland's purpose
to make another survey; rather would they take from the surveys and
plans already made, the important and most necessary features, present
them in the order of their importance, together with plans, estimates
of cost, etc., so that some real progress might be made toward the
solution of San Francisco's traffic and transportation problems.
Mr. Adolph Petrie. of the Haight-Fillmore District, Inc., and Chairman
of the Transportation and Traffic Committee of the Central Council of
Civic Clubs, opposed the hiring of Madigan-Hyland. In these times of
emergency San Francisco must save every dollar possible. Now is no
time to inaugurate any ambitious plans, no matter how desirable they
seem, unless they are absolutely necessary.
Supervisor Colman, in explanation of his vote, stated he had voted
for the employment of Mr. Purcell. because everyone had recommended
him so highly. The situation now needs a thorough clarification and
simplification. The Board of Supervisors had accepted Mr. Goodrich in
good faith. He believed the Board would have accepted Madigan-Hyland
in place of Mr. Goodrich, had that firm's name been presented first. Now
San Francisco does not need any more experts. If an error has been
made in the selection of Mr. Goodrich, that situation must be corrected.
It does not appear good business to go to additional expense of hiring
Madigan-Hyland, however well qualified they might be. Also, Supervisor
Colman continued, while in New York recently he called on Com-
missioner Moses and had learned that Mr. Goodrich was considered,
perhaps more theoretical than practical. Commissioner Moses also spoke
very highly of Madigan-Hyland, but doubted whether San Francisco
would succeed in getting much of their services because of the pressure
of their present business. All these matters. Supervisor Colman be-
lieved, should be cleared up. He would vote against the employment
at the present time.
Mayor Rossi, in reply to objections which had been raised, pointed
out that the men actually to be employed, as well as other details,
would be set forth in the contract with Madigan-Hyland. As to Mr.
Goodrich, he was employed by the City Planning Commission to work
out a master plan for San Francisco. Such a plan, of course, does have,
in some degree, a bearing on the traffic and transportation problem.
However, the Mayor desired the authorization for employment of Madi-
gan-Hyland because that firm was agreeing to do a job within twelve
or eighteen months. However, if the Board thinks the matter should
be taken care of by the City Planning Commission, the Board must
assume the responsibility. In this year's budget for the City Planning
Commission, there is set up $109,502. If the Board of Supervisors thinks
this is an appropriate procedure, the Mayor will approve that budget
when it reaches him.
Supervisor Shannon questioned the Mayor as to the cost of the
services of Madigan-Hyland. and inquiring how the $65,000 fee for that
firm was arrived at.
Whereupon, the Mayor replied that a breakdown of that $65,000 was
embodied more or less in the proposed contract, and in his report to
the Board's committee. However, the Board of Supervisors is not being
asked, at this time, to approve any contract; it is being asked merely
to authorize the negotiation of a contract by the Mayor. The contract,
itself, will first be submitted to the Special Committee and then to the
Board of Supervisors for approval.
Supervisor O'Gara suggested that the Mayor could negotiate for a
contract without authorization by the Board.
Thereupon, the Chair pointed out that there was nothing before the
Board at the moment, but announced that he would entertain a motion
to approve the Committee's report, as printed on the Calendar.
274 MONDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1942
Whereupon, Supervisor Uhl, seconded by Supervisor Brown, moved
that the Committee's report be approved.
Supervisor O'Gara questioned the advisability of voting against the
employment of Madigan-Hyland without having some other plan in
mind. He desired postponement of action on the motion until after
hearing from the Chief Administrative Officer on the subject.
Whereupon, further consideration was temporarily postponed.
Subsequently during the proceedings. Supervisor Uhl announced that
the Chief Administrative Officer had stated that he would require
additional funds and the help of additional experienced men, if the
work proposed to be done by Madigan-Hyland were assigned to his
engineering department. Supervisor Uhl. though, continued to oppose
the employment of Madigan-Hyland, believing it to be a mistake to go
outside of the City's own departments for the performance of the
needed work.
Committee's Report Approved
Whereupon, the roll was called and the motion to approve the Com-
mittee's report, was carried by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead,
Shannon, Uhl— 8.
Noes: Supervisors Meyer, O'Gara, Roncovieri — 3.
Action Rescinded
Supervisor Shannon, following the announcement of the foregoing
roll call, stated that he had not realized just what the motion was on
which he had just voted, and he moved that the vote be rescinded so that
he might make another motion.
In explaining the reasons for his motion. Supervisor Shannon stated
that he feared there might ])e a misunderstanding as to what report
was being approved, since the Mayor's Special Committee had rendered
a report as well as had the Joint Committee of the Board of Supervisors.
He believed the motion just made and acted on was hardly sufficient
to cover the matter just considered. For that reason he desired the
Board's action rescinded so he could make a proper motion.
The Chair announced he believed the motion just acted on was suf-
ficiently clear to cover the matter.
However, Supervisor Gallagher seconded the motion.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the motion to rescind was carried
by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown. Colman. Gallagher. Green, MacPhee, Mead.
O'Gara, Roncovieri, Shannon, Uhl — 10.
No: Supervisor Meyer — 1.
Whereupon, Supervisor Shannon moved approval of the report of the
.Toint Finance and Public Buildings. Lands and City Planning Com-
mittee relative to the employment of Madigan-Hyland for the solution
of San Francisco's traffic and transportation problems, as printed on
page 2 of the Calendar of February 16. 1942. as a special order of
business for 3:00 P. M.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Mead.
Rupervisoi" Roncovieii opposed the motion. "If the Board rejects the
employment of Madigan-Hyland." he questioned, "what will take the
place of that employment? I am protesting against a 'do nothing' policy
which apparently is going to be the policy of the Board. Something
must be done, and should be done. The proi)k'm is here and it will
continue to exist. If you don't want this, all right, but what do you
want?'
Supervisor Uhl repeated his former statement that the Chief Admin-
istrative Officer has capable engineers who could do the job. although
additional funds and men would be re<iuired.
MONDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1942 275
Committee Report Approved
Whereupon, the roll was called and the motion by Supervisor Shannon
was carried by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead,

NEW BUSINESS
Adopted
The following from the Joint Commercial and Industrial Develop-
ment and Legislative and Civil Service Committee, without recom-
mendation, was taken up:
Present: Supervisors Mead, Meyer, O'Gara and Green.
Memorializing War Labor Board to Settle San Francisco Hotel
Strike
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No , as follows:
Resolved, That the War Labor Board be memorialized to exercise its
rightful jurisdiction in the present San Francisco Hotel Strike for the
purpose of immediate settlement thereof.
Discussion
Supervisor Mead, Chairman of the Joint Committee, announced that
although the foregoing Resolution had been presented to the Board
without recommendation, he hoped the Hoard would vote to memorialize
the War Labor Board to take jurisdiction over the controversy. In his
argument. Supervisor Mead reviewed the previous action of the Board,
and stated that apparently there had been a change of mind on the part
of some members of the Boai-d. It was not his intention, he continued,
to instruct the War Labor Board, or even to hint as to who is responsible
for the condition that exists in San Francisco. He merely desired that
the Boaid take action. He did not believe that Labor and Employer are
the only parties to be considered; all San Francisco is involved. The
Board of Supervisoi-s should have enough interest to ask the War Labor
Board to take juiisdiction and try to bring about a just and immediate
settlement.
Supervisor Green announced his intention to vote "No" on the Reso-
lution. He believed Labor had been fair in coming before the Board
with the thought of settling something of interest to everyone in San
Francisco. The employers saw fit not to appear. However, he believed
adoption of the Resolution would be establishing a policy for the
future. He desired to look at the matter in a long range view. It is
a new procedure. There has been some misunderstanding with respect
to the Hoard's intention. For those reasons, and with the additional
thought that the matter will be taken up by the War Labor Hoard
anyway, and that action by the Board might be considered an idle act,
he would vote "No" on the Resolution.
Supervisor O'Gara agreed with a great deal that both Supervisors
Mead and Green had said. He appreciated the courtesy displayed by
Labor's representatives, too. On the other hand, he was disappointed
by the failure of the employeis to send representatives to the meetings
of the Board. The (lueslion bt lore the Board, though, was the memoiial-
izing of the Wai' Labor Hoard, after having heard only one side of the
matter. He was convinced the Board should not so request the War
Labor Board to take jurisdiction. Although he had been one of the
authors of the original Resolution seeking a hearing before the Board
of Supervisors, he did not advocate at that time asking the War Lal)or
Board to hear the controversy. After having heard the arguments
advanced, he had concluded that the Board should not adopt the Reso-
lution before it. The only question really at issue is that of the closed
oi- open shop. On ev«>ry other issue, one side or the other has agreed
to arbitrate. The emiiioyers do not want to submit the issue of open or
closed shop to arbitration. The Unions want the question submitted
MONDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1942 279
to arbitration. If the Board goes on record in this Resolution, asking
that the War Labor Board take jurisdiction in this strike, the Board
will be giving to the Unions wliat they want, and will be taking away
from the employers the one thing they are fighting about. After further
brief argument, he announced his intention, subsequently during the
Proceedings to present legislation providing for the appointment of a
Commission to hear the matter and to render an advisory verdict
thereon. He would also present legislation to provide for the creation
of a Labor Relations Commission, in San Francisco, to have jurisdiction
over controversies arising after the effective date of the ordinance.
On the present Resolution, he must vote "No."
Supervisor MacPhee announced that he did not intend, by his vote,
to favor Union Labor, or the Hotel Employers Association. Too much
consideration, he felt, has already been given to both the labor element
and to the hotel people. Both parties were invited to the Board's
meeting, not for the purpose of hurting anyone, but merely for the
purpose of trying to do something for San Francisco. The people of
San Francisco are sick and tired of seeing pickets in front of the hotels
and stores. The Board must do something about it. The hotel people
had written to the Board saying they have concluded that there is
nothing the Board of Supervisors can do. If that is so, and there is
nothing the Board can do, then the Board should refer the matter,
not for itself, but for the people of San Francisco, to somebody who can
and will do something. The Board should go on record favoring the
Resolution under considej-ation, so that relief can be given to the people
of San Francisco. The Board should ask the War Labor Board to settle
this problem which affects everyone in San Francisco. The Resolution
should be adopted.
Supervisor Uhl was opposed to taking any action on the matter
pending Mr. Eliel's decision. At the present time he would vote against
the Resolution.
Supervisor Mead, in support of the Resolution, called attention to the
language in the Resolution previously presented, and adopted, but the
action of which had subsequently been rescinded. The language in
that Resolution was. he felt, rather strong, so. in lieu of that language,
he had presented a Resolution merely memorializing the War Labor
Board to inject itself into this picture for the purpose of settling a very
nasty condition that has been existing in San Francisco for a long time.
The Board is not advising the War Labor Board; it is merely asking
that Board to use the offices for which it was set up.
Supervisor Colman announced that he would vote "No" on the Reso-
lution for the following reasons: When the Resolution was introduced
it had for its purpose trying to solve the labor problem in San Francisco.
One side of the controversy refused the offer of the Board. They were
within their rights in this refusal. The matter came to a vote and,
for the moment, it was rejected. Then another entirely different question
was presented to the Board of Supervisors, the question of memorial-
izing the War Labor Board to take jurisdiction over the strike. Such
action, if taken, will kill any further chances to bring about a con-
ference between the two groups, because the Board will then have
taken sides in the question. The War Labor Board has not asked any
opinion from the Board of Supervisors, but it has requested the advice
of Mr. Eliel, as to whether or not it should take this controversy
under its jurisdiction, and Mr. Paul Eliel is far better qualified to
advise the War Labor Board than is the Board of Supervisors. No
good could come, from the Board's injecting itself into this question.
Supervisor O'Gara, continued Supervisor Colman, made a very welcome
statement. It was to the effect that he was going to continue to offer
the Board's services to all the people of the city, by setting up some
kind of group or agency that will attempt to settle strikes, or at least,
make it a little bit harder to have strikes. A Board such as he and
his colleagues would set up, would have the force of public opinion
behind it, if not legality. Neither side could well ignore such a body.
280 MONDAY. FEBRUARY 16, 1942
Memorializing the War Labor Board, Supervisor Colman believed,
would lu'lp tile future of this Igislation in the minds of those who would
be asked to coniur in it. For the best interest of the people, the Board
should vote "No" on the Resolution.
Supervisor Mead questioned the contention by Supervisor Colman,
that by voting to adopt the Resolution in (luestion, the Board would
be taking sides in the controversy. The Board, he repeated, would
merely be requesting the War Labor Board to take jurisdiction in a
matter, without in any way advising or even hinting what that Board's
decision should be. The Board of Supervisors would merely be asking
the War Labor Board to e.xercise its jurisdictional light to try to
bring about a settlement.
Supervisor O'Gara, thereupon, stated that the Unions are asking
the War Labor Board to take jurisdiction, while the employers are
opposed to such action. If the Board of Supervisors adopts the proposed
Resolution, it will be voting on the side of Union Labor and in opposition
to the wishes of the employers.
Supervisor MacPhee again announced that his vote should not be
construed as favoring either side over the other side. He was voting
merely to get rid of a strike, one way or anotlier, and as soon as
possible. It is time to stop thinking about Unions and about hotels, and
to think about the people of San Francisco. The Board should refer
the matter to the War Labor Board, and get rid of it.
Privilege of the Floor
Mr. William McCabe, on being granttd the privilege of the floor, on
motion by Supervisor Mead, announced that Labor agrees with Super-
visor MacPhee and wants this strike out of the way. Labor does not
feel that the Supervisors, in adopting this Resolution, will lie placing
itself on record for or against anyone. The Supervisors will be memo-
rializing the only agency which can ever be able to settle the strike.
Labor feels that a vote against the Resolution is a vote to continue
the hotel strike in San Francisco and it cannot be interpreted any
other way. Apparently the hotel employers do not want to settle the
strike, for they refuse now to accept the proposals that they them-,
selves offered previously. Labor, though, is prepared, and able, much
as it does not desire to do so, to continue this strike indefinitely, and
will do so unless there is a fair and equitable settlement worked out.
Labor has not withdrawn its demands, but it is willing to conciliate
and arbitrate. Labor feels it is time to start acting like Americans.
There is no issue that cannot be settled fairly, by arbitration. Labor
urges the Board of Supervisors carefully to consider all phases of the
situation, and to adopt the Resolution presented by Supervisor Mead.
Adopted
Thereupon, the roll was called and the foregoing Resolution was
Adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Callagher, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, Roncovieri,
Shannon — 6.

Providing for the granting of emergency relief to certain persons who
are residents of the City and County of San Francisco, but who do not

tions provided for in Sections 2555 and 2556 of the Welfare and Insti-
tutions Code, being granted emergency relief pursuant to the provisions
of Section 2501 of the Welfare and Institutions Code; and this Board of
Supervisors does hereby declare the nature of said emergency to be as
follows:
That since July 15, 1940, the Community Chest of San Francisco has
cared for certain dependent persons who have been physically present
in the City and County of San Francisco for more than one year and
physically present in the State of California for more than three years
but who do not possess the residential qualifications set forth in Sec-
tions 2555 and 2556 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, and for whom
relief and care has not been provided by Ordinance No. 765, enacted
by the Board of Supervisors on the 15th day of July, 1940, and said
288 MONDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1942
Community Chest has now notified the Board of Supervisors that it
can no longer care for said persons or provide tliem with the necessaries
of life, and that by reason of said Community Chest being unable to
care for said last mentioned persons an emergency not provided for by
said Ordinance No. 765 has now arisen.
Section 2. For the purpose of affording said last mentioned persons
emergency relief pursuant to the provisions of Section 2501 of the Wel-

Discussion
Supervisor MacPhee explained lo the Board that the foregoing Bill
had been approved by the Joint Committee on Finance and Legislation,
subject to the recommendation and appioval by the vaiious depart-
ments or officials affected, in accordance with charter requirements.
After questioning liad established the fact that those required
recommendations and approvals had not yet been obtained. Supervisor
O'Caia requested a week's postponement of consideration of the matter.
Supervisor MacPhee objected. The Committee, because of the urgency
of the matti r. had promised action on the matter. At the present time,
the Conuminity Chest is caring for the non-resident indigents.
Supeivisor 0'(!ara, announced that it was his understanding that the
Controller was to commnnicate with the City Attorney, by letter, point-
ing out his specific objections to the legislation under consideration.
Mr. Ross. Chief Deputy Controller, reported that at a meeting Satur-
day morning, at wliich Mr. McAuliffe, of the Public Welfare Com-
MONDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1942 289
mission, Mr. Dion Holm of the City Attorney's office, and he, representing
the Controller, were pi-esent, the matter was discussed at length, and
there seems to be developed a stalemate. In response to request by
Supervisor O'Gara, Mr. Ross agreed to send a letter to the City Attorney,
and to the Board of Supervisors, setting forth his objections.
Supervisor MacPhee objected to delay, pointing out that there were
certain technical non-i'esidents who were in need. The Community
Chest will furnish money for their care until Thursday, February 9,
1942. After that time the responsibility for their care will be on the
City and County. We have no money. Something, thougli, must be done.
After further explanation of the difficulties in even getting the
matter before the Board, by Mr. Ross, Supervisor O'Gara moved that
a copy of the ordinance be sent to the Controller, to the City Attorney,
to the Public Welfare Commission, and to the Mayor, requesting their
approval or disapproval thereof, and, if disapproving the ordinance,
to send a written statement to the Board, setting forth their reasons
for disapproval, in time for a possible hearing by committee on the
next Thursday, February 19, 1942.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Gallagher.
The Chair informed the Board that the Public Welfare Commission
had reported that it had approved transfer of funds to the Board of
Supervisors for the care of technical non-residents.
Mr. Ross, in reply, announced that there still must be prepared, for
action by the Board, a Resolution authorizing transfer of funds to the
jurisdiction of the Board, but that the passage of such Resolution
would not make the money available to the Community Chest. The
Board could, though, pass an ordinance authorizing and directing the
Department of Public Welfare to do the thing out of funds that have
been heretofore appropriated. Mr. Ross stated, further that the Board
could, by amendment to the Ordinance now providing for care of non-
residents, take care of the present situation. The amendment should
add a provision that non-residents would be cared for until it could
be determined what county was responsible for their care.
Supervisor Brown objected to any change in the present method
of administration of relief, and he did not believe the proposed legisla-
tion should be passed without an investigation being made as to
whether or not these people can qualify for relief in San Francisco.
The Chair, thereupon, stated that the Mayor had read the proposed
ordinance, and was in favor of it; the Mayor states that regardless
of legal technicalities, the people must be taken care of.
Mr. Dion Holm, in discussing the question, announced that the Bill
itself had been drafted by the City Attorney. However, the thing to
ascertain is whether the Controller is going to take the view that the
Board of Supervisors has no right to make an appropriation to be
paid to the Community Chest. In such case, the legislation will have
to be drafted along different lines. The City Attorney has absolute
faith in the legality of the ordinance. However it is up to the different
parties to get together and to make up their minds just what they
want to do.
Supervisor MacPhee, thereupon, pointed out that the Committee had
expressed its views when it voted for the ordinance. Now the City
Attorney's office and the Controller's office should get together on the
matter.
Supervisor Uhl pointed out that legislation had been passed pro-
viding for a sixty-day period to grant relief to non-residents, together
with an additional thirty days, in case of necessity. Why could not
the Board amend that ordinance, he questioned, to make a four or
five month period so people can be taken care of by the Public Welfare
Commission until some satisfactory solution to the problem is found?
Supervisor Brown, however, subsequently during the discussion,
expressed agreement with suggestion by Mr. Ross for amendment to
290 MONDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1942
Ordinance No. 2r)01 to autlioiize the grantins of relief to non-residents
until it would be determined what county was responsible for their
care, or until the emergency which compelled them to seek assistance,
no longer existed. Unless the emergency is too great, though Super-
visor Brown continued, he believed the matter should be referred
to the Public Welfare Commission for its opinion.
Supervisor O'Gara, in commenting on Supervisor Brown's state-
ment, and Mr. Ross" suggestion, announced that the Public Welfare
Commission wanted no part of the matter, at all. They feel that it is
illegal. They don't want to administer the money; they don't want
the amendment as suggested. Whereupon, he moved, seconded by
Supervisor Colman, that the Board request the Controller to present
to the Joint Finance and Legislative Committee, at its next meeting,
draft of an ordinance under the terms of which he will pay money for
emergency relief to technical non-residents; at the same time have an
opinion from the City Attorney as to the legality of such payments;
at the same time have a statement from the Public Welfare Commission
as to whether or not they will be satisfied with said proposed ordi-
nance; also, refer the entire matter back to Joint Committee of Finance
and Legislation.
Supervisor Mead objected to re-reference to Committee. He had no
assurance that the Community Chest would carry on. However, if
he had that assurance, he would vote for the motion.
Whereupon, the roll was called and the motion carried by the
following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Meyer,
O'Gara, Roncovieri, Shannon, Uhl— 10.
No: Supervisor Mead — 1.
Thereupon, Supervisor MacPhee moved that the Public Welfare
Commission and each member thereof, be informed of the entire dis-
cussion had by the Board in the matter of emergency relief to technical
non-residents and of the Board's efforts to help these people, and that
the Board beg said Commission to cooperate and attend the meeting
of the Joint Finance and Legislative Committee, Thursday, February
19, 1942, at 3:00 P. M.
No objection, and so ordered.
The following from the Finance Committee without recommendation
was taken up:
Present: Supervisors MacPhee, Mead, Uhl.
Exempting from Residential Requirements of the Charter, Curator
of the Monastery
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No , as follows:
Resolved, That pursuant to the provisions of Section 7 of the Charter,
and on the recommendation of the Director of the M. H. De Young Me-
morial Museum and the Mayor, and with the approval of the Civil Serv-
ice Commission, the i)osition of Curator of the Monastery is hereby ex-
empted from the residential requirements of the Charter as set forth in
Section 7 thereof.
January 12, 1942 — Re-referred to Finance Committee.
February 2. 1942 — Re-referred to Finance Committee.
Supervisor MacPhee, Chairman of the Finance Committee, stated
that he had voted against the foregoing requested exemption on several
occasions, but he would vote for it now, on the basis of additional
inforniation received.
Supervisor Uhl pointid out thai there was no longer any (luestion
of an employment for the monastery, since the proposal to construct
the monastery has been definitely abandoned during the present war-
MONDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1942 291
time emergency. However, the employment is needed, and the fore-
going Resolution should be amended to correspond with the views
of the Director of the Museum.
Supervisor Mead agreed that the man was greatly needed, but he
was opposed to bringing someone in from other parts of the country
to fill positions in San Francisco. He would vote against the requested
residential exemption.
Privilege of the Floor
Dr. Heil, being granted the privilege of the floor, explained to the
Board his need for the requested employment, not, however, for the
monastery, but for the museum.

a Stay of Execution of the Court Decision to Cancel the City's
Agreement with the Pacific Gas and Electric Company for the
Resale of Electric Power Generated on the City's Ketch Hetchy
Project.
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, The President of the United States and Congress have de-
clared that a state of war exists between our country and Japan, Ger-
many and Italy; and
Whereas, "All-out" production of the materials of war is essential
for our successful conclusion of this war, and the generation of electric
power is a vital factor in such production; and
Whereas. The City and County of San Francisco, through the facili-
ties of its Hetch Hetchy Project, is now generating a part of the electric
power required for such purposes in the City and County; and
Whereas, The Supreme Court of the United States has decided that
292 MONDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1942
the sale or distribution for resale of the electric power generated on the
City's Hetch Hetchy Project through the agency of the Pacific Gas and
Electric Company is in violation of the provisions of Section 6 of the
Raker A?t; and
Whereas, The United States District Court has granted a stay of exe-
cution of said Court decision until July 1, 1942; and
Whereas, The enforcing of this Supreme Court decision during the
duration of the war will impose great hardships on the people of the
City and County of San Francisco by curtailing the revenue derived
from the sale of this electric power and consequently will increase their
tax burden at a time when they are hard pressed to provide money for
the many projects required for the defense of their country during this
war period; and
Whereas, Congress will be continuously engaged with emergency war
legislation and the innumerable problems of war and will undoubtedly
hnd it difficult to devote sufficient time to hearing and acting on the
pleas of our citizens to amend the Raker Act; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors of the City and County of
San Francisco does hereby appeal to the Secretary of the Interior, Hon-
orable Harold L. Ickes, to petition the United States District Court to
grant, for the duration of this war, a stay of execution of the Court de-
cision canceling the City's agreement with the Pacific Gas and Electric

Hetch Hetchy Project; and be it
Further Resolved, That this Board of Supervisors in adopting this
resolution hereby declares that it does so only in the interest of national
unity for the successful prosecution of the war, and to permit our Con-
gress and our City officials to devote their entire time and effort to this
accomplishment; and be it
Further Resolved, That Honorable Angelo J. Rossi, Mayor of the City
and County of San Francisco, is requested to transmit this resolution
to the Secretary of the Interior, Honorable Harold L. Ickes, for his
consideration.

Whereas. The Secretary of the Interior, Honorable Harold L. Ickes,
has advised the City and County that the War Production Board has
the authority to designate a defense industry to purchase and utilize
for production purposes the electric power generated on the City's
Hetch Hetchy Project; and
Whereas, The City and County is desirous of assisting in the national
defense program by supplying such electric power to a defense in-
dustry; and
Whereas, The time consumed in building and equipping a defense
industry and making ready for the utilization of electric power may
extend beyond July 1, 1942, the expiration date of the stay of execution

(Series of 1939)

Resolved, That the recommendation of the Public Welfare Depart-
ment, containing the name and amount to be paid as Aid to Needy Chil-
dren for the month of December, 1941, is hereby approved, and the
Clerk of the Board of Supervisors is directed to transmit this approval
to the Controller.
Discussion
During the consideration of the foregoing Resolution, Supervisor
Uhl noted a recommendation of the Public Welfare Commission with
respect to Aid to Needy Children, wherein appeared the name of Sono
Okada. Mrs. Okada, stated Supervisor Uhl. is an alien Japanese widow,
and Supervisor Uhl questioned the right or the propriety of extending
such aid to her, since she is an alien. Mrs. Okada is already receiving
some $101 for aid to her children.
Mrs. Eugene Prince, member of the Public Welfare Commission, who
was present in the Chambers on another matter, after examining the
record pointed out that the amount referred to by Supervisor Uhl was
a refund to the city, and not a payment to Mrs. Okada.
Whereupon, no further discussion being desired, the roll was called
and the foregoing Resolution was
Adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara,

(Series of 1939)
Bill No. 1587, Ordinance No , as follows:
Providing for the granting of emergency relief to certain persons
TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1942 311
who are residents of the City and County of San Francisco but who
do not possess the residential qualifications required by Sections 2555
and 2556 of the Welfare and Institutions Code; an Emergency Ordi-
nance:
Be it ordained by the people of the City and County of San Francisco
as follows:
Section 1. Notwithstanding the provisions of Ordinance No. 121,
adopted April 17, 1939, the Board of Supervisors of the City and County
of San Francisco does hereby declare that an emergency exists which
necessitates certain dependent persons who, for more than one year last
past, have been physically present in the City and County of San Fran-
cisco and for more than three years last past have been physically
present in the State of California, but who have not the residential
qualifications provided for in Sections 2555 and 2556 of the Welfare and
Institutions Code, being granted emergency relief pursuant to the pro-
visions of Section 2501 of the Welfare and Institutions Code; and this
Board of Supervisors does hereby declare the nature of said emergency
to be as follows:
That since July 15, 1940, the Community Chest of San Francisco has
cared for certain dependent persons who have been physically present
in the City and County of San Francisco for more than one year and
physically present in the State of California for more than three years,
but who do not possess the residential qualifications set forth in Sec-
tions 2555 and 2556 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, and for whom
relief and care has not been provided by Ordinance No. 121, enacted
by the Board of Supervisors on the 17th day of April, 1939, and said
Community Chest has now notified the Board of Supervisors that it can
no longer care for said persons or provide them with the necessaries
of life, and that by I'eason of said Community Chest being unable to
care for said last mentioned persons an emergency not provided for by
said Ordinance No. 121 has now arisen, which said emergency this
Board of Supervisors estimates will continue until July 1st, 1942.
Section 2. For the purpose of affording said last mentioned persons
emergency relief, pursuant to the provisions of Section 2501 of the
Welfare and Institutions Code, the Public Welfare Commission is hereby
authorized and directed to contract with the Community Chest of San
Francisco, or with any other charitable organization, to distribute said
relief to said dependent persons, provided that the amount of said relief
to be distributed shall not exceed $12,500.00, and the period during
which said relief shall be granted shall not extend beyond July 1st,
1942.
Section 3. Relief to be distributed under this ordinance shall be ap-
plied only to those persons who were receiving aid from the Community
Chest on February 1, 1942, as dependent non-residents as defined in
Section 1 hereof.
Section 4. This ordinance is passed as an emergency measure and
the Board of Supervisors does, by the vote by which this ordinance is
passed, declare that an actual emergency exists which necessitates this
ordinance becoming effective forthwith, the nature of said emergency
being as follows:
It is necessary for the preservation of the health and safety of the
citizens of the City and County of San Francisco.
Approved as to form by the City Attorney.
Discussion
Supervisor O'Gara explained to the Board the consideration given
to the problem of furnishing relief to technical non-residents of San
Francisco. After much deliberation, and several meetings on the matter,
the foregoing Bill, agreeable to the Controller and the Public Welfare
Depaitment. was recommended by the Joint Committee on Finance and
Legislation. Under the terms of the proposed legislation, technical
non-residents will be cared for until the end of the current fiscal year.
312 TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1942
The Community Chest will aid in the administering of relief until
June 30, 1942.
Supervisor Roncovieri, in discussing the matter, suggesting that
in elTect, what was being done was practically giving the Community
Chest $12, .500 to relieve it of obligations that belong to the Chest. How-
ever, he was willing to take over the matter as an emergency, ))ut he
desired to know when the emergency would stop.
Supervisor O'Gara, in reply, stated that it was his personal opinion
that the emergency would continue as long as the needy, technical
non-residents were in San Francisco, unless the State law defining or
setting up requirements for the gaining of residence is changed. As
to taking care of these non-residents, the Board is not required to make
any provision for them, but it is the proper and decent thing to do.
Supervisor Brown stated that he felt it was the time to put the entire
subject of relief squarely before the Board, which he proposed to do,
although with reluctance. Relief is now costing San Francisco $8,000,000
a year, and San Francisco cannot afford to increase beyond reasonable
bounds, the generosity with which it is now conducting its relief pro-
gram. This present responsibility was assumed by the Community Chest
in good faith. San Francisco also assumed and took over all who were
at that time technical non-residents. Now that the Community Chest
decides it can no lon,ger care for these people. Supervisor Brown de-
sired to know just what the funds of the Community Chest are being
spent for, and how important are the objects of expenditure as com-
pared to supporting people without other means for livelihood. Why
did the Community Chest pass along this burden to the Board of Super-
visois when they had agreed to assume the burden? How can the Com-
munity Chest say that any other purpose is more important than feeding
the people. This legislation will establish a very dangerous precedent.
If we proceed with the granting of relief to non-residents, many other
non-i-esidents will come to San Francisco. Emergency cases, of course,
should be taken care of, but the emergency cannot last indefinitely.
Mr. Carver, of the Community Chest, denied that the Community
Chest had ever contracted to take care of the cases of non-residents.
Those cases were taken care of l)y the City and County until a restrictive
ordinance w^as passed. For some time though, the Community Chest
has been taking care of non-residents, although it has never contracted
so to do. In that work, the Chest has been using its capital funds in-
stead of its i-egular funds. However, in no campaign for funds has the
care of non-residents been used as an argument in the various drives.
Supervisor O'Gara stated that he understood that the matter had been
woiked out to the satisfaction of everyone, and everyone was agreed
that the proposed legislation should be passed. However, that is, ap-
parently not the case. Supervisor Brown is entitled to complete answers
to questions he has raised, and if he, at this time, is opposed to this
mattei-, it cannot be passed. For that reason he would move that further
consideration l)e postponed for one week, and that Directors, or rep-
resentatives of the Cominunity Chest be present at that time, as well
as Mrs. Prince or Mr. McAuliffe, of the Public Welfare Commission,
to state their views on the matter.
Mrs. Prince, however, announced that the Public Welfare Commission
had approved, at its last meeting, this specitic ordinance.
Mr. Carver, of the Community Chest, in reply to questioning, stated
that he had no authority to speak for the DircMtors. The Chest had
agreed to take care of the non-residents until today. Fel)iuary 24th.
Whether or not the Chist would care for them longer, he could not say,
although his personal recommendation to the Directors would be that
they do not take care of the non-residents any longer.
Supervisor Hiowii. thereupon, announced that inasmuch as the Public
Welfare Conunission had ai)prove(i this ordinance, he could see no good
to be gained by further opposition at this time, but be would reserve
TUESDAY. FEBRUARY 24, 1942 313
the right to oppose the continued granting of relief to these people
after the beginning of the next fiscal year.
Whereupon. Supervisor O'Gara withdrew his motion for postpone-
ment and the foregoing Bill was

(Series of 1939)
Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, The Public Lands Committee of the House of Representa-
tives has refused to recommend passage of the Rolph Bill to amend
the Raker Act; and
Whereas, The Secretary of the Interior has suggested that San Fran-
cisco request the Federal Government to establish essential war indus-
tries in Northern California at locations adjacent to the Hetch Hetchy
power line, so that these war industries could utilize the output of the
Moccasin Creek power house and enable San Francisco to enjoy a
proper revenue from its municipally owner power project, and at the
same time comply with the provisions of the Raker Act; and
Whereas, It is extremely important that immediate steps be taken
by the government of San Francisco to explore the possibilities of such
an arrangement so that San Francisco may not be deprived of its in-
come from Hetch Hetchy power; and
Whereas, The President of the United States has publicly stated in a
314 TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 24. 1942
letter to the Chairman of House Public Lands Committee that he be-
lieved a satisfactory plan for the disposition of Hetch Hetchy power
could be worked out without amending the Raker Act; now, therefore,
be it
Resolved, That his Honor, the Mayor, is hereby requested to appoint
a committee to confer with officials of the Federal Government and
report to this Board of Supervisors at the earliest possible time what
arrangements can be made for the sale of the power to such war indus-
tries.

Memorializing Congress to Fix Premium Rates of War Risk In-
surance so that Insured Persons in all Parts of the United States
Shall Share Equally the Burden of Such Insurance.
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor O'Gara presented Resolution No. 2456, as follows:
Whereas. There is now^ pending before the Congress of the United
States a War Risk Insurance Bill; and
Whereas, It has been proposed that the premium for such War Risk
Insurance should be based on the proximity of the Insured property
to the combat zones; and
Whereas, The United States is waging this war for the defense of all
parts of the United States and all parts of the United States should
bear equally the burden and expenses incidental to said war; and
Whereas, Such rate basis would work a great hardship on San Fran-
cisco, by reason of its location on the Pacific Coast and its position in
a combat zone; and
Whereas, The value of properties in San Francisco insured against
fire is approximately one billion dollars, in addition to property of the
City and County of San Francisco, valued at millions of dollars, and
the fire insurance premiums paid by San Franciscans are in excess of
$4,000,000 a year; and
Whereas, A rate based on proximity to war hazards and combat zones
would result in a discriminatory penalty on the people, business and
City and County of San Francisco, possibly in excess of $1,000,000 a year;
now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the City and County of San Francisco protests to the
Congress of the United States against any such inequitable basis of
fixing the premium rates of war risk insurance and requests said Con-
gress to fix such rates in such a manner that insured persons in all
parts of the United States, regardless of proximity to war hazards and
combat zones, shall share equally the burden of such insurance; and,
be it
Further Resolved. That a copy of this Resolution be sent to the
Senate and House of Representatives of the United States and to all
California representatives in Congress.
Adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Supeivisors Brown, Gallagher. Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer,

Discussion
After explanation of the foregoing matter by Supervisor MacPhee,
Supervisor Roncovieri announced that he still desired more time to
look into the matter further, and moved that further consideration
be postponed for two weeks.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Mead.
Supervisor MacPhee objected to any further delay, which, he felt
could serve no good purpose, and he reminded the Board, also, that
should the matter be taken out of the hands of the Board by the
Court, within that two weeks, the Board would lose all jurisdiction.
Supervisor Uhl announced that he would vote for a week's post-
ponement, if Supervisor Roncovieri would change his motion. He
could not vote for a longer delay.
Supervisor Roncovieri, however, declined to change his motion. He
desired to look into many features of the proposal.

the motion to postpone consideration for two weeks was

Supervisor Uhl objected to the immediate consideration of the fore-
going Bill. Last week he had requested certain information from the
Housing Authority regarding the number of units in each project; the
number of units rented; and the number of units in contemplated
projects. He believed the Board should have that information before
acting on the matter now under consideration, and for that reason he
would suggest a week's delay before taking action.
Supervisor MacPhee opposed any delay. He believed the property
should be sold.
Although the Chair reminded Supervisor Uhl that he would have two
weeks' time before Final Passage of the foregoing Bill, in which to
obtain the information he desired, Supervisor Uhl announced that he
would vote "No" on Passage for Second Reading.

Report of the Meeting of the PubHc Health
and Welfare Committee
Friday, February 27, 1942.
Present: Supervisor Roncovieri, Judge Foley, Percy Long, R. Miller,
Thomas Brooke, Chief Administrative Officer, Harry Ross, Assistant
Controller, Frank A. Clarvoe of the San Francisco News.
Mr. Percy Long, Chairman of the Probationary Committee:
He told about the background of the Log Cabin Ranch. He told how
the Boys' Ranch started in 1939. In 1940 it was necessary for them to
move. They found their present location and decided that it was ideal
for theii' purpose. They asked the Board of Supervisors to lease 620
acres and the P)0ard passed the pi'oposed legislation. Moved the boys
down to the place at La Honda but it was necessary each day for the
boys to go six miles from the buildings they wei'e using, these buildings
were abandoned l)y the S. R. A. when they discontinued their own
school in San Mateo County, to their own location. At first the Juvenile
MONDAY, MARCH 2, 1942 337
Court thousht that all of the work of turning the 620 acres into a per-
manent living- quarters for the boys could be done on $5,000, so that
was the amount that was included in the budget for the Log Cabin
Ranch, but when the Department of Public Works was called into the
picture they said that it would be impossible to do what was planned
for $5,000. The first thing that was done was to have a topographical
map made by the City Architect for $1,000. after which the City
Architect made some plans for the future development of the Log
Cabin Ranch which when completed will cost in the neighborhood of
from $70,000 to $80,000.
Honorable Thomas M. Foley:
When the program was planned for the Log Cabin Ranch, that is
the building of the buildings and whatever else was necessary, it was
thought that the boys, under the supervision of one of two competent
journeymen, could do it all. When the Department of Public Works
stepped in they told us that we would have to put in a first class water
system and sewerage disposal system at the cost of about $20,000.
The way we had planned it was to have our own boys put in our own
water system and sewerage disposal system such as any farmer would
do. Of course the systems that we installed would not be as efficient
as the ones that the Department of Public Works is going to install.
At the present time we are going to move the buildings that the boys
are now sleeping in from their present location to the Log Cabin Ranch.
These buildings are easily dismantled and hauled the six miles then
reconstructed. They are going to be temporary buildings until we
can get around to building permanent buildings. When the permanent
buildings are completed we will tear the temporary ones down. The
only thing that is now holding up the work is the Planning Commission
of the County of San Mateo.
Mr. Wilder, Director of Public Works:
The only way that the Department of Public Works was called into
the picture was at the request of the Controller's office. They asked
us to make a survey to be certain that the work could be completed
for $5,000, which of course it could not. The first step was to have a
topographical map made so that we knew to what end we were working.
The cost of this map was $1,000 and it was well worth it. Without the
map you would have no outline to follow when you started building
your permanent buildings and you might find yourself in the situation
that your permanent buildings would run into your temporary build-
ings then making it necessary to tear the temporary buildings down
before the permanent buildings were completed. As to the water and
sewerage systems, you have to have a first class water and sewerage
system to insure the safety of the health of the boys. If, in your opinion,
you would rather install a makeshift water and sewerage disposal
system that is up to you: l)ut let me tell you this you have to be
certain that the water system is not going to be contaminated by the
sewerage system. The $5,000 that had been appropriated would not
have even installed the water and sewerage systems but would only
have completed the road up to your property.
Mr. Brooks, Chief Administrative Officer:
He stated that he would ask the Department of Public Works to
withdraw from the picture if the Juvenile Court so desired. He stated
that in his opinion everything that the City Architect says to do should
be done because this thing is not a small, or is it going to be. a tem-
porary project, as the years go on it is going to get bigger and bigger
thus we must make plans for it.
Mr. Ross, Chief Assistant Controller:
He stated that most of this mix-up was his fault. He called the
Department of Public Works in to find out whether or not the work
could be done on the $5,000. He was told that it could not so he asked
the Juvenile Court how much more it would take to actually complete
the whole job. The amount they figured was $25,000. After the money
338 MONDAY, MARCH 2, 1942
had been appropriated he found out that it would not complete the
job so he decided not to allow any part of the job to go ahead unless
there was money enough to cover it. On account of this the work had
proceeded very slowly but now everything was O. K. and the money
would no longer be held up but the work would be allowed to continue.
Mr. Clarvoe, Editor of the San Francisco News:
He said that the only thing he was sorry about was that this meeting
was not held nine mouths ago when the Ranch was first starting
instead of wasting all that time that could have been put to helping
the Boys' Ranch get on its feet; but in his opinion the Ranch was
finally getting a foothold and everything would work out fine.

should be encountered.

ice it now renders the citizens of this community, can no longer bear
up under the constant strain made upon its totally inadequate per-
sonnel; and
Whereas, San Francisco, occupying the unique and strategic position
it does, must of necessity be guarded by unceasing vigilance by all

San Franciscans and would relieve the military from arduous but never-
theless necessary duties now executed by it; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That his Excellency, Culbert L. Olson, Governor of Califor-
nia, as Commander in Chief of the State Guard, be and he is hereby
respectfully and earnestly requested to augment the State Guard of
California by two regiments, to be recruited in San Francisco, and

be it
Further Resolved, That it be the sense of this Board of Supervisors
that, should his Excellency, the Governor, accede to this request, it
by this means go on record as committing itself to the policy that all
possible local agencies be used to recruit such a body of men from the
ranks of local San Franciscans; and be it

(Series of 1939)
Resolution No , as follows:
Providing for forfeiture of operating permit and rights, franchises,
privileges and permits of the Market Street Railway Company for
failure to keep pavements in the vicinity of its street railway tracks
in good condition and repair.
Whereas, over a long period of years the Market Street Railway
Company, a corporation organized and existing under and by virtue
of the laws of the State of California, through its predecessors in in-
terest and otherwise, acquired certain rights, franchises, privileges
and permits to operate a street railway system on the streets of the
City and County of San Francisco; and
Whereas, Said Market Street Railway Company is obligated there-
under to keep in good order and repair the pavement between its rails
and the pavement adjoining said street railway tracks for a distance
of two feet beyond the outer rails thereof; and
Whereas, Said Market Street Railway Company has been, and is now
operating under an operating permit dated February 9, 1931. duly
granted under the provisions of Section 6a and 6b of Chapter II. Ar-
ticle II of the Charter of the City and County of San Francisco, its
street railway system, which said operating permit is based upon the
compliance by said Market Street Railway Company with all the terms
and conditions contained in the rights, franchises, privileges and per-
mits heretofore granted; and
Whereas, For several years past said Market Street Railway Com-
pany has neglected and failed to keep said portions of said pavement

which it operates its street railway system in good condition and re-
pair; and
Whereas, Said portions of said pavements are broken, dilapidated
and in a general condition of disrepair;
Now, Therefore, Be It Resolved, That the City Attorney of the City

with take whatever legal action may be necessary to cause an imme-
diate forfeiture of said operating permit and the rights, franchises,
privileges and permits heretofore acquired by said Mai-ket Street Rail-
way Company.
(NOTE: The above resolution appears on Calendar at request of Super-
visor MacPhee, and with concurrence of Supervisor Brov^n, Chair-
man of the Joint Committee.)
Minority Report
Presented by Supervisors MacPhee and Mead:
In support of the resolution calling for the termination of the Market
Street Railway's franchise, we submit excerpts from the letter of
the Chief Administrative Officer dated January 29, 1942, and addressed
to the Board of Supervisors:
". . . . There are many ruts and other defects in the streets of
the City primarily because of the failure of the Market Street
Railway to keep pavement in repair between and two feet
outside its street car rails. To keep its track areas in repair
is an obligation of the railway under its franchise. . . ."
". . . The Board of Supervisors can help in the future by being
more strict with legard to the Market Street Railway's paving
obligation. The difficulty in which the city now is situated
with regard to that company's track areas has resulted in no
inconsiderable part from unwillingness on the part of the Board
to require the company to fulfill its obligations prior to being
given valuable privileges. . . ."
At the outset we draw attention to the criticism leveled against the
Board of Supervisors as a result of favored privUeges granted the
Market Street Railway by the Board of Supervisors of San Francisco
in the past.
When the 25-year operating permit of the Market Street Railway
was ordered submitted to the people on September 19, 1930, two members
of the present Board of Supervist>rs, namely Supervisors Colman and
Roncovieri, voted approval of this franchise. There is no question
these two Supervisors, in voting approval of this franchise did so
in the belief that the Market Street Railway would live up to all of
the terms and conditions of the said franchise.
The people of San Francisco approved this franchise at the polls,
honestly assuming that the Board of Supervisors would protect their
Interests at all times and make the contract binding on BOTH parties.
The matter of terminating the franchise of the Market Street Rail-
way is a plain, simple everyday business matter. Either the Market
Street Railway has or has not violated their contract.
Promises for the future are NOT at issue at the present time. If
there is proof before this Board that the contract has been violated,
the Board of Supervisors SHOULD terminate this franchise.
The contract between the City and County of San Francisco and the
Market Street Railway and ANY contract between the City and County
of San Francisco and any other firm must be fulfilled, or any such
contract SHOULD be terminated.
You have heard from the Director of Public Works, the Department
of Engineering and the Chief Administrative Officer, ALL of whom
have told you without equivocation, that the Market Street Railway
HAS violated the terms of the franchise in that the Market Street Rail-
way has not, for a long time past, kept in good order and repair the
pavement adjoining said street railway tracks for a distance of two
feet beyond the outer rails thereof.
The Board of Supervisors has a very serious duty to perform. By
our actions here, today, we set a precedent for future actions of our
Board. If we do not ENFORCE the terms of our contract with the
344 MONDAY, MARCH 2, 1942
Market Street Railway, any other contracts or franchises with other
firms are subject to the same favored privileges.
The minority group submits that it is of no value to the taxpayers
to make a contract, unless ALL of the terms and conditions of the
contract are fulfilled.
Your sworn obligation as a Supervisor makes necessary the TERMI-
NATION of any contract that has not been fulfilled.
As a smokescreen, the opposition to the termination of this contract
would have you believe a possible curtailment of service would exist.
The Vice-President of the Market Street Railway, appearing at our
committee hearing, stated his company would have the matter in
court for several years to test the legality of our action. Again we
submit these are not the issues before us. The Market Street Railway
is responsible for the street repair adjacent to its tracks and it is
the Market Street Railway who is responsible for the termination of
this franchise.
Unification of the two railway systems; $.06 fares or $.07 fares,
other plans or recommendations are not the issues at this time and
should not be allowed to cloud the matter of our duty. Only one matter
is pertinent: either the Market Street Railway has or has not defaulted
in its contract.
This Board has only one choice: the contract has been violated and
must be terminated.
We therefore ask the Board to override the recommendation of the
Committee and adopt the Resolution calling for the City Attorney to
take whatever legal action as may be necessary to cause an immediate
forfeiture of the operating permit of the Market Street Railway.

Privilege of the Floor
Following the presentation of the foi'egoing Minority Report, Super-
"/isor Uhl announced that he understood that the Chief Administrative
Officer had been negotiating with tlie Market Street Railway Company
for the removal of some 40 miles of their track, which would, of course,
mean the subsequent reconditioning of the pavement. Thereupon, he
moved the privilege of the floor for Mr. L. V. Newton, Vice-President
of the Market Street Railway Company, to explain what was being
contemplated.
Supervisor O'Gara, however, did not object to hearing from Mr.
Newton, but requested temporary postponement of further consideration
until the Chief Administrative Officer could be present.
Subsequently during the meeting, the Chief Administrative Officer
being present, Mr. Newton was granted the pi'ivilege of the floor.
Mr. Newton reported what his company had done, in street improve-
ment, and disputed claims made that the terms of the operating permit
were being violated. On the contrary, he held that all terms of the
permit were being substantially complied with.
Following brief discussion by Supervisors O'Gara and MacPhee, Mr.
Newton leiterated his contention that his company had lived up to the
terms of the operating permits.
The Chief Administrative Officei' and Mr. Stable, from the City
Engineei-s Office, disagreed with the contentions of Mr. Newton that
the Market Street Railway Company had complied substantially with
the terms of the operatilig permit.
The Chief Administrative Officer, in reply to questioning by Super-
visors O'Gara and Uhl, stated that an agreement has been drawn up,
under the terms of which considerable of the unused track of the
Market Street Railway Company, as previously mentioned, was to be
removed, and the streets reconditioned.
MONDAY, MARCH 2, 1942 345
Supervisor MacPhee objected to any such agreement, stating that
thereunder, by a payment ot some $90,000 toward street improvement,
the Company would be relieved of more than a million dollars' of its
obligations.
Supervisor Green warned the Board against too hasty action in
terminating the franchises of the Market Street Railway Company. He
announced his intention, under his name on Roll Call, to present a
Resolution calling for consideration of a six cent fare on both street
railway systems, together with a universal transfer.
Explanations of Votes
Supervisor Colman. in explanation of his intended vote, announced
that he was opposed to the though t of termination of the Market Street
Railway Company's franchises. He believed it would be a most ill-
advised action to take at this time, and it would not solve San Fran-
cisco's problems in any way. San Francisco is not in a position to
take over the company's properties and functions, nor is San Francisco
in any position to become engaged in a long expensive law suit which
would inevitably follow such action as proposed by Supervisor MacPhee.
Although it is apparent that the company has not lived up to all the
terms of its permit, with respect to street repair, it has not had the
money so to do. However, progress has been made along the lines
of street repair. Therefore, in view of the circumstances and in view
of the fact that San Francisco will need all its energies for much more
vital matters, he did not think it advisable to start legal proceedings
for the forfeiture of the permits of the Market Street Railway Company,
and he would vote against any such proposal.
Supervisor Meyer announced that he could not see where taking
away the franchises would result in any street improvement. There
must be another solution to the problem, and accordingly he would
vote "No."
Supervisor Roncovieri stated that in view of the contemplated street
improvement program that is being worked out by the Chief Adminis-
trative Othcer and the Market Street Railway Company, he would vote
"No."
Supervisor Uhl asserted that the Market Street Railway Company,
by its purchase and operation of some 110 buses, had performed out-
standing work in the improvement of San Francisco's traffic and trans-
portation problem. He would vote "No."
Supervisor Brown expressed the belief that the contract with the
Market Street Railway Company, or the operating permit, like any
other contract, might be interpreted in different ways. He stated too,
that in his opinion, the company had done about as well as it possibly
could, with the funds available. He, too. would vote "No."
Supervisor MacPhee pointed out that, in his opinion, there was an
amount of more than $1,000,000 involved, for which a settlement of
only $93,500 is proposed. Would the Board be satisfied with a ten per
cent settlement? He. Supervisor MacPhee, believed it would be estab-
lishing a very dangerous precedent to allow such a concession to the
Market Street Railway Company.
Minority Report Disapproved
Thereupon the roll was called and the minority report, presented by
Supervisor MacPhee, was disapproved by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors MacPhee, Mead, O'Gara — 3.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, Meyer, Ronco-
vieri, Shannon, Uhl — 8.

Public Utilities Committee to Consider Proposals for Universal
Transfers and Six-Cent Fare on Street Cars in San Francisco
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor Green presented Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, Under the present rates of fare for the two electric street
railway systems in San Francisco the Market Street Railway Company
and the Municipal Railway each carry approximately fifty (50) per-
cent of the public riding on the electric railways; and
Whereas, With the Market Street Railway Company operating on a
seven (7) cent fare and the Municipal Railway operating on a five
(5) cent fare, the result is Uiat approximately one-half of the street
car riding public is penalized by being required to pay two cents more
per ride than is the other half of the street car riding public; and
Whereas, It is asserted that the Municipal Railway operating on a
five cent fare is solvent only by reason of the fact that its business has
greatly increased since the advent of the seven (7) cent fare on the
Market Street lines; and
Whereas, It is an unfair and anomalous situation which finds two
electric street car systems operating in one city, each serving approxi-
mately one-half of the riding public and one charging two cents more
per ride than does the other; and
Whereas, It is highly improbal)le that the City and County of San
Francisco will be in a position in the near future to acquire the operat-
ing properties of the Market Street Railway Company or that if such
acquisition were consummated the Municipal Railway could operate
both properties and render adequate service except through a consider-
able subsidy from the tax rate; and
Whereas, For all practical purposes and in an endeavor to correct a
most inequitable condition it is prudent to recognize that the Market
Street Railway's oi)erating properties cannot be acquired by the City
for many years to come and to endeavor now to equalize the rates of
fare charged the electric street railway car riding public; now, there-
fore, be it
Resolved, That the Public Utilities Committee of this Board be and
is hereby directed to hold bearings upon this matter; to summon all
interested partits to present tlieir views on the matter and to endeavor
to effectuate a plan under which the patrons of the Market Street Rail-
way and the Municipal Railway shall pay a six cent fare with transfer
privileges to or upon either line ; and be it
Further Resolved, That the Public Utilities Committee be and is
MONDAY, MARCH 2, 1942 349
hereby directed to repoi't its findings to tliis Board as soon as a con-
clusion upon tlie matter can be readied.
Referred to Piihlk Vtilities Coiiniiittee.
Requesting City Attorney to Prepare Legislation for Calling of a
Special Election to Choose Board of Freeholders to Draft a New
Charter for the City and County of San Francisco.
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor Green presented Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, The Charter of the City and County of San Francisco, which
became effective January 8, 1932, has since that date been amended 41
times at 10 separate elections; and
AVhereas, Constant changes and variations in legal and practical
modes of procedure have caused some of the provisions of our present
Charter to fall into desuetude and have developed in certain other pro-
vision.s vexing and serious conflicts; and
Whtreas, One of the most harassing of the situations created by the
growing inadequacy of the Charter to properly meet the exigencies of
a modern municipal government, is the instance in which two City
departments became involved in a dispute which can be resolved only
by recourse to a court of law; the City Attorney obviously cannot
represent both parties to such a dispute, and as a result outside counsel
must be retained by one of the parties, at considerable expense to the
taxpayers; and
AVhereas, In the event a new Cha)-ter were ratified by the voters
and the Legislature, many desirable innovations might be instituted,
and many of the present procedural regulations might be streamlined
to facilitate an unimpeded and orderly flow of municipal business; now,
therefore, be it
Resolved. That the City Attorney be and is hereby requested to draft
proper legislation, having for its purpose the calling of an election in
the City and County of San Francisco for the purpose of selecting a
Board of Fifteen Freeholders who, when chosen by the electors of said
City and County, shall prepare and frame a new Charter for said City
and County so that the same may be submitted to the electors of said
City and County, all as provided in Section 8 of Article XI of the
Constitution of the State of California.
Referred to Legislative and Civil Serviee Committee.
Recommending Adoption of Proposed Refinancing Plan by Directors
of Golden Gate Bridge and Highway District
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor MacPhee presented Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, The citizens of San Francisco were assured before assuming
85% of the liability for the Golden Gate Bridge that the users of said
Bridge would pay all bond interest, redemption charges, and operating
costs and that no tax would ever be levied to support this project; and
Whereas, Charges for ))ond principal and interest payments will in-
crease from $1,520,000 to $3,407,000 per annum which can only be paid
by greatly increased revenues or a tax levy over a long peiiod of years;
and
Whereas, It is apparent that prophecies of large population and motor
vehicle registration increases, and other growth factors, have failed to
materialize, and that the present situation including drastic if not total
stoppage of the manufacture of new cars for civilian use, gasoline and
rul)I)er conservation, high individual income taxes, and other conditions
prevent the building up of the necessary reserves which are absolutely
essential if heavy tax levies are to be avoided in later years; and
AVbereas. A decline of approximately only 25% in the present bridge
earnings will wipe out the entire available surplus in less than two
years; and
350 MONDAY, MARCH 2, 1942
Whereas, The plan for extending the Bridge District bond amortiza-
tion tor a period of ten years on a voluntary basis for the bondliolders
lias been presented to the Directors of the District under which principal
payments will average $400,000 per annum less, or a toal of $12,000,000
over the next thirty yeai's; and
Whereas. It is the duty and obligation of every public official to do
everything in his power to fulfill the agreement made with the citizens
of San Francisco and the Bridge District at large that tax levies
would be resorted to only after all feasible methods of putting the Bridge
on a self-sustaining basis were exhausted;
Now, Therefore, be it Resolved. That the Board of Supervisors of the
City and County of San Francisco earnestly petition the Directors of
the Golden Gate Bridge and Highway District to adopt at the earliest
possible moment, the proposed refinancing plan.
Referred to Joint Pinnace and Public Utilities Committee.
Authorizing City Attorney to Prepare Charter Amendment Affect-
ing Section 92 of the Charter, Providing for Real Estate Brokers'
Commissions for Sale of City Property.
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor Mead presented Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas. At the present time all sales of real estate approved by the
City and County of San Francisco are made without the direct as-
sistance of real estate brokers and under Section 92 of the Charter no
compensation or commission is paid by the City and County of San
Francisco to any licensed broker effecting such a sale, and
Whereas. The real estate brokers of San Fi'ancisco do not actively
offer for sale the real property owned by the City and County of San
Francisco, and
Whereas, It is commonly known that a concerted sales effort by real
estate brokers of San Francisco, whose contacts greatly exceed that
of the Real Estate DepartMnent of the City and County of San Fran-
cisco, would result in the disposal of such properties as offered for
sale by the Real Estate Department of San Francisco for higher prices
to the City and County of San Francisco, and
Whereas, The City and County of San Francisco will gain as a result
of receiving better prices for their real estate owned and offered for
sale, and
Whereas, The State of California in recent legislation repealed
similar legislation discriminating against real estate brokers to the
disadvantage of the taxpayer, and
Whereas, Many cities in the east, have, by ordinance, enacted similar
legislation, realizing the advantages to the taxpayer in elTecting the
highest possible price for city-owned real estate; now. therefore, be it
Resolved. That Section 92 of the Chai-ter of the City and County of
San Francisco, be amended to read as follows:
Sale of Property
SECTION 92. Any real property owned by the City and County, ex-
cepting lands for parks and squares, may be sold on the recommendation
of the officer, board or commission in charge of the department re-
sponsible for the administration of such property. When the board of
supervisors, by ordinance, may autboi'ize such sale and determine that
the public interest or necessity denuinds. or will not l)e inconvenienced
by, such sale, the directors of property shall make a preliminary ap-
praisal of the value of such property. The director of property shall
advertise by publication the time and place of such proposed sale. He
shall forthwith leport to the department head conceined and to the
supervisors the amount of any and all tenders received l)y him. The
supervisors may authorize the acceptance of the highest and best lender.
or they m'ay, by ordinance, direct that such property be sold at public
MONDAY, MARCH 2, 1942 351
auction, date of which shall be fixed in the ordinance. No sale other
than a sale at a public auction shall l)e authorized by the supervisors
unless the sum offered shall be at least 90 per cent of the preliminary
appraisal of such property hereinbefore referred to.
The Dirccto)- Proi)crt}j of the City and County of i^an Francisco may
and said officer is eviiiowered to list for sale or exchange any property
of the City and County of San Francisco with any licensed real estate
broker, and pay said broker the prevailing real estate commission for
procuring said purchaser or change: it being further understood that
said listings may be given as an open listing to all licensed real estate
brokers who desire to work upon the sale or exchange of said parcel
of real property.
Upon acceptance of the offer for sale or exchange in excess of 90 per
cent of the appraised value by the Real Estate Department of the City
and County of San Francisco, the Director of Property shall submit the
offer to the Board of Supervisors wherein a majority vote may approve
the same at a public auction, it being understood the usual custom of
the probate department of the Superior Court affecting sale of real
estate shall prevail.
The proceeds of the sale of any property under the control of a de-
partment shall be applied by the supervisors to the purchase of addi-
tional land for the use of such department if required thereby. Other-
wise such proceeds shall be applied to the purchase of additional
real property for any city and county purpose, provided, however,
that the proceeds of the sale of any property acquired for the use of any
utility shall revert to the funds of said utility.
The director of property may, in lieu of sale, arrange for the trading
of any real property proposed to be sold for other property required
by the department in charge thereof, on the recommendation of the
officer, board or commission in charge of such property and the au-
thorization, by ordinance, of the board of supervisors,
and, be it further
Resolved, That the City Attorney be and he is hereby authorized
and requested to prepare a charter amendment to Section 92 of the
Charter as outlined above.

Street, Thoroughfare, Boulevard or Some Other of its Public
Works or Projects by the Name of the First Chief Administra-
tive Officer of San Francisco, Alfred J. Cleary.
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor O'Gara presented Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas. The late Alfred J. Cleary, the first Chief Administrative
Officer of San Francisco, for a period of nine years served his native
city with notable distinction and fidelity; and
Whereas, The said Alfred J. Cleary was an engineer of national repu-
tation both in the private practice of his profession and in the service
of San Francisco; and
Whereas, The people of San Francisco desire to commemorate in an
officral way the distinguished career of this beloved public servant;
and
Whereas, Alfred J. Cleary was associated with the development and
completion of many of the important engineering projects of San Fran-
cisco; and
Whereas. It is appropriate that the name of Alfred J. Cleary should
be oflScially impressed upon one of such public projects as a lasting
tribute to faithful and devoted service to San Francisco; now, there-
fore, be it
Resolved. That this Board of Supervisors, mindful of the benefits
352 MONDAY, MARCH 2. 1942

Report on Meeting of County Supervisors Association
Supervisor Shannon reported briefly on the meeting of the County
Supervisors Association, held in Sacramento, February 20, 1942. which
he and Supervisor Green attended, and at wliicli the question of "enemy
aliens" was discussed.
Due to his splendid personality, his legislative exoerience, and the
presentation he made before the Board of Directors of that associa-
tion. Supervisor Shannon continued. Supervisor Green was unanimously
elected as a Director of the County Supervisors Association.
Supervisor Shannon moved that the wives of Supervisors Green and
MacPhee. who had been appointed to represent the Board of Supervisors
at a meeting to be held in Washington, D. C, March 9 and 10, 1942,
also be authorized to accompany their husbands to Washington.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Mead.
Supervisor Uhl questioned whether such proposal could be carried out
legally.
The Chair stated that in his opinion it would be very unwise, and a
precedent which the Board should not establish. He doubted, also,
whether public funds could be used for such purpose.
Whereupon Supervisor Shannon suggested that the Board act on his
motion, and then get an opinion from the City Attorney as to the le-
gality thereof.
Supervisor Green thereupon expressed his thanks to Supervisors
Shannon and Mead for the kindness and regard which prompted the
motion, but stated that he, too, felt such act would be very unwise.
Point of Order
Supervisor Brown called attention to the opinion J)y the City Attorney
regarding action by motion, resolution or ordinance, and raised the
point of order that the proposed action could not be authorized by
motion.
Chair ruled the point of order well taken, and declared the motion
to be out of order.
354 MONDAY, MARCH 2, 1942
Notice of Budget Requests to be Presented
Supervisor Meyer announced that during budget consideration he in-
tended to request an appropriation item of $66,000 for Joint High-
way District No. 9 be reinserted in the budget.
Supervisor Roncovieri announced that he intended to make a like
request for Joint Highway District No. 10.
Communications
Communications were presented, read by the Clerk, and acted on as
noted :
Telegram from Maury Maverick, Chief, Governmental Requirements
Bureau, notifying the Board of meeting of County Officials to be held
in Washington, March 9 and 10, to consider county needs in relation
to national and local civilian defense, and urging representation from
San Francisco.
Supervisor Green reported that the subject of county needs in relation
to civilian defense had been considered at the meeting of the County
Supervisors Association, in Sacra'mento. He suggested that the Mayor
be invited to the Chambers and give the Board the benefit of his views.
Subsequently during the proceedings, Mr. David Lewis, representing
the Mayor, appeared in the Chambers and informed the Board that
the Mayor was not contemplating sending anyone to Washington, since
the Manager of Utilities is at present in Washington, and will remain
there until after this meeting. He, Mr. Lewis, was making a schedule
listing civilian defense requirements sent to the Mayor by each depart-
ment. A copy of that list will be sent to Mr. Cahill.
The Chair, however, suggested that since the Board is charged with
the responsibility of drav/ing up the budget and making appropriations,
it should have first hand information on such matters, and, he believed,
should have at least two representatives at the meeting. Those repre-
sentatives, he thought, should be Supervisor Green, Chairman of the
County, State and National Affairs Committee and Supervisor MacPhee.
Chairman of the Finance Committee.
Whereupon, Supervisor Mead moved that arrangements be made to
send a delegation, as suggested by the Chair, to Washington.
Supervisor Shannon agreed with the opinions expressed by the
Chair. He reported, too, that the matter had been discussed at length,
at the meeting in Sacramento, and that a number of California counties
were sending delegations to Washington to look after their interests.
Thereupon, Supervisor Mead presented the following:
President of the Board Requested to Appoint Committee of Two
to Attend Meeting of County Officials to be held in Washington,
D. C, March 9th and 10th, in Connection writh Civilian Defense.
(Series of 1939)

Discussion
Supervisor Uhl, Acting' Cliairman of the Finance Committee, ex-
plained the foregoing matter, pointing out that the proposed contribu-
tion "in lieu of taxes," was purely voluntary, and was not subject to
bargaining. The Board of Supervisors has no control in the matter.
However, Supervisor Roncovieri moved that consideration be post-
poned until the Board could hear from the Assessor, and could ascertain
how much the City and County would receive if the property were
assessed and subject to taxation; also, how much the City and County
will receive under this proposed 2i/2% contribution. Consideration
should be postponed for one week.
Supervisor Meyer agreed with Supervisor Roncovieri. "If we accept
this 214%," he said, "it seems that we are closing the door to some-
thing more later on."
Thereupon, Supervisor O'Gara requested that further consideration
be postponed temporarily, and that Mr. Evers, of the Housing Authority,
be sent for.
No objection, and so ordered.
Subsequently during the proceedings, inr. Evers, of the Housing Au-
thority, was present and he pointed out that the Housing Authority
was limited by administi'ative action of the Federal Housing Authority.
Mr. William O'Brien, Attorney for the local Authority, explained
in detail, the situation. The property of the Housing Authority is
exempt from taxation by state statute. The City is obligated to supply,
free of charge and taxes, the various public services. At the present
time the Authority is not under obligation at all to pay anything to
the City and County of San Francisco. Under the state law, the Au-
thority is permitted to make payments to the City and County in lieu
of taxes, but cannot pay. an amount more than the actual cost of services
given. The amount which the Authority can pay, and is offering to pay,
has been fixed by the Federal Authority. That is 2V^% of the shelter
rent received by the Authority.
Mr. Errol Rosenthal, Cost Analyst, presented and read to the Board,
an analysis of the proposal by the Housing Authority, which indicated
that the City would receive some $13,500 from the Housing Authority,
in lieu of taxes, if the offer should be accepted.
Thereupon, Supervisor Meyer stated that he still believed further
consideration should be postponed for one week, and he would so move.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Brown.
During the discussion on the motion for postponement. Supervisors
Gallagher, O'Cara and Brown signified their intention to vote for post-
ponement. Supervisor Brown, during his presentation to the Board,
brought out the information that services being furnished by the City
to the Housing Authority pi'ojects amounted to $197,820, for which
the Authority was promising to reimburse the City and County in the
amount of $13,000 to $1,''),000.
Supervisor Uhl, however, pointed out that the time to have threshed
this matter out was when it first came l)efore the Board.
Ml-. Evers, in further explanation of the proposal, and in answer' to
statements made, stated that the conti'ibution by the Authority, ap-
proximately $15,000, would be practically one-half the amount lost to
the City by removing the property from the assessment rolls.
Supervisor Colman expressed his opposition to delay, statiiig that
he could not see how any of the City's rights would be lost by accept-
ing the Authority's contribution immediately.

Mayor Requested to Call Meeting of Citizens Committee for the
Purpose of Organization of the San Francisco Home Guard
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor Brown presented Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, It is generally recognized that in the event of the invasion
of the Pacific Coast, it is prohalile San Francisco will he among the
first cities to he attacked; and
Whereas, Due to its exposed position, our City is exceedingly vul-
nerable to such attack by enemy forces; and
Whereas, Although Civilian Defense has been adequately organized
to take care of non-combatant types of resistance to attack, no provision
has thus far been made to augment with local effort the combatant
forces which will be opposed to the enemy; and
Whereas, Large numbers of San Francisco citizens have been and
will be non-qualified through disability, age, or other basis for defer-
ment, to become members of the military forces of the United States;
and
Whereas, Such non-qualified citizens are nonetheless capable of taking
part in home defense; now, therefore, be it
Resolved. That the Board of Supervisors does hereby heartily en-
dorse the creation of a Home Guard for San Francisco, said Home
Guard to be made up entirely of San Francisco residents and citizens,
who are not qualified for active service in the Armed Forces of the
United States; and said Guard to be employed solely in augmenting
the defense of the City of San Francisco in the event of invasion of
this immediate territory by enemy forces; and be it
Further Resolved, That the Mayor is requested to call a meeting of a
Citizens Committee for the purpose of organization of the San Fran-
cisco Home Guard.

Supervisor Colman presented Resolution No. 24S8, as follows:
Whereas. An acute farm labor shortage is said to confront Cali-
fornia agriculture this summer, due to inductions into the armed serv-
ices, defense work and evacuation of aliens, and
Whereas. A waste of food due to failure to harvest all crops would
be inimical to the nation's war effort, civilian health and the economic
welfare of the California farmers, and
Whereas, Farm leaders believe that after all other sources of farm
labor are exhausted, students, vacationers and other available city
workers may have to be relied on to help farmers harvest their crops,
and
Whereas, San Francisco recognizes an obligation to assist and serve
its agricultural neighbors in Northern and Central California for mutual
prosperity, and an evidence of such reco.gnition has created in the
city and county government a Regional Service Committee, now, there-
fore, be it
Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors of the City and County of
San Francisco does hereby instruct its Clerk to inform the Boards of
Supervisors of all counties in Northern and Central California of this

Endorsing Policy of Placing per diem Workers on Monthly Basis
(Series of 1939)
The Clerk presented, for Supervisor MacPhee, Resolution No ,
as follows:
Whereas, For some time past there have been various meetings and
conferences among the employees of the City and County of San Fran-
cisco working under the jurisdiction of the Department of Public Works
whose compensation is fixed on a per diem basis, which conferences
were held for the purpose of providing overtime compensation for said
employees during the present fiscal year; and
Whereas, Said employees agreed that if they were compensated at
overtime rates for the present fiscal year, they would be willing to have
the method of compensation changed from a per diem basis to a
monthly salary commencing July 1, 1942, said monthly compensation
to be based in accordance with the provisions of Section 151 of the
Charter, and that when said compensation was so fixed on a monthly
salary no claim would be made for compensation for overtime provided
that equal time off would be allowed for overtime served; and
Whereas. It appears to this Board of Supervisors that it is for the
benefit of the City and County of San Francisco and for the betterment
of the several departments in which said employees are employed that
the method of said employment be changed from a per diem basis to
a monthly salary commencing July 1, 1942, the said monthly compen-sa-
tion of said employees to be determined as provided in Section 151 of
the Charter; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors does hereby declare itself
to be in favor of placing said employees hereinabove mentioned on
monthly salary for the fiscal year commencing July 1, 1942, said
monthly salary to be computed as set forth in Section 151 of the
Charter.

housing projects on other parcels of property owned by said Housing
Authority; and
Whereas, Under and pursuant to the laws of the State of California
all property owned by said Housing Authority is exempt from taxes

Whereas, It is provided in Section 5, Chapter II, Laws of California,
Special Session, 1938, that any state public body may contract with a
housing authority with respect to the sum or sums which said housing
authority may agree to pay such state public body for the improvements,
services and facilities to be furnished for the benefit of said housing
authority; and
Whereas. Said Housing Authority of the City and County of Sah
Francisco has submitted to the Board of Supervisors an agreement
providing for the payment to the City and County of San Francisco
for the improvements, services and facilities to be furnished for the
benefit of said Housing Authority by said City and County and in lieu

March 9, 1942 — Consideration continued until March 16, 1942.
Discussion
Mr. Evers, of the San Francisco Housing Authority, in reply to
questioning by Supervisor O'Gara. during the discussion of the fore-
going Resolution, stated that there were at present 19% vacancies
in the various housing projects, but it is expected that within six weeks
there will be no vacancies.
Supervisor Roncovieri announced that he would vote to accept the
payment offered by the Housing Authority, in lieu of taxes, although
he was convinced that because of the increased income which tenants
of the project were permitted to enjoy, private property owners were
faced with most unfair competition.
Supervisor Brown, in explanation of his vote, stated that he was
opposed to any extension of the low cost housing program in San
Francisco, because it is evident, from discussion already had, that the
projects are now competing with privately owned property. However,
the matter before the Boai'd is the acceptance of proposed payments
in lieu of taxes, and there is no alternative except to vote for that ac-
ceptance. His attitude toward the Housing Authority program has
not changed, though.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the foregoing Resolution was
Adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, Mead, O'Gara,
Roncovieri, Shannon, Uhl — 9.
No: Supervisor Meyer — 1.
Absent: Supervisor MacPhee — 1.

Amendment Proposed
Supervisor Roncovieri moved that the foregoing Bill be amended by
striking out the amount "$17,500," in the third line of Section 2, and
inserting in lieu thereof, the amount "$25,000."
Motion seconded by Supervisor Mead, who stated, however, that his
second was merely to get the matter before the Board, as he did not
intend to vote for the amendment.
In discussing his motion. Supervisor Roncovieri held that this is
no time to rent the property at Fifth and Market Streets. The rent
or lease of the property is not the responsibility of the Board of
Supervisors. The Board claims authority over the property. That
being so, and the courts already having decided that the property is
under the authority of the Board of Education, the Board of Super-
visors should not, in any way, take part in approval of any lease
at this time. The power to rent being in the Board of Education,
Supervisor Roncovieri insisted that the responsibility for renting
the property should lie there also. Under the present war condi-
tions. Supervisor Roncovieri continued, the rentals will be low com-
pared with what they will be in the future. The property should not
be leased at all until the war is over.
Supervisor Roncovieri objected, also, to the minimum amount of
$17,500 fixed in the lease proposal. This recommended minimum
amount of $17,500 is not consistent with Mr. Phillips' statement that
he will not approve any lease proposing to pay only that amount.
Foi' that reason he had moved to increase this minimum amount from
$17,500 to $25,000, but if the proposed $25,000 is too much, he would
desire Mr. Phillips to state what would be the minimum amount that
he would approve.
Mr. Joseph J. Phillips, Director of Property, objected to the pro-
posed amendment. The law requires a minimum amount to be set forth
in the proposal to lease the property. It was the Board of Education,
though, not he, who had prescri))ed that amount of $17,500.
Motion Defeated
Thereupon, the roll was called and the motion to amend was defeated
by the following vote:
Aye: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Noes: Supervisors Brown. Colman, Gallagher, Green, Mead, Meyer,
O'Gara. Shannon, Uhl— 9.
Absent: Supervisor MacPhee — 1.
Thereupon, Supervisor Uhl proposed, as an amendment, that in Sec-
tion 8, at the end of the third line, after the words "may be rejected,"
there be inserted the words "by either the Board of Education or the
Board of Supervisors."
Mr. Phillips, in discussing the proposed amendment, announced that,
although he could see no reason for the amendment, his only objection
388 MONDAY. MARCH 16, 1942
would be that it would require an additional delay of two weeks be-
fore the matter could again come up for final passage.
Thereupon, in further discussion of the proposal to lease the property,
Supervisor Uhl objected to the proposed "master" lease. The city itself,
should rent the property to the various tenants.
Whereupon, the Director of Property objected, because of the expense
and the time involved under such procedure. If such procedure were
followed, leases for each individual tenant would take from 60 to 90
days to become final.
Postponement Defeated
Supervisor Uhl, moved that further consideration be postponed for
one week.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Roncovieri.
The roll was called and the motion was defeated by the following
vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Green, Mead, O'Gara, Roncovieri, Uhl — 5.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Meyer, Shannon — 5
Absent: Supervisor MacPhee — 1.

Motion to Reconsider
Before the result of the foregoing vote had been announced, Super-
Visor Uhl changed his vote from "No" to "Aye" and moved for recon-
sideration at the next meeting of the Board.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Mead.
The vote then stood:

Proposed Defense Bond Issues
The following communication was received and read by the Clerk:
OFFICE OF THE MAYOR
San Francisco
March 16, 1942.
Honorable Board of Supervisors,
City Hall, San Francisco.
Dear Supervisors:
At a meeting held this morning the San Francisco Civilian Defense
Council passed a resolution r(M|uesting that the Board of Supervisors
submit to the people, at the earliest possible date, two propositions to
incui' a bonded indebtedness — one for three million dollars to acquire
the necessary tire fighting cfiuipment to meet the necessities of San
Fiancisco in the present emergency; and the other for one million
MONDAY, MARCH 16, 1942 405
two hundred fifty thousand dollars to construct an auxiliary pumping
plant, pumps and pipe lines at Lake Merced for the purpose of pro-
viding an auxiliary water supply for San Francisco to be used if the
regular systtm should l)e damaged or destroyed.
At my request the City Attorney has prepared the necessary pre-
liminary resolutions to initiate both of these bond issues and I here-
with enclose you said resolutions in duplicate. I also enclose a break-
down of the several items which will aggregate three million dollars
for fire fighting equipment.
It is needless for me to direct your attention to the importance of
both of these propositions. I feel that to burden the tax payers at this
time with an increase in their tax rate for the coming year to raise
the three million dollars for fire fighting equipment would be both
unwise and unfair in view of the many other burdens they have upon
them, especially in view of the fact that much of this equipment is of
a permanent character and can be used even after the termination of
the present emergency.
As to the issue for the auxiliary pumping plant at Lake Merced, I
believe this to be absolutely necessary for the protection of the city
for if anything should happen to the water supply from the lakes in
San Mateo County or to the pipe lines leading therefrom to the city,
we might during this emergency find the situation of 1906 repeated.
This expenditure is in the nature of a capital expenditure and under
the provisions of Section 74 of the Charter should be financed by a
bond issue rather than by taxes, even if we felt it possible at this time
to increase the tax rate by this amount.
Both of these matters have received the very careful consideration
of not only the San Francisco Civilian Defense Council but also of the
Executive Committee and the Advisory Committee of that Council.
I recommend the adoption of the enclosed resolutions and that the
subsequent legislation necessary to submit these bond issues to the
people be enacted without delay.
Very truly yours,
ANGELO J. ROSSI,
End. Mayor.
Reffrred to Finance Committee.
Detailed Break-Down of Proposed Bond Requirements
March 16, 1942.
San Francisco Civilian Defense Council,
San Francisco, California.
Gentlemen :
The Advisory Committee of the San Francisco Civilian Defense
Council recommends that, in order to provide funds for facilities and
equipment for fire protection, a bond issue or issues be arranged to
provide the City and County of San Francisco with approximately
$4,250,000.00.
This Committee recommends that $1,250,000.00 of this sum be used
for the construction of a pumping plant and pipe line to make avail-
able the water of Lake Merced as a standby water supply.
The Committee further recommends that $3,000,000.00 of the above
sum be used for fire equipment, which could properly be expended as
follows:
190 Trucks for Pumpers $ 285,000.00
356 Pumpers complete with Trucks 1,281,600.00
156 Auxiliary Houses for Pumpers 234,000.00
5 Battery Trucks 67,500.00
3 Reserve Trucks 22,500.00
11 High Pressure Valve Closing Units 38,500.00
50 Reducing Valves 17,000.00
406 MONDAY, MARCH 16, 1942
600 3" X 3" Siamese Connectors 36.000.00
Air Raid Wardens' First Aid Kits and Belts 125,000.00
11 Control Cars 16,500.00
4 Canteen Units 6,000.00
Radio Equipment 118,400.00
Pumping Engines, Tractors and Trucks 90.000.00
Hose 40.000.00
Motorcycles 65,000.00
Air Raid Warden Equipment 320.000.00
Reserve for Emergency Equipment 237.000.00
$3,000,000.00
It should he noted that in addition to their value as war time pro-
tection, the facilities and equipment will he of lasting value as a pro-
tection against a great conflagration which could occur in peace time
should several fires start at the same time in the residential section
during a heavy wind storm. This has always heen a menace to San
Francisco. In addition, the standljy service from Lake Merced would
be a protection in case of an earthquake wrecking the conduit from
Crystal Springs Lakes.
Respectfully submitted,
ADVISORY BOARD.

MONDAY, MARCH 16, 1942 409
Dear Mr. Brooks:
Pursuant to the motion made by Supervisor Warren Shannon at the
Board of Supervisors' session on Monday, March 9th, requesting infor-
mation as to what plans have been made to safeguard vital City and
County records in case of emergency, I submit the following report
to you:
My first action in connection with the preservation of records was
in accordance with instruction in your letter of December 15, 1941,
wherein you asked me to make an investigation and determine what
plans have been made, and what plans should be made to safeguard vital
City and County I'ecoids. This check included other offices than my own
in the City Hall and also those in the Health Center Building.
Accordingly I addressed a letter to all members of the Recorder's
staff announcing the appointment of Mr. D. J. McGIoin, Chief Deputy
Recorder, to organize the members of said staff, who desired to volun-
teer their services in case of emergency, so that they would be avail-
able at unusual houi's for whatever duties we might find necessary to
safeguard the records of this office. A list of the vital records in the
Recorder's office was prepared in the order of their comparative im-
portance and an organization formed among the employees to remove
said records to a safe and convenient place if an emergency required
it. At the same time we formulated a system for notifying employee
volunteers quickly, in case of emergency, in accordance with the at-
tached chart.
The day following receipt of your letter, the following communica-
tion was addressed to all department heads occupying space in the
City Hall and the Health Center Building:
"I have been requested by Mr. T. A. Brooks, Chief Adminis-
trative Officer, to investigate and determine what plans have
been made for the safeguarding and preservation of vitally
important records in the event of fire or other calamity dur-
ing the present emergency.
"Will you prepare a list of records in your department which
you consider to be of sufficient importance to be preserved in
case of necessity? This list should include only those records
ivhich cannot he replaced.
"Please indicate also whether or not the records ai'e in daily
use, or could they be stored in a vault In some safe and conve-
nient location.
"The suggestion has also been made that the personnel in
your office be organized so as be available to remove said rec-
ords from the building in case of fire. In this connection I
would suggest that you send me a list of the v®lunteers in your
department so that they can be provided with proper identifica-
tion for admittance to the building in case of emergency.
"Your suggestions relative to the preservation of important
records is invited.
"Very truly yours,
(Signed) "THOS. A. TOOMEY, Recorder."
I immediately consulted the City Architect and from the plans of
the City Hall ol)tained the number and location of the various fireproof
vaults throughout the building. In the meantime, I contacted personally
the thirteen department heads who in my opinion were the custodians
of records that either could not be replaced or of which replacements
could be made only at great expense. Arrangements were immediately
made to move vital records into fireproof vaults where vault space was
available. In some instances it was necessary to remove vital records,
that were not open to daily inspection of the public, to areas in the
basement of the City Hall, that offered some protection from fire or
other calamity. This has been done.
On Deceml)er 17, 1941, I made a preliminary written report to you
410 MONDAY, MARCH 16, 1942
suggesting the reproduction of vital records on either 16-millimeter or
35-millimeter microfilm. The survey showed this to he the most effi-
cient and logical means of preserving records.
On Decemher 22, 1941, I made a more complete report to you in writ-
ing, summing up my recommendations for the preservation of vital
records l)y organization of employees in the various offices to carry out
the program. This organization was perfected.
In accordance with verbal instructions received from you in the
meantime, a further study was made to determine what records should
be reproduced on microfilm in the event that equipment could be pur-
chased from the manufacturers.
Under date of January 19, 1942, I received the following letter:
"Mr. T. A. Toomey,
"Recorder, City Hall.
"Dear Mr. Toomey:
"Reference is made to your letters of December 17 and 22,
1941, and January 8, 1942, relative to safeguarding vital City
and County records in case of emergency.
"Chief Charles W. DuUea, Coordinator, Civil Defense Council,
has appointed you to his staff of advisers and respectfully asks
that you present recommendations as to what steps should be
taken for the preservation of important records. Will you.
therefore, please present your recommendations to Chief DuUea
together with such requisitions for equipment as you believe
necessary in the matter.
"Very ti'uly yours,
(Signed) "T. A. BROOKS,
"Chief Administrative Officer."
On the following day a letter signed by Chief Chas. W. Dullea was
directed to all department heads in the city government, as follows:
"OFFICE OF THE DIRECTOR OF CIVILIAN DEFENSE
"City and County of San Francisco
"January 20, 1942.
"To All Department Heads:
"A preliminary survey has been made of certain departments
in the city government to determine what plans have been made
for the safeguaiding and preservation of vitally important
records in the event of fire or other calamity during the pres-
ent emergency.
"This investigation has developed to a point where every
available safeguard has been i)laced around vital records to
insure their preservation insofar as is possible. Our investi-
gation has disclosed the fact that there are certain records in
the city government which in case of destruction, either cannot
be replaced or the cost of replacing would be exorbitant. In
order to take (>very precaution, consideration is being given to
photographing certain records on either 16-mm or 35-mm
microfilm.
"To help us in f.stimating the work involved, and to allow
us to foimulate an orderly procedure for accomplishing this,
will you please send to Mr. Thos. A. Toomey, Recorder, Re-
corder's OflSce, City Hall, at your earliest convenience, a list of
the vital records in your department that deserve special con-
sideration for their preservation?
"Please be sure that this list includes oiili/ tho.sc rccorfis

unusual hardship, or icould require their replacement at extra-
ordinary expense.
"Very truly yours,
(Signed) "CHARLES W. DULLEA,
"Director of Civilian Defense."
Upon receiving some response to tlie above letter, I directed a letter
through you to Charles W. Dullea, Director of Civilian Defense, vi^hich
reads as follows:
"January 23, 1942.
"Charles W. Dullea.
"Director Civilian Defense.
"City and County of San Francisco.
"Dear Sir:
"In accordance with instructions received from Mr. T. A.
Brooks, Chief Administrative Officer, and confirmed in his
letter to me under date of January 19. 1942. I have made further
investigations regarding the use of microfilm for preserving
vital records of the City and County of San Francisco.
"The necessity for preserving our vital records is quite ap-
parent, and the method to be employed in the preservation of
these records is a subject that was discussed several weeks
ago. On December 17, 1941, I recommended to Mr. Brooks the
use of microfilm for the duplicating and preservation of certain
vital records in my office to prevent their loss through some
calamity. Since that date I have been investigating the use
of microfilm in piivate business and also in various govern-
mental offices, and I am convinced that from the standpoint of
safety, convenience and economy, the microfilm process used
for this purpose is far and away the best method yet presented
to my notice.
"In attempting to formulate an orderly procedure for the du-
plication of vital City and County records on microfilm, I find it
necessary to consult with all department heads with regard to
certain matters brought out l^y your circular letter of January
20th. From answers already received it is evident that there is
a difference of opinion among department heads as to which
records are vital and which are not. In order to consider care-
fully the problems of each department and to finally arrive at
a determination of just which records are to be preserved on
microfilm, it will be necessary to make further studies and to
have further discussions with department heads supplemented
by talks with others qualified to pass judgment on this subject.
"My suggestion in this matter is that you permit me to re-
quest the services of an engineer and an accountant, and such
other persons as might be qualified to assist in making deci-
sions on the data submitted by the various department heads.
These people to be recruited from city services and, of course,
at no additional expense. I would also suggest that the neces-
sary equipment for photographing the records be ordered im-
mediately, and with the understanding that the orders for film
would be placed at a later date. This w^ould cause no delay in op-
erations due to the fact that the machine must be shipped
from Rochester, N. Y.. and the film can be delivered from the
San Francisco office of the Recordak Company. I am attaching
hereto a requisition for your signature covering the necessary
equipment less the film.
"In entering the order for the equipment, please stress the
fact that this order should be given priority rights in view of
the purpose for which it is to be used, otherwise there will
be considerable delay in making delivery.
"The total cost of the necessary equipment is $1,564.50.
412 MONDAY, MARCH 16, 1942
"It is impossible at this time to state the appropriation nec-
essary to purchase film, as we do not know at this moment
which and how many of our City and County Records should
be photographed for preservation.
"The equipment proposed for purchase will accommodate both
35 mm. and 16 mm. film. The 35 mm. film will cost $7.15 per
roll of 100 feet; this is on the basis of a minimum purchase of
100 rolls. This 35 mm. film must be developed at the Recordak
plant, in Rochester, and the price of the film includes process-
ing and return transportation. The Recordak Company prom-
ises a ten-day service in developing. This 35 mm. will take
pictures as large as 36 x 51 inches.
"The 16 mm. film, in rolls of 100 feet, will cost $3.50 per
I'oll. This price, of course, includes processing, which is done
locally. 16 mm. film will take pictures as large as 10 x 14 in-
ches. The question of developing films by our employees was
discussed with the Recordak Company, but they will make no
allowance from the above prices if we do our own processing,
and they strongly recommend against this procedure as their
equipment, methods and procedure for this type of work insure
the best possible results.
"As an example of the volume of work recorded on one roll of
film, actual tests have been made on official record books in my
office, and we find that by using 35 mm. film and photogi'aphing
two pages at once, that we can reproduce about 18 hundred
pages on one 100 foot roll of film.
"The information received so far from the various depart-
ment heads does not permit making a reasonable approximation
of the amount necessary to purchase film for the list of records
already submitted and those still to be submitted. At a very
rough guess, I would place the figure around $8,000. This figure
of course, can be reduced; it depends entirely upon the judg-
ment of those who are to determine the volume of records suf-
ficiently important to warrant their preservation by this method.
"Rather than set forth here a lengthy report on all phases of
this subject; such as the widespread use of this equipment
by private corporations, banks and governmental jurisdictions,
also the various means of using micro-film records, I shall
explain this later with a more detailed report, and at that
time I shall furnish you with an itemized list of the records
which have been submitted for reproduction, together with a
brief description of them, giving their sizes and locations.
"Approved Jan. 23, 1942 Very truly yours.
"T. A. Brooks, Chief (Signed) THOS. A. TOOMEY,
"Administrative Officer Recorder"
(Original sent to Chief Dullea)
Attached to this letter was a requisition for "One Model D Microfilm
Recordak; One Converter Assembly for 16 mm film and One Model C
Library Film Reader. This letter had your approval on the same day
it was delivered, and I was later informed by the Purchasing Depart-
ment that order had been entered with the Recordak Company for the
above mentioned e(|uii)ment to be shipped from the Eastman Kodak
Company's plant at Rochester, New York.
Since the date the Recordak machine was ordered, I have compiled
a list of vital records submitlod by depai'tment heads, both by letter
and in verbal discussions, and this list is now ready as a reference
for the orderly piocedure of leproducing these records on microfilm,
just as soon as the equipment is made available. In the meantime,
meetings are being held between myself, an accountant from the Con-
troller's office, an attorney from the City Attorney's office and an en-
gineer fiom the Department of Public Works to weed out some of the
I
MONDAY, MARCH 16. 1942 413
material that we feel is not of such vital importance that it should be
reproduced on microfilm and at the same time to canvas the city
government more fully to make sure that no important or vital records
have been omitted by department heads.
Thus, we have taken immediate precautions against damage to our
vital records, first by using all of the available fireproof storage space;
second, certain area has been set aside in the basement of the City Hall,
preferably that area surrounded by fireproof walls on two or three
sides, for the storage of records that are infrequently referred to;
third, organizations among various oflSces having vital records have
been completed under the direction of the department heads for the
removal of said records to a safe or convenient place if necessity
demands it. and fourth, finally to commence reproduction on micro-
film for storage in a safe place outside of the city, just as soon as
the equipment is made available.
Yours very truly.

March 16, 1942 — Consideration iwstponed one week and made Special
Order for 3:00 P. M.
Discussion
At the hour of 3:00 P. M., when the foregoing Special Order was
called up for consideration, the Clerk informed the Board that inas-
much as the items contained in the proposed legislation were all in-
cluded in Resolution No. 2514, just adopted. I'equesting the Civil Service
Commission for report as to the effect of proposed amendments to
classification schedules submitted by said Commission for positions in
the "B" classifications of the municipal service, action should be
postponed.
Supervisor MacPhee agreed with the Clerk that no action was nec-
essary at this time, but moved the privilege of the floor for anyone
who might desire to discuss the matter.
Supervisor Green, however, recommended passage of the foregoing
Bill. It is the only thing to do and it will correct a mistake made
sometime ago. The matter should be voted on without delay.
Supervisor Uhl reported that a statement which he had requested
as to present salaries of employees affected indicated that the cost
to the City and County of the proposed standardization would be
$13,860 annually.
Supei'visor Colman objected to the proposed standardization. It was,
he stated, piecemeal standardization. He l)elieved the whole subject
should be taken up at once. He was opposed to piecemeal standardi-
zation, and he would vote against the foregoing Bill just for that
reason. He desired to see this matter postponed until additional re-
ports are received.
Supervisor Brown agreed with Supervisor Colman. stating that he,
too, was opposed to piecemeal standardization.
Supervisoi' Green, also stated that he did not believe that piecemeal
standaidization was a good thing, but, he continued, that .Judge Rob-
inson had stated that a mistake had been made, and this proposed
MONDAY. MARCH 23. 1942 417
legislation would correct that erroi-. He believed the Boai'd should
look at this matter in the proper light, and should pass it.
Supei-visor Mead opposed delay. Standardization as a whole is not
possible. Postponement would merely delay consideration of some
worthy cases.
Supervisor MacPhee stated he believed it to be the duty of the
Board to standardize salaries. These employees are deserving of the
same consideration that is given to labor.
Supervisor Shannon urged passage of the proposed legislation. By
the Board's approval, a mistake made sometime ago, for which he felt
himself to be partly responsible, at least, would be corrected.
Supervisor Uhl recommended postponement. The Board should wait,
he believed, before acting, to learn what the Mayor plans to do re-
garding salaries, in his consideration of the coming budget.
The Chief Administrative Officer, who was present, in reply to re-
quest by Supervisor Uhl, stated that last year the Mayor had inaugu-
rated the policy of allowing increases on the basis of three steps,
in a spread of less than $50.00; in spread of $50.00 or more, five steps.
Last year the first step was recommended, and the Mayor had stated
that he would approve the second step in the coming budget, and he.
the Chitf Administrative Officer, had instructed heads of departments
under his jurisdiction to provide for that second step.
Thereupon, Supervisor Colman again expressed his opposition to
the proposed standardization, for the following reasons: 1. It is
piecemeal standardization. 2. There is no reason to give preference
to a small group of employees now and go on record without having
considered the demands of all other groups in the city's employ.
"Without going into the merits of these particular employees, they are
entitled to no more consideration than are others in the city's employ.
In approving this matter, the Board would not be acting wisely,
in his opinion, and would not know just where such step would lead.
Supervisor O'Gara announced his intention to vote "Aye." He be-
lieved the error in paying Superior Court Clerks less than the Municipal
Court Clerks should be corrected. There is at present an inequality
that should be corrected.
Supei-visor Shannon announced his intention to vote "Aye," and
thus help to correct an error made four years previously.
Passage for Second Reading
Thereupon the roll was called and the following Bill was
Passed for Second Reading by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher. Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara.
Roncovitri. Shannon — 8.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Uhl — 3.

provement of Bayshore Highway later than June, 1942. and accordingly
any bonds must be authorized before that time.

Explanations of Votes
Supervisor Colman explained his intended vote, saying he would
vote in favor of the proposed bond issue because the money provided
thereby could be made available within ten days after the approval
of the bonds. He had seen figures which seem to indicate there would
be available close to $3,000,000 that might obviate the necessity of a
bond issue. However, no such money could be made available until
September. However, he would call to the attention of the Finance
Committee that if upon investigation the committee finds that these
funds might have become available without going to bond issue, any
savings made should be reflected in the tax rate next year, and should
be appropriated for the benefit of the taxpayer, to ofiiset additional
428 MONDAY. MARCH 23, 1942
cost for bond intei'est, etc. Foi' those reasons he would vote in favor of
the bond issue.
Supervisor Uhl, in replying to Supervisor Colman, stated that the
views of Supervisor Colniau were shared by the Finance Committee.
It was specifically understood in committee that no money would be
appropriated unless approved by the Hoai'd of Supervisors.
Supervisor MacPhee informed the Board that the bond issue was for
Civilian Defense. It is only for items as needed; none is for salaries.
Supervisor Callagher questioned the proposed date for bond election,
holding that, in his opinion, it should be held before June 9.
Whereupon, further consideration was temporarily postponed until
the Board could hear from the Registrar of Voters as to the earliest
time at which an election could be held.
Subsequently during the proceedings, both the City Attorney and
the Registrar of Voters were present.
Mr. Cameron King, Registrar of Voters, pointed out that the work
necessary in re-districting of the City and County, in accordance with
recent State legislation is in the process of being performed, and
June 9 is the earliest date at which he could guarantee that work
would be done, and an election could be held. While it might be pos-
sible to complete the re-districting a week or perhaps two weeks earlier,
he could not be sure of such completion.
The City Attorney, also, confirmed the statement by the Registi'ar
of Voters. In addition he pointed out the steps required in authorizing
a bond issue, indicating that no time is being lost in providing for
bond election on June 9, 1942.

ROLL CALL FOR THE INTRODUCTION OF RESOLUTIONS,
BILLS AND COMMUNICATIONS NOT CONSIDERED OR
REPORTED UPON BY A COMMITTEE.
Resolution of Proposed Legislation in re Civilian Defense
Supervisor Colman presented the following:
March 23. 1942.
Honorable Board of Supervisors,
City Hall.
San Francisco, California.
Dear Supervisors:
I am herewith transmitting to you the following ordinances and
resolutions:
1. An ordinance to amend Section .5 of the Civilian Defense
Council by providing for a Director of Operations and also
making provision for the position of Director of Civilian
Defense and providing for his qualifications.
2. An ordinance providing for an appropriation of $1975 to
care for the salary of this position until June 30 of the
present year.
3. An amendment of the Salary Ordinance to care for said
position.
4. The recommendation of the Civil Service Commission that
the position of Director of Civilian Defense be exempted
from the residential qualifications of the charter.
5. A resolution to be passed by your Board approving the
recommendation of the Mayor and the Civil Service Com-
mission in exempting this position from the residential
qualifications provided for in Section 7 of the Charter.
It is important that all these ordinances and resolutions should be
passed as emergency measures at the earliest possible moment, for
the reason that the existing emergency necessitates the position of
Director of Civilian Defense being filled at once.
Chief Charles W. Dullea found that the work of Director of Civilian
Defense took so much of his time that his work as Chief of Police
was suffering.
I have made a very careful survey to find a successor for Chief
Dullea and intend to select Mr. John E. Helms. Mr. Helms is an expert
in Civilian Defense. He is a graduate civil engineer skilled in his pro-
fession: has served as Regional Director of the Civilian Defense Council
of the western states and has been the head of the California State
Council of Civilian Defense. Therefore I can state positively to you
that Mr. Helms is qualified in every way to act as Director of Civilian
Defense for our local Defense Council. As a matter of fact, I believe
the City is extremely fortunate to be able to obtain the services of
Mr. Helms in this important position.
The reason for exempting the position from the residential qualifi-
cations is that up to a short time ago Mr. Helms was a resident of
Palo Alto; however, he has now taken up his residence in San Fran-
cisco, but as a charter provision ordinarily requires a year's residence
before a person is eligible to be appointed to a position, I am asking
the exemption of the position from the residential qualifications pro-
vided for in the charter.
444 MONDAY, MARCH 23, 1942
I trust that your Boaid will, after proper committee approving
these ordinances and resolutions, pass the same without delay, as it is
extremely impoitant that the position of Director of Civilian Defense
should not remain unfiFled.
Very truly yours,
ANGELO J. ROSSI.
Mayor.

Discussion re Foregoing Presented Legislation
Supervisor O'Gara, in discussins in general the foregoing recom-
mendations of his Honor, the Mayor, which had just been presented
by Supervisoi' Colman. announced that while speedy action was, no
doubt, essential, it was rathei' disconcei'ting to read about these matters
in the newspapers foi' three or four days before they are presented
to the Board.
Thereupon. Supervisor O'Gara moved that whenever his Honor, the
Mayor, has any matters which he feels should have emergency action
by the Board of Supervisors, that such matters be presented to the
Clerk in sufficient time to enable him to have copies attached to the
Calendars on the Member's desks.
Supervisor Colman, however, suggested that all such matters should
be sent to the Board prior to Thursday so that the Clerk might refer
them to the Finance Committee.
Supervisor O'Gara accepted the President's suggestion in lieu of his
own motion.
Supervisor Roncovieri suggested that inasmuch as the foregoing
matters reciuired emergency action, that the Finance Committee meet
on Tuesday, to consider them, and the Board meet in recessed session
on Wednesday or on Thursday, March 25 or 26, so that they might be
disposed of during the current week, and that he would so move.
Motion failed for want of a second.
Mr. David Lewis, in reply to Supervisor O'Gara, pointed out that
the two immediately foregoing Bills, providing for appropriations of
$125,000 and $25,000, respectively, from Public Welfare Department
funds, could not have been presented in time for Finance Committee
consideiation, l)ecause the Public Welfare Commission did not meet
until Thursday afternoon, too late to get the matters in shape in time
for the Finance Committee meeting. The Department of Public Health
has an appropriation ordinance now in the making, to appropriate
$75,000 to take care of people in San Francisco Hospital and the Laguna
Honda Home, for food stuffs, made necessary because of the increased
cost of food. Mr. Moran. of the Health Department, can explain better
than he can. the needs of that department. As to Civilian Defense,
there is a real necessity for that appropriation. Those funds are
i-unning low.
Mr. Moran, from the Health Department, e.xplained that the De-
partment is now operating by sufferance. There is not sufficient funds
on hand to cover the cost of supplies needed. The Department hopes
to have the necessary ordinance before the Finance Committee in
time for its next meeting. That ordinance is predicated on the passage
of the Bill just presented.
The Clerk presented the following Finance Committee recommenda-
tion:

Urging Mitigation of Severity of Federal Priorities Order
Affecting Gold Mining
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor Colman presented Resolution No. 2512, as follows:
Whereas, California's gold mining industry may be forced to shut
down almost entirely through application of Federal priorities orders,
and
Whereas, 142,000 citizens in thirteen California counties within San
Francisco's trade area are substantially dependent upon mining ac-
tivities for their livelihood, and
Whereas, State mining experts estimate that only an infinitesimal
amount of the nation's essential steel is necessary to keep California's
gold mines in operation, and
Whereas, Serious damage to one of the State's basic industries,
depopulation of mining communities and harm to the morale of the
affected citizens is to be avoided at any cost consistent with the nation's
war effort, and
Whereas. San Francisco's close relationship with and interest in the
welfare of the gold mining industry dates back to 1849.
Now, Therefore, be it Resolved That the Board of Supervisors of the
City and County of San Francisco does hei'eby recommend to San
Francisco's representatives in Congress that they assist Congressional
representatives of California's mining communities in mitigating the
severity of Federal priorities orders as they affect gold mining, and,
be it further
Resolved that the Board of Supervisors offer to the mining industry
such other assistance as is compatible with the nation's w^ar effort,
and be it further
Resolved that San Francisco be represented l)y this Board or by
the Regional Service Committee at the state-wide meeting of the gold
mining industry at Sacramento, Friday, March 27.
Adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Bi'own, Colman, Gallagher, Green. MacPhee, Mead,
Meyer, O'Gara, Roncovieri. Shannon, Uhl — 11.
Report by Supervisors Chester R. MacPhee and Robert Miller
Green on Trip to Washington, D. C, March 6th to March 16th,
for Meeting Called by Maury Maverick, Chief of the Govern-
mental Requirements Bureau.
Submitted March 17, 1942
The following report was received and ordered made part of the
record:
MONDAY. MARCH 23, 1942 455
The meeting of the National Association of County Officials at
Washington, D. C, on March 9th and 10th, 1942, originally scheduled
for the main auditorium of the Social Security Bldg.. was transferred
to the Rose Room of the Washington Hotel.
This transfer was occasioned because of the excessive number of
officials who arrived to participate in the discussions. It was esti-
mated the attendance was three times that expected.
A suggested list of substitutes for critical materials in building
construction and a list of emergency alternate federal specifications
were handed each delegate at the meeting.
A thorough transcript of the entire proceedings was prepared by the
Association and a complete copy will be furnished each delegate.
The meeting on Monday morning, March 9th was opened by A. Smith,
President of the National Association of County Officials, with the
statement that. "There has never been a meeting of County Officials in
Washington. D. C. County Officials have less recognition and organi-
zation in Washington, D. C. than any other official body."
"We are here because the Supervisors and County Officials have been
excluded in the council of our government, and we are here to better
understand how to approach our mutual problems."
Mr. Maury Maverick. Chief of the Governmental Requirements
Bureau, introduced Mr. Leon Henderson, Administrator of the Office
of Price Administration. Some of the highlights of Mr. Henderson's
remarks follow :
"The cost of living has gone up steadily since March of 1941, in
some months as high as 1-34% and an average since that time of 1%
per month; this Increase affects merchandise, service rents, etc."
He also stated that, "The O. P. M. has charge of prices, rents, ration-
ing, and for the supplies for Civilian Defense."
"We should contemplate decentralization and not try to run the
entire program from Washington."
"Over 9000 rationing boards that started as tire rationing boards
are being prepared to handle the increased amount of work brought
about by the scarcity of other products."
"The O. P. M. has made arrangements^to staff these boards (many
having as high as sixty boards in one county), with a clerk and
stenographer and will have to go farther in this respect. The O. P. M.
has already had rent declaration in twenty defense areas and there
are one hundred additional areas under study."
"The rent control division is under Paul Porter who should be con-
tacted in reference to our problems."
"The Germans and Japanese have for many years past devoted more
than fifty percent of their effort for war goods and training of soldiers."
"At the end of 1941 the United States was using twenty to twenty-two
percent of our resources for war effort."
"When we get to forty per cent (which we will do in the latter part
of 1942), we will equal the combined war effort of the Germans, Italians
and Japanese."
"I have been disappointed in the rate of production in the past."
"This is the first time the civilian population has been called upon to
sacrifice their lives as in the bomliing of London. Poland. Java, etc.,
in addition to the other sacrifices that necessarily must be made by
civilians."
"With the Government buying 45.000 tanks and 60.000 airplanes
and the many other requirements of the war. there just isn't enough
goods to go around."
"We have almost reached a limit of production and we face increased
wage scales, higher farm prices, higher profits to corporations and
individuals. Shortages of material and the conversion of our efforts
456 MONDAY, MARCH 23, 1942
to the war industry will lessen our ability to piocure many of the
things we have been accustomed to."
"This is a good time for people to l)uy property."
"Back in eveiy community we face a trtmendous problem of in-
flation."
"We must put explicit faith and trust in our county oi'ganizations."
"We must exercise a heavy restraint on wage increases; we must
adopt a wage policy."
At the luncheon of the National Association of County Officials hi Id
in the Hotel Washington on March 9th, Mr. Maury Maverick was in-
troduced by President William A. Smith of California.
Some of the notes on Mr. Maverick's talk are as follows:
"This meeting may be one of the most important meetings of the
war."
"The United States is in the worst shape of its history."
"I am astonished at the number of people present at this meeting."
"Tell the other county officials in your state of the importance of
having representation in Washington."
"The basis of the democratic form of government is in local self-
government."
"Local self-government is the basis of the defense of the U. S. A."
"My personal opinion is that the hardships brought about by this war
and the sacrifices to come will be more severe than the Civil War or
the Revolutionary War."
"It is more important to have steel in the hands of our soldiers than
for the construction of buildings; Unions should work forty, forty-
eight and sixty hours per week."
"Instead of labor strikes in the U. S., we should all strike against
the Nazis and Japs In a united effort, '
"Every man, woman, and child in Germany, Italy and Japan are
working hard and spending their time trying to figure out ways to
make slaves of us."
"Labor and Capital, Catholics and Protestants and all people must
stick together and not ask •for privileges or rights just because they
are their rights. This is no time to argue amongst ourselves about
about rights. When we start talking about 'strikes,' 'pickets,' 'rights,'
etc.. it is time to realize there will be none of these things unless we
win the war."
"We must sti-ip all vital mat -rials from projects before filing appli-
cations for priorities."
"We must substitute temporary structures for permanent buildings."
"It looks like there will be no more vital materials and all projects
should be taken up on a temporary basis."
During the afternoon, we heard talks by Mr. Edward Ennis of the
Enemy Control Unit of the United States Department of Justice and by
Mr. Frank .Maxton. Chief of the Project Section, Bureau of Govern-
mental requirements.
At 4:00 P. M., the Honorable Henry A. Wallace, "Vice-President of the
United States, addressed the meeting. Some of his remarks follow:
"1942 will see an all-out effort of the enemy to win the war. realizing
as they do. that they must win it in 1942 if they are to win it at all."
"The purchasing power today is 307^ greatei- than at any time during
the past five years. We will have extraoi-dinary purchasing power in
1942, so great that it may interfere with the war effort."
"It is our duty to conserve rubber. Taking the country as a whole,
we haven't begun to sacrifice yet."
"1942 is the most important year in the last 500 for the United States;
MONDAY. MARCH 23, 1942 457
an importance for which words cannot be found to express — something
beyond the comprehension of anyone."
On Tuesday morning. March 10th, were were addressed by Dean
James Landis. Diiector of the Office of Civilian Defense. A few of
his remarks follow:
"The shores of this country are not safe. We now have two and
one-half million civilian defense workers and I hope soon to report
we have doubled this number. With regard to those in authority, it
may be necessary to keep their feet in the fire in order to get the nec-
essary results."
After the talk by Mr. Landis. the meeting was thrown open for
questioning and among other questions we asked Mr. Landis if he was
satisfied the 100 million dollars already appropriated for Civilian
Defense was sufficient to furnish the necessary protection for the
defense of our civilians. His answer was NO!
We were addressed at lunch on March 10th by J. S. Knowlson, Di-
rector of Industry Operations, War Production Board, which concluded
our part in the discussions of the National Association of County
Officials.
Upon consummation of the meeting of the National Association of
County Officials, we spent considerable time in the office of Mr. Mav-
erick in response to a request from Mr. WMlder. This was in reference
to certain priorities for the Lincoln Way Storm Sewer. A P. D. lA
application was made, requesting a change in priority from AlO to A3.
We were assured this change will be granted.
We visited with Congressmen Rolph and Welch and also contacted
the Civilian Defense authorities with reference to further aid to San
Francisco in the allotment of Civilian Defense supplies.
Following the presentation of the foregoing report, and under his
name on Roll Call, Supervisor MacPhee expressed to the Board his
appreciation of having been delegated to represent the Board at
Washington.
California Highway Commission Requested to Remove Traffic
Hazards Surrounding Live Stock Pavilion
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor Mead presented Resolution No. 2516. as follows:
Whereas, It has been brought to the attention of this Board of Super-
visors that traffic conditions surrounding the Live Stock Pavilion
are rendered insupportable by reason of a total lack of any traffic
regulations or mechanical devices for the protection of the public, as
well as a lack of proper lighting facilities for those using the high-
ways after nightfall;
Whereas, Since the inception of the recent outbreak of hostilities
between this country and the Empire of Japan the Live Stock Pavilion
has been used to house members of the Armed Forces of the United
States; and
Whereas, To this date thei-e have been three soldiers killed through
traffic accidents occurring on the highways adjacent to the Live Stock
Pavilion, and three others so seriously injured that they are expected
to die; and
Whereas, This condition is one that, while it is thus forcefully
and tragically brought to the attention of this Board, nevertheless
was not of so paramount importance until the use of the Live Stock
Pavilion for the housing of the Military; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the California State Highway Commission be and it
is hereby respectfully requested to take such steps as are necessary
to immediately alleviate the traffic hazards surrounding the Live
Stock Pavilion to the end that there be no further loss of life.

Suppression of Japanese Newspapers
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor Shannon presented Resolution No. 2517, as follows:
Whereas. There are two Japanese newspapers of more than negli-
gible circulation in the City of San Francisco, The Nichi Bei, doing busi-
ness at 650 Ellis Street, and The Japanese New World-Sun Daily, doing
business at 1618 Geary Street; and
Whereas. These publications enjoy their usual uninterrupted cir-
culation despite the fact that the Empire of Japan and the United
States of America are at war; and
Whereas. It must be self evident even to the casual observer that
espionage and fifth column activities may be promulgated and brought
to a successful fruition through the medium of the newspapers men-
tioned; and
Whereas, Nothing has as yet been done that appears on the surface
to suppress the dissemination of news by the Japanese; now, there-
fore, be it
Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors of the City and County of
San Francisco does hereby go on record as respectfully but nevertheless
vigorously requesting the representatives of California in Congress and
the Senate, the Federal Authorities, the Director of Civilian Defense,
the Chief of Police of the City and County of San Francisco, the
Governor of the State of California, and the Military authorities to
do all things within their power to immediately suppress the dissemi-
nation of news by the means of newspapers published in the Japanese
language; and be it
Fui-ther Resolved, That the Clerk of the Board be and he is hereby
requested to impart this urgent request to the authorities named herein.
Adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Supei-visors Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer,
O'Gara, Roncovieri, Shannon, Uhl — 10.
Absent: Supervisor Brown — 1.

Whereas, Death has suddenly taken from us the person of the
Honorable George J. Steiger, Presiding Judge of the Superior Bench of
San Fi'ancisco; and
Wherecis, Educated tor the Law as he was in the University of Cali-
fornia, engaging in private practice for twenty-two years until he was

Bench which office he occupied until 1937 when he was appointed Pre-
siding Judge of the Superior Bench of San Francisco where he worked
assiduously and conscientiously until the time of his death ; and
Whereas. Judge Steiger's host of friends in fi'aternal circles, and the
political life of San Francisco, mourn his passing; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors does by this means express
to the family of the late deceased its heartfelt sympathy at the loss of
Judge George J. Steiger; and be it
Further Resolved, That the Clerk be and he is hereby instructed to

City Attorney as to the liability of the Union Square Garage Company
for the street work being authorized.
Subsequently during the proceedings, the City Attorney reported that
in his opinion the improvement was one benefiting the the City and
County of San Francisco and should, therefore, be paid for by the City
and County. While the improvement would, of course, benefit the
garage company, the main benefit would be to the people of San
Francisco. For that reason the cost of the improvement is properly
chargeable to the City and County.

At the request of Supervisor O'Gara, the following communications
from the Controller and from the City Attorney were ordered made
part of the record:
OFFICE OF THE CONTROLLER
February 16, 1942.
Honorable Angelo J. Rossi,
Mayor of San Francisco.
The Honorable the Board of Supervisors,
City and County of San Francisco.
Gentlemen:
Transmitted herewith you Vv'ill find the following documents:
Three copies of proposed ordinance authorizing a supple-
mental appropriation of $13,416.40 for the widening of Geary
Street between Powell and Stockton and for the widening of
Powell Street between Geary and Post fronting Union Square
Garage.
Three copies of proposed ordinance appropriating $58,312
for the widening of certain portions of Army Street, Market
Street, Portola Drive, and Castro Street additional mainte-
nance; widening of Visitacion Avenue, Post Street, Powell to
Stockton, Stockton Street, Post to Geary; and right of way
for .Junipeio Seira Boulevai'd.
These two ordinances (in addition to other matters) propose to
provide funds for the widening of streets caused by the proposed elim-
ination of the present sidewalk area fronting the ITnion Square Garage.
Undei- Section 10 of the agreement between the City and County of
San Fiancisco and the Union Square Garage Corporation, it is piovided
MONDAY, MARCH 30, 1942 4«3
that the lessee shall indemnify the City and County for any and all
expenses resulting from or occasioned by the construction of the Union
Square Garage or resulting from its occupation or operation.
If the referenced street widening creates an expense resulting from
or occasioned by the construction of the Union Square Garage or re-
sulting from its occupation or operation, it would seem that these
ordinances should make provision for the fund advances to be required
of or the guarantees of payment to be given by the Union Square Garage
Corporation to the City and County of San Francisco.
Yours very truly,
H. D. ROSS.
For HAROLD J. BOYD.
Controller.
March 6, 1942.
SUBJECT: In re, Liability of Union Square
Garage Corporation for widening
Streets surrounding Union Square.
Dear Sir:
I am in receipt of a letter under date of February 16th addressed
to you by the Controller relative to the expenditure of certain municipal
funds for widening the roadways of Geary Street between Powell and
Stockton Streets, of Powell Street between Geary and Post Streets,
Post Street between Powell and Stockton Streets, and Stockton Street
between Post and Geary Streets. With the communication from the
Controller are two appropriation ordinances approved by the Director
of Public Works, by the Chief Administrative Officer and by the Con-
troller and approved as to form by the City Attorney, which said
ordinances provide for appropriations for the widening of the above
mentioned streets. A similar letter is addressed by the Controller to
the Board of Supervisors.
Opinion
The Controller directs particular attention to paragraph 10 of the
Agreement between the Board of Park Commissioners and the Union
Square Garage Corporation, which paragraph reads as follows, to-wit:
"10. Indemnity. Lessee assumes all risks and hazards in
connection with the construction of improvements on the de-
mised premises and the occupation and operation thereof, and
hereby covenants and agrees to indemnify and save harmless
the City and County of San Francisco, the Board, their respec-
tive officers, agents and employees, from and against any and
all liability, loss and expense arising from injury to or death
of persons whomsoever and loss of or damage to property
whatsoever occasioned in whole or in part by the acts or
omissions of Lessee, its agents, employees, or contractors,
or resulting from or occasioned by the construction of improve-
ments or the occupation or operation of the demised premises
by Lessee, irrespective of negligence; and L6ssee shall carry
public liability and property damage insurance in such reason-
able amounts as may be determined by Board."
I understand that the widening of the roadways of the streets men-
tioned is to be accomplished by the removal of the existing sidewalks
which are now within the area of the respective streets and the con-
struction of new sidewalks within the limits of Union Square. The
cost of constructing the new sidewalks will be borne by the Union
Square Garage Corporation while it is proposed that the widening of
the streets shall he financed by municipal funds under the jurisdiction
of the Director of Public Works.
I have given particular attention to the language above quoted
from paragraph 10 of the Agreement and I can find nothing contained
in this section which would place upon the Garage Corporation the
4fi4 MONDAY, MARCH 30, 1942
liability tor widening the roadway of the respective streets. The city
would have a perfect right to widen roadways of these streets irre-
spective of the construction of the Garage and, while the widening
of the streets may be of some benefit to the Garage, they are l)eing
widened, not for the convenience of the Garage but to accommodate
the traffic upon the respective streets. Therefore, the street widening
is for a public purpose and not for the benefit of the Garage.
It appears from other ordinances which I have examined that the
necessary procedure was followed by the Director of Public Works and
by the Board of Supervisors to provide for the widening of the road-
ways of these streets. The same procedure has been followed as would
be followed in the widening of the roadway of any other street in the
city.
Paragraph 10 above quoted was apparently inserted in the Agree-
ment to protect the city against liability by reason of the construction
or operation of the garage. Note the pertinent language of the para-
graph above quoted:
"Lessee * * * covenants and agrees to indemnify and save
harmless the City and County of San Francisco, the Board,
their respective officers, agents and employees, from and against
any and all liability, loss and expense arising from injury to
or death of persons whosoever and loss of or damage to
property whatsoever occasioned in whole or in part by the acts
or omissions of Lessee * * * oj- resulting from or oc-
casioned by the construction of improvements or the occupa-
tion or operation of the demised promises by Lessee, irrespec-
tive of negligence; * * *"
As I have already said, the widening of the streets is not occasioned
and is not made necessary by the construction, occupation or operation
of the garage for the reason that the garage could have been constructed
and could be operated with the streets in their present condition.
Therefore, I am of the opinion that the city is not entitled to any
indemnity under paragraph 10 of the Agreement between the Board
of Park Commissioners and the Union Square Garage Corporation on
account of the widening of the roadways of the respective streets. You
are so advised.
I herewith return you the proposed appropriation ordinances making
the appropriation to finance the widening of these streets.
Very truly yours.

City Attorney.

acter of said emergency being the same as is set forth in Section 13 of
said above mentioned Ordinance No. 1448.
The following communication was presented and read by the Clerk.
Honorable Board of Supervisors March 23, 1942
City Hall
San Francisco, California
Deal- Supervisors:
I am herewith transmitting to you the following ordinances and
resolutions:
1 — An ordinance to amend Section 5 of the Civilian Defense Coun-
cil by providing for a Director of Operations and also making
provision for the position of Director of Civilian Defense
and providing for his qualifications.
2 — An ordinance providing for an appropriation of $1975 to care
for the salary of this position until June 30 of the present
year.
3 — An amendment of the Salary Ordinance to care for said posi-
tion.
4 — The recommendation of the Civil Service Commission that
the position of Director of Civilian Defense be exempted from
the residential qualifications of the Charter.
5^ — A resolution to be passed by your Board appi'oving the recom-
mendation of the Mayor and the Civil Service Commission in
exempting this position from the residential qualifications
provided for in Section 7 of the Charter.
MONDAY, MARCH 30, 1942 469
It is important that all these ordinances and resolutions should he
passed as emergency measures at the earliest possihle moment, for
reason that the existing emergency necessitates the position of Director
of Civilian Defense heing filled at once.
Chief Charles W. Dullea found that the work of Director of Civilian
Defense took so much of his time that his work as Chief of Police
was suffering.
I have made a careful survey to find a successor for Chief Dullea
and intend to select Mr. John E. Helms. Mr. Helms is an expert in
Civilian Defense. He is a graduate civil engineer skilled in his profes-
sion; has served as Regional Director of the Civilian Defense Council
of the western states and has been the head of the California State
Council of Civilian Defense. Therefore I can state positively to you
that Mr. Helms is qualified in every way to act as Director of Civilian
Defense for our local Defense Council. As a matter of fact, I believe
the City is extremely fortunate to be able to obtain the services of
Mr. Helms in this important position.
The reason for exempting the position from residential qualifications
is that up to a short time ago Mr. Helms was a resident of Palo Alto;
however, he has now taken up his residence in San Francisco, but as
a charter provision ordinarily requires a year's residence before a
person is eligible to be appointed to a position, I am asking the
exemption of the position from the residential qualifications provided
for in the Charter.
I trust that your Board will, after proper committee approving these
ordinances and resolutions, pass the same without delay, as it is ex-
tremely important that the position of Director of Civilian Defense
should not remain unfilled.
Very truly yours,
ANGELO J. ROSSI

Report from Registrar of Voters as to Date for Election
Supervisor Gallagher, after discussing the possibility of an election
date earlier than June 9, 1942, presented the following communication.
and requested that it made part of the record:
Honorable Dan Gallagher, March 24. 1942.
Board of Supervisors.
San Francisco.
Dear Sir:
I appreciate very much your view of the need of haste in arranging
the bond election. I am very willing to do my utmost in the matter. My
MONDAY, MARCH 30. 1942 473
statemtnt that June 9th is the earliest possible date is neither ob-
stinacy nor l)ased on a failure to appreciate the urgency of the. situa-
tion. Here are the facts.
The election is held in small groups of blocks — precincts.
Every voter's affidavit of registration must be in the proper precinct.
There must be an index to the affidavits of registration. We must mail
to each voter his sample ballot, official literature and polling place card
directing him where to vote not less than 15 days before election.
We have nearly 350.000 registi-ations. These have nearly all been
re-assembled in the new assembly districts and precincts. But the law
requires that we print an index to the registrations in each precinct.
The old copies will not do for the districts and precincts have been
very greatly changed and about 30 'c of the people listed have actually
moved from the addresses listed.
We are trying to get out copy for this index at the rate of 10.000
names a day. It will take about 32 working days to complete the copy,
which means May 6th or 7th. Completing the reading of proof will re-
quire two weeks, bringing the time up to May 20th. Then the actual
printing and delivery of the printed index wall take another week.
Following this we must stamp on the printed index the "moved" nota-
tion from undeliverable envelopes returned by the post-office, which
constitutes a challenge list. This brings the date to June 3rd. which
is in time for the indexes to be put in the precinct supply boxes for
delivery to the precinct election officers on Sunday, June 7th for the
election June 9th.
It is difficult to get typists for short period temporary work so I
cannot promise to speed up the preparation of copy. As a matter of
fact I am actually short handed on typists now.
I face similar diffiiculties in the machine addressing department.
Only by putting on two shifts can I get the work done in time for June
9th. We have only four machines and can get only women operators. I
have carefully estimated the daily output possible and the time schedule
for printing the envelopes from the corrected addressograph plates
and mailing the sample ballots, and I assure you that June 9th is the
earliest possible date that the job can be done.
The rent of polling places and the appointment of election officers
also presented problems of time. Polling places must be selected and
contracts for their rental signed in time for posting thirty days before
election. It takes about a month after we mail offers of contracts to
the owners of polling places to get them all signed. And that means
we have to send a man out to hunt down the laggards.
There are other problems of printing, preparation of voting machines,
etc. but the foregoing states sufficiently the obstacles to an earlier date
for the special election.
With best regards, I remain.
Yours very sincerely,
CAMERON H. KING,
Registrar of Voters.

vided for in Section 7 of the Charter.

Privilege of the Floor
Mr. Alfred Del Carlo, representing a group who were protesting the
appointment of Mr. Helms to the position of Director of Civilian De-
fense, and Mr. R. J. O'Rourke, President of San Francisco Property
Owners League, and representing Fusion Five, Inc.. also protesting
the appointment of Mr. Helms, suggested and urged that the residential
requirements of the Charter be not exempted. Both speakers recom-
mended the appointment of former Chief of Police. William J. Quinn
to the position. Mr. Quinn, they stated, had signified his willingness
to accept the position, without salary, other than the retirement
pension he is now receiving.
Chief of Police, Charles DuUea, recommended the adoption of the
foregoing Resolution and the appoiiitniciit of Mi'. Helms to the position
of Director of Civilian Defense.
Explanations of Votes
Supervisor Uhl announced his intention to vote for the Resolution
waiving the charter iisidential reqnirtMnents. If the position were to
be permanent, he would oppose the Ri'solution. However, it is not.
and because Mr. Helms is so highly recommended by the Chief of Police.
Mr. Theodore Roche, and others. Supervisor Uhl stated he would vote
for the Resolution.
Supei-visor Mead announced that although he had. in the past, op-
posed every proposal to residential reiiuirement, he would, in view
I
I
MONDAY, MARCH 30, 1942 481
of the many recommendations rtceived, vote "Aye" on the proposed
Resolution.
Supervisor Colman. also explained his vote, saying that he believed
the people are much more concerned with the capabilities and char-
acter of the Director of Civilian Defense than with his place of
residence. Mr. Helms is no foreigner; Burlingame and San Francisco
are practically parts of the same large community. Mr. Helms has
the recommendation of the leaders of the defense group. Chief of
Police Dullea. the Mayor, Mr. Brooks, Mr. John CahlU. all recommend
him as the best qualified man for the position. We want him.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the foregoing Resolution was

Resolved by the Board of Supervisors of the City and County of
San Francisco, as follows:
Section 1. That the public intei-est and necessity demand the acquisi-
tion, construction and completion of the following municipal improve-
ment of said City and County, to-wit: Improvement of the San Fran-
cisco Airport in San Mateo County, including additions thereto so as to
provide the necessary facilities for the landing and taking off and the

America and the Axis Powers renders it imperative that said improve-
ment be forthwith acquired, constructed and completed and that a
bonded indebtedness for that purpose be incurred therefor.
Section 5. This Resolution shall take effect immediately.
Explanations of Votes
Supervisor Gallagher explained that lie had objected to placing
the proposed Aii'port Bond nuitter on the same ballot with the Civilian
Defense bonds. He believed that no other matter should be placed on
the ballot for the June election. He would vote against the Resolution.
Supervisor .Mead slated that he believed the people could distinguish
between bonds for the Airport and other l)onds, and there would be
MONDAY, MARCH 30, 1942 483
no confusion. In view of the ciicumstances surrounding this bond
issue, and guided by the rt commendation of the Superintendent of the
Airport, he would vote for the Resolution.
Supervisor O'Gara announced that he was sympathetic toward
placing the Airport Bond proposal on the ballot, as he would be toward
any recommendation the Superintendent of the Aiiport might make.
But he had been informed there would be no newspaper support for
this proposed bond issue, and the down town interests will oppose it.
The bonds would, then, he believed, have but little chance of being
approved. He believed that confusion would result in placing the
Airport bond matter on the ballot along with bonds for Civilian Defense.
He would vote "No."
Refused Adoption
Thereupon, the roll was called and the foregoing Resolution was
Refused Adoption by the following" vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Mead, Meyer — 2.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman. Gallagher. MacPhee, O'Gara,
Roncovieri. Shannon. Uhl — S.
Absent: Supervisor Green — 1.
Discussion
Following the foregoing vote. Supervisor Brown stated that he had
not voted against the Resolution because he was opposed to the pro-
posed improvement. He suggested that the Board should not lose
touch with the situation, but try to work out some plan whereby the
proposed improvement can be financed without a bond issue.
The Chair referred the suggestion to the Streets Committee.
Supervisor Meyer, however, pointed out that the Joint Committee
which had heard the matter, was told that there must be a bond election
not later than June 9th. otherwise the road would be built where it
is at present, and there would be no chance in the future to do any-
thing in the matter.
Supervisor Green, who was absent from the chambers at the time
of the foregoing roll call, on his return announced that had he been
present he would have voted "No." and he desired the record so to
show.
Supervisor Roncovieri stated that he would like to have been able
to vote "Yes" on the matter of Airport bonds, but could not. The
State, he continued, owes San Francisco $247,000. because of federal
aid received for the construction of the Funston Avenue approach to
the Golden Gate Bridge. The City Attorney has been instructed to
bring suit for that amount, and he assures the Board that the City
will win the case. Therefore. Supei'visor Roncovieri suggested that
the Committee consider the fact and endeavor to compromise the
matter with the State, and that the Board pledges itself to place an
additional $250,000 in the coming budget, in order to provide for the
relocation of the Bayshore Highway as recommended by the Superin-
tendent of the Airport.
Supervisor Meyer, however, pointed out that the Committee had
been told that the matter of the Funston Avenue Approach has not
yet been concluded, and that until certain construction within the
Presidio has been completed, the books will not be closed.
The following recommendation of the Public Utilities Committee
was taken up:
Present: Supervisors Meyer and Roncovieri.

Approved as to form by the City Attorney.
Explanations of Votes
Supervisor MacPhee, in explaining his vote, stated that he had no
objection to voting for the foregoing Resolution in order to help out
the shipyard workers. However, in general, he would continue to
vote against such kind of legislation until the Market Street Railway
Company gets its roads into shape.
Supervisor O'Gara objected to the Resolution as presented, holding
that there was no definite limitation of time during which the Market
Street Railway Company might operate motor buses over the routes
described, the first ))aragraph granting permission "for the duration
of the war and national emergency . . ." There should be a definite
time beyond which the company might not operate under the terms of
the Resolution to be adopted.
Whereupon, the City Attoiney, to meet Supervisor O'Gara's objection,
suggested as an amendment that the words "a period not exceeding"
be inserted in the fourth line of the first paragraph, immediately
after the word "for," making that paragraph read as follows:
"Resolved, That Market Street Railway Company, a corporation,
be and it is hereby granted permission, revocable at the will of the
MONDAY. MARCH 30. 1942 485
Board of Supervisors, to operate motor coaches and to maintain and
operate a public passenger motor coach service for a period not ex-
ceeding the duration of tlie war and national emergency over, upon
and along the hereinafter descril)ed route in the City and County of
San Francisco. State of California, to-wit:"
No objection being made the amendment was accepted as part of
the Resolution.
Whereupon, the foregoing Resolution, amended as printed, was
Adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee,
Mead, Meyer, O'Gara, Roncovieri, Shannon, Uhl — 11.

ROLL CALL FOR THE INTRODUCTION OF RESOLUTIONS,
BILLS AND COMMUNICATIONS NOT CONSIDERED OR
REPORTED UPON BY A COMMITTEE.
Commercial and Industrial Development Committee Requested
to Investigate Possibility of Establishment of Tin Ore Smelting
Refinery in San Francisco.
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor Colmau presented Resolution No. 2.530, as follows:
Whereas, Tin is one of the strategic metals in America's war
economy, and
Whereas, The world's principal sources of tin except one now are
cut off fi-om the United States by the world war. and
Whereas, The single important source of tin ore now available to
the United States is in Bolivia, on the west coast of South America,
which source even in normal times is the nearest of the world's
large tin deposits to the United States and is reputed to be of such
extent and nature that it cannot easily be exhausted, and
Whereas, Heretofore this country has followed the practice of im-
porting tin refined in other countries from ores that could more econom-
ically be shipped to the United States for processing, and
Whereas, A federally financed smelter and refinery now is being
constructed in Texas, to which ore from Bolivia will have to be trans-
ported through the Panama Canal, and
Whereas, The California fruit and vegetable packing industries
constitute one of the largest if not the largest consumer of tin in the
United States, and
Whereas, California possesses an ever-increasing supply of electric
current for industrial uses besides its supplies of natural gas and fuel
oil, and
Whereas, Establishment of a tin smelter and refinery in this State
would serve both war and peace time demands of the eleven western
States without subjecting ore shipments to any hazards of dependency
upon the Panama Canal; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Commercial and Industrial Development .Com-
mittee of this Board be and is hereby directed to investigate the possi-
bilities of establishment of a tin ore smelting and refining plant at
San Francisco or some other location in the San Francisco Bay
Area, and to report its findings back to this Board at an early date.
Adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colmau, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee,
Mead, Meyer, O'Gara. Roncovieri, Shannon, Uhl — 11.

REPORT OF SUPERVISOR ROBERT M. GREEN MEETING
OF THE xMINERS ASSOCIATION OF CALIFORNIA
Supervisor Green presented:
As Chairman of the County, State and National Affairs Committee,
I proceeded to Sacramento on Thursday, March 26th to represent the
City and County of San Francisco at a meeting held jointly by the
Mining Association of California. On Thursday night I contacted
Mr. Albert Knorp, Chairman of the Association of Gold Miners of
California. I learned from him the nature and scope of the meeting.
Mr. Knorp informed me that very seldom in the past had San Fran-
ciso been represented at the mining conferences and expresed the
belief that a representative from San Francisco would certainly do
much to engender good will among those in the rural, mountain and
mining counties.
The meeting was called for 10 A. M. on the morning of Friday the
27th at the Native Sons Hall in Sacramento. Mr. Philip Bradley. Jr.,
a mine owner with holdings in many large California mines opened
the meeting. His talk was genei-al. He stated that the reason for the
meeting was the thought of collaboration between the mine owners in
respect to materials, machinery, etc., because of the fact that the
industry was facing a shortage of essential materials to conduct their
mines.
Mr. Bradley then presented Senator Jesse Mayo of Angels Camp,
who acted as Chairman of the meeting. The Senator told that the
industry merely wanted approximately 2.000 tons of steel to carry on
their operations in the Mother Lode. He stressed the point that their
requirements were very small in respect to other industries in the
State — in fact other industries will receive over 9 hundred million
dollars from the Federal Government as subventions during the war
period. Senator Mayo stated that the meeting was not a protest
meeting; that as we were engaged in a total war, the mining industry
had pledged itself to support the Government fully, even to the extent
of going out of business itself. He further said that the gold mining
industry had been pushed down to the bottom on priorities and that
he and those present desired, considering the small amount of money
and material that they desired, to petition the Federal Government to
keep the mines open during the war period.
Senator Mayo declared that if the mining industry, particularly gold
mining, is done away with during the war that very many will lose
jol)s. He stated that the whole economic l)a('kl)one of many of the
inountain districts such as Amador County, Mariposa County, Tuo-
MONDAY, MARCH 30, 1942 497
lumne County and others, is the mining industry. He pointed out
that school districts would have to be done away with and also the
important point that once a mine is closed it is very hard to reopen.
He gave several examples of mines that were closed during the first
world's war and said that they were never reopened because of the
initial expenses. To sum it up the reason for the meeting was to try
to find out a way to continue normal operations in the mining industry.
Senator Mayo then threw the meeting open to general discussion.
Supervisor Minzel of Mariposa presented a resolution passed by the
Board of Supervisors of Mariposa County. The Supervisor reiterated
Senator Mayo's statements that the Government comes first; that every
one in his county is depeiident upon the mine; that all they wanted
was to continue normal operations and ask for very little to do so.
The Chairman of the Board of Supervisors of Amador County then
spoke and his general theme was the same as the representative of
Mariposa County and Senator Mayo. He spoke from the standpoint of
a higher tax rate in case mine operations should l)e discontinued and
said that his county would perhaps become bankrupt.
Senator Mayo then called upon myself. He congratulated San
Francisco on having sent a representative to the mining conference.
He introduced me and stated that he felt that San Francisco had, for
too many years, been looking to the West and forgetting that the
great backbone of its wealth could be the rural and mining counties.
I talked briefly, stating that I had been authorized to say that in
view of the very reasonable amount that the industry desired and the
fact that San Francisco desired to re-establish amicable relations with
the back counties that we w^ould work hand in hand with the mining
conference to obtain from the War Production Board priorities that
they requested.
Mr. Edward Regan, District Attorney of Trinity County, then spoke.
"Mining is the life blood of Trinity County. We know that we are at
war but every person in the County is dependent upon the mines. If
the mines were to close during the war it would mean economic ruin
to Trinity County."
Supervisor Hunter of Tuolumne County was called upon by Senator
Mayo. He said that they had the same problems as Mariposa County
and if the mines were closed down in his county it would take over
20 years to reopen them as they had experienced the same problem
after the last war.
Next Speaker was the Dean of Mines of the University of California.
He talked at length. The gist of his talk was that we had invested
22 millions of dollars in gold and that it is the basis of our economic
and credit system. He explained that gold mine industry, contrary
to public opinion, is not venturesome and is very stable. He believed
that it was very l)ad psychology to interfere with our basic belief that
gold is the basis of our economic structure. He talked about morale
and the number of people our mining camps had sent into the armed
forces. He said that it would be bad for a boy in the Army or Navy
to learn that his family was put out of work and on relief as a result
of the shutting down of the mines. He stated that it is very costly to
shut down the mines and that only 1 out of 10 would reopen. He then
went into a technical discourse as to the thought of pumping water
out of the mines, cost of reopening, etc.
Mr. Banks from Amador County then spoke. He also stated that
if the mines closed that they would not reopen. He also said that the
mines were very effective in respect to the war effort. He talked
about mines in forest areas. He said that these men volunteered to
help in protecting communities from forest fires. He said that gold is
the anchor to stop inflation ; it is the corner stone of the United States
and all of our allied nations. It is the personification of our wealth.
He said that the mines are doing their part to supply men for our
National Defense Works. They have put up training schools where
498 MONDAY, MARCH 30, 1942
the trainees are trained in a technical trade and later on they go to
the shipyards and other places where they do National Defense work.
Mr. Burgess of the Carson Hill Mines was the next speaker. He
stated that there were no longer farms in Calaveras County and that
the people depended upon the mines. He said that $300,000 was paid
out in wages last year in hiR mine alone. He stated that more than
25% of the people of Angels Camp had gone to the war and that they
were employing older men who have been in the mining business for
many years. As a result of this many people have been taken off of
the relief rolls of the State of California.
Frank Tower then spoke. He is an individual mine owner. His
plea was to maintain the status quo regardless if the mines would
make any profit during the war. He said that all he wanted to do was
to keep the water out of the mine so that at the end of the present
peiiod they could take up where they left off. He talked about co-
operation between mine owners in respect to using materials l)etween
themselves with the thought of lessening the amount that they would
ultimately ask for from the Federal Government.
Mr. Robert Searles. an attorney from San Francisco, then spoke.
He had just arrived from Washington and he talked with Dr. Wilbur
Nelson and Representative Englebright also Mr. Conover of the Ameri-
can Mining Congress. He appeared before the Ways and Means
Committee of the Federal Congress on behalf of the miners of Cali-
fornia. He stated that there is a bottle-neck in steel but that the
Government ought to set an example for the reason that new steel
buildings were in the process of construction. His very practical
suggestion was that the Gold Mining Industry assemble their facts
and other conditions; to send out a questionnaire in respect to how
much they need and that he or some other representative could present
it to the Government. He discussed further about the pooling of re-
sources and said that there should be an intra-industry cooperative
plan and there should also be a plan for regional cooperative groups
who would pool their resources and learn to lend to one another the
machinery that one had that some other mine owner might not have.
Senator Oddie. formerly Senator from Nevada, was called upon. He
stated that the public knows little of the economics of gold. He re-
iterated what former speakers had said that our economic structure
has been and will be based upon gold. He said that the gold industry
will supplement the war effort.
James Moore, representative of the Miners Protective League of
Grass Valley, was called unon to state the employees' view in respect
to the industry. He added that 40 percent of the population in his
district was engaged in the war industries and that the older men
were being given employment that they have not had for years. He
also said that employers and employees are working closer together
than ever before.
I talked with Bill Losh of the Regional Service Committee and
after the morning meeting talked with several of the mine pwners.
I was amazed to find that most of their equipment comes from Los
Angeles rather than from San Francisco. One miner told me that he
had just placed a $100,000 order with a Los Angeles outfit. They
expressed the view that they are closer to San Francisco and it would
be easier for them to get what they wanted from San Francisco but,
as they put it, "You have to do business with your friends."
The leason for this was that it seems that Los Angeles through its
Chamber of Commerce or the Board of Supervisors continually have
agents traveling through the gold mining fields of California and thus
received thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, of dollars that could
be given to San Francisco if we were to be more cooperative with the
gold mine districts.
I attended the afternoon session but there is little to report on there-
from as the meeting siilil up into small committee meetings to deter-
MONDAY. MARCH 30, 1942 499
mine the best way of grouping in the various localities in the State in
respect to loaning, trading and exchange of machinery for the purpose
of economy in the industry.
*
It is my recommendation that San Francisco actively cooperate with
the mining industry, whose demands are very small, so that they
might continue to operate during the period of the emergency.
Respectfully submitted,
ROBERT M. GREEN
Ordered printed in full in the Journal of Proceedings.
Appointment of Supervisor Robert Miller Green as Member of
Regional Service Committee
The President of the Board, Supervisor Jesse C. Colman, following
the presentation of the foregoing report, expressed his appreciation,
and the appreciation of the Board, for Supervisor Green's excellent
representation at Sacramento. The President announced, also, that
he had appointed Supervisor Green as a meml)er of the Regional
Service Committee. That committee is most important. The cost of
creating good will is very slight, but it will pay large dividends.
Conservation of Man-Power, Materials and Supplies for Early
Consummation of the War
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor MacPhee presented Resolution No as follows:
Whereas. At the meeting of the National Association of County
Officials held in Washington. D. C. on March 9th and 10th. 1942. Mr.
]\Iaury Maverick. Chief of the Governmental Requirements Bureau
made the fololwing statement: "Every man. woman and child in
Germany. Italy and Japan are working hard and spending their time
trying to figure out ways to make slaves of us;" and
Whereas, At the same meeting, the following remarks were made by
Mr. Leon Henderson. Administrator of the Office of Price Administra-
tion: "The Germans and Japanese have for many years past devoted
more than fifty per cent of their effort for war goods and training of
soldiers. At the end of 1941 the United States was using twenty to
twenty-two per cent of our resources for war effort. When we get to
forty per cent, which we will do in the latter part of 1942. we will
equal the combined war effort of the Germans, Italians and Japanese;"
and
Whereas. It is obvious from the statements of such authorities that
culmination of this War in Victory for the Allies demands full, intense
and immediate concentration on the War effort with the attendant
requisites of strict conservation of man-power for war-production
industries and rigid economies in the use of materials and supplies
which are non-essential to the war effort: and
Whereas. Because any thinking person is cognizant of the fact that
the longer this War is permitted to continue because of lack of man-
power in vital industries and because of lack of the essential materials
necessary in the conduct of the War. the greater will be the number
of killed and wounded among our American boys and their Allies, it
is imperative as a patriotic duty and as a humane and decent con-
sideration of our defenders, that expeditious and efficient effort be
made to make available the necessary man-power and materials for the
successful conduct of the war, for early victory by the Allies, and
what is paramount, for the protection and preservation of our national
youth ; and
Whereas. It would be exemplary, inspiring and contagious were the
municipal corporation which is the City and County of San Francisco,
to lead the crusade for immediate, and conscientious adherence to a
program of economy in man-power as well as materials and supplies;
now. therefore, be it
500 MONDAY, MARCH 30, 1942
Resolved. That this Board of Supervisors does hereby appeal to
the various commissions, boards and departments of the municipal
government of San Francisco and in particular to the rank and file
of municipal employees and does urge witlt all the enthusiasm and
persuasion of which it is capable that in an all-out endeavor to con-
sei've man-power, matei'ials and supplies for the early consummation
of this War in a complete victory for the United States and its Allies
and to blaze the trail for similar activities on the part of the manage-
ment and personnel of private industry and business, full, voluntary
and enthusiastic cooperation be accorded the proposal set forth in this
resolution, namely, "Serve by Saving."
Referred to Public Health and Welfure Coninrittee.
Requesting Civil Service Commission for Report as to Effect of
Proposed Amendments to Classification Schedules Submitted by
Said Commission for Positions in the "D," "L," "P," "R," "T,"
and "U" Classifications of the Municipal Service.
(Series of 1939)
The Finance Committee presented Resolution No. 2529, as follows:
Whereas, The Civil Service Commission has proposed salaries to be
paid to "D," "L," "P," "R." "T." and "U" Classifications in the Muni-
cipal employ; and
Whereas, It has been proposed that the Board of Supervisors amend
some of the schedules proposed by the Civil Service Commission; now-,
therefore, be it
Resolved, That in accordance with Section 151 of the Charter, and
with respect to the following list of proposed changes, the Civil Service
Commission is requested for a report "as to what other changes and the
cost thereof such proposed amendment would require to maintain an
equitable relationship with other rates in such schedule:"

Requesting Civil Service Committee for Report on Change of
Rate in Salary Schedule for J112, Supervisor of Street Cleaning
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor Mead presented Resolution No , as follows:
Resolved. That the Hoard of Supervisors respectfully requests the
Civil Service Commission to submit a report on change of rate in
salary schedule for J112 Supervisor of Street Cleaning, which involves
restoration of the maximum rate carried for this position in the Of-
ficial Brown and Green Books for nearly eight years and which was
reduced in haste by the Commission in May of 1941; but which request
is in conformity with the Civil Service Commission Resolution adopted
three months later on August 13, 1941 and which reads as follows:
"Resolved, that when a revision of the salary standarization
schedule now incorporated in the oidinance of the Board of
Supervisoi's for Class J112 Supervisor of Street Cleaning, is
i-ecommended, the Civil Service Commission will propose a
higher schedule, namely, $300-$400 per month."
Referred to Finance Com Drittee.
Urging Provision for Issuance of Delayed Birth Certificate
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor Meyer presented Resolution No. 2527, as follows:
Whereas, Many hundreds of native San Franciscans are required to
prove their nativity due to the war emergency, as well as for pension,
passport and other purposes; and
Whereas, Many hundreds of our citizens are unable to obtain em-
ployment on defense projects because of their inability to furnish
birth certificates: and
Whereas, All birth records in San Francisco were destroyed in the
fire of April 18, 1906; and
Whereas, The Federal government in a joint statement dated July
27. 1941, from the Army, Navy and Commerce Departments proposed
that all States take immediate steps to issue Delayed Birth Certificates
to establish the births of millions of citizens who would thus be
eligible for defense jobs; and
Whereas. A Bill proposing an amendment to the State law was pre-
sented to the Assembly of the State of California at the last regular
session providing for a simplified and inexpensive means of issuing
Delayed Birth Certificates, and upon which no action was then taken:
and
Whereas, This Board of Supei'visors believes that due to the seri-
ousness of the situation created by the inability of our local Registrar
of Vital Statistics to issue Delayed Birth Certificates to those persons
having need for same and whose original records of birth were de-
stroyed in the fire of 190(5. some facile and economical procedure for
the estal)lishment of such births should be i)rovided; now. therefore,
be it
Resolved, That this Board of Supervisors does hereby recommend
and urge, if a special session of the Legislature is called for any pur-
pose, that Goveinoi- Olson include in his proclamation the subject of
Delayed Biith Certificates so that this matter may be acted upon at the
earlitst possible date; and be it
Further Resolved, That a copy ol this i-esolution be forthwith tians-
mitted to his Excellency, the Governor of the State of Califoi-iiia, and
to each membei- of the State Legislature from the City and ('ounty of
San Francisco.
Adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Cohnan, (iallagher, tJreen, MacPhee.
Mead, Meyer, O'Gara, Roncovieri, Shannon, Uhl — 11.
MONDAY, MARCH 30. 1942 509
Requesting Salary Standardization Report for Dairy Inspectors
and Related Classifications.
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor Gallagher presented Resolution No , as follows:
Resolved. That the Civil Service Commission he and it is herehy
requested to furnish this Board with revised salary standardization
schedules for the classification of N64, Dairy Inspector and related
classifications.
Referrfd to Finance Committee.
Governor Urged to Call Special Session of Legislature to enact
Legislation for Establishment of Adequate State Guard.
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor O'Gara presented Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas. The Adjutant General of the State of California has de-
clared the law under which the California State Guard now is being
reorganized to be impractical, and
Whereas. Said law limits the size of the active, mobile foi-ce of the
State Guard to 9.380 men. which number has been declared to be in-
adequate for proper defense of California's vital public and private in-
stallations, and
Whereas. The Commanding General of the Western Defense Command
has warned that federal troops now protecting such installations may
be withdrawn at any time for combat services, and
Whereas. Such a withdrawal would leave the vital industries, com-
munications and utilities of San Francisco and adjacent areas virtually
at the mercy of our enemies and their agents, and
Whereas. The Chief of Staff of the United States Army has stated
that the duty of protecting such installations falls within the scope
of the police powers of local governments and is not the duty of the
United States Army, and
Whereas, Because of the Chief of Staff's attitude there is little pos-
sibility of obtaining federal legislation establishing a home guard for
months to come, and
Whereas. Meanwhile the people of the City and County of San
Francisco will remain in the direst peril in their history because of
lack of adequate protection, and
Whereas. Immediate action by the Legislature of the State of Cali-
fornia to enact proper legislation establishing an adequate State
Guard appears as the only means of averting such peril, now, therefore,
be it
Resolved. That we. the Board of Supervisors of the City and County
of San Francisco do hereby respectfully urge his Excellency. Culbert
L. Olson. Governor of the State of California, to call immediately a
special session of the Legislature of the State of California for the
exclusive purpose of enacting legislation for the establishment of an
adequate State Guard, voting appropriations for the maintenance
thereof, and enacting such corollary legislation as may be necessary,
and, be it
Further Resolved. That we respectfully urge the members of the
Legislature, in responding to such a call, and any and all persons con-
cerned with the issuance of that call or the response thereto, to free
themselves from all political bias, prejudice and ambition that might
impair the speediest enactment of legislation for the establishment
of an adequate State Guard, and. be it
Further Resolved. That we further respectfully urge the members of
the Legislature to be guided solely by the advice of competent, politi-
cally disinterested military experts in determining the size, constitu-
tion and equipment of such a State Guard; and be it
510 MONDAY, MARCH 30, 1942
Further Resolved, That copies of this Resolution be sent to the Gov-
ernor and to the individual members of the Legislature.
Referred to Joint Police, and County, State and National Affairs
Committee.

Establishment of Emergency Hospital to Serve Park-Presidio-
Richmond District
(Series of 1939)
Supervisors Shannon and Green presented Resolution No
as follows:
Whereas. For many years, the people of the Park-Presidio and
Richmond Districts have sought the establishment of an emergency
hospital, and
Whereas. This area constitutes one of the most populous districts
in San Francisco, and
•Whereas. Aside from accidents occurring in the homes and other
types of injui'ies. there were in the year 1941. 1014 automobile accidents
in the district referred to. involving 411 persons injured and 6 persons
killed, and
Whereas. In the year 1941. approximately 3.000 persons from the
Park-Presidio-Richmond District were treated at the Park-Emergency
Hospital, necessitating 1260 ambulance calls, and
Whereas. Because the Park Emergency Hospital is equipped with
but one ambulance, to complete the aforesaid calls required the services,
with attendant delays, of ambulances from other Emergency Hospitals
as follows: Alemany — 20, Central — 43, Harbor — 7, and
Whereas. It is inimical to the health of this greast populace and
violative of that decent consideration to which they, with the people
of other districts, are properly entitled, to ignore or fail to comply
any longer with their plea for the establishment of a conveniently
located Emergency Hospital, for financial or any other reason, now.
therefore, be it
Resolved. That the Director of Public Health, the Chief Administra-
tive Officer and his Honor the Mayor be and they are hereby respect-

gency Hospital to serve the people of and the area comprising the

Consideration of motion by Supervisor Uhl that the hour of 2:00 P.M.

relative to his activities in Washington, D. C.
Pursuant to motion by Supervisor Uhl, Mr. E. G. Cahill appeared

DEFENSE PLANT CORPORATION
WASHINGTON, D. C.
March 20, 1942.
Public Utilities Commission,
City and County of San Francisco
San Francisco, California.
Gentlemen :
ATTN: Mr. E. G. Cahill, Manager of Utilities
In accordance with the proposal made by E. G. Cahill, Manager of
Utilities, Defense Plant Corporation is willing to proceed immediately
to enter into negotiations with the Public Utilities Commission of the
City and County of San Francisco, for approximately 100,000 kilowatts
of power to serve the proposed aluminum smelting plant, having a ca-
pacity of 96.000,000 pounds of aluminum per year, to be constructed
by Defense Plant Corporation at or near Modesto, California, upon
the understanding that such power will be delivered at 110,000 volts,
3 phase, 60 cycles at a daily load factor of approximately 97% and
at a rate of 4.878 mills per kilowatt hour.
It is further understood that the City and County of San Fi'ancisco
will have to obtain approximately 20,000 kilowatts of power from the
( 517 )
518 MONDAY. APRIL 6. 1942
Pacific Gas and Electric Company to be in a position to furnish the
requirements of the proposed plant.
We further understand that the contract to be negotiated will contain
a provision permitting Defense Plant Corporation to cancel the contract,
without penalties, upon 30-days' notice in writing.
Very truly yours,
SAM H. HUSBANDS,
President.
The Defense Plant Corporation, continued Mr. Cahill. insists on
a thirty day cancellation clause. The proposal does not settle, of
course, what is to be done with Hetch Hetchy power in the future,
but it does assure San Francisco of a market for its power until
thirty days beyond the duration of the war.
In conclusion, and after replying to the questions by several of
the members of the Board, Mr. Cahill agreed that there is no contract
yet for the disposal of Hetch Hetchy power, but he felt sure there
would be.
Whereupon, Supervisor Colman assured Mr. Cahill that San Francisco
is deeply gratified over the arrangements to be made.

Explanations of Votes
Supervisor Uhl. in explanation of his vote, stated that he looked
upon the foregoing as piecemeal standardization, to which he w^as
opposed. He was, however, agreeable to remedying the error affect-
ing certain classifications which had been called to the Board's atten-
tion, but that correction was tied in with "piecemeal standardization,"
so he would vote "No" on the entire matter.
Supervisor Brown announced his intention of voting against the
foregoing matter for the same reasons as advanced by Supervisor Uhl.
Mr. Harry S. Young, former President of the San Francisco Bar
Association, and on behalf of that Association, recommended approval
of the foregoing Bill.
Supervisor O'Gara, who also opposed "piecemeal standardization,"
moved to postpone consideration until all the Finance Committee
recommendations on salary standardization are before the Board.
Following his motion, but before the roll was called thereon. Super-
visor O'Gara expressed agreement with statements by Mr. Young, par-
ticularly as applicable to Superior Court clerks. Superior Court
clerks are at present receiving less salary than are Municipal Court
clerks. That is wrong; the duties of Superior Court clerks are more
important, in his opinion, that the duties of the lower Court's clerks.
However, he was not in a position to vote for the foregoing Bill
without first hearing and considering the rest of the Finance Com-
mittee's recommendations. He also called attention to the action by
the President of the United States who, on Saturday, April 4, 1942,
had vetoed a proposal to increase pay of postoffice employees and to
establish a system of longevity pay, stating that this is no opportune
time for such kind of legislation. The President's statement applies
equally well to the measure now before the Board. The natural re-
action of the people would be to say "No" against pay raises, and
this should not be passed to them. It is the Supervisors' job.
Supervisor O'Gara, in continuing, stated that in every case where
an injustice is being done to any employee he would vote for an in-
crease in pay. Further, in every case where it is shown that depart-
ment heads state they cannot keep their employees at the rate of pay
now being paid, he would vote for an increase, but as to the general
idea of pay increases, he did not think it was the right time nor the
proper thing to do now. For those leasons he was requesting the
Board to defer their consideration until the whole story of pay in-
creases is before it.
524 MONDAY. APRIL 6, 1942
Supervisor Uhl explained that liis vote was complimentary, but
that he was in full agreement with everything Supervisor O'Gara
had said. He, too, was in favor of adjusting and correcting any in-
justice. If the Superior Court Judges will recommend in the budget,
proper pay increases, he would not oppose them. Also, the salary of
the Superintendent of the Auditorium can be adjusted, but the way to do
it is in the budget.
The City Attorney, in reply to questioning, stated that no amounts
set up in the 1930 Report can be increased in the budget.
Motion Carried
Whereupon, the motion for a week's postponement was
Carried by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, O'Gara, Uhl — 6.
Noes: Supervisors MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, Roncovieri, Shannon — 5.
Action Rescinded
Subsequent to the foregoing action. Supervisor Green announced
that he had misunderstood the purport of the motion. He now under-
stood that what Supervisor O'Gara had in mind would mean bringing
in all sorts of standardization. That, he believed, would be going too
far. He would, therefore, move that the foregoing action be rescinded
in order that he might change his vote.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Shannon.
Whereupon, the roll was called and the previous action was rescinded
by the following vote:

tor of Property advertised in the official newspaper that bids or offers

All of that certain land acquired by the City and County of

"Whereas, In response to said advertisement the Housing Authority

of the balance of the purchase price.
Recommended by the Director of Property.
Approved as to form by the City Attorney.
Discussion
Supervisor Brown announced his opposition to any further extension
of 'iow cost housing." These projects not only remove certain prop-
erties from the tax roll, but they create a very definite competition to
the existing apartment house industry. Furthermore, "low cost hous-
ing" is not now confined to those in the low income brackets.
Supervisor MacPhee, in reply, pointed out that the matter of com-
petition was not before the Board, nor was the question of removing
property from the tax rolls. This property which is proposed to be
sold is owned by the City and County, is not on the tax roll now. and
consequently the question of its removal from the tax roll does not
apply to it.
Supervisor Meyer announced that he would vote against the Bill.
He had voted against accepting money from the Housing Authority
in lieu of taxes because it was only one-half of what would have been
received had the various dwelling units been fully occupied. At the
present time one-half of the units are still vacant, and he could not
understand why more should be built, under the circumstances.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the foregoing Bill was
Adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead, O'Gara,
Shannon, Uhl— 8.
No: Supervisor Meyer — 1.
Absent: Supervisors Brown, Roncovieri — 2.

Endorsing Policy of Placing per Diem Workers on Monthly Salary
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, For some time past there have been various meetings and
conferences among the employees of the City and County of San Fran-
cisco working under the jurisdiction of the Department of Public Works
whose compensation is fixed on a per diem basis, which conferences
were held for the purpose of providing overtime compensation for said
employees during the present fiscal year; and
Whereas, Said employees agreed that if they were compensated at
overtime rates for the present fiscal year, they would be willing to have
the method of compensation changed from a per diem basis to a
monthly salary commencing July 1, 1942, said monthly compensation
to be based in accordance with the provisions of Section 151 of the
Charter, and that when said compensation was so fixed on a monthly
salary no claim would be made for compensation for overtime provided
that equal time off would be allowed for overtime served; and
Whereas, It appears to this Board of Supervisors that it is for the
benefit of the City and County of San Francisco and for the betterment
of the several departments in which said employees are employed that
the method of said employment be changed from a per diem basis to
a monthly salary commencing July 1, 1942, the said monthly compensa-
tion of said employees to be determined as provided in Section 151 of
the Charter; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors does hereby declare itself
to be in favor of placing said employees hereinabove mentioned on
monthly salary for the fiscal year commencing July 1. 1942, said
monthly salary to be computed as set forth in Section 151 of the
Charter.
Privilege of the Floor
Mr. William H. Naniy, of the Buieau of Governmental Research, on
being granted the privihgo of the floor, on motion by Supervisor
O'Crara, aftei- reading the second "Whereas" of the foregoing Resolution,
held that the policy of the proposed change was predicated on that
"Whereas," and that the Resolution, if adopted in its present form,
would commit the Board of Supervisors, as a whole, to a policy still
l)eiiig considered by the Finance Committee, i. e.. the payment of over-
time ])ay lor the regular shift work that is being woiked during this
(current fiscal year. The question of overtime pay has been Ijcfore the
Hoard annually for several years, and the Bureau has always opposed it.
The Bureau believes it illegal to pay overtime pay, inasmuch as it
constitutes an increase of compensation during the fiscal year.
MONDAY, APRIL 6, 1942 531
Supervisor MacPhee. in reply to Mr. Nanry, announced tliat the
question of overtime had been before the Finance Committee, and had
received careful consideration by that Committee, for about eight
weeks. For the past 30 years overtime pay has been granted to city
employees. The Committee, also, feels that the procedure has been
wrong and that the per diem employees should be put on a monthly
basis, but is interested in seeing that things are handled fairly for
everyone. The adoption of this Resolution will actually save money
for the City. Per diem men will be put on a monthly basis and further
overtime pay will be eliminated.
The Chief Administrative Officer, in reply to questioning, stated
that his objection was to overtime pay for regular duty. He did not
object, though, to overtime pay for work performed in addition to
the regular week's work. He had no objection to placing the per diem
men on a monthly basis. However, in the Resolution, retroactive pay-
ment for overtime is indicated. To that he was opposed.
Supervisor Uhl supported the Resolution, pointing out that the
conditions now obtaining will be corrected. As to the payment of
overtime already earned, that is no more than right. The per diem
men. in the future, are giving up all claim to overtime pay.
Mr. James Ricketts and Mr. John Leonard, both representing various
per diem employees, urged the adoption of the Resolution, as presented:
Whereupon, the roll was called and the resolution was
Adopted by the following vote.
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara,
Roncovieri, Shannon, Uhl — 9.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman — 2.

Resolved, That in accordance with Section 151 of the Charter, and

Governor Urged to Call Special Session of Legislature to enact
Legislation for Establishment of Adequate State Guard.
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No. 2541, as follows:
Whereas, The Adjutant General of the State of Califoi-nia has de-
clared the law under which the California State Guard now is being
reorganized to be impractical, and
Whereas, Said law limits the size of the active, mobile force of the
State Guard to 9,380 men. which num))er has been declared to be in-
adequate for proper defense of California's vital public and private in-
stallations, and
Whereas, The Commanding (Jeneral of the Western Defense Command
has warned that federal troops now protecting such installations may
be withdrawn at any time for combat services, and
Wliereas, Such a withdrawal would leave the vital industries, com-
munications and utilities of San Francisco and adjacent areas virtually
at the mercy of our enemies and their agents, and
Whereas, The Chief of Staff of the United States Army has stated
that the duty of protecting such installations falls within the scope
MONDAY, APRIL 6, 1942 539
of the police powers of local governments and is not the duty of the
United States Army, and
Whereas, Because of the Chief of Staff's attitude there is little pos-
sibility of obtaining federal legislation establishing a home guard for
months to come, and
Whereas, Meanwhile the people of the City and County of San
Francisco will remain in the direst peril in their history because of
lack of adequate protection, and
Whereas, Immediate action by the Legislature of the State of Cali-
fornia to enact proper legislation establishing an adequate State
Guard appears as the only means of averting such peril, now, therefore,
be it
Resolved, That we, the Board of Supervisors of the City and County
of San Francisco do hereby respectfully urge his Excellency, Culbert
L. Olson, Governor of the State of California, to call immediately a
special session of the Legislature of the State of California for the
exclusive purpose of enacting legislation for the establishment of an
adequate State Guard, voting appropriations for the maintenance
thereof, and enacting such corollary legislation as may be necessary,
and, be it
Further Resolved, That we respectfully urge the members of the
Legislature, in responding to such a call, and any and all persons con-
cerned with the issuance of that call or the response thereto, to free
themselves from all political bias, prejudice and ambition that might
impair the speediest enactment of legislation for the establishment
of an adequate State Guard, and, be it
Further Resolved, That we further respectfully urge the members of
the Legislature to be guided solely by the advice of competent, politi-
cally disinterested military experts in determining the size, constitu-
tion and equipment of such a State Guard; and be it
Further Resolved, That copies of this Resolution be sent to the Gov-
ernor and to the individual members of the Legislature.
Adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead,
Meyer, O'Gara, Roncovieri, Shannon, Uhl — 11.

000; and
Whereas, The City and County of San Francisco would be financially

Whereas, Demolition or damage to either bridge would be a severe
military blow and would cripple civilian defense and evacuation ac-
tivities in the event of an enemy air or sea attack on San Francisco

Whereas, Both bridges are in imminent danger of sabotage of Fifth
Column attack; and
Whereas, Both bridges are now inadequately guarded; now, there-

550 MONDAY, APRIL 6, 1942
The immediate providing of additional transportation for workers
engaged in defense industries is important to the successful conclusion
of the present national emergency which threatens the safety of the
people of the City and County of San Francisco as well as all other
parts of the United States. The immediate furnishing of additional
transportation facilities involves the welfare of the people of the City
and County generally because of a change in their mode of transporta-
tion due to the rationing of automobiles and automobile tires and
accessories and the restrictive use of the privately owned automobile
which are also important to the successful conclusion of said national
emergency.
Approved by the Mayor.
Recommended l)y the Manager of Utilities.
Approved as to funds available by the Controller.
Approved as to form by the City Attorney.
Supervisor Uhl, in discussing the foregoing Bill, announced that
he had no objection to the purchases of twenty buses, as provided for
therein, but did object to the purchase of any "trolley buses." He
would go along with the purchase of buses to take employees to the
shipyards, because he believed the need for such transportation con-
stituted a real emergency. The purchase of ten trackless trolleys
for use on Union Street, he held, was not an emergency matter. He
desired the two proposals to be segregated so he might vote on them
separately.
Mr. E. G. Cahill; Manager of Utilities, in reply to questioning by
Supervisor Gallagher, stated his reasons for recommending the pur-
chase of trackless trolleys for the "E" line of the Municipal Railway,
as follows:
1. The "E" Line has very old track and requires complete recon-
struction east of Van Ness. That will cost some $288,000, and it must
be done or the line must be abandoned.
2. The lower portion ot the "E" Line will be re-routed, giving serv-
ice through the financial district to the bridge terminal.
3. The "E" Line has lost $40,000 in eight months of the current fiscal
year, or a total of $60,000 per year. Trolley buses will pick up that
loss and make a profit. Based on the operation of trackless trolleys on
Howard Street and South Van Ness Avenue, the operation of the "E"
Line will be far more financiall.v favorable to the City.
4. The substitution of trolley buses on the "E" Line will free 13
cars for use on other overcrowded lines.
Supervisor Uhl, thereupon, repeated his ol)jections to the purchase
of trackless trolleys, and attempted to inquiie of Mr. L. V. Newton.
Vice-President, Market Street Railway Company, why that company
was not purchasing trolley buses.
The Chair, however, sustained a point of order raised by Supervisor
Mead, ruling that such questioning was out of order.
After further brief discussion by Supervisor Uhl, the roll was called
and the foregoing Bill was
Finally Passed by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Blown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead,
Meyei-, O'Gara, Roncovieii, Shannon — 10.
No: Supervisor Uhl — 1.

Amendments
Supervisor Shannon called attention in Rule 1, the proposal to elect a
Vice President of the Board, to serve in the absence or inability of the
President to perform the functions of his office, and further reference
to the proposed Vice President in Rule 8 and in Rule 9, and moved
that all reference to "Vice Piesident" be stricken out from the Rules.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Roncovieri.
Discussion
President Colman, in discussing the motion, stated that the provision
for the election of a Vice President had been set up in the proposed
rules at the suggestion of the Chief Assistant Clerk, Mr. McGrath, who
had called the committee's attention to the need for somebody to fulfill
the President's functions during any al)sence of the President. The
Rules Committee, in drafting the proposed rules, believed it would be
a good idea to have the office created. However, that is a matter of
opinion, and should be decided by the entire Board.
Supeivisor Mead held that he could see no real purpose in setting up
the proposed office. The creation of the office might prove embarrassing
later on. The Vice President would automatically be in line for the
Presidency of the Board, in case of a change in the Board. Whenever
the need arises the Board can select a temporary Chairman, as it
has done in the past.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the motion to strike out all refer-
ence to the office of "Vice President" was carried by the following vote:
MONDAY, APRIL 13, 1942 573
Ayes: Supervisors MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, Roncovieri, Shannon,
Ulil— 6.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green O'Gara — 5.
Thereupon. Supervisor Roncovieri suggested that further consider-
ation be postponed until Monday, April 20, 1942, at 3:00 P. M.
However, on objection to postponement being raised. Supervisor
Roncovieri withdrew his objection, the roll was called, and the Rules
of the Board, amended to read as follows, were
Adopted by the following vote:
RULES OP ORDER OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No. 2568, as follows:
Resolved, That the rules hereinafter set forth be and the same are

Discussion
Supervisor Shannon, in discussing the foregoing Bill, announced
that there seemed to be some niisapi)reluMisi()ii about the matter: there
was a feeling that a man voluntarily enlisting in the militai'y services
would not be eligible for reappointment to his position, whereas a man
drafted into the services would bo eligible. However, there seems to
l)e no basis for that misapprehension, so he. Supervisor Shannon,
would not object to its passage.
Supervisor Roncovieri, who at first objected to the Rill, and sug-
gested that it be amended to take care of certificated employees of
the Board of Rducation, as well as the uncertificated employtes. on
being informed by tlie City Attorney that the Hoard of Supervisors
MONDAY, APRIL 13, 1942 589
had no jurisdiction at all over the certificated employees, withdrew
his objection.
Thereupon, the Bill was

Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead,

Approved as to form by the City Attorney.
Explanations of Votes
Supervisor Colman explained his intended vote on the foregoing
Bill, stating that he would vote "No." He did not consider the doing of
regular work as overtime work, entitled to overtime pay, simply be-
cause it was performed on Saturday or Sunday. If this overtime were
approved it would be setting a most dangerous precedent. It would
apply to everyone v/hose regular duties must be performed in the off
hours. For that reason he intended to vote "No."
Supervisor Brown, in his explanation of vote, announced that the
thing proposed has been discussed at great length in Washington
recently, that is, the elimination of Saturday and Sunday overtime.
It would be extremely unwise to adopt such sort of legislation in San
Francisco at this time.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the foregoing Bill was
Passed for Second Reading by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara,
Roncovieri, Shannon, Uhl — 9.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman — 2.

MONDAY, APRIL 13, 1942
Discussion
Supervisor MasPhee, in explaining the foregoing Bill, announced
that there were contained therein no increases in salary ranges.
The proposal was in line, absolutely, with the report from the Civil
Service Commission, and merely provided for salary standardization
for employees in the "B" Classification. With respect to salary in-
creases, many were granted during the consideration of the 1940-1941
budget, and were voted for, in many cases, by those now opposing
salary standardization. These salary increases were not all for em-
ployees in the lower income brackets. In fact, many of them were
for those in the higher brackets.
Thereupon. Supervisor MacPhee presented, and read in part, the
following list of salary increases, and requested that it be made part
of the record:

Supervisor Brown objected to the foregoing Bill, repeating ob-
jections heretofore made against piecemeal salary standardization.
There is only one way to consider salary standardization, he held,
and that is to consider the entii'e matter, at one time.
Thereupon, Supervisor O'Gara moved postponement of consideration
until all the proposed salary standaiization schedules which the
Finance Committee intends to submit to the Board, are actually so
submitted. Then the Board will know the entire effect of salary in-
creases during the coming fiscal year.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Uhl.
Supervisor MacPhee opposed the motion, stating he did not believe
it possible for the Finance Committee to make recommendations in
time for the budget this coming year. The Finance Committee is
meiely trying to make a decision that will be fair and equitable. That
will l)e impossil)le if Supervisor 0'(!ara's motion carries.
Supervisor Gallagher expressed agreement with Supervisor O'Gara.
He was not opposed to any employees of San Francisco receiving raises
in pay, he said, but lie liclicved the Board should lirst find out what
the cost to the ta.xpayers would hv. The city's whole motive at this
time should be for civilian defense. Every city employee should be in
agreement with that. This matter should be put over for a while.
MONDAY, APRIL 13, 1942 621
Supervisor MacPhee, in answer to statements made, stated that the
proposed salary standardization under consideration would cost about
$90,000 to $100,000. However, it is a matter that should have been
taken care of more than ten years ago. It is a charter mandate, and
has been since the charter's adoption.
Supervisor O'Gara, in further support of his motion for postponement,
recalled to the Board that he had made a similar motion on another
salary standardization matter the pi-evious week. The motion was de-
feated at that time, but since then several things have happened.
The Board has been informed that the cost of civilian defense will
amount to about 25 cents in the tax rate, and that figure may be in-
creased before the rate is set. Social workers, since the previous
meeting of the Board, have come to him stating that stenographers
to whom they dictate their reports receive greater salaries than they
do. That is not right, yet the Board is being requested to increase
the stenographer's salaries. The social workers are entitled to at
least as much as the stenographers. Ambulance drivers are requesting
standardization. Increases for institutional workers are being requested
by C. I. 0. If the Board partially standardizes now, next year there
will be more trouble. This year the Board should take care of matters
up to the maximum of their ability, taking care first of those employees
who are being unjustly treated. It is just as much part of the Finance
Committee's job to report to the Board some economies that would
make it possible to pay increases, if possible, as to recommend in-
creases. For those reasons he would urge the Board to vote for con-
tinuance of the matter until it has the whole schedule of salary increases
before it.
Privilege of the Floor
Mr. Grover O'Connor, representing the Civil Service Clerks, was, on
motion by Supervisor Shannon, granted the privilege of the floor.
Mr. O'Connor opposed postponement. The matter has been deferred for
ten years or more already, and the Board has avoided the task which
the charter imposes: i. e., to standardize salaries of all the employees
of the city government. The Board has already gone ahead with the
policy of piecemeal standardization, and certain groups have been
taken care of, and as a matter of ordinary fair play the other em-
ployees should be taken care of. If Supervisor O'Gara's motion carries,
the matter will go along just as it has for the past ten years and the
problem will not be solved. If the Board does not want to go ahead
with the matter on a peicemeal basis, it should sit down every day
until it solves the problem as a whole. There is no other alternative.
Mr. Edmond Brown, on being granted the privilege of the floor,
opposed the motion for postponement. If the motion is carried, there
will be no standardization for another year. It must be determined
now or not at all. Supervisor O'Gara's sole argument for postponement
is: "If you can't do everything, do nothing." The decision should be
made now.
Mr. Ivan Flamm, representing the Municipal Service Association,
also objected to postponement. Standardization has been a charter
mandate for the past eighteen years, and we are now as far away from
standardization as we were eighteen years ago. Everyone seems to
favor standardization in theory, but we are getting no actual standard-
ization.
Miss Minrudi, representing a group of clerical employees, also
urged passage, stating she could see no reason why that group should
receive any treatment different from other groups.
Postponement Defeated
Thereupon, the roll was called and the motion for postponement
Lost by the following vote:

Noes: Supervisors Green. MacPhee, Mead, Meyer Roncovieri, Sliai.

Explanations of Votes
Before the roll was called on Passage for Second Reading, Supervisor
Colman explained his vote, saying that he was opposed to piece-
meal standardization. He disagreed with the contentions of the Finance
Committee that the proposed Bill contained "no inci-eases." Perhaps
the Bill did not contain any increases in compensation, but it would
cost San Francisco some $100,000 or $120,000. Standardization, Super-
visor Colman continued, consisted in looking into the duties and pay
received on the outside for like duties performed and comparing those
duties and pay with salaries paid by the city government. San Fran-
cisco is obligated to pay salai'ies that are being paid in private em-
ployment. In a great majority of cases, the city has paid decidedly
more. Today appears to be a particularly poor time to standardize, as
conditions on the outside are very abnormal, and once the basis is
established it cannot be changed, but must remain. The employees af-
fected by the proposed standai-dization are not entitled to any more
consideration than anyone else in the city government, and this is not
standardization. Nor is it standardization to ignore those in the
higher brackets. It is not solving the problem, and he would vote
"No."
Supervisor Shannon announced that he felt the President's explana-
tion was no explanation of his vote, but an argument. It is the same
argument that the Board has been hearing for the past ten years, and
if the Board listens to him it will continue to listen for another ten
years. As for himself. Supervisor Shannon stated that he was willing
to attend meetings, and standardize salaries, but he questioned the
attendance of other Supervisors at such meetings. He believed, under
the circumstances the proposed Bill should be passed without further
delay, and the Board should go ahead with piecemeal standardization
until it finishes the job.
Mr. Hendeison, representing the Civil Service Commission, in an-
swer to questions asked by various Supervisors, reported that there
were about 650 separate classifications in the city employ. However,
the Finance Committee had requested the Commission to submit to the
Board the 1930 schedules for the entire group, which was done. The
Finance Committee, through the Board, has re-referred to the Com-
mission proposed changes affecting better than one-half of those 650
classifications. Whether the Commission would be able to clear reports
on all the classifications in time for the budget, he did not know. The
1930 schedules, if adopted, would increase payrolls about $515,000. The
increases in the clerical service would account for about $99,000. The
proposals in the ordinance under construction would increase that
$99,000 to about $117,000. There are also substantial increases in certain
other groups now pending before the Commission.
Supervisor Roncovieri renewed his suggestion, made previously
when the subject of salary standardization had been before the Board,
that salary standardization be approved in toto, but that increases
of pay be allowed thereunder be spread over a period of years.
Supei-visor Uhl, in expressing his views, stated that he felt the
Board was working at cross purposes with the Mayor. He understood
that the Mayor would continue the policy adopted by the Mayor last
year, in allowing the second third of increases to which employees
were entitled under tlie 1930 schedules. (The Chief Administrative
Officer conlirnied Supervisor IHil's statement.) Supervisor Uhl de-
sii'ed to see the Mayor's budget l)efore acting on salary standardization.
After viewing the Mayor's budget, it might be considered desirable to
increase salaries in some of the lower brackets, but such recommenda-
tions should come from the Mayor. He would vote "No."
Supervisor Brown, in explanation of bis vote, again expressed his
MONDAY, APRIL 13, 1942 623
opposition to piecemeal standardization. He was not opposed to con-
sidering the entire subject, but he did object to taking any single
group or groups at this time. As to Supervisor MacPhee's expressed
surprise that so many raises in the upper brackets being granted
during the previous budget's consideration. Supervisor Brown an-
nounced that he was amazed that Supervisor MacPhee was so sur-
prised, since that was one of the pertinent questions in the election
campaign last year.
Supervisor MacPhee, in reply thereto, denied that he had made any
statement that there were no raises in the lower brackets last year,
and as to the election campaign, never had he made any comments
on the size of salaries being paid to city employees.

Thereupon, the roll was called and the Bill under consideration,
providing for salary standardization for the "B" group, was

Adopted
The following recommendations of the Public Health and Welfare
Committee were taken up:
Present: Supervisors Shannon and Roncovieri.
Appealing to Municipal Departments and Employees to Conserve
Man-Power and Materials for Early and Victorious
Consummation of the War.
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No. 2562. as follows:
Whereas, At the meeting of the National Association of County
Officials held in Washington, D. C, on March 9th and 10th, 1942, Mr.
Maury Maverick. Chief of the Governmental Requirements Bureau
made the following statement: "Every man, woman and child in
Germany, Italy and Japan are working hard and spending their time
trying to figure out w^ays to make slaves of us;" and
Whereas, At the same meeting, the following remarks were made by
Mr. Leon Henderson, Administrator of the Office of Price Administra-
tion: "The Germans and Japanese have for many years past devoted
more than fifty per cent of their effort for war goods and training of
soldiers. At the end of 1941 the United States was using twenty to
twenty-two per cent of our resources for war effort. When we get to
forty per cent, which we will do in the latter part of 1942. we will
equal the combined war effort of the Germans, Italians and Japanese;"
and
Whereas, It is obvious from the statements of such authorities that
culmination of this War in Victory for the Allies demands full, intense
and immediate concentration on the War effort with the attendant
requisites of strict conservation of man-power for war-production
industries and rigid economies in the use of materials and supplies
which are non-essential to the war effort; and
Whereas, Because any thinking person is cognizant of the fact that
the longer this War is permitted to continue because of lack of man-
power in vital industries and because of lack of the essential materials
necessary in the conduct of the War. the greater will be the number
of killed and wounded among our American boys and their Allies, it
is imperative as a patriotic duty and as a humane and decent con-
sideration of our defenders, that expeditious and efficient effort be
made to make available the necessary man-power and materials for the
successful conduct of the war, for early victory by the Allies, and
what is paramount, for the protection and preservation of our national
youth; and
Whereas, It would be exemplary, inspiring and contagious were the
municipal corporation which is the City and County of San Francisco,
to lead the crusade for immediate, and conscientious adherence to a
program of economy in man-power as well as materials and supplies;
now, therefore, be it
MONDAY, APRIL 13, 1942 627
Resolved, That this Board of Supervisors does hereby appeal to
the various commissions, boards and departments of the municipal
government of San Francisco and in particular to the rank and file
of municipal employees and does urge with all the enthusiasm and
persuasion of which it is capable that in an all-out endeavor to con-
serve man-power, materials and supplies for the early consummation
of this War in a complete victory for the United States and its Allies
and to blaze the trail for similar activities on the part of the manage-
ment and personnel of private industry and business, full, voluntary
and enthusiastic cooperation be accorded the proposal set forth in this
resolution, namely, "Serve by Saving."
Adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead,
Meyer, O'Gara, Roncovieri, Shannon, Uhl — 11.

Supervisor MacPhee presented Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, San Francisco, at present striving energetically to cope
with the numerous and pressing problems thrust upon it as a result
of the all-out war effort, is now confronted with a grave peril to the
well-being of its citizenry namely, the abandonment and possible
resultant deterioration of the Japanese quarter, lying in that area
bounded by Ellis, California, Gough and Fillmore Streets; and
Whereas, The "Little Tokio" district's buildings are mostly sub-
standard wooden frame structures deficient in sanitary and structural
provisions, which when unoccupied will speedily become an unsightly
and health-endangering blight; and
Whereas, By the time the evacuation of San Francisco's Japanese
is completed, estimated as May 15th, 1942, it is imperative that a
definite and comprehensive program of rehabilitation and restoration
in said district be in progress; and
Whereas, Several constructive proposals have been advanced by
civic-minded groups for the utilization of the rehabilitated residences,
which proposals include the suggestion that said district be used to
provide housing for the influx of defense workers, in particular those
employed by the new Bechtel Shipbuilding Company plant in Sausa-
lito; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That Ibis Poind of Supervisors, cognizant of the gravity
of the problem of rehabilitating the Japanese quarter, does hereby
call upon and direct the Public Buildings, Land and City Planning
Committee of said Board to hold an early meeting on said subject at
wliich it slinll invite the alluuhince and recommendations of the
Director of Property of the City and County of San Francisco, the
representatives of the Real Estate Board, the Real Estate Association,

ins to an expeditious and satisfactory solution to this urgent question.
deferred to Public Buildings. Lands and City Planning Commission.
Memorializing the Maritime Commission to Locate in San
Francisco, any Further Units Proposed for the Pacific Coast
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor MacPhee presented Resolution No. 2567, as follows:
Whereas. Due to decentralization of the Washington Bureaus of the
Maritime Commission it will become necessary to provide, for those
units which are transferred to this area, not only adequate and con-
venient office space but also comfortable and easily accessible living
quarters for the approximately four hundred families which will
accompany the personnel of those bureaus, and
Whereas, Although the Maritime Commission has for many years
maintained its branch office In San Francisco, It Is now reported that
it is proposed to locate the new bureaus presently to be transferred
to this area, in some other Bay City, and
Whereas. If consummated such an action would be imprudent, be-
cause:
1. San Francisco is the shipping center of the Pacific Coast
and the Maritime Commission recognizes this by reason of
of the fact that it has always maintained its branch office
in this city.
2. San Francisco is the headquarters of the 12th Naval District,
3. The home or branch offices of most of the firms engaged
in the shipping industry on the Pacific Coast are located in
San Francisco.
4. San Francisco has adequate office space to care for as many
of the bureaus of the Maritime Commission as it is deemed
desirable to establish on the Pacific Coast, while it is reported
that other Bay Cities do not have such space available,
5. San Francisco has adequate and comfortable living quarters
to care for the personnel and their families of as many of the
bureaus of the Maritime Commission as are proposed to be
transferred to the Pacific Coast, while It is reported that
other Bay Cities are confronted with a housing shortage,
6. It would be Inconvenient and unnecessary to establish some
of the bureaus of the Maritime Commission in another city
while maintaining the main branch in San Francisco,
Now. Therefore, be it Resolved. That this Board of Supervisors
does hei-eby memorialize the Maritime Commission and does urge that
any further units or bureaus of the Commission, which it is proposed
to establish on the Pacific Coast, be located in San Francisco in con-
junction with the branch office of the Maritime Commission now main-
tained here, and, be it
Further Resolved, That copies of this Resolution be sent to the
Maritime Commission and to Congressmen Welch and Rolph.
Adoi)ted by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead,
Meyer, O'Gara, Roncovlerl, Shannon, Uhl^ — 11.

Supporting the Proposal for Estabhshment of Priority Procedure
for Certain Businesses and Associations.
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor Mead presented Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, The continued operation of banking and financial institu-
tions, insurance companies, retail establishments, business buildings
housing or serving government agencies, labor unions, chambers of com-
merce, and trade, farm and merchants associations, is of utmost im-
portance in the furtherance of the war effort and the economic func-
tioning of the nation; and
Whereas, Restricted supply of many operating supplies and mainte-
nance materials is interfering with the efficient operation of these
establishments, resulting in the necessity of their securing priority
status to obtain such supplies; and
Whereas, The volume of individual applications for assistance, bound
to result from this situation, will place an undue burden on the federal
agency processing them; and
Whereas, No formal priority procedure has yet been made available
to such business establishments and associations enabling them to
secure operating supplies which are vital to their continued operation;
and
Whereas, The availability of an automatic priority procedure similar
to that given to other types of business would go far towards alleviating
the situation; and
Whereas, The San Francisco Chamber of Commerce, the San Fran-
cisco Labor Council and San Francisco Building Trades Council have
requested the Division of Industry Operations. War Production Board,
to consider the tstablishment of a priority procedure which would
enable the above identititd businesses and associations to obtain operat-
ing supplies and maintenance materials; now, therefore, be it
Resolved. That this Board of Supervisors does hereby go on record
as supporting the request of the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce,
the San Francisco Labor Council and the San P^'rancisco Building
Trades Council in petitioning the Division of Industry Operations. War
Production Board, to consider the establishment of a priority procedure
which would enable the aliove identified businesses and associations
to obtain operating supplies and maintenance materials; and the Clerk
is hereby directed to forward copies of this resolution to the Division
of Industry Operations. War Production Boaid and to Senator Sheridan
W. Downey. Senator Hiram W. Johnson, Congressman Richard J.
Welch and Congressman Thomas R. Rolph and to William Green,
National President of the American Federation of Lal)or.

Request for Report on Feasibility of Skip-Stop System on
Municipal Railway
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor IJhl piesented Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, The Skip-stop system now employed in the Sunset. Rich-
mond, and Parkside districts has definitely proved to be of major im-
portance in traffic conditions in these areas; and
MONDAY, APRIL 13. 1942 633
Whereas. These blocks are 240 feet in width and residents of these
areas are more than satisfied with the resultant improvement accorded
by the Skip-stop system; now, therefore, be it
Resolved. That the Manager of Utilities submit a report to this
Board of Supervisors as to the feasibility of adopting Skip-stop
systems on all blocks less than 300 feet in length now served by the
Municipal Railway.
Referred to the Public Utilities Committees.
Meeting of San Francisco Bay Regional Development Council —
Report by Supervisor Robert Miller Green
On Saturday. April 11. 1942, I attended the San Francisco Bay
Regional Development Council meeting, held at Hotel Claremont,
Berkeley, California, as a representative of the Board of Supervisors
of the City and County of San Francisco.
The meeting was called to order by B. O. Busick, Jr., Vice President
of the California State Planning Board. He stated that it w-as the
feeling of the State Planning Board that not only should there be local
planning boards limited to a particular community or county, but that,
counties having the same economical interests should cooperate in a
more enlarged planning scheme. It was their belief that the San Fran-
cisco Bay Area generally has the same general interests and that the
bay counties should cooperate in respect to a long term planning
determination.
Representatives of the following Bay Counties were invited to the
meeting: Alameda, Contra Costa. Marin. Napa, San Francisco, San
Mateo, Santa Clara. Solano and Sonoma. Mr. Busick stated that the
State Planning Board was sponsoring the development idea of San
Francisco Bay and that the State Planning Board was not running it.
He felt that a unified report from the counties above named should be
presented at the end of the year and after perusal the State Planning
Board would send out its report based upon the original report with,
perhaps, further recommendations.
Much discussion was had in respect to what might be accomplished
by a coordinated planning system for the counties named, however, the
main business transacted was the separation of the 9 counties into 3
units i.e. the Peninsula Planning Committee composed of representa-
tives of San Francisco, San Mateo and Santa Clara Counties, (2) The
North Bay Planning Committee, composed of representatives from
Marin, Solano. Sonoma and Napa Counties, (3) Eastern Bay Planning
Committee, composed of representatives of Contra Costa and Alameda
Counties. After said general conversation the said committees met in
separate rooms. Mr. Fred Beer. Chairman of Board of Supervisors of
San Mateo County was elected Chairman of our group and the writer
was elected Secretary. We planned to meet sometime in the early
part of May in San -\Iateo County where we will formulate working
plans for the Peninsula Committee. The work of each Committee is
to be determined by its own analysis of local and regional problems.
It must be remembered that the San Francisco Bay Regional Devel-
opment organization is a tentative one only, and is to last for the
calendar year of 1942. If it proves successful it may then carry on.
We determined both on the floor of the general meeting and in our
private caucus that the most that could be done this year was to study
the planning problems as they effect the 3 counties, San Francisco,
Santa Clara and San Mateo, generally with a view to a full and definite
report, first to the general committee and then to the State Planning
Board, sometime near the end of the year.
No county or city funds are requested for the support of the project.
Membership is purely voluntary and from what the members said they
would be happy to defray the small expenses of occasional meetings
out of their own pockets.
634 MONDAY, APRIL 13. 1942
According to the original thought, each Board of Supervisors and
City Council in a district, together with the Committee Planning Com-
missioner and local I'lanning Commissioner would be represented on
the Regional Planning Commission. However, I pointed out that this
would jeopardize San Francisco's position in that we would only have
2 votes as compared with perhaps 24 votes of San Mateo County. We
finally decided that 12 representatives from each County and City and
County would constitute our 3 Counties Sub-committee.
Again I was impressed by the same lack of confidence in San Fran-
cisco. The first speaker stated in words somewhat as follows: "I do
not think San Francisco is represented today." It was stressed in the
Sub-committee that the whole plan would fail if San Francisco did not,
for a change, do its part. I was also told that Contra Costa County
had refused to enter the scheme on the ground that they could not and
would not trust San Francisco. This was told to me by 3 or 4 super-
visors who seemed to speak with good authority. They stated that
Contra Costa County would come into the Commission if San Francisco
stepped out. but never would they associate themselves in an enterprise
with San Francisco. I plan shortly to attend the meeting of the Board
of Supervisors of Contra Costa County and see what can be done
towards developing a more friendly relationship between the 2 counties.
All in all I believe that the meeting was successful from the stand-
point of San Francisco's welfare. I succeeded in meeting many of the
supervisors and planning engineers from the 9 counties and plan in
the future to be in close touch with them not only from the standpoint
of planning matters but for the thought of putting San Francisco in
a more favorable light with them.
Respectfully submitted,
ROBERT MILLER GREEN.

and handle the matters pertaining to the functions of this Committee,

the National Resources Planning Board, universities and colleges,
and/or research organizations?

and could be secured.
(4) How and by whom should reports of the Council and the Sub-
committees be prepared?

(5) Could public, quasi-public, or private funds be secured for pub-
lication of reports?

(7) What specitic subjects or types of problems should be reported
upon by Planning Sub-committees at the next meeting?
Ans. "Each Sub-committee will have to decide this matter and in
all probability they will take up the matters most urgent at the present
time."
(8) When and where should all subsequent meetings of both the
Council and the Sub-committees be held during the current year?
This question was put to the floor for discussion and it was some-
what generally decided to have the General Council Meetings every
two months but a final motion was made and passed that each Sub-
committee should arrange a meeting not later than May 1.5th which
would give sufficient time to arrange beginning material and plans for
the general meeting of the Council which was voted to be held on
June 6th beginning with luncheon and continuing through the after-
noon and should be held in San Francisco. Supervisor Beer is to
arrange the place and notify the chairman of each Sub-committee.
Some other general discussion took place relative to matters to
be taken up and the main subjects brought forth were:
Pollution of Bay Water, Sewage, Sterilization, etc.
Munitions Plants and Air Fields on Marin Peninsula.
Traffic to and from Mare Island, etc.
Each Sub-committee should get into working order and arrange ita
subjects in order that there will be as much continuity and similarity
as possible at the next general Council meeting.
Respectfully submitted,
ROBERT MILLER GREEN.

Board of Supervisors. The requisition for such service shall first be
filed with the Civil Service Commission, and if the proposed employ-
ment and compensation are legally authorized as herein provided, the
secretary of said Commission shall so certify and shall promptly trans-
mit the said requisition to the Controller, and if funds are available for
the compensation of the proposed employment, he shall so certify and
sliall promptly transmit the requisition to the Mayor for his approval as
herein provided. In the event the Hetch Hetchy Power Project shall
suspend or cease operations during the fiscal year, the employments
engaged thereon shall be terminated when, in the judgment of the
Manager of Utilities, such action is necessary.
Section 141 of the Charter provides that the Civil Service Commis-
sion shall be the judge of the classification of positions. Any changes
made by the Civil Service Commission during the fiscal year 1941-42
in the classification of the duties of a position or the title of a position
herein enumerated shall be made effective, providing no change in
compensation nor the creation of any new position is involved, by de-
livering forthwith to the Controller a transcript of the action of the
said Commission in changing the title of the position. Copies of such
transcript shall also be forthwith filed with the Mayor, the Board of
Supervisors, and the head of the department concerned.
The foregoing Bill, consideration of which during the regular order
of business was postponed until after consideration of the Mayor's veto
of similar legislation was disposed of, immediately on conclusion of
consideration of the Mayor's veto, was taken up.
Supervisor MacPhee. in explaining the foregoing Bill, announced that
it was identical to the Bill just passed, notwithstanding the Mayor's ob-
jection, with the exception of the addition of a sentence which had been
inadvertently omitted from original legislation. That sentence appears
in about the middle of the last paragraph of Section 1. and reads as
follows: "In the event that the Mayor does approve the filling of such
vacancies he shall make a report as to his reasons to the Board of
Supervisors."
Thereupon, the roll was called and the Bill was
Passed for Second Reading by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown. Colman. Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead,
Meyer, O'Gara. Roncovieri, Shannon, Uhl — 11.
Action Rescinded
At the request by Supervisor Roncovieri. who stated that he had
voted "Aye," inadvertently, and desired to change his vote, and on mo-
tion by Supervisor Shannon, the Board, by unanimous vote, rescinded
the action just taken.
Thereupon, the roll was again called and the Bill was again
Passed for second reading by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead,
Meyer, O'Gara, Shannon, Uhl — 10.
No: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.

Explanations of Votes
Suptrvisor I'lil. in cxplanulion ol his vote, called attention to the
low salaries paid employees in the group of Institutional Workers, the
compensation of $10() paid to many of these employees is not a living
wage, and hv would vole "Aye" for this particular group, in order that
they might have a somewhat near living wage.
Supervisor O'Caia announced that he would vote for the foregoing
Bill. An analysis shows that 92''r of the increases are in Classes 12, 1116

and 1204, all of whom are receiving $106 per month. He was opposed,
as a rule, to piecemeal standardization, but he would not hesitate in
individual cases where people are being paid such inadequate salaries,
whether piecemeal or otherwise.
Supervisor Colman. in expressing his views, stated that there was
perhaps, more justification for increases proposed in the foregoing Bill
than for many other increases being proposed, but on final analysis, the
priniciple was just the same. The same thing is being proposed here
that some members do not feel to be justified, namely, piecemeal stand-
ardization. Wages paid today in private hospitals must be taken into
consideration, because they have a bearing on these cases. While he was
in sympathy with these people affected, to standardize today, under
present conditions, is not the wisest kind of standardization. This is
standardizing at the peak of conditions that are very abnormal. For
those reasons he would vote "No."
Supervisor MacPhee pointed out that all cases in the I Group must be
considered, if any of them were, and for that reason the entire "I"
group is before the Board.
Supervisor Brown announced that the "I" Group was entitled to
consideration, and would get it. but he did not think this the time to
consider that or any group. He had been consistent in objection to
piecemeal standardization and he did not propose to change.
Mr. Arthur Hare, representing hospital workers, on being granted
the privilege of the floor, urged approval of the Finance Committee
recommendation.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the foregoing Bill was
Passed for Second Reading by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green, MacPhee. Mead. Meyer. O'Gara,
Roncovieri, Shannon. Uhl — 9.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman — 2.

Privilege of the Floor
Mr. Schlessinger, repi'esenting Civil Service Maintenance Union,
on being granted the privilege of the floor, addressed the Board at
length, urging the adoption of the Finance Committee's recommen-
dation.
Supervisor Roncovieri read portions from a communication from the
Civil Service Commission, in which attention was directed to a number
of inequities appearing in the "B" Group, as the result of action already
taken, and feared that perhaps inequities would be created. He be-
lieved the proposal to sit down with the Mayor, about which Super-
visor MacPhee had informed the Board, and then to come back to the
Board, was sound. Equity must be the keynote to all the Boards work,
and he would not l)e one of six votes to be unjust and unfair to any-
one who works for San Francisco. He wanted all employees treated
alike. For that reason he would vote "No" on the forego>ng Bill, and
on any other piecemeal standardization that might come before the
Board, because it has been proven that some of the matters already
passed have been inequitable. He would not be a party to giving one
man more money than another man. on the same job. He would vote,
also, to sustain the Mayor's veto, so that the Board can again start
from scratch.
Supervisor Callagher announced that he had. in most cases, voted
against increases in salary. However, he believed that all city employees
in the lower brackets are entitled to an increase in salary, and he would
vote "Aye" for this group. He intended, later during the proceedings, to
present a resolution re(iuesting the City Attorney to prepare for the
Board some soit of procedure that will give city employees in the lower
brackets at least a live per cent increase in salaries during the duration
of the present emergency.
Supervisor O'Gaia announced that he iuul no doubt that some of the
recommended increases were worthy, i)ut he had no means of know-
ing whether they are any more worthy than others that are to be sub-
mitted. If called on to vote on the present recommendation, he would
MONDAY, APRIL 20, 1942 663
vote "No." However, he would suggest, and he would so move, that
further consideration be deferred until after the Finance Committee
meets with the Mayor on the whole question.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Roncovieri, and carried by the fol-
lowing vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Meyer, O'Gara, Ron-
covieri, Uhl — 7.
Noes: Supervisors Green. MacPhee, Mead, Shannon- — 4.

Privilege of the Floor
Mr. Harry B. Handley, Chairman of Public Relations Committee, San
Francisco Dental Society, called particular attention to the low salaries
now being paid to Dental Hv.cientists and to Dentists, and to the extreme
difficulty being faced by the the city in maintaining these employments.
He urged that propei- consideration be given those classifications.
Mr. .John Fitzgerald. representin.g the T Group, addressed the Board
at length, pointing out and confirming statement made by Supei'visor
O'Gara at the previous meeting of the Board, that in some cases. Social
Service Workers are receiving less salary than the stenographers to
whom they dictate their reports.
Supervisor MacPhee, in discussing the foregoing Bill in particular,
and the entire subject of standardization in general, pointed out that
the reason why inequities would not be corrected by the Mayor's plan to
approve and include in the budget the second step of the plan in-
au.gurated dui'ing the consideration of the budget for the current year,
was that in some cases, increases were not recommended by depajlment
heads. As to Finance Committee inequities, had the committee chosen
to recommend the 193S schedules, it could have saved many days' work
and study. The Committee has made a very thorough study, but, of
course, could not escape creating some inequities, but it will have
eliminated, it feels about 90% of the existing inequities if its reccom-
mendations are approved by the Board. The committee cannot hope to be
100 ^r correct.
Supervisor Uhl announced that inasmuch as he was not in sympathy
with piecemeal standardization for some of the higher salaried brackets,
there were, perhaps, some classifications that had escaped his attention.
However, he would gladly support increases if certain ranges are out of
line with private employment.
Supervisor O'Gara, thereupon, moved that further consideration be
postponed until after the Finance Committee had met with the Mayor.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Roncovieri.
Supervisor Roncovieri, after seconding the motion for postponement,
stated that he believed adjustments should be made, and he would be
glad to support recommendations for salary increases for both dental
hygienists and social workers if they were brought in separately.
Supervisor Green opposed postponement. He could see no reason in
consulting with the Mayor on this matter. The Mayor represents the
executives functions of the city government, while the Board is the
legislative l)ranch. The Board has before it, the Finance Committee's
recommendation. Postponement of consideration, in his opinion, was
simply procrastination.
Supei'visor Shannon agreed with the views of Supervisor Green. He
urged that the Bill be passed without delay, pointing out if anything
important should develop, the members could act accordingly two weeks
later, when the matter would again be before the Board for Final
Passage.
Supervisor Roncovieri, as explanation of his vote, stated that if he
thought the Finance Committee's recommendation was absolutely just
and fair he would vote for it. He believed the committee had tried to be
just in the matter, but already, so the Civil Service Commission states
several serious errors have occuwed in the rush to adopt piecemeal
standardization. He believed the Board should consult with the Mayor.
It is the Mayor's duty to make studies of these things. For those reasons
he would vote for postponement.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the motion for postponement
carried by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Meyer. O'Gara, Ron-
covieri, Uhl — 7.
Noes: Supervisors Green, MacPhee, Mead, Shannon — 4.

Committee on motion of Supervisor Brown, was taken up:
Mayor Requested to Call Meeting of Citizens Committee for the
Purpose of Organization of the San Francisco Home Guard
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, It is generally recognized that in the event of the invasion
of the Pacific Coast, it is probable San Francisco will be among the
first cities to be attacked; and
Whereas, Due to its exposed position, our City is exceedingly vul-
nerable to such attack by enemy forces; and
Whereas, Although Civilian Defense has been adequately organized
to take care of non-combatant types o'f resistance to attack, no pi-ovision
has thus far been made to augment with local effort the comljatant
forces which will be opposed to the enemy; and
Whereas, Large numbers of San Francisco citizens .have been and
will be non-(iualified through disability, age. or other basis for defer-
ment, to become members of the military forces of the United States;
and
Whereas, Such non-qualified citizens are nonetheless capable of taking
part in home defense; now, therefore, be it
I
MONDAY. APRIL 20. 1942 673
Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors does hereby heartily en-
dorse the creation of a Home Guard for San Francisco, said Home
Guard to be made up entirely of San Francisco residents and citizens,
who are not qualified for active service in the Armed Forces of the
United States; and said Guard to be employed solely in augmenting
the defense of the City of San Francisco in the event of invasion of
this immediate territory by enemy forces; and be it
Further Resolved, That the Mayor is requested to call a meeting of a
Citizens Committee for the purpose of organization of the San Fran-

The following rocommendation of the Public Buildings, Lands and
City Planning Committee was taken up:
Present: Supervisors Uhl, Gallagher, MacPhee.
National Housing Agency and Home Owners Loan Corporation
Urged to Effectuate Slum Clearance in Japanese Quarter.
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No as follows:
Whereas, The rehabilitation of the Japanese Quarter in San Francisco
is of paramount importance both from a Military and social stand-
point; and
Whereas, Such a move on the part of the agencies empowered so to
do would be to the utmost advantage to the owners of real property in
that district as well as to the community as a whole; and
Whereas, A state of war now obtaining it is, therefore, obvious to all
forward looking San Franciscans that the rehabilitation of the Japanese
quai'ter at this time would raise I'eal property values in that district,
would elevate a large percentage of the property in the district affected
from a sub-standard to standard level obtaining for the most part in
all other sections of this, our beloved San Francisco, and would of neces-
sity place in the hands of the military, area sufficient for hospitalization
or living accommodations for both the military and the defense worker
and would at once remove an eyesore which has become so obnoxious
as to be well nigh insupportable; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That this Board of Supervisors does hereby go on record
as favoring the rehabilitation of the Japanese Quarter by the most
expeditious means found so to do; and be it
Further Resolved, That the Board does hereby memorialize the
National Housing Agency and Home Owners Loan Corporation to take
cognizance of our situation, that it be respectfully but urgently re-
quested to make an immediate survey of the district bounded by
ELLIS, CALIFORNIA, GOUGH AND FILLMORE STREETS
to the end that the Home Owners Loan Corporation take over the loans
on the real property affected in this district and make available any
sums necessary to modernize and rehabilitate the improvements thereon
at low rates of interest; and be it
Further Resolved, That the Clerk of the Board is hereby instructed
to send telegraphic advices to those agencies in Washington, D. C.
having control over such matters, but more particularly the National
Housing Agency and the Home Owners Loan Corporation, urging one
and all to forthwith take whatever steps are necessary to expeditiously
effect slum clearance in the district mentioned in this resolution.
Discussion
Supervisor UHl. Chairman of the Pul)lic Buildings. Lands and City
Planning Committe, discussed the foregoing Resolution briefly. He re-
ported that the Committee had held a well attended meeting, at which
all present were of the opinion that sonu thing should lie done in the
matter. Thereupon, he called upon Supervisor MacPhee, author of I he
proposed Resolution, for a more detailed explanation.
Supervisor MacPhee, in discussing the resolution, pointed out that
this is but the first step in the rehabilitation of the Japanese quarter in
San Francisco, and he believed that the Clerk should be instructed
immediately to wire San Francisco's representatives in Congress to
make some lecommcndations in the matter.
Supervisor Shannon suggested, however, before starting in impioving
»
MONDAY, APRIL 20, 1942 677
Japanese property, we find out, from some source, how our Americans
are being treated in Japan.
Mr. Smith, representing the Real Estate Board, on being granted the
privilege of the floor, objected to the inclusion of "the National Housing
Agency" in the resolution.
Supervisor MacPhee, however, pointed out that the National Housing
Agency was the controlling factor in the Home Owners Loan Corpora-
tion, and it had no bearing at all, on the federal low cost housing
authority.
Supervisor Brown desired to know more about the proposal before
voting for it. The resolution seemed to abound in glittering generalities.
And as far as he could see, he could see no military significance, at all.
In answer to objections voiced, Supervisor MacPhee explained the
entire purpose of the resolution. There is nothing in the resolution
concerning low cost housing. As to "military significance," the proposed
new shipbuilding yards at Sausalito would create the need for additional
housing. Increased employment in other shipbuilding yards, and in
other war industries, will add to the need for housing in San Francisco.
Thus, the resolution does have military significance.
Supervisor Shannon announced that he would like to know more about
the matter, and moved that further consideration be postponed for one
week.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Roncovieri.
Supervisor MacPhee objected to postponement. It is desired, he stated,
merely to do something for the district, and nothing will be accom-
plished by postponement. He would be agreeable to any suggestions
for amendments, but he desired a favorable vote on the resolution.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the motion for postponement was
defeated by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Green, Shannon — 3.
Noes: Supervisors Colman, Gallagher, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara,
Roncovieri, Uhl — 8.
Thereupon, Supervisor MacPhee again urged adoption of the resolu-
tion by unanimous vote, and asked that those opposed suggest any
recommendations for amendment.
Supervisor Gallagher then suggested amendment to include in the
resolution, the various governmental agencies which had been repre-
sented in committee, as well as San Francisco's representatives in Con-
gress. However, no action was taken on the suggested amendments.
Adopted
Whereupon, the roll was called and the resolution was
Adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Colman, Gallagher, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara,
Roncovieri, Uhl — 8.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Green, Shannon — 3.
Explanation of Vote
After the foregoing vote. Supervisor Green e.xplained his vote, saying
that although he was sympathetic with low cost housing, he agreed with
Supervisor Brown that the question of rehal)ilitation of the Japanese
quarter was very uncertain, and that he really did not know just what
the Board was being asked to vote on. He did not believe it to be with-
in the province of the Board to bring buildings up to standard, and
the action proposed in taking the Japanese quarter for rehabilitation
might end in boundless confusion. For that reason he had voted "No."
678 MONDAY, APRIL 20, 1942
Adopted
The following recommendation ol' the Public Health and Welfare Com-
mittee was taken up:
Pi'esent: Supervisoi-s Shannon. Koncovieri.
Supporting the Proposal for Establishment of Priority Procedure
for Certain Businesses and Associations.
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No. 2579. as follows:
Whereas. The continued operation of banking and financial institu-
tions, insurance companies, retail establishments, business buildings
housing or serving government agencies, labor unions, chambers of com-
merce, and trade, farm and merchants associations, is of utmost im-
portance in the furtherance of the war effort and the economic func-
tioning of the nation; and
Whereas, Restricted supply of many operating supplies and mainte-
nance materials is interfering with the efficient operation of these
establishments, resulting in the necessity of their securing priority
status to obtain such supplies; and
Whereas, The volume of individual applications for assistance, bound
to result from this situation, will place an undue burden on the federal
agency processing them; and
Whereas, No formal priority procedure has yet been made available
to such business establishments and associations enabling them to
secure operating supplies which are vital to their continued operation;
and
Whereas, The availability of an automatic priority procedure similar
to that given to other types of business would go far towards alleviating
the situation; and
Whereas, The San Francisco Chamber of Commerce, the San Fran-
cisco Labor Council and San Francisco Building Tiades Council have
requested the Division of Industry Operations, War Production Board,
to consider the estal)lishment of a priority procedure which would
enable the above identified businesses and associations to obtain operat-
ing supplies and maintenance materials; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That this Board of Supervisors does hereby go on record
as supporting the request of the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce,
the San Francisco Labor Council and the San Francisco Building
Trades Council in petitioning the Division of Industry Operations, War
Production Boai-d, to consider the establishment of a priority procedure
which would enable the above identified businesses and associations
to obtain operating supplies and maintenance materials; and the Clerk
is hereby directed to foiwaid copies of this resolution to the Division
of Industry Operations, War Production Board and to Senator Sheridan
W. Downey. Senator Hiram W. Johnson. Congressman Richard J.
Welch and Congressman Thomas R. Rolph and to William Green.
National President of the American Federation of Labor.
Adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown. Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead,
Meyer. O'Gara. Roncovieri, Shannon. Uhl — 11.
Consideration of Mayor's Veto
CITY AND COUNTY OF SAN FRANCISCO
MAYOR'S OFFICE
200 Citv Hall
April 10. 1942.
To the H()M()ial)le
The Hoard of Supervisors
(Mty Hall, San Francisco.
Gentlemen :
I am in receipt of Bill No. KiOl. Ordinance No. un-noted, amending
MONDAY, APRIL 20. 1942 679
the 1941-42 salary ordinance, which amendment generally provides that,
when a vacancy exists in a position in any department of the municipal
government, the Civil Service Commission shall make an investigation
as to the necessity of refilling such position, and that a copy of the
report of such investigation shall be filed within thirty days with the
Mayor and the Board of Supervisors as to the necessity of filling such
position.
I return herewith the said Ordinance, with my disapproval and veto
endorsed thereon for the following reasons:
That I find nothing in the Charter which makes it the duty of the
Civil Service Commission to investigate the necessity of refilling po-
sitions. The necessity for such positions are in most eases determined,
at the time of the adoption of the Annual Budget and Appropriation
Ordinance and the Annual Salary Ordinance, and if the Board of Super-
visors, in adopting each of these ordinances, has determined the ne-
cessity for the position, it appears to me that the head of the depart-
ment and the Mayor or the Chief Administrative Officer are best
qualified to determine the necessity for the refilling of such position
and that this Ordinance places upon the Civil Service Commission a
duty which was not intended by the Charter.
I note that the Ordinance does not prevent the filling of the position
irrespective of the recommendation of the Civil Service Commission.
I further find that a temporary appointment may be made for the
thirty day interval during which the Civil Service Commission may
act. This delay might be a serious handicap to departments, especially
to the Police and Fire Departments for the reason that in these depart-
ments appointees must provide themselves with uniforms and other
equipment. To compel such appointees to provide themselves with this
equipment for only thirty days would be unfair.
Your Board has ample authority when the succeeding budget and
Appropriation Ordinance come before you to determine the necessity
of the position, and if it should appear to you that such position is un-
necessary, irrespective of the action of the Department or this office,
you have ample authority to eliminate the position. Furthermore, I
desire to assure you that this office investigates most carefully the
necessity for filling any position which may become vacant during the
year, and it is only after such investigation and when it is shown by
the head of the department that the necessity for filling the position
exists, that this office approves the requisition for the new appointee,
and in departments under the jurisdiction of the Chief Administrative
Officer, Mr. Brooks is equally insistent that the necessity for the filling
of the position be demonstrated.
Therefore. I see no necessity for making the Ordinance effective.
Yours very truly,
ANGELO J. ROSSI,
Mayor.
Mayor to Approve the Filling of Positions Vacated in Civil Service
(Series of 1939)
Bill No. 1601, Ordinance No , as follows:

Annual Salary Ordinance, by providing in said Section 1 that whenever
a vacancy exists in a permanent position set forth in said ordinance

not be filled until the Civil Service Commission shall have made an in-
vestigation and a report to the Mayor as to the necessity of said posi-
tion and the Mayor has approved a requisition for the filling of said
position.
Be it ordained by the People of the City and County of San Fran-
cisco, as follows:
680 MONDAY, APRIL 20, 1942
Section 1. Section 1 of Ordinance No. 1204, above mentioned, is
hereby amended to read as follows:
Section 1. In accordance witli the provisions of Section 73 of the
Charter, the positions hereinafter enumerated under the respective
departments are hereby created and/or established and/or continued

Appointing officers as specified in the Charter are hereby authorized
to make or continue appointments, as needed, during the said fiscal
year to positions enumerated in their respective sections of this ordi-
nance, but in no case to exceed the number of positions or the rate of
pay hertin enumei-ated and established, provided that temporary ap-
pointments to positions defined by the rules of the Civil Service Com-
mission as seasonal or temporary positions may be made by the respec-
tive appointing officers in excess of the number of permanent positions
herein established or enumerated if funds have been appropriated and
are available for such temporary service. No appointment to such po-
sitions shall be made until the Mayor shall approve the requisition for
such service. The said requisition shall first be filed with the Civil
Service Commission and if the proposed employment and the compen-
sation are legally authorized as herein provided, the secretary of said
Commission shall so certify and shall promptly transmit the said requi-
sition to the Controller and if funds are available for the compensation
of the proposed employment, he shall so cei'tify and shall promptly
transmit the said requisition to the Mayor for his approval as herein
provided. No such appointment shall continue beyond the period for
which the Controller has certified the availability of funds. At the re-
quest of the Mayor, the Civil Service Commission may investigate and
report to him on the necessity for such temporary or seasonal services.
The Civil Service Commission shall be immediately notified of any
change in the duties of a position herein established or of a vacancy
occurring in a position herein enumerated. Appointing officers shall
not make appointments to any such vacancy in a permanent position
until the Mayor shall approve the requisition for such service. Before
the fining of any iHU-ated position sJutU he approved, the Cirnl Service

filling of such vacancy. The requisition for such service shall first be
filed with the Civil Service Commission, and if the proposed employ-
ment and compensation are legally authorized as herein provided, the
secretary of said Commission shall so ct rtity and shall promi)tly trans-
mit the said reciuisition to tlie Controller, and if funds are available
for the compensation of the proposed employment, he shall so certify
and shall promptly transmit the requisition to the Mayor for his ap-
proval as heicin i)rovided. In the event the Hetch Hetchy Power
Project shall suspend or cease opeiations during the fiscal year, the
employments engaged thereon shall be terminated when, in the judg-
ment of the Manager of Utilities, such action is necessary.
Section 141 of the Charter provides that the Civil Service Commis-
sion shall be the judge of the classification of positions. Any changes
made l)y the Civil Service Commission during the fiscal year 1941-42
in the classification of the duties of a position or the title of a position
herein enumerated shall be made effective, providing no change in
compensation nor the creation of any new position is involved, by de-
livering forthwith to the Controller a transcript of the action of the
said Commission in clianging the title of the position. Copies of such
transcript shall also be forthwith filed with the Mayor, the Board of
Supervisors, and the head of the department concerned.
MONDAY, APRIL 20, 1942 681
Discussion
After the reading of the Mayor's communication, setting forth the
reasons for his veto. Supervisor MacPhee, in answer thereto, read poi"-
tions of Sections 141 and 143 of the Charter, which, he believed, did
impose upon the Civil Service Commission the duties of investigating
the necessity of filling vacated positions. In support of his request
that the Mayor's veto be not sustained. Supervisor MacPhee presented
statistics showing the number of new positions created, and the number
of positions tilled since the beginning of the current year. He believed a
most careful investigation should be made of all proposed new positions
and of the need for filling vacated positions.
Supervisor Roncovieri objected to overruling the Mayor's veto. Why
should a subordinate commission, appointed by the Mayor, tell the Mayor
that a job should not be filled. The Board of Supervisors has the final
word as to whether or not jobs shall be filled. At budget time, six votes
of the Board can veto any recommendation made by the Mayor. The
Board can refuse to appropriate money for any job it does not deem
necessary. He had great faith in the Mayor, in the Chief Administrative
Officer and in the various department heads, and he believed the question
of filling positions should be left up to them.
Supervisor MacPhee, in reply, pointed out that there was nothing in
the proposed legislation to prevent the Mayor from filling positions. It
merely provides for a report to the Board of Supervisors. Thereupon, he
urged that the roll be called and the Mayor's veto be not sustained.
Whereupon, the roll was called and the Mayor's veto was overridden
by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer,
O'Gara. Shannon, Uhl— 9.
Noes: Supervisors Brown. Roncovieri — 2.
Consideration Postponed
Consideration of Mayor's Veto
OFFICE OF THE MAYOR, SAN FRANCISCO
April 14. 1942.
To the Honorable
Board of Supervisors
City Hall
San Francisco, California
Gentlemen:
I have before me for consideration Bill No. 1615, Ordinance number
unnoted, amending Salary Standardization Ordinance No. 1203 by
changing the compensation schedules of a few titles and classes con-
tained in Division "B" Clerical Service, as outlined and maintained by
the Civil Service Commission.
I herewith return this bill to you with my disapproval and veto
endorsed thereon. I have vetoed the bill for the following reasons:
This is the first of a number of ordinances which are now either
before your Board for your action in the matter of re-standardizing the
salaries of a particular group or which have been referred by your
Board to the Civil Service Commission for report. Until all of these
matters have been reported on by the Civil Service Commission and
acted upon by your Board, it is impossible for either me or your Board
to have a complete picture of the overall effect of the various changes
in compensation proposed by your Board and either reported on by, or
pending before, the Civil Service Commission.
It is my understanding that if this Ordinance takes effect the legality
of the wliole pioceeding of piece-meal standardization will be challenged
in the courts and all salary adjustments of Avhatever kind thereby will
be defeated at least for the fiscal year 1942-43. This I do not witsh to
happen nor do I wish to contribute to such a situation.
682 MONDAY, APRIL 20, 1942
In giving consideration to the current year's budget, in order to avoid
discrimination I adopted the policy, subject to very few exceptions
where the increases in compensation would have been out of proportion
to the compensation being received by the employe, of bringing every
employe in the city service at least to the entrance salary of his classifi-
cation as set forth in the recommendation of the Civil Service Com-
mission under date of April 9, 1930, and as amended and extended by
the Commission during subsequent years.
These raises included increases to the forgotten employes who had
been overlooked for several years. In most cases, I adopted the policy
of allowing these increases to become effective over a three year period —
that is, one-third was allowed for the current fiscal year with the
intention of allowing the second third for the coming fiscal year and
the final third for the year 1943-44.
The result of this policy will be that no single year will be burdened
too heavily and yet all employes, without discrimination, whose com-
pensation is below the maximum, will receive adjustments in their
compensations in each of the three years and at the end of tlie three
year period every employe will receive the full rate of pay to which he
is entitled by length of service under the step plan proposed by the
Civil Service Commission.
Piece-meal standardization of salaries is opposed by the same or-
ganizations which brought about the referendum against the stand-
ardization schedule adopted by the Board of Supervisors in March of
1939, and which was defeated by a vote of over 3 to 1 at the special
election in May, 1939. Should the present piece-meal policy be chal-
lenged in Court the probable result will be that not only will the
schedules proposed by your honorable Board not be paid next year but
that the adjustments which I propose cannot be made.
This I deem unfair to all employes and in my budget recommenda-
tions to your honorable Board I am continuing, as far as posisble, my
policy established last year of granting the second one-third increase
in salaries to all employes entitled thereto. I do not propose to
endanger in any way the salary adjustments for the employes to which
I feel thsy are rightly entitled.
I am willing and anxious to take into consideration such standardiza-
tion as will be fair to all the employes of the city. I do not believe
the ordinance which is now before me will accomplish this and there-
fore. I return it to you with my disaprpoval and veto endorsed thereon.
Very truly yours,
ANGELO J. ROSSI, Mayor.

Ap7-il 20, 1942 — On motion by Supervisor O'Gara. consideration was
postponed for fourteen days, or until Monday. May 4, 1942.
Re-reference to Finance Committee
Supervisor MacPhee's Motion
Motion made at the meeting of April 13, 1942, by Supervisor MacPhee,
"that the new automobile requisitioned by the Board of Supervisors
be not purchased at this time."
Discussion
Supervisor Green, in discussing the foregoing motion, stated that he
believed it would be sound to purchase a new automobile. The value of
the Supervisor's Buick which is to be replaced is now $310. Repairs will
cost about $500, but overhauling will not make it a new car. His only
doubt about the matter is the price, $2500. and he would suggest that, if
possible, the Board obtain a less costly car.
Supervisor MacPhee agreed that there was a great deal of merit in
Supervisor Green's views, and perhaps it would be false economy to have
the old car repaired. However, he believed it more important that the
Board set an example for other departments to follow. Therefore, he
would urge approval of the motion.
Supervisor Mead announced that previously he was inclined to go
along with the idea of not purchasing the new car. He was now
convinced, though, that it would be false economy to continue with the
old car, eveii if repaired. The Board does not necessarily require such a
costly car. As to setting an example for other departments, he did not
know whether such example would be followed. With a view to econ-
omizing, the Mayor, who has three cars, might send two of them to the
Board of Supervisors, and keep one car for himself.
Supervisor Brown pointed out that necessary car repairs, including
684 MONDAY, APRIL 20, 1942
necessary tires, would probably amount to $600 rather than the esti-
mated $500. The average life of a car is considered four years; the
Supervisors' car is already older than four years. At the end of an-
other year, when without doubt the present car. even if repaired,
would have to be replaced, the Board would have no assurance that
it could get another car, and he believed it would be wise to be assured
now of some kind of transportation for the future. For that reason,
he would move that the entii-e matter be re-referred to the Finance
Committee with the recommendation that the Committee give thought
to the purchase of a car of lesser cost.
Motion seconded by Supervisor O'Gara.
Supervisor Shannon objected to re-reference to committee, and de-
sired a roll call on the motion.
Supervisor Colman stated he had no objection to re-reference, but
he could not consider himself bound by any recommendation the com-
mittee might make.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the motion to re-refer was carried
by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown. Colman. Gallagher. Green, Mead, Meyer,
O'Gara, Roncovieri, Uhl — 9.
Noes: Supervisors MacPhee, Shannon — 2.

Calling Special Meeting of the Board of Supervisors to Urge Prompt
Investigation of the Reber Plan
»( Series of 1939)
Supervisor MacPhee presented the following Finance Committee rec-
ommendation:
Resolution No. 2584. as follows:
Whereas. This Board of Supervisors by Resolution No. 2241 (Series
of 1939) has urged that legislation be introduced in the Congress of
the United States providing for an investigation of the Reber "San
Francisco Bay Project" ; and
» Whereas, The Reber Plan contemplates —
1. The construction of salt water barriers in the form of rock
and fill dams, so constructed as to carry railway lines and
highways, one just south of and paralleling the San Fran-
cisco Bay Bridge and the other running from Marin County
to Contra Costa County at the southerly end of San Pablo
Bay thus forming two great lakes with an inexhaustible
supply of fresh water for San Francisco Bay communities
and resulting in a substantially increased deep-water harbor
line.
2. The construction of locks and a fresh water ship channel
to permit access of ships into ports or anchorage in the
impounded waters, which action, incidentally, cleans the
hulls of deep-water ships, thus obviating the necessity for
drydocking for that purpose.
3. The reclamation of large areas of land to be utilized for
industrial sites.
4. Increased pier space for transports and other deep-water
ships.
5. The reclamation of land for and construction of a modern
and strategically located submarine base.
688 MONDAY, APRIL 20, 1942
6. The reclamation of land for and construction of a modern
and strategically located naval base.
7. The reclamation of land for and construction of a modern
and strategically located torpedo boat base.
8. The reclamation of land for and construction of modern,
adequate and strategically located air bases and an airport
terminal.
9. Increased deep water space for anchorage of naval ships.
Whereas, The San Francisco Bay Area with its incomparable nat-
ural advantages and its industrial and transportation facilities being,
essentially, the logical base for effective offensive operations in the war
against .Japan and conversely the area most vital in defense, it is
apparent that not only should immediate action be taken to make it
impregnable but that its resources and facilities should be developed to
maximum utilization; and
Whereas, Although under normal conditions it might be contended
that execution of the Reber Plan would constitute a local improvement
such a consideration has no merit now, with the imperative need for
the contemplated military, naval, productive and protective facilities
which constitute major items in the project; and
Whereas, Because time is of the essence in this war, expeditious
and decisive action should be taken upon any proposal that is condu-
cive to its eaily and successful conclusion in victory for the allies;
now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That this Board of Supervisors meet in special session
Friday, April 24, 1942, at two o'clock p.m., and resolve itself into a
Committee of the Whole for the purpose of considering and devising
ways and means to procure, from the authorities havjng jurisdiction
over the matter, prompt and decisive investigative action on the
Reber Plan to the end that if found feasible its undertaking may be
recommended and commenced at an early date.
Adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead,
Meyer, O'Gara, lloncovieri. Shannon, Uhl — 11.

the various amounts necessary for the efficient conduct of the city gov-
ernment and its departments, and to enact the tax rate ordinance
to pi-ocure a sum sufficient to cover such expenditures, and
Whereas, In order, properly, conscientiously and economically to
perform these duties, it is necessary that the Board be provided with

Whereas, One particular expenditure for which each year the Board
of Supervisors must appropriate and raise monies, and in connection
with which the Board has not much specific and detailed information

tax payers' money, is the matter of telephone service for which the city
is required to pay and especially the number of telephones supplied to

and official capacities of the various officers and employees, who by
reason of their office or employment receive phone service at a place
other than the City Hall or other official place of business, which is
charged, in any manner whatsoever, against the City and County of
San Francisco, and
Whereas, The subject and the data heretofore referred to are pe-
culiar to the knowledge of the Chief Administrative Officer; now,
therefore, be it

requested to furnish this Board, as soon as possible, with a compre-
hensive and detailed statement showing the total amount which the
City is required to pay each year for telephone service; a breakdown
of such amounts by Boards, Commissions and Departments; a break-

requested, the Chief Administrative Officer is hereby urged to furnish
this Board with a recommendation designed to reduce the number of

Increase of Fares by Municipal Railway
(Series of 1939)
Supeivisor Green presented Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas. The increasing need for mass transportation facilities in
MONDAY. APRIL 20. 1942 691
San Francisco because of tire shortages due to the war is creating an
intolerable situation so far as it concerns that portion of the public
which must use such facilities; and
Whereas, It appears on the basis of increased use of these mass trans-
portation facilities, even before the effects of the tire shortage have
made themselves fully felt, that there will be much heavier demands
upon the services of these agencies in the immediate future; and
Whereas, The equipment now appears to be inadequate to meet these
increasing needs, particularly with reference to Municipal Railway,
which is reported to be using all the equipment it now owns during the
peak hours of service; and
Whereas, These new demands must be met and the surplus funds of
Municipal Railway available for purchase of new equipment have been
exhausted by recent purchases approved by this Board of Supervisors;
and
Whereas. Under the Charter no funds other than bond funds or
profits may be used for extension of Municipal Railway services; now,
therefore, be it
Resolved. That the Board of Supervisors request of the Public Utili-
ties Commission a report on the possible effects of an increase in the
fares charged by Municipal Raihvay with particular reference to meet-
ing these new wartime demands and that such report shall contain an
estimate of the results of an increase to 6 cents and an estimate of the
results of an increase to 7 cents, including the possibilities of the
advantages to be enjoyed from establishment of the universal transfer;
and. be it
Further Resolved. That this Board of Supervisors urge upon the
Public Utilities Commission the speediest possible completion of this
report to the end that this Board of Supervisors shall be fully informed
as to the needs and effects for such fare increase should it subsequently
come before this Board.

Resolutions adopted by the Oakland City Council, and by the Board
ot Suptivisors of Alameda County, opposing the Reber Plan, were
also presented and read to the Board.
Following the presentation of the foregoing Resolutions. Mr. James
McElroy. President of the Oakland Port Commission. Mr. Hassler. City
Manager. Oakland. Mr. Irving Kahn. Member of the Mayor's Committee,
Mr. Bert Fernhoff. City Attorney. Oakland, and the City Attorney of
Emeryville, all addressed the Board, objecting to the Reber plan, dis-
counting many of the advantages claimed for the Reber Plan, and
the benefits to be derived therefrom, especially to the East Bay com-
munities.
Supervisor Roncovieri. addressing the Board, announced fhat his
impression gained from remarks of East Bay representatives, was that
their chief objection was against the proposed system of locks and the
resulting effect from disaster thereto.
Whereupon. Mr. Reber pointed out that there were six locks pro-
posed, not just one. and he answered more or less in detail, other ob-
jections raised.
Committee of the Whole Arises
Supervisor Mead, seconded by Supervisor Shannon, moved that the
Committee of the Whole rise and report.
Xo objection, an dso rodered.
Resolution No , as follows:
(Series of 1939)
Whereas. This Board of Supervisors by Resolution No. 2241 (Series
of 1939) has urged that legislation be introduced in the Congress of
the United States providing for an investigation of the Reber "San
Francisco Bay Project," and
Whereas. The Reber Plan contemplates — -
1. The construction of salt water barriers in the form of rock
and fill dams, so constructed as to carry railway lines and
highways, one just south of and paralleling the San Francisco
Bay Bridge and the other running from Marin County to
Contra Costa County at the southerly end of San Pablo Bay
thus forming two great lakes with an inexhaustible supply
of fresh water for San Francisco Bay communities and re-
sulting in a substantially increased deep-water harbor line.
2. The construction of locks and a fresh water ship channel
to permit access of ships into ports or anchorage in the im-
pounded waters, which action, incidentally, cleans the hulls
of deep water ships, thus obviating the necessity for dry-
docking for that purpose.
3. The reclamation of large areas of land to be utilized for in-
dustrial sites.
4. Increased pier space for transports and other deep-water
ships.
5. The reclamation of land for and construction of a modern
and strategically located submarine base.
6. The reclamation of land for and construction of a modern
and strategically located naval base.
7. The reclamation of land for and consti-uction of a modern
and strategically located torpedo boat base.
8. The reclamation of land for and construction of modern,
adequate and strategically located air bases and an airport
terminal.
9. Increased deep water space for anchorage of naval ships.
Whereas. The San Francisco Bay Area with its incomparable natural
advantages and its industrial and transportation facilities being.

694 FRIDAY. APRIL 24, 1942
essentially, the logical base for effective offensive operations in the
war against .Japan and conversely the area most vital in defense, it
is apparent that not only should immediate action be taken to make it
impregnal)le but that its resources and facilities should be developed
to maximum utilization, and
Whereas, Although under normal conditions it might be contended
that execution of the Reber Plan would constitute a local improvement
such a consideration has no meiit now. with the imperative need for
the contemplated military, naval, productive and protective facilities
which constitute major items in the project, and
Whereas, Because time is of the essence in this war. expeditious
and decisive action should be taken upon any proposal that is con-
ducive to its early and successful conclusion in victory for the allies;
now. therefore, be it
Resolved. That this Board of Supervisors, having met in special
session this Friday, April 24. 1942. at 2:00 o'clock, P. M., has given
serious consideration to this very important project and now urges
the authorities having jurisdiction over the matter to take prompt
and decisive investigative action on the Reber Plan, as it will affect
the entire Bay Region, to the end that if found feasible its undertaking
may be recommended and commenced at an early date.
Discussion
Supervisor Mead, in discussing the foregoing Resolution, which he
had just presented, asked the representatives from Oakland if they
could see any harm if the Board of Supervisors should memorialize the
proper authorities to investigate the proposed Reber Plan. He agreed
in part, he stated, with the gentlemen from Oakland, that the proposed
project could not have any matei'ial effect on the present war. but
he was thoroughly convinced, although he hoped he was wrong, that
this will not be the last war. Howevei', be did believe it would be wise
to request the proper authorities to make a study of the proposed plan
and then let the people know their reactions. Such investigation
should be made with the thought that the people would be guided by
the recommendations.
Supervisor O'Gara objected to immediate consideration of the Reso-
lution. He believed the meeting should close on the note that San
Francisco wants to cooperate with its East Bay neighbors, and to as-
sure them that San Francisco does not want to do anything not for the
common good of San Francisco Bay area. For that reason, it would be
his suggestion that because of the magnitude of the project, before the
Hoard adopts the Resolution it be i-eferred eithei' to a special com-
mittee or to the County. State and National Affairs Committee, for
hearings and conferences with proper repiesentatives of the commun-
ities to be affected and find out exactly what objections there are to
the proposal.
Mr. Beit Fernhoff. City Attorney. Oakland announced that such
plan would be welcome and he would be glad to confer with the Com-
mittee from San Francisco at any time.
Thereupon. Supervisor O'CJara. seconded by Supervisor Roncovieri.
moved that the Resolution be referred to a special committee, and that
the committee conduct proper bearings before recommending the
Resolution back to the Board.
No objection, and so ordered.
Colonel Ludell. on behalf of the Commanding Officer. Port of Em-
l)arkation, called attention to the army's interest in the matter, as it
is in any matter aflecting army activities, and that the War Depart-
ment must concur in niiything iiertaining to the harbor.

(Called out of Police Committee on motion of Supervisor Brown.)
Mayor Requested to Call Meeting of Citizens Committee for the
Purpose of Organization of the San Francisco Home Guard
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No , as follows:
p*. Whereas, It is generally recognized that in the event of the invasion
of the Pacific Coast, it is probable San Francisco will be among the
first cities to be attacked; and
Whereas, Due to its exposed position, our City is exceedingly vul-
nerable to such attack by enemy forces; and
Whereas, Although Civilian Defense has been adequately organized
to take care of non-combatant types of resistance to attack, no provision
has thus far been made to augment with local effort the combatant
forces which will be opposed to the enemy; and
Whereas, Large numbers of San Francisco citizens have been and
Avill be non-qualified through disability, age, or other basis for defer-
ment, to become members of the military forces of the United States;
and
Whereas, Such non-qualified citizens are nonetheless capable of taking
part in home defense; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors does hereby heartily en-
dorse the creation of a Home Guard for San Francisco, said Home
Guard to be made up entirely of San Francisco residents and citizens,
( 697 )
698 MONDAY, APRIL 27, 1942

this immediate territory by enemy forces; and be it
Further Resolved, That the Mayor is requested to call a meeting of a

however, relinquished the floor in favor of Mr. Theodore Roche.
Mr. Theodore Roche, in addressing the Board, stated that he con-
sidered it to be a great privilege to be afforded the opportunity of
participating in these proceedings bringing into existence such a
committee. "I have known Judge Golden for many years," he stated.
"I can, in a brief sentence, indicate my conception of his life. During
his life he was honored for his splendid character and outstanding
reputation; he was esteemed and revered because of his scholarly at-
tainments both literary and legal; he was respected because of his
exalted patriotism; he was beloved because of his simplicity, humane-
ness ancl his gentleness. This committee and the medal it will control
will keep alive in the hearts of the men hereafter to follow, the memory
of a splendid citizen."
Rabbi Bernstein, on being granted the privilege of the floor, stated
that he considered Mr. Golden as a fine example of the traditions of
his own people and of his country. It will be a greater honor, he con-
tinued, to the community than to his memory, if his name is preserved
in this particular way.
Supervisor O'Gara paid tribute to the memory of Judge Golden,
stating that he knew Judge Golden as an attorney and as a Judge.
Judge Golden was his friend. He was a great humanitarian and a
tolerant man, and he hoped the Board would FinaUy Pass the fore-
going Bill by a unanimous rising vote.
Supervisor Shannon moved Final Passage. He had intended, he
stated, to bring out the point just mentioned by Rabbi Bernstein.
That was the purpose of this legislation. Further words are now un-
necessary.
Motion seconded by Supervisors Mead and 0"Gara.
Supervisor Colman. thereupon, stated that as a lifelong friend, he
was most happy to take a part in passing the proposed legislation.
Thereupon, the foregoing Bill was
Filially Passed by the following vote:

standard."

Resolution No , as follows:
Resolved, That the State Board of Equalization in the granting of
liquor permits in the area bounded by Ellis. California, Gough and
Fillmore Streets, be respectfully requested to look fully into the charac-
ter of the applicant, the purpose of the business to be entered into, the
character and type of building to be used l)y the applicant, and whether
in the opinion of the State Board of Equalization it comes within the
meaning of the term "sub-standard" and, if so, that the application
be looked upon with disfavor until such time as the rehabilitation of
the Japanese Quarter is under way.
Discussion
Supervisor MacPhee, member of the Public Buildings, Lands and
City Planning Committee, explained the foregoing Resolution, prepared
and presented by the Committee itself, pursuant to request by people
in the district affected.
Supervisor MacPhee, in reply to questioning by Supervisors O'Gara.
stated that neither the Fillmore Street Merchants Association nor
any other improvement organizations in the district had been notified
of any hearing on the matter.
Thereupon, Supervisor O'Gara moved that further consideration be
postponed until Monday, May 11, 1942, and that the Fillmore Street
Merchants Association, and other interested oi'ganizations and persons
be notified so they can be present in order that the Board can have a
full expression of their views.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Shannon, with the understanding
that the matter be sent back to committee in the meantime.
Whereupon, Supervisor O'Gara announced that he would accept, as
his original motion, the suggestion that the matter be re-referred to
Committee.
No objection, and so ordered.
Re-reference to Committee
Congress of the United States Memoralized to Grant Moratorium on
Mortgages on Japanese Owned and Japanese Occupied Properties
Within the City and County of San Francisco.
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No as follows:
Resolved, That this Board of Supervisors memoralize the Congress
of the United States to give favoi'able consideration to a moratorium
on mortgages on .Japanese owned and Japanese occupied properties
within the City and County of San Francisco evacuated by reason of
the present national emergency.
Discussion
Supervisor Mead objected to the foregoing Resolution, inciuiring
if such moratoriums have been granted to our own American people
serving in our army, and if pioperties in Japan but owned by Americans,
are ))eing given similar considei-ation. "Before we lean over backwards,"
he continued, "in doing enemy aliens favors, we should ascertain
whether our people in Japan, who may own property there, are being
given consideration in respect to their property. Until we have that
information I am going to oppose this."
Supervisor MacPhee announced that about lifty per cent of the prop-
erty in the Japanese district was owned by citizens, but leased by
Japanese. The purpose of this Resolution was to help prevent those
owners, as well as the Japanese themselves, from losing their properties
through possible foreclosures.
MONDAY, APRIL 27, 1942 737
Supervisor O'Gara announced that he would oppose this Resolution,
because of ambiguitits contained therein. As soon as the evacuation
of the Japanese has been completed the Army will do the same thing
to Italian and German aliens. This is a problem for the federal gov-
ernment to handle. It is not the time for the Board to take any action.
Thereupon, on the statement by Supervisor Uhl that the proposed
Resolution had come from various organizations in the district, but
that he would like to see the matter re-referred to committee, and
no objection being made to the suggestion, the Chair re-referred the
Resolution to the Public Buildings, Lands and City Planning Com-
mittee.
Adopted
The following recommendations of the Public Utilities Committee
were taken up:
Present: Supervisors Meyer, Roncovieri.
Approving Contemplated Action of Public Utilities Commission En-
tering Into a Contract With Defense Plant Corporation for Dis-
posal of Hetch Hetchy Hydro-Electric Energy.
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No. 2595, as follows:
Resolved. That pursuant to the request contained in Resolution No.
4999 of the Public Utilities Commission, this Board of Supervisors
hereby approves the contemplated action of said Commission in enter-
ing into an agreement with the Defense Plant Corporation, an Agency
of the United States Government, under the tei-ms of which the City
shall obligate itself for a period of 5 years, with the right of Deefnse
Plant Corporation to terminate the agreement on 30 days' written notice,
to deliver at the City's transmission lines all hydro-electric energy
developed on the Hetch Hetchy Project to be used by said corporation
for the operation of an aluminum plant which the corporation is to
erect at its own cost. The agreement shall provide that Defense Plant
Corporation will pay to the City 4. 878 mills per kilowatt hour for all
energy used in said plant. The amount of energy generated at the
Moccasin and Early Intake Plants of the City is insufficient to supply
the entire needs of the aluminum plant to be constructed, and an
appropriate contract is to be entered into between Pacific Gas and
Electric Company and the Public Utilities Commission in behalf of the
City for supplying by said Pacific Gas and Electric Company the addi-
tional energy needed.
After explanation by Mr. E. G. Cahill. Manager of Utilities, the fore-
going Resolution was
Adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Colman, Gallagher, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara,
Roncovieri, Shannon. Uhl— 9.
Absent: Supervisors Brown, Green — 2.
Adopted
Requesting Public Utilities Commission to Report As to Possible
Effect of Increase in Municipal Railway Fares
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No. 2596, as follows:
Whereas, The increasing need for mass transportation facilities in
San Francisco because of tire shortages due to the war is creating an
intolerable situation so far as it concerns that portion of the public
which must use such facilities; and
Whereas, It appears on the basis of increased use of these mass trans-
portation facilities, even before the effects of the tire shortage have
made themselves fully felt, that there will be much heavier demands
upon the services of these agencies in the immediate future; and
738 MONDAY, APRIL 27. 1942
Whereas, The etiuipnient now appears to be inadequate to meet these
increasing needs, particularly with reference to Municipal Railway,
which is reported- to be using all the equipment it now owns during the
peak hours of service; and
Whereas, These new demands must be met and the surplus funds of
Municipal Railway available for purchase of new equipment have been
exhausted by recent purchases approved by this Board of Supervisors;
and
Whereas, Under the Charter no funds other than bond funds or
profits may be used for extension of Municipal Railway services; now,
therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors request of the Public Utili-
ties Commission a report on the possible effects of an increase in the
fares charged by Municipal Railway with particular reference to meet-
ing these new wartime demands and that such report shall contain an
estimate of the results of an increase to 6 cents and an estimate of the
results of an increase to 7 cents, including the possibilities of the
advantages to be enjoyed from establisliment of the universal transfer;
and, be it
Further Resolved, That this Board of Supervisors urge upon the
Public Utilities Commission the speediest possible completion of this
report to the end that this Board of Supervisors shall be fully informed
as to the needs and effects for sucli fare increase should it subsequently
come before this Board.
Adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Colman, Gallagher, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara,
Roncovieri. Shannon, Uhl — 9.
Absent: Supervisors Brown, Green — 2.

Discussion
Supervisor MacPhee, in explaining the foregoing Bill, reported that
it was the result of conference held in the Mayor's Office at which the
Mayor, Members of the Finance Committee, Supervisor Roncovieri
and representatives of various organizations met. No objection was
expiesscd to the proposal at that meeting. The Bill was approved by
his Honor, the Mayor, by the Finance Committee, and by Supervisor
Roncovieri, who had worked with the committee. It provides for Salary
Standardization, based on the 1930 salary schedules, as amended and
extended by the Civil Service Commission.
MONDAY. APRIL 27. 1942 755
Supervisor O'Gara moved that inasmuch as the Bill had not appeared
on the Calendar, and consequently he had had no opportunity of study-
ing it. or to learn the attitude of the various civic organizations with
respect to it. he would move that consideration l)e postponed for one
week.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Uhl in order to get the motion before
the Board.
Privilege of the Floor
Mr. William H. Nanry, representing the Bureau of Governmental
Research. Mho, on motion by Supervisor O'Gara was granted the privi-
lege of the floor, stated that as far as he knew the Municipal Con-
ference Committee had not considered any phase of salary standardi-
zation except piecemeal standardization, to which it had registered its
objections. The Municipal Conference Committee has had no oppor-
tunity to study this plan, nor has any other organization had the oppor-
tunity to point out in dttail whether the 1930 rates are in accordance
with the Charter provisions.
Supervisor MacPhee, in reply to Mr. Nanry. stated that undoubtedly
there are some inequities which the Bureau of Governmental Research
would not approve. However, unless this is approved, and passed,
the Board will be right back again with piecemeal standardization.
The matter should be passed once for all.
Privilege of the Floor
Mr. John O'Connell, on being granted the privilege of the floor,
stated that the proposed schedules were not satisfactory to the people
whom he represented. The report was submitted to the Board in 1930,
and was turned down. It is discriminatory. Some of the people get
nothing except what they received back in 1930.
Supervisor Roncovieri expressed his opposition to any delay, as
proposed. Salary Standardization must be adopted, once and for all,
he stated. We have been tinkering with it for years. We have side-
stepped it. We did try once, and the people threw the result of our
work into the discard. Now we should get standardization behind us.
Standardization is not a static thing. Amendments can and will be
proposed, but to oppose standardization is to remain in status quo.
Everyone present in the Mayor's Office agreed that this is the only
way to settle the matter. That it is perfect, nobody agrees, or ever will
agree. We cannot make a salary standardization that is static, but we
can cure injustices where employees receive less than the entrance
salaries while others are getting the maximum salaries of theri classi-
fications. If salary standardization is not adopted such injustices will
be perpetuated. Since, under the Charter provisions this matter is
subject to referendum, and does not become effective until thirty days
after Final Passage, it will be at least forty days before it does become
effective. For that reason there can be no delay if we are to have
salary standardization by the beginning of the new fiscal year. Salary
standardization should be adopted. If anything is wrong in this par-
ticular Bill it can be cured.
Supervisor Uhl expressed surprise at both Mr. O'Connell's and Mr.
Nanry 's disagreement with the Mayor's recommendations. However, he
suggested that the Board, at the conclusion of the day's business, recess,
to reconvene either on Wednesday or Thursday, at which time any
interested groups may appear and express their views on the matter.
Supervisor O'Gara, thereupon, announced that he favored salary
standardization, but he did not want to vote blindly on this proposal,
and he inquired if the proposed delay in action would afford sufficient
time for study of the proposal by interested organizations.
Mr. Nanry, in reply, doubted if the suggested delay would be suf-
ficient. There are many organizations other than the Bureau of Govern-
mental Research that were interested in this matter.
Supervisor MacPhee, in answering objections, held that there were
756 MONDAY, APRIL 27. 1942
those who objected to piecemeal standardization, and who did not
want standai'dization as a whole. This matter should have been adopted
twelve years ago.
Mr. Grover O'Connor, representing the San Francisco Municipal
Civil Service Association, on being .granted the piivilege of the floor,
agreed that the proposed ordinance probably would not cure all the
evils that exist, but it will l)e a definite step forward. The schedule
has, in fact, alieady bten approved l)y the voters in their adoption of
the present chartei-. There should l)e no delay in passing the ordinance.
Postponement Defeated
Thereupon, the roll was called and the motion to postpone considera-
tion for one week was defeated by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Colman, O'Gara — 2.
Noes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, Ronco-
vieri. Shannon, Uhl — 8.
Absent: Supervisor Brown — 1.
Explanation of Votes
Supervisor Mead, in explanation of his intended vote on the pro-
posed salary standardization, stated he was sorry that representatives
of labor were not present at the meeting in the Mayor's office. Every-
one at the meeting seemed to be in accord with the proposal. If the
Board should attempt any further piecemeal standardization it will
be vetoed by the Mayor, and any attempt to override the Mayor's
veto will l)e wasted effort. An attempt is 1)eing made now to do some-
thing for the majority of the people involved. He would vote "Aye"
on the proposed salary standardization legislation.
Supervisor MacPhee pointed out that Supervisors could vote "Aye"
on the Bill today. It will come back to the Board two weeks later at
which time further discussion can be had and a further vote taken.
Supervisor Roncovieri again reminded the Board that if the legisla-
tion is adopted, it is not static; it can be amended at any time and
any inequalities can be corrected. Salary standardization, though,
can be adopted. It is the only way by which justice can be had by
employees of the City and County of San Francisco.
Supervisor Colman. in explanation of his vote, which would be "No"
stated that he was influenced to some extent by the fact that substan-
tial organizations whose members will pay their full share of the
taxes, have not been given a hearing. That is not their fault. It is
also a policy of the Board, that has l)een followed very closely, that
when any citizens have not been heard on a measure, that action be
postponed in order to give them their day in court. In continuing.
Supervisor Colman stated, he favored standardization, but he favored
standardization that, in his opinion, was really standardization. The
charter states that we must not pay more than the prevailing wage on
the outside foi- similar duties. It was his opinion that the salai'ies set
up in this proposed standardization ordinance were decidedly out of
line. It is not a question of right or wrong, but it is a fact that starting
wages for elevator operators and janitors, on the outside, are not $145,
nor for stenographers not $155. If we standardize we should not take
the 1930 scale, l)ut should lind out the wages being paid today on the
outside. Under the terms of the charter we cannot pay moie than those
wages. In his own business, he handled labor relations, and has always
tried to be fair and understanding, but in this case he is dealing with
taxpayers' money. For those leasons he was not in favor of the pro-
l)os('d salary standardization mi asuie. Delay nuiy prevent adoption in
time lor the coming l)udg( t. For that he was sorry, but he did not
consider himself any more to blame than any other citizen of San Fran-
cisco. Because standardization has not been adopted for twelve years
is no reason to lush into it now. It is true that wages paid to institu-
tional b('l|) are vei'y low. l.ul tlicy are higher than ai'c being paid for
MONDAY, APRIL 27, 1942 757
similar duties performed for those iu private institutions. Today is
no time to discuss wages. Today there is a shortage of labor, with
corresponding- increases in prices. Later on the pendulum will swing
the other way. and the city never adjusts wages downward. A thing
ol this magnitude should not be rushed into, even if it has been ne-
glected for twelve years. He would vote "No" on the Bill.
Supervisor Mead disagreed with remarks by Supervisor Colman,
pointing out that although he had heard the same statement for the
past six years that he had been a member of the Board, before he
had become a member, city emplyoees for several years had accepted
voluntarily, at first, and later had forced on them, reductions in
salaries.
Supervisor Colman, in reply thereto, stated that both Supervisor
Mead's and his own statement were correct. City employees had
received reductions in their salaries, which, he believed were now
fully restored, but salaries have never been standardized, and never
will be standardized downward.
Supervisor O'Gara announced that he would vote "No" for the
reason that he refused to vote a $300,000 increase of salaries without
adequate hearing before any committee or before the Board. He was
not binding himself to vote "No" on Final Passage, however. He would
like the specific objections of both Mr. Nanry and Mr. O'Connor to
any particular items in the proposed schedules, and he would request
Mr. 0"Connell to submit any cases where he thinks salaries are too
low. If the whole picture, regardless of Mr. Nanry's objections, ap-
pears to be reasonable, he would be reasonable. Otherwise he would
vote against the proposal on Pinal Passage. He favored the general
idea of salary standardization, but he desired to be satisfied that gen-
erally speaking, there are no overpayments in this city government,
as compared to private industry.
Supervisor Roncovieri, in answering statements made, stated it
to be true that there would be some $300,000 additional in the budget
for the coming fiscal year. But it will be in the budget anyway,
placed there by the Mayor. There seems to be a fear that San Fran-
cisco will not reduce salaries when the time comes. He, himself,
hoped the time would never come, but those who feel reductions should
l)e made have a perfect right to bring in amendments for reductions at
any time. However, the Board should adopt salary standardization
once and for all. It will not be perfect. There will always be criticism.
But inequalities and errors can be corrected at any time.
Supervisor Green, in discussing salary standardization, remarked
that we are not living in 1930; we are living in 1942. He would like
to see standardization that is correct now.
Mr. William Henderson, speaking for the Civil Service Commission,
pointed out that studies based on current wages paid in private em-
ployment and in other governmental agencies would require at least a
year. It took about eighteen months to complete the studies ntcessary
to compile the 1938 schedules.
Supervisor MacPhee explained that he intended to vote "Aye," days
and weeks of study having convinced him that it was the proper
thing to do.
Supervisor Uhl announced his intention to vote "Aye." By so doing
increases in the budget will he prevented. However, he was not voting
so with the idea tliat he would be increasing any salaries.
Supervisor Green stated he intended to vote "Aye," because he could
not vote any other way. There should be a better system and a fairer
way to determine proper salaries than is now in existence.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the proposed salary standardi-
zation ordinance was
758 MONDAY, APRIL 27. 1942

Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, Ronco-

In Memoriam — Lieutenant Harry James Brown
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor MacPhee presented Resolution No. 2600, as follows:
Whereas, Almighty God in His infinite wisdom has summoned Harry
James Brown. Lieutenant in the United States Army, to his everlasting
reward; and
Whereas, Although Lieutenant Harry .lames Brown, a native and
life-long resident of San Francisco, has perished in line of duty, his
memoiy will ever be cherished by those he leaves behind as an inspira-
tion and as the epitome of self-sacrifice and loyal devotion to his coun-
try— the daunthss and unselfish spirit of our men who cheei-fully
abandon carefully constiucted and prospering careers and who leave
their familits and possessions, in order that the right of free men and
free women to live may be preserved; and
Whereas. The many friends of Lieutenant Harry James Brown, who
MONDAY, APRIL 27. 1942 759
were privileged to know him and love him for his kindly, unostenta-
tious manner, uncompromising honesty, sincerity and simplicity, join
his grifcving family in deeply mourning his passing; now, therefore,
be it

Remarks by Supervisors
Supervisor Shannon after the presentation of the foregoing Resolu-
tion, paid brief tribute to the memory of the late John A. McGregor,
former Supervisor. Mr. McGregor, stated Supervisor Shannon, served
San Francisco as Supervisor from 1920 to 1924. He was an outstanding-
gentleman in every respect and was a member of the Finance Commit-
tee. A great deal of important legislation w-as considered during his
term of office. He was active in the Boy Scouts, and was outstanding
in his aid to any civic betterment. We have lost a valuable citizen.
Supervisor Colman announced that he remembered with great pleasure
the four years spent with John McGregor, as a member of the Board
of Supervisors. He was a very fine gentleman, constructive, courteous,
and very intelligent. We are losing a splendid citizen.
Supervisor Roncovieri, in speaking of the late John McGregor, stated
that he knew of no man who ever served in public life in San Francisco
who was moi'e painstaking and more kindly. "The elements were so
mixed in him that the world might say 'Here lies a man.' "

762 MONDAY, APRIL 27, 1942
Whereas, Richard W. Costello, always unselfish and willing to give
freely of his time and means for the advancement of his l)eloved city,
was prominently identified with nearly every worthwhile project in
this City, and
Whereas, Because of the need for expert guidance in civic, fraternal

cisco as have few other citizens in private life, and

countless numbers who knew and accorded him the highest respect in
his chosen field, and who loved him for his kindness and generous help,

(Series of 1939)
Supervisor O'Gara presented Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, In the interest of economy, efficiency and increased pro-
duction, industrial plants throughout the Nation, including several

Presentation of Proposed Budget and Annual Appropriation
Ordinance for Fiscal Year 1942-1943
The Clerk announced that the Proposed Budget and Annual Appro-
priation Ordinance for the Fiscal Year 1942-1943 had been presented
bv his Honor, the Mavor, on May 1, 1942:
May 1, 1942.
To the Honorable
The Board of Supervisors
City Hall
San Francisco, California.
Gentlemen: , '
As required by Section 72 of the Charter, there have been trans-
mitted to your Honorable Board this day the following:
The consolidated 1942-43 budget estimates for all depart-
ments and offices of the City and County.
The proposed 1942-43 budget.
The detailed estimate of all 1942-43 revenues of each de-
partment.
The estimate of the 1942-43 requirements to meet bond in-
terest and reremption and other fixed charges and revenues
applicable thereto.
The draft of the 1942-43 annual appropriation ordinance
prepared by the Controller.
Also in accordance with the provisions of Section 72 of the Charter.
I comment hereunder upon the financial program incorporated in the
( 767 )
768 MONDAY, MAY 4, 1942
1942-43 budget, the important changes as compared with the previous
budget, and the bond issues recommended by me. My financial program
for 1942-43 can be summed up under four major points.
(1) The continuation of my policy adopted last year of allowing
the second one-third of accrued salary increases with the intention
of bringing all employees in the 1943-44 budget to the full salary to
which they will be entitled by length of service, under the rates set
forth in the April 9, 1930 salary schedule, which is recognized as to
maxima by the 1932 Charter.
(2) With respect to new positions, I have allowed only those po-
sitions which have been demonstrated to be essential to the proper
operation of the departments affected.
(3) Proposed expenditures for capital improvements have been
eliminated except in those cases where such expenditures are necessary
to preserve investments already made.
(4) All departmental requests for equipment and for operating ex-
penses have been reduced as much as it was deemed advisable in order
not to cripple the departments.
There were many expenditures of meritorious nature recommended
by the various department heads which, in the interest of economy, had
to be deferred in order to lessen the burden upon the taxpayer. The
President of the United States recently enunciated a war program which
includes the freezing of rents and other prices of various commodities.
It would not be fair to our taxpayers if we did not make a strenuous
effort to afford relief to them insofar as possible, and I have made
every effort in my budget recommendations to present a total which
should not require a substantial change in the tax rate for 1942-43;
this despite the mandatory requirements of government, as provided
in the Charter, the heavy increase in the cost of foodstuffs and materials
and supplies, and the needs of Civilian Defense which are discussed
in detail hereinafter.
The various departmental requests, as originally filed with me,
totalled $78,566,088 which represented an increase of $8,454,289 over the
1941-42 budget as finally adopted. I have reduced these requests by
$8,811,881, to a total of $69,754,207, or a reduction of $357,592 under the
1941-42 budget.
A comparison of the proposed 1942-43 budget with the 1941-42 budget
is as follows:
Proposed Adopted
for for
1942-43 1941-42 Decrease
Net budgets $69,754,207 $70,111,799 $ 357.592
Deduct provision for Civilian Defense
for comparative purposes 1,477,918 1,477,918
Balance for normal functions of gov-
ernment $68,276,289 $70,111,799 $ 1.835,510
This reduction in the allowances for the normal functions of gov-
ernment was made despite the heavy increases in the cost of food-
stuffs and supplies for our institutions, which also affects all other
departments of the city and county government.
I wish to call your attention to the fact that because of the failure
of the State Legislature to provide funds for the relief of the employable
unemployed— for many years the function of the State— it was neces-
sary again to include in the 1942-43 budget the sum of $400,000 for
this i)urpose. This represents about five cents in the tax rate and is
an unfaii- burden placed upon the local taxpayers by the failure of
the State to continue to take care of its obligations.
In comparing the proposed 1942-43 budget with the 1941-42 budget.
MONDAY, MAY 4, 1942 769
the following notable increases and decreases in appropriations are
observed:
Major Items of Increase:
Registrar of Voters $ 54,239
Health Department. Central Office $63,491
Laguna Honda Home 47,611
San Francisco Hospital 87,805
Hassler Health Home 55.760
254,667
City Planning Commission 68,915
Emergency Reserve Fund 264,363
Bond Interest and Redemption 129,039
Publicity and Advertising 20,000
Tax Judgments 38,664
Utilities, Lighting Streets and Buildings $ 27,316
Municipal Railway 122,540
Water 533.589
— 703,445
Retirement System 68,035
Major Items of Decrease — Including non-recurring items:
Fire Department— Equipment $ 172,008
Agricultural District No. lA 50,000
Engineering Department (Sewers) 269,290
Public Welfare Department 1,047,254
Park Department 46,955
Recreation Department 109,648
De Young Museum 39,740
W. P. A. Projects 50,000
Diorama Building 37,000
Utilities. Treasure Island Airport $27,000
Hetch Hetchy Water 88,241
115,241
Department of Education (tentative) 53,798
The increase in the budget of the Registrar of Voters is due to the
fact that there will be two elections in 1942-43 — the primary election
in August and the general election in November — as compared to one
election in the current year. This does not include the special bond
election in June for which separate funds were appropriated.
The increase in the Health Department is due in part to the proposed
opening of one new tuberculosis ward in the San Francisco Hospital,
but for the greater part is due to the tremendous increase in the cost
of foodstuffs and of materials and supplies which are necessary to the
proper operation of the San Francisco Hospital, the Hassler Health
Home, and the Laguna Honda Home.
This increase in the cost of foodstui¥s likewise affects the Sheriff's
department, the Police department, the Juvenile Detention Home,
and the Boys' Ranch School of the Juvenile Court. All departments of
the City and County are affected by the increase in materials and
supplies.
The increase in the budget of the City Planning Commission is
due to the fact that the majority ot sentiment appears to favor placing
the responsibility for traffic and transportation studies, as well as for
the formulating of a master plan, under the City Planning Commission
and the budget as recommended by the City Planning Commission
was approved by me as submitted.
I have requested an appropriation to the Emergency Reserve Fund
of the full amount allowable for this fund. I have two reasons for
recommending this increase: First, I believe there should be a sizable
fund to take care of any unforeseen contingency with respect to the
war emergency and I believe it to be better budgeting procedure not to
770 MONDAY, MAY 4, 1942
include a cushion or contingency fund with each department concerned
with civilian defense but rather to recommend for civilian defense
requirements the amount which our best judgment indicates, and to
include in the Emergency Reserve Fund enough to take care of any
additional needs that may develop; second, to provide a guaranty for
uninterrupted departmental operations in view of the fact that depart-
mental requests have been reduced considerably.
The increase in Bond Interest and Redemption requirements results
from the inclusion in the 1942-43 budget of the amount which will be
I'equired to meet the first redemptions on the defense bond issues which
it is anticipated will be approved by the voters at the special election
in June.
The increase in the Publicity and Advertising Fund, as recommended
by the Chief Administrative Officer, was approved for the reason that
in my opinion San Francisco now, as never before, is in need of proper
publicity to offset reports current throughout the nation which at
various times have pictured us as under bombing attacks, as burning
to the ground, or as a completely demoralized community.
Outstanding among the decreases in appropriations are those of
the Public Welfare Department. For the first time In many years the
requirements for categorical aids and direct relief show a decrease.
These decreases are reported to result from generally improved eco-
nomic conditions which have provided opportunities for many relief
clients and even for some on the Old Age Pension rolls to obtain em-
ployment. It Is reported that, unbelievable as it may sound, there
were 25 Old Age pensioners dropped from the rolls during March, 1942,
because they had obtained employment. Likewise, there has been an
improvement In the economic status of responsible relatives which
also has resulted in a decrease in the rolls. Decreases in the individual
aid categories are as follows:
Old Age Pensions $258,425
Blind Pensions 330,000
Widows' Pensions and Supplemental Aid 96,800
Direct Relief— unemployables 332,000
Direct Relief — employables 314,749
(Former S. R. A. cases)
The recommendation of the Bureau of Public Works, as approved by
the Chief Administrative Ofl!icer with respect to the new sewer con-
struction program, was decreased by me. The I'eason for this decrease
is that I am informed that due to priority restrictions on reinforcing
steel, it will not be possible to obtain this material for sewer work next
year and if the full amount, as recommended for the sewer program, had
been approved by me, the effect would be to freeze a considerable, sum
of money which would, of course, be reflected in the tax rate and in all
piobability could not be used. The sum of $100,000 was retained in the
budget for the sewer program, to provide for surveys, plans and speci-
fications dui'ing the next fiscal year.
One departmental budget has been deleted in Its entirety — that of
the Treasure Island Airpoit. The reason for this is that the Federal
Government has taken over Treasure Island and is operating it ex-
clusively for the benefit of the United States armed forces. All per-
sonnel of the City and County was withdrawn from Treasure Island on
Monday morning. April 27. 1942.
Water Department
The budget of the Water Department includes $(;43,000 for additions
and betterments. The largest item amounts to $280,000 and is for the
purpose of continuing a project begun last year for the construction
of a new outlet from San Andreas Lake. The Manager of Utilities deems
it vitally necessary to continue this im))rovement because of the fact
that the present tunnel is slowly collapsing, and the complete collapse
thereof would endanger the water supply of appi'oximately 40% of the

residents of Sau Francisco. In addition, the present outlet is located
athwart the San Andreas fault, which was the cause of the 1906 earth-
quake in San Francisco. Therefore, a new tunnel, south of the San
Andreas fault, is doubly necessary.
Other items recommended are as follows:
Normal extensions $150,000

Civilian Defense
Because of the state of war which exists between the United States
and the Axis Nations, it has become necessary to create a civilian de-
fense organization for the protection of the lives and property of our
citizens in the event of enemy attack. Although some $12,000 had been
appropriated prior to Pearl Harbor for the organizing of civilian de-
fense, it has only been since Pearl Harbor that the citizenry has been
sufficiently aroused to take an active part in civilian defense. In order
to provide adequate facilities for the registration and training of the
various civilian defense groups, such as the air raid wardens, auxiliary
firemen, auxiliary police, etc., and in order to provide, insofar as funds
available would permit, the most necessary equipment and supplies
for the protective agencies of government, it has been necessary to ex-
pend a considerable sum of money.
Up to date there has been provided by appropriation ordinances and
by the Emergency Reserve Fund (exclusive of amounts set aside for
civilian defense activities by the various utilities) the sum of $657,294.
These funds were provided from the following sources:
From the Emergency Reserve Fund $332,294
From the Public Welfare Department 225,000
From the appropriation for W. P. A. sponsor-
ship 100.000
Total - ^....$657,294
Of this sum there has been allocated for expenditures up to date
a total of $640,922. This leaves only $16,372 to carry civilian defense
activities until the end of this fiscal year when the new budget will be-
come effective and which includes provision for the estimated ex-
penditures for civilian defense for the fiscal year 1942-43.
In addition to the funds already allocated for civilian defense pur-
poses, there are two appropriation ordinances now before your honorable
liody providing respectively for an appropriation of $43,000 for the
purchase of steel helmets, and an appropriation of $22,000 for the
lui'iiishing of identification tags for school children.
In connection with the total funds allocated, your Honorable Board
has been furnished each month with a list of allocations made, the
purpose thereof, and the amount involved in each allocation. Because
of this, it is not deemed necessary to furnish a detailed breakdown of
such expenditures in this message.
In order that the Civilian Defense organization may continue to
function during the next fiscal year, it is necessary that an amount be
included in the 1942-43 budget to finance these activities. In addition
to the operation of the Civilian Defense Council, with its various rami-
fications, other departments of the City and County which are charged
with the protection of the health, property, and lives of our citizens
must be provided with funds for civilian defense requirements. The
total proposed expenditures for all departments for Civilian Defense
during 1942-43 are as follows:
Civilian Defense Council $ 280,655
Police Department 9,920
Fire Department 346,960
Electricity Department 5,492
772 MONDAY, MAY 4, 1942
Department of Public Health 35,258
Coroner 2,100
Calit'ornia Palace of the Legion of Honor 6,960
De Young Museum 8,700
Water Department 39,873
Hetch Hechy Water 37,000
Department of Education 70,000
$ 842,918
Bond Interest and Redemption: 1942-43: 635,000
Fire Equipment $360,000
Auxiliary Pumping Station 275,000
Total for 1942-43 $1,477,918
The total proposed expenditures for Civilian Defense, as shown
above, represents well over IS cents in the tax i-ate, but I believe your
Honorable Board will agree that these expenditures are absolutely
essential.
With respect to the Civilian Defense budget for the Fire Depart-
ment, a lump sum was set up to provide for temporary personnel with
the proviso that these funds will not be used until the auxiliary pump-
ing equipment to be loaned by the Federal Government and to be pur-
chased from local funds, including the proposed bond issues, are de-
livered in San Francisco.
Proposed Bond Issues
The two bond issues which will be voted on at the special election
on June 9, 1942 are necessitated because of the requirements of civilian
defense for equipment and for an auxiliary pumping station at Lake
Merced. This equipment is over and above that which is provided in the
Civilian Defense budget. It is likewise in addition to the equipment
which is intended to be purchased before June 30. such as a portion of
the requirements for steel helmets and for identification tags for school
children, which are now l)efore your Board in the form of appropria-
tion ordinances for your consideration. The estimated requirements
for interest and the requirements for redemption on these two issues
have been included in the 1942-43 budget. In order to reduce interest
charges, and to conform as closely as possible to a pay-as-you-go basis,
it is proposed to start redemption on both issues in the next fiscal year.
The $3,000,000 issue for fire equipment will be redeemed over a period
of 10 years and the $1,250,000 issue for the construction of a pumping
station at Lake Merced will be redeemed over a period of five years.
Bond Interest and Redemption
The 1942-43 requirements for the bond interest and redemption on
the issues now outstanding decreased $505,961 under the requirements
for the current fiscal year. This decrease has been offset by the in-
clusion of $635,000 which is the estimated requirement for interest and
redemption on the two Civilian Defense Bond issues.
The requirements from taxes for bond interest and redemption are
increased for 1942-43 due to the fact that for the current year there was
a surplus item of $700,000 available from the School Bond Fund for this
purpose, but such a suiplus does not exist for 1942-43, which will affect
next fiscal year's tax rate.
Revenues
This budget will be financed by revenues accruing from taxes levied
and by revenues accruing from sources other than taxation. In sub-
mitting the estimate of anticipated revenues for the fiscal year 1942-43.
as rc(iuired by Section 69 of the Charter, the Controller under date of
March 16. 1942, stated. "The statement of anticipated revenues is neces-
sarily subject to revision prior to transmittal of your budget recom-
mendations to the Board of Supervisors and will have to be revised, of
MONDAY, MAY 4, 1942 773
course, prior to the adoption of the budget and also prior to the levying
of the tax rate. This statement does not include an estimate of revenue
from the sale of Hetch Hetchy power." However, since March 16 I
have been in touch with officials in Washington, and negotiations for
the use of Hetch Hetchy Power by a defense industry have progressed
to a point which indicates that the I'evenue from Hetch Hetchy will be
saved to the city for next year, and therefore the Controller has included
revenue from this source in the budget now before your Honorable
Body.
The task of estimating revenues for a period which will not terminate
until June 30. 1943 — 14 months from now — is a most difficult one,
and it is obvious that these revenue estimates must be subject to
revision at the time of the adoption of the budget and again at the
time of adoption of the tax rate. However, based upon all information
now at hand, the 1942-43 budget as submitted should not require a sub-
stantial change in the tax rate for 1942-43 providing the assessment roll
remains the same as it is now.
In closing. I wish to express my appreciation for the splendid co-
operation and assistance rendered this office by the Controller and his
staff in the preparation of the 1942-43 budget.
Yours very truly.
ANGELO J. ROSSI,
Mayor.

Privilege of the Floor
Mr. Edmund G. Brown, Attorney, representing institutional workers,
called attention to the rates established for institutional workers in
the foregoing Bill, and pointed out that if the Bill should be Finally
Passed, the rates set up therein could not become effective because of
the passage of the complete salary standardization legislation at the
next meeting of the Board. The institutional workers, whom he rep-
resents, request that the Board again pass the salary standardization
Bill already Passed for Second Reading, but amended with respect to
Institutional Workers to provide for the rates already approved by
the majority of the Board.
Thereupon, Supervisor Roncovieri moved that the Salary Standardi-
zation Ordinance, as Passed for Second Reading at the meeting of April
27. 1942, be amended by substituting for rates set up for Institutional
Workers, increased rates previously approved by the Board, and that
the Salary Standardization Ordinance, as amended, be substituted for
the Bill on the Calendar.
Supervisor O'Gara, however, suggested that the Salary Ordinance
heretofore Passed for Second Reading, be taken up in its regular order
when it came before the Board for Final Passage, that it be Finally
Passed, and then it be amended immediately, and be again passed.
He stated that he desired to vote for increases for Institutional Workers,
but he was not in favor, nor could he vote at this time, for the entire
Salary Standardization Ordinance.
Supervisor Mead moved as a further amendment that Items S102, S104
and S106 be deleted, since they are per diem employments and should
he taken up in connection with later salary standardization legislation.
No objection, and so ordered.
Supervisor MacPhee opposed the suggestion by Supervisor O'Gara,
and urged that the matter be voted on without delay. To follow Super-
visor O'CJara's suggestion, he pointed out, would not give sufficient time
for the amended salary standardization ordinance to become effective
before the beginning of the coming fiscal year.
Amendments Approved
Thereupon, the roll was called and the proposed amendments (in-
serting increased rates for Institutional Workers, and deleting per diem
municipal railway employments) were approved by the following vote:
MONDAY, MAY 4, 1942 781
Aye?: Supervisors Gallagher. MacPhee. Mead. Meyer. Roncovieri,
Shannon. Uhl — 7.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman. O'Gara — 3.
Absent: Supervisor Green — 1.
Passage for Second Reading
Thereupon, the following Bill was taken up. as a substitute for Bill
No. 1671. heretofore Passed for Second Reading:
Fixing schedule of compensations to be paid employees of the City
and County of San Francisco in certain specified clasifications sub-
»ject to Section 151 of the Charter to become effective July 1, 1942.
(Series of 1939)
Bill No. 1699. Ordinance No , as follows:
An ordinance fixing a schedule of compensations to be paid em-
ployees of the City and County of San Francisco in certain specified
classifications which are subject to the provisions of Section 151 of the
Charter and providing that said schedule shall become effective
July 1, 1942.
Be it ordained by the People of the City and County of San Fran-
cisco, as follows:
Section 1. For the purposes of this ordinance the term "schedule of
compensations" shall be construed and held to mean the 1930 schedule
of compensations proposed by the Civil Service Commission, as revised,
amended and specifically set forth in this ordinance.
Section 2. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 151 of the Charter,
the schedule of compensations set forth herein shall, from and after
the effective date of this ordinance, determine and fix the salaries,
wages and compensations for the several classifications of employment
in the San Francisco municipal service hereinafter enumerated.
Section 3. Employees legally occupying positions in the following
classifications, designated by the Civil Service Commission, shall re-
ceive commencing July 1. 1942. those salaries and wages set forth in
the annual budget as recommended by the Mayor and adopted by the
Board of Supervisors for the fiscal year 1942-1943. provided, however,
that no employee shall receive less than two-thirds of the increment
above his present salary, computed to the nearest dollar, to which he is
entitled on the basis of seniority in service for the fiscal year 1942-1943,
as indicated in the schedule of compensations set forth herein, pro-
vided, further, that the gross compensation for full time employees,
occupying positions subject to civil service, shall not be less than
$106.00 per month. Commencing July 1. 1943, and each year thereafter,
employees who are subject to the provisions of this ordinance shall
receive in full the salaries or wages, based upon seniority in service
provided for their particular classifications in the schedule of compen-
sations herein set forth.
Section 4. Employees entering the municipal service on or after
July 1. 1942. shall be paid the entrance rate provided for their particular
classifications in the schedule of compensations herein contained, pro-
vided, however, that no new employee shall be paid more than other
appointees then serving under regular Civil Service appointment in
the same classification under the same appointing officer.
Section 5. Employees who are promoted to higher classifications
shall enter such promotive classifications at the entrance rate fixed for
such classifications in the schedule of compensations herein contained,
provided, however, that if an appointee to a promotive position had,
in his former classification, received the equivalent or more than the
entrance salary provided in this ordinance for such promotive position,
such appointee shall enter such promotive class at that salary fixed
in the schedule of compensations, for such promotive classification,
which is in immediate excess of the salary which such employee
782 MONDAY, MAY 4, 1942
received immediately prior to his appointment to such promotive
classification.
Section 6. Salaries and wages set forth in the schedule of compen-
sations herein contained are gross compensations. Deductions shall
be made from such salaries or wages, as provided by law, for mainte-
nance or other accommodations and charges therefor shall be fixed
by law, provided, however, that no charge shall be made for mainte-
nance or other accommodations available to employees in public institu-
tions unless such employees actually receive such maintenance or
utilize such accommodations.
Wages fixed herein on a per hour oi- per diem rate are based upon
an eight-hour work day.
Compensations fixed herein on a monthly or weekly basis are for
full time service. The Board of Supervisors shall determine annually
the amount to be paid employees whose positions are established in
the annual salary ordinance as part-time positions.
Section 7. Seniority increments on the basis of years of service as
fixed herein shall be efliective beginning on the first day of July follow-
ing the anniversary of permanent appointment in the classification
to which the position of the employee is allocated.
Section 8. If the compensation paid as of June 30, 1942, to an
employee legally occupying a position allocated to a classification for
which a compensation schedule is herein fixed is higher than the
amount to which such employee is entitled under the said compensation
schedule, the employee shall continue to receive the salary he is receiv-
ing as of June 30, 1942.
Section 9. If it shall be determined by any court of competent
jui'isdiction that any salary or wage fixed in the schedule of compensa-
tions herein contained is contrary to the provisions of Section 151 of
the Charter such determination shall not affect the validity of any
other salary or wage fixed in said schedule of compensations.
Section 10. This ordinance shall take effect July 1, 1942.
Section 11. The compensation schedules for classification included
in Division B, Clerical Service, as set forth in the Civil Service Com-

Discussion
The following communication from his Honoi-, the Mayor, was pre-
sented and i-ead bv the CUrk:
May 4. 1942.
To the Honorable,
The Board of Supervisors,
City. Hall.
Gentlemen:
At the I'eciuest of the Civilian Defense Council there was submitttd
to the Finance Committee of your Board at its meeting on April 30th.
an ordinance providing for the compulsory wearing of an incombustible
identification tag by all childrtn of tlic city betw^eon the ages of six
months and eighteen years.
The purpose of this ordinance was to make sure that in the event of
any disaster during the present emergency, the children of the City
could be identified and lestortd to their parents should the disaster
cause the separation of children and parents.
I understand that the Finance Conunittee has forwarded the pro-
posed ordinance to your Honorable Hoard with a "Do Not Pass" recom-
mendation t'oi- the reason tbat the Paront-Tiacher Association had
agreed to obtain the tags and distril)ute them without expense to the
City, charging each child the actual cost of the tag.
I cannot speak too highly in appreciation of the unselfish services
which the Parent-Teacher Association is willing to render in this in-
stance. Subsequent to the said meeting of the Finance Committee a
MONDAY, MAY 4, 1942 823
delegation representing" the Parent-Teacher Association appeared in
my office and stated that their original plan was based on the belief
that municipal funds were not available for the purchase of these tags.
In addition, they stated that they were heartily in favor of the City
purchasing the tags, and that they were willing to aid the City in the
proper registration of all children in San Francisco.
As I have said, this ordinance has the approval of the Civilian De-
fense Council. It makes it mandatory on each parent or guardian of a
child between the ages of six months and eighteen years to see that
the child in his custody acquires and wears the identitication tag.
If these tags are not furnished by the City, it will be legally impossible
to make it mandatory that children wear them.
The Civilian Defense Council has given the matter the most careful
considesration and made a most exhaustive study of the whole problem.
I believe that a duty rests upon our City to see that our children should
be protected to the fullest extent, and that the amount required to carry
out this particular protective measure is so small when we take into
consideration its value to our children, that there should be no delay
in providing the necessary funds to do so.
If this ordinance is not passed responsibility for the failure to provide
such protection must rest upon those who had the opportunity of
passing it and failed to do so. And nothing could be more tragic than
in the event of a bombing that children may be killed, maimed or
separated fi'om their families without proper means of establishing
their identity by the wearing of identitication tags.
I most respectfully urge upon you the importance of acting favoi'ably
on the proposed ordinance.
Very truly yours,
ANGELO J. ROSSI,
Mayor.
Supervisor MacPhee reported on the hearing in Finance Committee,
stating that the Committee strongly favored the Parent-Teacher plan,
as it understood that plan, and for that reason had recommended that
me proposed ordinance be not passed.
Mrs. H. W. Thomas, representing the Parent-Teacher Association,
stated that there were some 109,000 children in the San Francisco
schools, who should have tags, and urged, because of the emergency,
that the legislation be passed.
Mr. Jack Helms, Director of Civilian Defense, explained to the Board,
the contemplated procedure for the registration of children and the
issuance of tags.
Mrs. Joseph Keenan, speaking for the Catholic parent group, explained
why there should be provision for noting on the tags the religion of
the children, especially since such designation is optional with the
parents.
Supervisor O'Gara. in expressing his views, stated that he believed
that the City should pay for the tags for children, and that the ordi-
nance should be passed, as presented. He was not impressed by any
action taken l)y other communities. As to religious designation, he
could not see why that should cause any dissension.
Supervisor Shannon moved, to conserve space on the tags, that the
Rill be amended by striking out the words "the place of residence of
said child, and" after the word "child." in the fourth line from the end
of Section 1. He could see no useful purpose in placing such information
on the tag, itself.
Motion seconded by Supervisor O'Gara.
Motion failed by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Colman, Green, MacPhee, O'Gara, Shannon — 5.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Mead, Meyer, Roncovieri, Uhl — fi.
824 MONDAY, MAY 4, 1942
Mr. Wm. H. Nanry, in reply to questioning as to the views of the
Bureau of Governmental Research, stated that his organization had
not considered the proposed legislation, but that he did not believe there
would be any objection thereto.
Supervisor Mead explained his vote, stating that the Finance Com-
mittee had been lead to believe that the Parent-Teacher Association had
started to do a job. It is obvious, now, that the committee had been
misinformed, and that it is not the desire of that organization to collect
the money for these tags. He would vote "Aye" on the matter. He
would reverse himself with respect to his stand in committee.
Supervisor MacPhee announced that the Finance Committee had
acted on what it thought was the wish of the Parent-Teacher Associa-
tion. Appaiently the matter was not clear to the members of the
Committee, and so the Committee's action was not in keeping with the
program advocated by the Parent-Teacher Association. Now it is
the opinion of the Parent-Teacher Association that the City and
County should provide identification tags for children. For that reason,
he would vote "Aye."
Supervisor Uhl announced that since the taxpayers are not repre-
sented before the Board he would not vote to spend $22,000 of the tax-
payers' money in such a manner. He did not think it would be right.
Supervisor Roncovieri moved that Section 12 be amended by deleting
the period after the word "cards," at the end of the Section and adding
the words "to all children under the age of 18 years; and provided
further that any other child or citizen of the City may obtain such
identification cards by paying the cost, as it will appear."
Motion failerl for want of a second.
Supei'visor Colman announced that since he was in doul)t about the
entire matter, he would vote "no."
Refused Passage
Thereupon, the roll was called and the legislation to provide for
identification tags for children was
Refused Passage by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara, Ronco-
vieri. Shannon — 7.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Green, Uhl — 4.
Motion to Reconsider
Thereupon, Supervisor O'Gara, before the result of the foregoins
vote had been announced, changed his vote from "Aye" to "No" and
moved for reconsideiation.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Gallagher.
The vote then stood :
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer. Roncovieri,

Report to the Police Committee, Board of Supervisors, City and
County of San Francisco, from the City Planning Commission,
March 31, 1942.
To the Honorable March 30, 1942.
Police Committee
Board of Sui)orvisors
City and County of San Francisco
Gentlemen:
The City Planning Commission transmits to you its report on "Traffic
Improvement in the Cential Business District."
MONDAY, MAY 4. 1942 825
The Commission, its Consultant, and its staff, liave given a con-
siderable amount of study to this problem, and the recommendations
in this report have been reached after very careful consideration of
the entire problem.
The plan recommended for immediate adoption is contained in Plan
2, and is covered in the text of the report.
The eventual plan for the entire central business area as briefly
described in this report and as shown in Plan 1 will be further supple-
mented by a report on the mass transportation routings and reroutings
as soon as many details are worked out with the transportation
companies.
While some changes in the direction of travel on some of the streets
have been suggested and are being studied by the Planning Commis-
sion, the basic plan would not be altered by any changes that may be
advisable.
The Commission has asked the cooperation and has held conferences
with the various City and County departments and with the repre-
sentatives of several business and civic organizations in the city.
The Commission would like your earnest consideration of this report
and it is our desire that many of the recommendations therein can
be adopted in the near future.
Respectfully,
Clarence H. King
President, City Planning Commission
PLAN NO. 2
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR IMMEDIATE ADOPTION
Since it will take some further study and consultation to work out
the details of the comprehensive plan just described, it is recommended
that immediate consideration be given and legislation prepared to put
into effect one way operation of several of the streets in the central
business district.
There are two paramount reasons for the immediate adoption of
these recommendations. First, a demonstration of the practicability
of one way street operation, and second, the emergency need to facili-
tate the movement of vehicular traffic out of the central business dis-
trict during the evening rush hour or at any other time an emergency
may exist.
The streets proposed for one way operation immediately, and the
direction of travel are shown on the accompanying map and are here-
with listed:
Clay Street. Embarcadero to Van Ness, east bound (Now one way,
Embarcadero to Larkin Street.)
Sacramento Street, Embarcadero to Van Ness, west bound (Now one
way, Embarcadero to Larkin Street.)
Pine Street, Market to Presidio, west bound
Bush Street, Market to Presidio, east bound
Eddy Street, Market to Van Ness, west bound
Turk Street, Market to Van Ness, east bound
Montgomery Street, Market to Washington, south bound
Sansome Street. Market to Broadway, north bound
Battery Street, Market to Broadway, south bound
Front Street, Market to Broadway, north bound (Now one way,
Sacramento to Pacific)
Davis Street, Market to Broadway, south bound (Now one way,
Sacramento to Pacific)
Drumm Street, Market to Broadway, north bound
Steuart Street, Market to Howard, north bound
Spear Street, Market to Harrison, south bound
Main Street, Market to Harrison, north bound
Beale Street, Market to Folsom, south bound
826 MONDAY, MAY 4, 1942
Fremont Street, Market to " Folsom, north bound (Now one way,
Market to Howard)
First Street. Market to Harrison, south bound (Now one way,
Market to Howard)
NO PARKING:
The streets proposed lor "No Parking" regulations immediately, are
shown on the accompanying map and are herewith listed:
Post Street. Market Street to Taylor Street
Eddy Street, north side. Powell Street to Mason Street
Pine Street, north side, Hyde Street to Jones Street
Kearny Street, Market Street to Columbus Avenue
Stockton Street, excepting that portion over the tunnel, Market
Street to Columbus Avenue
Powell Street, Market Street to Bush Street
Sutter Street, Market Street to Taylor Street
Geary Street, Market Street to Taylor Street
Third Street, Market Street to Howard Street
Only stopping to load and unload merchandise, or stopping to load
and unload passengers, would be the only type of parking that would
be permitted on the streets listed above. Some cities permit ten
minute stopping to load and unload merchandise and a three minute
stopping to load and unload passengers. While no time limit is sug-
gested in these recommendations it is thought that the Police Depart-
ment will enforce the intent of these regulations so that there will be
no extreme hardship either to merchant or shoppers.
It will be said that "No Parking" regulations on these streets will
not add another lane capacity to these streets. This is true but a
much freer movement of vehicular traffic, and particularly street car
tiaffic will result in "No Parking" regulations enforced on these streets.
Much of the delays at the present time to trolley car operation are
caused by the parking and the pulling away from the curb of parked
cars during all periods of the day.
Inasmuch as vehicular traffic will move at a greater speed and with
greater facility on the one way streets, these recommendations to
prohibit paiking on the suggested streets are made to speed up both
types of traffic on these five streets.
All of the streets recommended for immediate one way operation,
and the direction of travel thereon, are part of a comprehensive plan
for the whole central business district. Under the plan for immediate
adoption only two reroutings of bus lines are necessary, namely Nos.
26 and 42 of the Market Street Railway.
On Pine Street between Jones and Hyde Streets, there is at the
piesent time, two way operation of the cable car line. This need not
cause any great inconvenience to either form of traffic on this street
at this point. Plan 3 shows suggested recommendations for the treat-
ment of Pine Street between Jones and Hyde Streets. It is recom-
mended that "No Parking" regulations be established on the north
side of Pine Street between Jones and Hyde Streets. It is further
recommended that diagonal parking be permitted on the south side
of Pine Street as shown in Plan 3.
There are two reasons for this proposal. First, by permitting
diagonal parking on the south side of Pine Street it will not be
possible for vehicular traffic moving west to become involved with the
(■able car opeiation east bound. By permitting diagonal parking, there
will be insufficient lane space between the cable car and parked
vehicles, and travel will be discouraged on this side of the street.
Second, inasinucii as these two blocks are rather heavy residential
streets almost the same number of parking spaces are provided by
diagonal parking on the south side as exist now on both sides of the
street.
It is further lecommended that a double center line, as shown on
the accompanying plan (Plan 3), be painted as indicated.
MONDAY, MAY 4, 1942 827
On Eddy Street between Mason and Powell Streets there is at the
present time two way trolley operation. It is recommended that a
"No Parking" regulation be established on the north side of Eddy
Street between Powell and Mason Streets. There are at the present
time only four legal parking spaces on the north side in this block.
By permitting parking on the south side of the street in this block it
will discourage the use of this side of the street for vehicular traffic
operating against the east bound trolley cars.
XO LEFT TURNS
It is recommended that no left turn regulations be established at
the following intersections in the central business district:
Geary and Powell Streets
Geary and Stockton Streets
Geary Street and Grant Avenue
Jessie and New Montgomery Streets
Jessie and Fourth Streets
Jessie and Fifth Streets
Mission and Second Streets
Mission and New Montgomery
Mission and Third Streets
Mission and Fourth Streets
Mission and Fifth Streets
Post and Powell Streets
Post and Stockton Streets
Post Street and Grant Avenue
Stevenson and New Montgomery Streets
Stevenson and Third Streets
Stevenson and Fifth Streets
Sutter and Powell Streets
Sutter Street and Grant Avenue
Sutter and Kearny Streets
Sixth and Mission Streets
Sixth and Stevenson Streets
Sixth and Jessie Streets
It is further recommended that the "No Left Turn" regulation at
Market Street, and Fremont Street, on Fremont Street, be removed.
One of the chief causes of traffic congestion and delays in the central
business district is the making of left turns at busy intersections. Not
only is the oncoming traffic blocked while a vehicle completes a left
turn but many times traffic in both directions is stopped.
The intersections listed above together with the other recommenda-
tions contained in this report are closely related. With the adoption
of the one way street recommendations, the "No Parking" recommenda-
tions and no left turns at the several intersections, together with good
enforcement, a big step forward will ])e taken toward an immediate
solution of the traffic problem in the central business district.
Due to tire priorities and gasoline rationing, traffic can be expected
to fall off materially during the next few months. This offers a very
opportune time to adopt recommendations contained in this report.
Driving is a matter of habit to a very great extent. With the
recommendations put into effect now, fewer people will need to form
new driving habits. In the course of a few weeks the driving public
will easily become accustomed to one way street operation and will
, drive in conformity with the one way street plan.
I SYNCHRONIZATION OF TRAFFIC LIGHTS
I Since an entirely different flow of traffic will result from the adop-
tion of the recommendations contained in this report, a complete study
of the retiming of many of the traffic lights in the central business
i' district will have to be made.
\ PUBLIC SUPPORT
: Once it is determined to go ahead with the recommendations con-
828 MONDAY, MAY 4, 1942
tained in this report, or many of them, it is necessary that the citizens
of San Francisco be adequately informed regarding the new driving
regulations.
Public education is most important. Once the driving public and
others are acquainted with the reasons back of the regulations to be
established, greater public support will be obtained. Heretofore, new
regulations have been put into effect without the public being suffi-
ciently informed. The idea is to make new regulations popular. If
they are popular with the great majority of the people, better traffic
conditions will exist.
The press in this city can be counted on to assist in popularizing
any plan for traffic improvement. It is evident by their editorial
policy and by the space given to other traffic matters by all the papers
that support will be given a definite and comprehensive plan for
traffic improvement. The various civic and improvement associations
in the city should be acquainted with the purpose of the recommenda-
tions in this report
During the first few weeks the Police Department should endeavor to
make the new regulations work. Explanation by the officers of the
new regulations to violators will go a long way in gaining public sup-
port. On the other hand those violators who persist in violating the
traffic regulations, particularly the "No Parking" regulations, should
be cited. Other cities have found that good police enforcement is
absolutely necessary to make traffic regulations popular. Where mo-
torists see others "get away" with violations, public support is imme-
diately weakened. The police officers on traffic duty in the central
business district are for the most part picked men. They are under-
standing and with the backing of the courts and the public they can
do just as good a job as the police departments in other cities.
MATTERS AFFECTING OTHER DEPARTMENTS
With the recommendations, or many of them, contained in this
report adopted, it will be necessary for the various city departments
to make provision to properly sign, and in some cases, paint traffic
lanes on the pavements. Certain existing stop signs on some of the
streets will need to be relocated, and in some cases new stop signs
installed. On Pine Street and on Eddy Street "No Parking" signs will
have to be installed.

Consideration Postponed
Consideration of Mayor's Veto
OFFICE OF THE MAYOR, SAN FRANCISCO
April 14, 1942.
To the Honorable
Board of Supervisors
City Hall
San Francisco, California
Gentlemen:
I have before me for consideration Bill No. 1615, Ordinance number
unnoted, amending Salary Standardization Ordinance No. 1203 by
changing the compensation schedules of a few titles and classes con-
tained in Division "B" Clerical Service, as outlined and maintained by
the Civil Service Commission.
I herewith return this bill to you with my disapproval and veto
endorsed thereon. I have vetoed the bill for the following reasons:
This is the first of a number of ordinances which are now either
befoi-e your Board for your action in the matter of re-standardizing the
salaries of a particular group or which have been referred by your
Board to the Civil Service Commission for report. Until all of these
matters have been reported on by the Civil Service Commission and
acted upon by your Board, it is impossil)le for either me or your Board
to have a complete picture of the overall effect of the various changes
in compensation proposed by your Board and either reported on by, or
pending before, the Civil Service Commission.
It is my understanding that if this Ordinance takes effect the legality
of the whole proceeding of piece-meal standardization will be challenged
in the courts and all salary adjustments of whatever kind therel)y will
be defeated at least for the fiscal year 1942-43. This I do not witsh to
happen nor do I wish to contril)ute to such a situation.
In giving consideration to the current year's budget, in order to avoid
discrimination I adopted the policy, subject to very few exceptions
where the increases in compensation would have been out of proportion
to the compensation being received by the employe, of bringing every
employe in the city service at least to the entrance salary of his classifi-
cation as set forth in the recommendation of the Civil Service Com-
mission under date of April 9, 1930, and as amended and extended by
the Commission during subsequent years.
These raises included increases to the forgotten employes who had
been overlooked for several years. In most cases, I adopted the policy
of allowing these increases to become effective over a three year period —
that is. one-third was allowed for the current fiscal year with the
intention of allowing the second third for the coming fiscal year and
the final third for the year 1943-44.
MONDAY, MAY 4, 1942 837
The result of this policy will be that no single year will be burdened
too heavily and yet all employes, without discrimination, whose com-
pensation is below the maximum, will receive adjustments in their
compensations in each of the three years and at the end of the three
year period every employe will receive the full rate of pay to which he
is tntitled by length of service under the step plan proposed by the
Civil Service Commission.
Piece-meal standardization of salaries is opposed by the same or-
ganizations which brought about the referendum against the stand-
ardization schedule adopted by the Board of Supervisors in March of
1939. and which was defeated by a vote of over 3 to 1 at the special
election in May, 1939. Should the present piece-meal policy be chal-
lenged in Court the probable result will be that not only will the
schedules proposed by your honorable Board not be paid next year but
that the adjustments which I propose cannot be made.
This I deem unfair to all employes and in my budget recommenda-
tions to your honorable Board I am continuing, as far as posisble, my
policy established last year of granting the second one-third increase
in salaries to all employes entitled thereto. I do not propose to
endanger in any way the salary adjustments for the employes to which
I feel they are rightly entitled.
I am willing and anxious to take into consideration such standardiza-
tion as will be fair to all the employes of the city. I do not believe
the ordinance which is now before me will accomplish this and there-
fore. I return it to you w'ith my disaprpoval and veto endorsed thereon.
Very truly yours,
ANGELO J. ROSSI, Mayor.

of his requests he called on representatives of several district impi'ove-
ment clubs speaking for the several playgrounds.

Mayor Requested to Call Meeting of Citizens Committee for the
Purpose of Organization of the San Francisco Home Guard
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, It is generally recognized that in the event of the invasion
of the Pacific Coast, it is probable San Francisco will be among the
first cities to be attacked; and
Whereas, Due to its exposed position, our City is exceedingly vul-
nerable to such attack by enemy forces; and
Whereas, Although Civilian Defense has been adequately organized
to take care of non-combatant types of resistance to attack, no provision
has thus far been made to augment with local effort the combatant
forces which will be opposed to the enemy; and
Whereas, Large numbers of San Francisco citizens have been and
will be non-qualified through disability, age, or other basis for defer-
ment, to become members of the military forces of the United States;
and
Whereas, Such non-qualified citizens are nonetheless capable of taking
part in home defense; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors does hereby heartily en-
dorse the creation of a Home Guard for San Francisco, said Home
Guard to be made up entirely of San Francisco residents and citizens,
who are not qualified for active service in the Armed Forces of the
United States; and said Guard to be employed solely in augmenting
the defense of the City of San Francisco in the event of invasion of
this immediate territory by enemy forces; and be it
Further Resolved, That the Mayor is requested to call a meeting of a
Citizens Committee for the purpose of organization of the San Fran-
cisco Home Guard.

Board of Supervisors,
San Francisco, Calif.
Gentlemen:
The members of the Finance Committee of this Board have voted
unanimously against the proposal to create a position known as As-
sistant Director of Civilian Defense at a salary of $500.00 per month.
This action was taken, not with any disparagement to Mr. Danziger
who was to be the recipient thereof, but rather against the procedure
of adding high salaried executives to the Civilian Defense Program.
It is the unanimous opinion of our committee that to create this
or other high salaried positions may tend to lower the morale of the
volunteer workers, many of whom are full-time volunteers.
The Mayor in asking for approval of the $600.00 per month position
of Civilian Defense Chief made no mention of the $500.00 per month
Assistant and the approval of high salaried positions in this Civilian
Defense Program is neither timely nor in keeping with the spirit of
Civilian Defense.
Our Finance Committee desires to cast no reflection on Mr. Danziger
who, up to the present, has given freely of his time and effort in
this worthwhile and important work.
It is hoped that Mr. Danziger will continue to give to Civilian De-
fense in the future the benefit of his ability and experience during the
time he may be able to spare from his personal business.
Yours very truly,
FINANCE COMMITTEE.

Discussion
Mr. John Cahill spoke at length on the need for a paid assistant to
the Director of Civilian Defense, outlining in detail the many duties for
the holder of that position, and the many matters which Mr. Nathan
Danziger. if his appointment to the position is allowed, desires to
accomplish. If the Board does not approve the desired legislation, any
failure by the Director of Civilian Defense, Mr. John Helms, will be
the responsibility of the Board of Supervisors.
Supervisor MacPhee, Chairman of the Finance Committee, objected
to the creation of any more "high priced jobs," arguing that the creation
of such positions would greatly endanger the morale of the workers in
the ranks, who are voluntarily carrying out their many assignments.
Supervisor Meyer supported the views e.xpressed by Mr. Cahill. There
should be, he believed, not one Assistant Director, but several assistants.
Mr. Cahill. in continuing his arguments in favor of the creation of the
position, and the appointment of Mr. Danziger thereto, urged that the
considered opinion of the Advisory Board be given proper weight.
However, the question of salary for the position is not of paramount
importance, and a reduction of salary from $500 per month to $400
would not be opposed.
Mr. John Helms, Director of Civilian Defense, also pointed out the
necessity for the creation of the position. The position could not be
filled, he stated, with a full time volunteer. The Assistant Director must
be a man with experience; it must be full time; and it must be a paid
position.
Supervisor Roncovieri announced that "after hearing Mr. Helms there
should not be a 'No' vote." He urged an immediate roll call.
Supervisors Colman, O'Gara and Gallagher all urged approved of
legislation to create the position of Assistant Director of Civilian
Defense.
Supervisors Mead and MacPhee opposed the proposed legislation.
Thereupon, the roll was called on Passage for Second Reading, of
Bill No. 1700, appropriating $500 for compensation for Assistant to
Director of Civilian Defense, as follows:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, Meyer, O'Gai'a,
Roncovieri — 7.
Noes: Supervisors MacPhee, Mead. Shannon. Uhl — 4.
The Chair ruled that the appropriation required 9 votes, and, there-
fore, had failed to carry.
Subsequently, following statement by Mr. Lewis, of the Mayor's office,
that the appropriation was not from the Mayor's Emergency Reserve
Fund, but from funds heretofore appropi'iated for Civilian Defense, the
Chair reversed its ruling and announced the Bill had been Passed for
Second Reading.

Section 2. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 151 of the Charter,
[the schedule of compensations set forth herein shall, from and after

I above his present salary, computed to the nearest dollar, to which he is

[as indicated in the schedule of compensations set forth herein, pro-
|vided, further, that the gross compensation for full time employees,
1 occupying positions subject to civil service, shall not be less than

ing as of June 30, 1942.

Discussion
The City Attorney, in reply to questioning by Supervisor Roncovieri,
advised that in order to take care of the salary range increases for
municipal carmen, the foregoing Bill should be Finally Passed, after
which any amendments might be passed. Any amendment, however,
might necessitate a special or adjourned meeting of the Board some
time not later than May 23 in order that increased salaries might be
placed in the budget for the next figcal year.
Supervisor Colman, in explanation of his vote, stated that the proposal
under consideration rcas not standardization. The Charter provides very
clearly and definitely that the wage scale for city employees must not
exceed the highest prevailing wage paid on the outside. Starting wage
of $155 for clerical help is in excess of the highest prevailing wage paid
such help on the outside. In that class there are some 740 employees.
The same is true for institutional services. If the law is wa-ong, it
should be changed. If the Charter is incorrect, it should be amended.
For those reasons he would vote "No."
Supervisor O'Gara reminded the Board that two weeks previously he
had stated that he would study the salary standardization schedules as
Passed for Second Reading, and if he found that salary ranges set up
therein were not out of line, he would vote in favor of standardization
on Final Passage. He stated that he was prepared to vote "Aye" on
Final Passage because he believed that, on the whole, the benefits from
salary standardization would be far greater than would be the evils.
From comparing rates presented by the Bureau of Governmental Re-
search with those contained in the foregoing legislation, he was con-
vinced that the Civil Service Commission has a more accurate view of
the situation than does the Bureau. Unless the Civil Service Commission
is grossly out of line, the Board should follow the Commission's recom-
mendations. He would accept the Commission's recommendation and
would vote "Aye" on Final Passage.
Supervisor Uhl announced his intention to vote "Aye."
Supervisor Roncovieri announced that inasmuch as he had been
assured that the carmen and institutional workers would be taken care
of later in the day, he would vote in favor of the foregoing Bill.
Whereupon, the roll was called and the foregoing Bill was
Finally passed by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara,
Roncovieri, Shannon, Uhl — 9.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman — 2.
Subsequently during the proceedings, and after Final Passage of the
Salary Standardization Ordinance, the Finance Committee presented
the following:
Amending Salary Standardization Ordinance With Respect to Rates
of Compensation for "S" Classification, Street Railway Service

Bill No. 1709, Ordinance No , as follows:

Discussion
Supervisor Colman, in discussing the foregoing matter, admitted that
the proposed $7.00 per day for platform men of the Municipal Railway
service was not excessive for the labor performed. He did not believe,
however, that it was in accordance with the provisions of the Charter.
If, however, he could be sure that such rate was being paid by the Key
System, in Oakland, be would not object. However, he believed in law
and order, and the threat of a proposed strike by municipal carmen

would have no weight with him. If the laws are wrong, sometliing
must be done to correct them, but in the meantime the Board must
proceed in accordance with the law as it is. He would vote "No."
Supervisor Mead, in reply to Supervisor Colman's remarks, stated
that Supervisor Colman, and everyone else on the Board, knew that in
many cases, not in the peak hours, the Key System operates trains of
but one car, with two men. Something should be done in behalf of our
carmen. The wage scale for laborers is soon to be $7.60 per day. Cer-
tainly those who operate street cars in San Francisco are entitled to the
same consideration.
Supervisor MacPhee pointed out that the Finance Committee had
recommended to the Board a month previous the same rates as those
now set up in the proposed amendment to the Salary Standardization
ordinance.
Passage for Second Reading
Thereupon, the roll was called and the foregoing Bill was Passed for
Second Reading by the following vote:

Discussion
Mr. W. L. Henderson, representing the Civil Service Commission, in
reply to questioning by Supervisor Colman, stated that the salaries in
the foregoing proposed amendment to the Salary Standardization ordi-
nance did not conform to salaries being paid institutional workers in
private employment.
Thereupon. Supervisor Colman announced, that in view of the state-
ment by Mr. Henderson he would vote "No" on the foregoing Bill.
Supervisor MacPhee, however, pointed out that institutional workers
in many state hospitals are actually paid higher wages than those now
proposed. Mr. Henderson agreed that in many public institutions wages
paid are approximately the same as those now proposed to be paid to
city employed institutional workers.
Mr. Hare, representing the institutional workers, announced that
wages paid in state institutions range from $110 to $145 per month, and
in some cases to $160, and declared that the wages proposed are not out
of line with charter provisions.

Repealing Portion of Municipal Code Providing for Regulation
and Licensing of Street Photographers
(Series of 1939)
Bill No. 16S5, Ordinance No , as follows:
Repealing Bill No. 1097, Ordinance No. 1127 (Series of 1939), and
designated as Section 130, Article 2. Part III. of the San Francisco

phers; providing for the issuance of permits and the filing of a bond;
and providing for the responsibility of principals.
Be it ordained by the People of the City and County of San Francisco,
as follows:
Section 1. Bill No. 1097, Ordinance No. 1127 (Series of 1939), desig-
nated as Section 130, Article 2. Part III of the San Francisco Munici-
pal Code providing for the regulation and licensing of street photogra-
phers; providing for the issuance of permits and the filing of a bond;
and providing for the responsibility of principals is hereby repealed.
Approved as to form by the City Attorney.
Privilege of the Floor
Mr. Lloyd Taylor, representing Market Street Association, announced
that his organization was originally opposed to the ordinance licensing
street photographers. However, the police department, and the men
engaged in the street photography business had extended their full
co-operation, and he could now see no reason for the repeal of the
ordinance. The repeal of the ordinance would accomplish nothing
except to make it necessary to draft a new ordinance at the emergency.
At the request of the Navy, all licenses for street photographers have
been suspended. The entire matter should be left in the hands of the
Police Department, and licenses should be suspended for the duration
of the emergency.
Supervisor O'Gara suggested that the matter be re-referred to com-
mittee, with the suggestion that the committee get in touch with
Admiral Greenslade and find out if conditions at present, with licenses
suspended, are satisfactory to him.
Mr. Chester Keith. Attorney representing licensed street photogra-
phers, announced that there were only two such licensed photographers,
and inasmuch as the Chief of Police has already revoked licenses for
the duration of the war. he did not think any action as proposed was
necessary.
Supervisor Shannon, seconded by Supervisor Roncovieri, moved that
action be postponed indefinitely.
Supervisor O'Gara, seconded by Supervisor Gallagher, moved as a
substitute motion that further consideration be postponed for one
week, and that, in the meantime, it be ascertained if the present situa-
tion is satisfactory to Admiral Greenslade.
Whereupon. Supervisor Shannon, with the consent of his second,
withdrew his motion.
Thereupon, no objection being made, the Chair ruled the motion for
postponement was carried, and he appointed Supervisor O'Gara to
interview Admiral Greenslade and ascertain his views.

Reconsideration
Supeivisor O'Gaia announced that he understood that if reconsidera-
tion should be granted. Supervisor Green proposed to offer an amend-
ment, redesignating religious affiliation of children on identification
tags, which, he believed, would meet with the approval of all members
of the Board. Accordingly, he would move reconsideration.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Gallagher, and carried by the fol-
lowing vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown. Colman. Gallagher, Green. MacPhee, Mead.
Meyer, O'Gara, Roncovieri, Shannon, Uhl — 11.
Thereupon. Supervisor Green moved to amend by striking out the
words, at the end of Section 1, "the religious affiliation of said child."
and inserting in lieu thereof, the words "any other pertinent information
concerning the child."
Motion seconded by Supervisor Gallagher.
Supervisor O'Gara opposed the amendment, pointing out that it is our
national policy to encourage religion in times of strife, where such
encouragement can be given without discriminating against one religion
in favor of other religions. The United States Army, on its identification
tags for soldiers, designates the religion of the soldiers, where desired.
Supervisor Green, in reply, stated that his proposed amendment
would not take away the opportunity to designate on the identification
tag or card, the religion of the child. There are some people who believe
that perhaps a direct statement of religious affiliation is not in good
taste.
Mrs. Thomas, representing the Parent-Teacher Association, stated
that out of some 77.000 children registered, there was only one com-
plaint against designating the religion of the child.
Mrs. Joseph Keenan. of the Catholic Parent-Teacher group, pointed
out reasons why her group would insist upon the right to liave the
religious affiliation of the child designated if the parents so desired.
Amendment to the Amendment Proposed
Supervisor Roncovieri. seconded by Supervisor O'Gara. moved as an
amendment to the amendment, that the words proposed to be stricken
out remain, and that there be added in addition thereto, the words "or
any other pertinent information concerning said child."
Motion failed by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, O'Gara, Roncovieri — 3.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer,
Shannon, Uhl— 8.
Whereupon, the roll was again called and the amendment proposed
by Supervisor Green was approved by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown. Colman. (Jallagher. Green, MacPhee. Meyer,

April 14, 1942.
To the Honorable
Board of Supervisors
City Hall
San Francisco, California
Gentlemen:
I have before me for consideration Bill No. 1615, Ordinance number
unnoted, amending Salary Standardization Ordinance No. 1203 by
changing the compensation schedules of a few titles and classes con-
tained in Division "B" Clerical Service, as outlined and maintained by
the Civil Service Commission.
I herewith return this bill to you with my disapproval and veto
endorsed thereon. I have vetoed the bill for the following reasons:
This is the first of a number of ordinances which are now either
before your Board for your action in the matter of re-standardizing the
salaries of a particular group or which have been referred by your
Board to the Civil Service Commission for report. Until all of these
mattei's have been reported on by the Civil Service Commission and
acted upon by your Board, it is impossible for either me or your Board
to have a complete picture of the overall effect of the various changes
in compensation proposed by your Board and either reported on 1)y, or
pending before, the Civil Service Commission.
It is my understanding that if this Ordinance takes effect the legality
of the whole proceeding of piece-meal standardization will be challenged
in the courts and all salary adjustments of whatever kind thereby will
be defeated at least for the fiscal year 1942-43. This I do not witsh to
happen nor do I wish to contribute to such a situation.
In giving consideration to the current year's budget, in order to avoid
discrimination I adopted the policy, subject to very few exceptions
where the increases in compensation would have been out of proportion
to the compensation being received by the employe, of bringing every
employe in the city service at least to the entrance salary of his classifi-
cation as set forth in the recommendation of the Civil Service Com-
mission under date of April 9, 1930, and as amended and extended by
the Commission during subsequent years.
These raises included increases to the forgotten employes who had
been overlooked for several years. In most cases, I adopted the policy
of allowing these increases to become effective over a three year period —
that is, one-third was allowed for the current fiscal year with the
intention of allowing the second third for the coming fiscal year and
the final third for the year 1943-44.
The result of tliis policy will be that no single year will l)e burdened
too heavily and yet all employes, without discrimination, whose com-
pensation is below the maximum, will receive adjustments in their
compensations in each of the three years and at the end of the three
year pciiod every emi)loye will receive the full rate of pay to which he
is (ntitled l)y length of service under the step plan proposed by the
Civil Service Commission.
Piece-meal standardization of salaries is opposed by the same or-
ganizations which brought about the referendum against the stand-
MONDAY, MAY 11. 1942
891
ardization schedule adopted by the Board of Supervisors in March of
1939. and which was defeated by a vote of over 3 to 1 at the special
election in ^lay, 1939. Should the present piece-meal policy be chal-
lenged in Court the probable result will be that not only will the
schedules proposed by your honorable Board not be paid next year but
that the adjustments which I propose cannot be made.
This I deem unfair to all employes and in my budget recommenda-
tions to your honorable Board I am continuing, as far as posisble, my
policy established last year of granting the second one-third increase
in salaries to all employes entitled thereto. I do not propose to
endanger in any way the salary adjustments for the employes to which
1 feel they are rightly entitled.
I am willing and anxious to take into consideration such standardiza-
tion as will be fair to all the employes of the city. I do not believe
the ordinance which is now before me will accomplish this and there-
fore, I return it to you with my disaprpoval and veto endorsed thereon.
Very truly yours,

Discussion
Supervisor O'Gara, after consulting with Deputy City Attorney Holm,
moved that the Mayor's veto be sustained with respect to everything
except Classification B152, Courtroom Clerks; that Classification B152
be divided into Classifications B152a, Municipal Courtroom Clerks and
B152b. Superior Courtroom Clerks; and that the Mayor's veto, respect-
ing 15152a, Municipal Courtroom Clerks be sustained and that the veto,
respecting B152b, Superior Courtroom Clerks be overridden.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Gallagher.
Supervisor Shannon objected to the motion. He held that the entire
matter of the Mayor's veto was before the Board, to be sustained or
overruled. It could not be amended.
The Chair ruled the motion to be out of order.
Appeal from Decision of the Chair
Thereupon, Supervisor Brown appealed from the decision of the Chair.
Supervisor Mead, at the request of the President, put the appeal.
Supervisor Brown, in support of his appeal, read portion of Section
14 of the Charter, as follows: "The Board of Supervisors may recon-
sider any resolution or ordinance vetoed or disapproved, or any separa-
tion appropriation item vetoed or reduced by the mayor, ..."
Chair Overruled
Whereupon, the roll was called and the Chair was overruled by the
following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Shannon, Uhl — 2.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Gallagher. Green. MacPhee. Mead. Meyer.
O'Gara, Roncovieri — 8.

respect to Classification B152)), Superior Courtroom Clerks, be overruled.
Privilege of the Floor
City Attorney John J. O'Toole, who appeared in the Chambers during
the discussion, on being given the privilege of the floor, informed the
Board that theie had been a misunderstanding by the Deputy City
Attorney as to the question asked by Supervisor O'Gara earlier during
the consideration of the Mayor's veto. The Mayor's veto of Salary
Standardization Ordinance could not be overruled in part and sustained
in part. It must be acted on without amendment.
Thereupon, the Chair ruled the motion by Supervisor Gallagher to be
out of order.
Mayor's Veto Sustained
Whereupon, the Chaii- put the question; "Shall the foregoing Salary
Standaidization Ordinance be finally passed, notwitlistaiuling the
Mayor's objections thereto?" Mayor's veto was sustained by the follow-
ing vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead. Meyer, Shan-

The Honorable

Gentlemen :
5, 1942
I have before me for consideration Bill No. 1648, Ordinance number
unnoted, amending' the 1941-42 Salary Ordinance by adding Section 2.3
thereto to provide overtime and holiday compensation for per diem
employees for the fiscal year 1941-42. This ordinance is returned to you
with my disapproval and veto endorsed thereon. I have vetoed this
ordinance for the following reasons:
(1) The Controller has not certified that funds are available to meet
this overtime and I understand tliat no provision was made in the
annual appropriation ordinance to meet tlie payment of overtime pro-
vided for in the above mentioned ordinance. Section 86 of the Charter
provides as follows:
"No ordinance or resolution for the expenditure of money, except
the annual appropriation ordinance, shall be passed by the Board of
Supervisors unless the Controller first certify to such board that there
is a sufficient unencumbered balance in a fund that may legally be
used for such proposed expenditure * * *"
The same Section further provides:
"Every officer who shall approve, allow, or pay any demand on the
treasury not authorized by law, ordinance or this cliarter, shall be
liable to the city and county individually and on his official bond for
th« amount of the demand so illegally approved, allowed or paid."
I suggest that you refer to my letter of June 19, 1940, covering tliis
same subject, copy of which is attached. In that letter I stated my
position clearly and now reiterate tliat, in my opinion, routine work
performed by per diem employees should not be compensated at over-
time rates. For example, if a per diem employee, in the ordinary course
of his assignment, is required to render service on a Saturday or a
Sunday or a legal holiday he should not be entitled to overtime com-
pensation any more tiian would a platform man on the sti'eet railway,
or a policeman, or a fireman, or an ambulance driver, or any other
hospital employee whose work is routine and must be pei'formed at
regularly stated intervals.
This does not mean tliat I am opposed to the payment of overtime
where the work is of an emergency nature and the employees are called
out to meet the emergency, or where an employee is compelled to work
more than eight hours in any one day or more than forty hours in any
one week. Should an ordinance be presented to me, which meets all
Charter requirements, wliich would provide for the payment of
emergency overtime only, I would approve such ordinance,
Yours very truly,
ANGELO J. ROSSI, Mayor.
OFFICE OF THE MAYOR
San Francisco
June 19, 1940
The Honorable
The Board of Supervisors
City Hall
Gentlemen:
I return herewith Ordinance No. 744 passed by your Honorable Board
last Monday as an emergency measure, amending the 1939-40 Annual
Salary Ordinance, unsigned as provided under Section 14 of the Charter.
894 MONDAY, MAY 11, 1942
As it has been explained to me, the purpose of this ordinance was to
make it possible for a number of per diem workers in the city's employ
to be paid for extra time actually put in during the last several months.
I do not wish to take any action that would prevent these men from
being paid for time worked.
I wish to avoid, however, even seeming to approve the payment of
other than regular wage rates for routine city work, whether that rou-
tine work, as distinguished from emergency work, is performed on
week days or holidays, or during day time or night time. For this
reason, I would disapprove this ordinance in its present form, if it
were proposed as an amendment to the Annual Salary Ordinance for
the fiscal year 1940-41.
There are many functions of city government, just as there are in
private entei'prise. which must be carried on at hours other than from
8 a. m. to 5 p. m. five days a week. Streets must be cleaned for example,
on Saturdays and Sundays and holidays. In fact, some of this work
can be done much more effectively on those days than on busy week
days. Some agencies and institutions must operate 24 hours a day
seven days a week.
Routine work done by regularly assigned workers should be com-
pensated at regular rates of pay, not as overtime. It would be fair
neither to other workers nor to taxpayers to pay street sweepers work-
ing regularly on Saturdays and Sundays twice the rate paid those who
work on week days. This applies also to other functions of govern-
ment and to other classes of workers.
There is a distinction, however, between routine work and emergency
work performed at other than regular hours. When a workman is
called from his home at night or on a holiday to make an emergency
repair to a street or sewer, or to do any other emergency city work, it
is only fair that he be compensated at a higher than regular rate of pay.
I believe that any legislation on overtime pay of per diem woi-kers
should distinguish clearly between routine work performed on regular
assignments and emergency work that disturbs the leisure to which
the worker is normally entitled.
The matter of costs to the city is not unimportant, either. With the
money set up in next fiscal year's budget more men can be employed
and more work can be done if routine work is paid for at straight time.
The public is entitled to streets made safe by proper striping and made
clean by regulai' sweeping. These functions cannot ])e adequately per-
formed at reasonable costs to the public if routine work is paid foi- at
overtime rates.
Therefore, in returnint; this oidinance unsigned. I do so in the hope
that your honorable body will inti'oduce legislation that will distinguish
between routine wages and emergency wages. Legislation that will
properly and justly compensate the worker and at the same time
preserve the fundamtntal that certain city activities require a day-to-day
service, indted a 24-h()ur service, without deviating from straight time
pay.
Police, fii-e, health and hospitals, public utilities, telephone operators
— all those who must give public service the week through — fall into
this category. Certainly, those in these departments cannot be paid
overtime for week-end work. I do not believe as stated above, that
certain other functions of orderly, eflficient government should be singled
out for special consideration.
I leiterate the need for your study of this problem in regard to
operations of city government in the ensuing year.
Yours sincerely,
(Signed) ANGKLO J. ROSSI, Ma.vor.

Discussion
Supervisor Mead, seconded by Supervisor Shannon, moved that the
foregoing "Overtime Ordinance" be passed, notwithstanding the objec-
tions of His Honor, the Mayor.
Privilege of the Floor
On motion by Supervisor Mead, the privilege of the floor was granted
to the following interested labor representatives:
Mr. J. Leonard, Mr. Holman, and Mr. Gearhard, representing various
branches of labor, and street sweepers in particular, and Mr. Thomas
Maher. International Representative of the San Francisco District,
speaking for painters affected, recited to the Board conditions prevailing
in private industry, and urged the Board to override the Mayor's veto.
In Hands of the Board
On motion by Supervisor Mead, the question of overriding the Mayor's
veto was taken into the hands of the Board.
Supervisor Mead, in discussing the Mayor's veto, and urging that it
be overridden, declared that the matter involved many thousands of
people employed in private industry. It affected more than those city
employees to whom overtime pay was due.
In reply to questioning by Supervisor O'Gara, Supervisor Mead stated
that this was the first time such an ordinance had been vetoed by the
Mayor; he did not know whether or not the employees affected had ever
been notified that they would not be paid for overtime work.
Supervisor Colman agreed that the Mayor had never before vetoed
such an ordinance, but the previous time an overtime ordinance had
been enacted, it was with the understanding that it would be the last
time the Board would so legislate.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the Mayor's veto was overruled by
the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green. MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara,
Roncovieri. Shannon, Uhl — 9.

Discussion ^^
Supervisor O'Gara, after presenting the foregoing resolution, stated
that he understood that in the coming budget there was no provision
for the care of technical non-residents, and for that reason he was
presenting the resolution foi' the Board's consideration.
Supervisor Brown, in discussing the resolution, pointed out that the
mattei- had lieen before the Board on several occasions, and that the
Boaid has declared, in effect, that the condition in which these people
have found themselves was an emergncy. and so aid has been extended
to them.
Thereupon. Supervisor Brown offered the following amendment:
Be It Further Resolved. That the City Attorney be furnished with a
copy of this resolution and that he be asked to inform the Board of
Supervisors as to whether, in his opinion, it is legal for the Board of
Supervisors to make gifts of public funds to persons who are techni-
cally not eligible to receive those funds under the category of relief.
SuiX'rvisor O'Gara objected to the i)roposed amendment. The proposed
amendment, he stated, presumes that the Board is attempting to do
something illegal. There is no possible way to force the Community
Chest to take care of these unfortunate people. If the Community Chest
is not going to take care of them, then the city must. The sole question
is: Is the city going to try and meet this problem now or to wait until
legally appropriated funds end on June 30th. and then try to make
MONDAY. MAY 11. 1942 907
necessary appropriations on July 1st. There is to be another endeavor
to get State Legislature to change the State law in order to permit the
use of funds for this purpose, and he intended to ask the Public Welfare
Commission to furnish a statement on amendments that should be made
to the state law.
Supervisor OGara. continuing, stated he was merely asking for
information. He was not intending to ask for any change in the present
law. He was merely proposing that during the coming fiscal year the
same policy be maintained that has been followed in the past.
Supervisor Uhl suggested that Mr. McAuliffe be requested to appear
before the Board on Monday, May 18, 1942, to present his views on the
subject. Also, the Community Chest should be represented.
Thereupon. Supervisor Uhl moved that the Public Welfare Commis-
sion and representatives of the Community Chest be requested to come
before the Board on Monday, May 18. 1942, at 2:30 P. M. to discuss the
matter of relief for technical non-residents.
No objection, and so ordered.
Whereupon, the resolution, as presented by Supervisor O'Gara, was
adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown. Gallagher, MacPhee, Meyer, O'Gara, Ron-
covieri. Shannon. Uhl — 9.
Absent: Supervisors Colman, Green, Mead — 3.

Privilege of the Floor
Miss Minrudi, representing employees of the "B" Classification, urged
passage of the foregoing Bill.
Explanations of Vote
Supervisor O'Gara, in explanation of his vote, stated that although he
had voted for salary standardization, he did not know whether the
telephone operators were entitled to the proposed salary increases or
not, and he did not think the Board should vote solely on representations
of city employees. For that reason he would vote "No."
Supervisor Shannon announced his intention to vote "Aye." He
believed the operators should be given consideration, along with other
city employees.
Supervisor Brown announced his intention to vote "No." He believed
the Board was getting away from the fundamental issue of salary
standardization, which is to set wages on the basis of comparable
wages paid elsewhere.

Thereupon, the roll was called and the foregoing Bill was Passed for
Second Reading by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Meyer, Roncovieri.

Whereas, It is generally recognized that in the event of the invasion
( 935 )
936 MONDAY, MAY 18. 1942
of the Pacific Coast, it is probable San Francisco will be among the
first cities to be attacked; and
Whereas, Due to its exposed position, our City is exceedingly vul-
nerable to such attack by enemy forces; and
Whereas, Although Civilian Defense has been adequately organized
to take care of non-combatant types of resistance to attack, no provision
has tlius far been made to augment with local effort the combatant
forces which will be opposed to the enemy; and
Whereas, Large numbers of San Francisco citizens have been and
will be non-qualified through disability, age, or other basis for defer-
ment, to become meinl)ers of the military forces of the United States;
and
Whereas, Such non-qualified citizens are nonetheless capable of taking
part in home defense; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors does hereby heartily en-
dorse the creation of a Home Guard for San Francisco, said Home
Guard to be made up entirely of San Francisco residents and citizens,
who are not qualified for active service in the Armed Forces of the
United States; and said Guard to be employed solely in augmenting
the defense of the City of San Francisco in the event of invasion of
this immediate territory by enemy forces; and be it
Further Resolved, That the Mayor is requested to call a meeting of a

Requesting Purchaser of Supplies to Purchase Oldsmobile in
Lieu of Cadillac Automobile Heretofore Requisitioned for Use
by the Board of Supervisors.
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No. 2635. as follows:
Resolved. That the Purchaser of Supplies be and he is hereby re-
quested and authorized to purchase for the use of the Board of Super-
visors a 1942 five-passenger Oldsmobile, in lieu of the Cadillac hereto-
fore requisitioned, at a price not to exceed $1575.44 in cash, plus the
Euick automobile now being used by the Board of Supervisors, for a
sum not less than $300.00.
Discussion
Supervisor Colman objected to the purchase of any automobile by the
Board, stating that under the conditions the Board's business did not
warrant such purchase. He would vote "No."
944 MONDAY, MAY 18. 1942
Supervisor Brown pointed out that every member of the Board has
a ceilain amount of travel necessary in the performance of his duties
as Supervisor. If it wei'e possil)le to use tlie Supervisors' private cars,
he would agree with Supervisor Colman. However, because of the
necessity for transportation, and the impossibility of obtaining new
tires, or even new automobiles for private use. he believed the Board
was justified in puichasing a new car.
Supervisor Uhl stated that he believed the Board should get along
with but one car. Possibly before the end of the war, the Board might
find it necessary to get along without any automobile at all. He Avould,
he declared, at the next meeting, propose legislation making it a
misdemtanor for anyone to use a city car except for city Ijusiness.
Supervisor O'Gara announced his intention to vote "Yes" on the
proposed resolution. While he appreciated the remarks by Supervisor
Colman. he felt that if any business was to remain in existence, it
would be the business of the City and County of San Francisco. The
Board of Supervisors needs a new car. If, in the future, the Board finds
it can get along with but one car, it can turn the other car over to
some other department of the city government.
Supervisor Mead disagreed with the views expressed by Supervisor
Colman. The Board does need transportation, he held. The Streets
Committee and the Finance Committee both need the use of a car,
especially since meml)ers cannot use their own machines. He believed
it would be false economy, under the circumstances and in view of the
condition of the car to be turned in on the purchase of the proposed
Oldsmobile. not to acquire a new automobile.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the foregoing resolution was
Adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Gallagher, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara, Ron-
covieri — 6.

Against Discrimination
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor O'Gara presented Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas. Discrimination against any American, because of his race,
his color or creed or national origin, contradicts the basic principles
of American democracy; and
Whereas, Discrimination in this wartime emergency prevents the
full utilization of America's manpower in the task that lies ahead of us,
and undermines the unity of effort which the war requires from the
American people; and
Whereas. At the instance of the Minority Groups Branch of the War
Production Board, the Bay Area Council Against Discrimination has
been organized among the people of San Francisco and the other cities
of the Bay Area to fight every manifestation of discrimination, to lend
every assistance to the enforcement of President Roosevelt's Executive
Order No. 8802. It was in this order that the President called for the
full and equal paiticipation of all Americans in the nation's war effort,
regardless of race, creed, color or national origin; and
Whereas. The Bay Area Council Against Discrimination is receiving
954 MONDAY. MAY 18, 1942
the generous support of citizens of every walk of life who agree that
discriniiiuition cannot continue to hold back the city's war effort;
Now, Therefore, Be It Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors of the
City and County of San Francisco do endorse and commend the purposes
of the Hay Area Council Against Discrimination;
Be It Further Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors urges upon
its fellow citizens the importance of the task the Council Against
Discrimination has undertaken and asks their full support for the

of the present war between the United States and Germany, Italy and
Japan, of the City and County of San Francisco being attacked l)y the
enemy and grave damage done to said City and County of San Fran-

tion tags or badges be furnished with the least possible delay, and that
since it is now difficult, if not impossible, due to war time priorities on

rials in the place of metal be passed with the least delay.

SPECIAL ORDER— 2:30 P, M.
Supervisor O'Gara's resolution, as follows:
Requesting Public Welfare Commission and Mayor to Advise Board
of Supervisors What Provision Is Made in 1942-43 Budget for
Care of Technical Non-Resident Indigents, and, if No Such
Provision Is Made, How Such Persons Are to Be Cared for.
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, The City and County of San Francisco has been and will
provide relief for indigent technical non-i-esidents to and including
June 30, 1942: and
Whereas, On March 19, 1942, the Community Chest of San Francisco
addressed a letter to the Honorable Angelo J. Rossi, Mayor of San
Francisco, calling attention to the fact that no provision has been made
in the City's proposed budget for the fiscal year 1942-43 for the care of
such indigents: and advising the Mayor that Community Chest contri-
butions to the relief of such indigents cannot continue beyond June 30,
1942; and
Whereas, The liudget now being considered by the Board of Super-
visors contains no apparent provision for the care of such indigents;
now, therefore, be it
Resolved. That the Board of Supervisors hereby requests the Public
Welfare Commission and the Mayor to advise this Board as soon as
possible:
1 — What, if any, provision is made in said 1942-43 budget
for the care of such technical non-residents:
2 — If provision is not made in such budget for the care of
such persons, how such persons are to be cared for, and who is
to supply funds for the care of such persons; and, be it
Further Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be sent to the
Public Welfare Commission and the Mayor, and that both are hereby
respectfully urged to furnish the information requested at the earliest
964 MONDAY, MAY 25. 1942
possible moment, and in any case before May 31. 1942, and while the
Board of Supervisors is still considering said budget.
May 18, 1942 — Consideration continued until May 25, 1942.
Privilege of the Floor
Mr. F. A. McAuliffe, in explaining the position of the Public V»'elfare
Commission as to care of technical non-residents, stated that the Com-
mission has sufficient funds in its budget to take care of the amount
requested by the Community Chest to care for indigent technical non-
residents. The Commission's position is that it does not have the kgal
authority to appropriate money to the Community Chest, but is trying
to find a legal way to appropriate money to the Chest for other pur-
poses. No agreement has yet been reached, however.
Supervisor O'Gara. however, did not agree with the position taken
by the Public Welfare Commission. San Francisco will find itself
in a very embarrassing position, he feared, if after July 1. 1942. these
indigents are not taken care of.
Thereupon, no objection being offered, the foregoing Resolution was
ordered filed.
SPECIAL ORDER— 3:00 P. M.

I
MONDAY. MAY 25. 1942 965
at length the proposed reduction of sidewalk widths on Post Street,
was received, read by the Clerk and considered.
Privilege of the Floor
Mr. Vinin.u' T. Fisher, of the Down Town Association; Mr. Lloyd
Taylor, of the Market Street Association; Mr. Raymond D. Smith, rep-
resenting the Real Estate Board; Mr. Delger Trowbridge, of the Build-
ing Owners and Managers Association; and Mr. Carl Stull, of the Re-
tail Dry Goods Association, all opposed the reduction of sidewalk widths
on Post Street.
Mr. George Skaller. Mr. A. F. Gallagher, Mr. George W. Gearhard, of
the Civic League of Improvement Clubs, and Mr. Arthur Bruillet. all
endorsed the proposed street widening.
Mr. George Melville of the City Planning Commission opposed the pro-
posed street widening. The widening, he stated, could not possibly be
completed before the opening of the Union Square Garage; the necessary
steel, cable for lamp standards, etc., cannot possibly be obtained at this
time. The street widening is not now needed, nor will it be needed for
seme time to come. The cost of the widening will be far greater than
the benefits to be received would warrant, and would impose an un-
necessary expense on the property owners.
Supervisor Shannon presented a letter, addressed to himself, in which
the City Engineer recommends the widening of Post Street.
Supervisor O'Gara announced his intention to vote "Aye" on the pro-
posed widening. He could not recall a single retail institution of con-
sequence that would be affected, he stated, and he could not understand
just how the retailers would be injured.
Supervisor Uhl favored the proposed street widening, and urged the
members of the Board to vote "Aye."
Supervisor Gallagher moved that the proposed legislation be amended
by striking from Section S37 the second paragraph, reading as follows:
"The width of sidewalks on Post Street, the northerly side of, between
Stockton and Powell Street, shall be 10 feet."
After brief discussion of the proposed amendment Supervisor Shannon
moved, as an amendment to the amendment, that in the second para-
graph of Section 837 the figures "10" be stricken out, and the figures
"15" be inserted inn lieu thereof.
No objection, and so ordered.
Supervisor Colman. in explanation of his vote, pointed out that the
Board had already passed on the widening of Post Street several years
ago. The merchants, however, requested that execution of the ordi-
nance be delayed because of the Exposition, and the interference with
theii- business during the Exposition period. No protests were made
at that time about hui'ting business or the bad effects of narrow side-
walks. The action of the Board in widening Taylor Street has been
completely justified, and it is a great success. The widening of Post
Street will be just as successful. The merchants on Post Street fear
unduly. The money has been set aside for the purpose, and the de-
cision of the Board should be registered as soon as possible. He would
vote "Aye."
Passage for Second Reading
Thereupon, the roll was called and the foregoing Bill was
Passed for Second Reading by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, MacPhee, Mead. Meyer,
OGara. Roncovieri, Shannon, Uhl— -10.

Discussion
Mr. Wm. L. Henderson, representing the Civil Service Commision.
reported, in discussing the foregoing legislation, that he had an
opinion from the City Attorney, in which the City Attorney advised
that the procedure, up to the present time in the enactment of the
foregoing legislation, had not complied with the Chai'ter provisions.
The City Attorney has advised also that the Board must first receive
from the Civil Service Commission proposed salary standardization
schedules. Having been advised of that opinion during the past week,
the Civil Service Commission took the matter up with the Finance
Committee. Earlier dui'ing the day the Commission held a special
meeting and considered salary schedules for courtroom clerks, tele-
phone operators, institutional workers and Sealer of Weights and
Measures.
The City Attorney confirmed the statement .lust made by Mr. Hen-
derson. In explaining legislation about to be submitted by the Finance
Committee, as sulistitute for legislation before the Boai'd. on Final
Passage, the City Attorney called attention to the question of Court
Room Clerks. In Bill No. 1717, on Final Passage, the schedule for
Class B-152, Courtroom Clerk is set at from .$180 to $210 per month.
In Bill No. 1719, on Passage for Second Reading, it is proposed to
divide Class B-152, Courtroom Clerks, into two classes. Class B-152a,
Courtroom Clerk (Municipal Court) and B-152b Courtroom Clerk
(Superior Court) at salary ranges respectively $180 to $190 per month,
and $215 to $225 per month. Such division of a classification cannot
be made.

Section 2. All compensations contained in Sections 11, 17. and 21 of
said Ordinance No. 1615 not in accord with this amendment are hereby
annulled and repealed.
Mr. Henderson, thereupon, explained in detail the recommendations
of the Civil Service Commission, pointing out wherein they changed
from legislation heretofore considered by the Board. In the case of
Class 1-2. Institutional Workers, the Commission recommends a wage
of $4.50 per day, which would amount to about $117 per month. The
Finance Committee's recommendation, already approved by the Board
on Passage for Second Reading, was from $115 to $135 per month. The
Commission's recommendation can be justified on the basis of com-
pensation now being paid in private institutions and in other gov-
ernmental employments.
Mr. Michael Rohan, representing the institutional workers, pointed
out that hotels are paying from $4.75 to $5.00 per day for their help
in corresponding lines of employment on an eight-hour day of straight
employment. Employments in city institutions are on a basis of
eight hours out of twelve or fourteen consecutive hours. He urged
that the Board's previous recommendations be approved.

sion the Board must accept or reject the Commission's recommenda-
tions. If the Board should amend the recommendations, they must be

sidered in its entirety.

war emergency.
Yours very truly,

San Francisco, California.

Discussion
Mr. W. L. Henderson reported that the foregoing Bill was recom-
mended by the Civil Service Commission.
In reply to questioning by Supervisor Mead. Mr. Henderson stated
that "ovei-time provisions" did not belong in a salary standardization
ordinance. Such provisions had been made a part of the Annual Salary
Oidinance.
Supervisor Mead, however, urged that provision be made in the fore-
going proposed legislation to take care of any overtime work that
might be required.
The Chief Administrative Officer, in reply to questioning, stated that
he would be willing to recommend overtime payment for employees
who actually worked ovcMtime after woi'king their regular eight hour
day.
Mr. Henderson, in answer to question by Supervisor O'Gara. stated
that he did not believe, if the language as lequested by Supervisor
Mead were to be placed in the foregoing Bill, that it would be necessary
to refer same back to the Civil Seivice Commission for further report,
inasmuch as such amendment would not constitute any change in the
recommended rates approved by the Commission. However, he would
like the City Attorney's advice on the matter.
Mr. .1. Leonard, granted the privilege of the floor on motion by
Supervisor Shannon, urged that money foi- overtime work l)e earmarked,
in order that ( mployees may get paid for overtime worked.
Thereupon, on motion l)y Supervisor Shannon, the foregoing Bill was
Passed for Second Reading by the following vote:
Ayes: Siipeivisors Biovvn, Colman, Gallagher. Green. MacPhee, Mead.

Discussion
In discussing the budget of the Recorder, Supervisor O'Gara ques-
tioned the Recorder as to possible decrease in employment due to
a falling off in the number of recordings, and a consequent reduction
in personnel.
Mr. Tom Toomey, the Recorder, in reply, stated that should a reduc-
tion in amount of recordings warrant a decrease in personnel, such
decrease would be taken care of by not filling vacated positions or
by a reduction in temporary help.
The Chief Administrative Officer, who was present, announced that
such would be his policy with regard to all departments over which
he had jurisdiction.
Approval of Budget
Thereupon, on motion by Supervisor MacPhee, seconded by Super-
visor Uhl, no objection being made, the budget of the Recorder was
approved as presented.

1050 THURSDAY, MAY 14, 1942
Explanations of Finance Committee's Recommended Reductions
Supervisor MacPhee, in explanation of the Finance Committee's
recommendations, stated that under Contractual Service the Committee
was recommending aj reduction of $120, Hire of Autos, Trucks and
Teams, cutting the allowance for "Dick" Harris from $40 per month
to $30 per month. Telephone and Telegraph appropriation was reduced
$300 and Postage was reduced $200, making a total recommended
reduction of appropriaition for Contractual Service, $620. The Com-
mittee was recommending a reduction in Equipment of $1000 and a
reduction of $150 in Materials and Supplies (Gasoline), making a total
reduction in those three appropriations of $1770. The Finance Com-
mittee was recommending a further reduction of $1000 in Appropria-
tion for Temporary Salaries.
Mr. Russell Wolden, Assessor, who was present, opposed the reduced
appropriation for Hire of Autos, Trucks and Teams. Mr. Wolden
opposed, also, the proposed reduction of $1000 in Temporary Salaries,
pointing out that by such reduction many thousands of dollars in
revenue would be lost.
Thereupon Supervisor Shannon, seconded by Supervisor Roncovieri,
moved that the amount in Appropriation for Temporary Salaries
remain at $60,000, as recommended by the Mayor.
Motion carried by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Gallagher, Green, Meyer, Roncovieri,
Shannon — 6.
Noes: Supervisors MacPhee, Uhl — 2.
Absent: Supervisors Colman, Mead, O'Gara — 3.
Approval of Budget
Thereupon, Supervisor Meyer, seconded by Supervisor Roncovieri,
moved that the Budget of the Assessor, Index No. 3, as amended, be
approved.
Motion carried by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Gallagher, Green, Meyer, Roncovieri,
Shannon — 6.
Noes: Supervisors MacPhee, Uhl — 2.
Absent: Supervisors Colman, Mead, O'Gara — 3.

1058 THURSDAY, MAY 14, 1942
Opinion of City Attorney
Mr. E. G. Cahill, in discussing the Finance Committee's recommenda-
tion to delete $160,000 for the reconstruction of the Stocltton Street
line, presented the following:
May 14, 1942.
Subject: In Re, Reconstruction and Replacement Fund of the
Municipal Railway
Dear Sirs:
I am in receipt of your communication which reads as follows:
"I am informed that the Finance Committee of the Board of
Supervisors has recommended that there be deleted from the
Municipal Railway budget the item of Track Reconstruction on
Stockton Street, Market Street to Green Street, $160,000.00, as
shown on Index No. 65, Sheet 15, Line 5.
"Under Charter Section 128.1, Reconstruction and Replacements,
I note therein it is stated the Public Utilities Commission must
create and maintain a reconstruction and replacement fund for
each utility sufficient for the purposes mentioned in this section,
and in accordance with an established practice for utilities of
similar character.
"This has been done in the present budget by the Public Utilities
Commission.
"This expenditure is contemplated to be made from the recon-
struction and replacement funds of the Municipal Railway, which
are set up under the authority granted the Public Utilities Com-
mission under Charter Section 128.1.
"I request your opinion as to the power of the Board to delete
any of the items set up in the budget by the Public Utilities Com-
mission under the authority granted to the commission by Charter
Section 128.1."
OPINION
Reconstruction and replacement are provided for in Section 128.1 of
the charter which was adopted by the people on Jaiiuary IS, 1937, and
ratified by the Legislature on April 14th of the same year. This amend-
ment was adopted for the purpose of clearing up some uncertainties
which theretofore existed in the charter as to the right of the Public
Utilities Commission to care for the physical depreciation of its prop-
erties. The section reads as follows:
"Section 128.1. For the purpose of providing funds for recon-
struction and replacements due to physical and functional depre-
ciation of each of the utilities under the jurisdiction of the com-
mission, the commission must create and maintain a reconstruc-
tion and replacement fund for each such utility, sufficient for the
purposes mentioned in this section, and in accordance with an
established practice for utilities of similar character, which shall
be the basis for the amount necessary to be appropriated annually
to provide for said reconstruction and replacements."
Prior to the enactment of this section. Section 128 as it existed
l)efore the amendment of 1937 dealt with the matter of depreciation.
Section 128, before it was amended, fixed no hard and fast rule for
determining the amount which would be placed in a depreciation fund
for each utility and for many years the depreciation fund was a fund
in name only. In other words, the fund was set up ))ut the depreciation
was not funded.
Note the mandatory provisions in the new section (128.1):
"For the purpose of providing funds for reconstruction and
replacements due to physical and functioiuil depreciation of each
of the utilities under the jurisdiction of the commission, the com-
mission vinst create and maintain a reconstruction and replace-
THURSDAY, MAY 14, 1942 1059
ment fund for each such utility, sufficient for the purposes men-
tioned in this section. . . ."
For what purpose?
For the purpose of providing funds for reconstruction and replace-
ments.
Section 121 of the charter provides for the general powers and duties
of the Public Utilities Commission as follows:
"The Public Utilities Commission shall have charge of the con-
struction, management, supervision, maintenance, extension, opera-
tion and control of all public utilities. . . ."
If the commission is to obey the mandate contained in Section 128.1,
it has the right to exercise the powers given to it by Section 121 and
one of these powers would be to determine the amount necessary for
the reconstruction and replacements of the Stockton Street line. The
commission would have the right to set up the actual amount of money
necessary, either at one time or in a depreciation fund to be augmented
year by year to provide for the reconstruction and replacements of
the tracks of the Stockton Street line.
To hold otherwise would be attempting to vest in the Board of
Supervisors a power which the charter, by clear and unambiguous
language, vests in the Public Utilities Commission. This view is sus-
tained by the provisions of Section 127 of the charter which deals
with receipts from each utility operated by the commission and pro-
vides that they shall be paid into the city and county treasury and
maintained in a separate fund for each utility. The section provides
the purposes for which appropriations from these funds shall be
made, viz.:
"(a) for the payment of operating expenses, pension charges,
and proportionate payments to such compensation and other insur-
ance and accident reserve funds as the commission may establish
or the hoard of supervisors viay require; (b) for repairs and
maintenance; (c) for reconstruction and replacements. . . ."
Note the language of subdivision (a). This subdivision does vest
in the Board of Supervisors some control of the various amounts which
must be provided to meet the charges set forth in subdivision (a) but
the same power is not carried in any of the other subdivisions. There-
fore, it would appear that the other expenditures, especially for recon-
struction and replacements, are not left to the discretion of the Board
of Supervisors but are to be determined by the Public Utilities
Commission.
In view of the foregoing I am of the opinion that Section 128.1 of
the charter makes it mandatory upon the Public Utilities Commission
to set up a fund for each utility in order to provide for reconstruction
and replacements due to physical and functional depreciation and
that the amount of this fund is to be determined by the Public Utilities
Commission and when so determined it is not subject to change by
the Board of Supervisors unless the maintenance of such a fund
would come from tax moneys and not be derived from the earnings
of the utility.
You are so advised.
Respectfully yours,
(Signed)
JOHN J. O'TOOLE, City Attorney.
To the Public Utilities Commission.
Copy to Board of Supervisors.

THURSDAY, MAY 14, 1942 1061
Supervisor MacPhee, in support of the committee's recommendation,
held that he could see nothing in the City Attorney's opinion that
states that the Boai'd cannot delete anything from the budget. Because
of the doubt as to obtaining tlie needed materials, and because of the
studies that are still being made of streets and the traffic problem, the
committee believed this item should not be set up in the budget at
this time.
Special Work, Minor Replacement, Sheet 15, Line 14. The Finance
Committee recommends reduction in this item from $25,000 to $15,000.
Supervisor MacPhee pointed out that this item is in the same category
as the previous item, and moved that the committee's recommendation
be approved. Motion seconded by Supervisor Uhl.
Explanation of Vote
Supervisor Green, in explanation of his intended vote, stated that
the City Attorney had not stated definitely whether or not the Board
can make this deletion. On the ground that the opinion does not seem
final, Supervisor Green stated, he would support the Finance Com-
mittee's recommendation.
Committee Recommendation Not Approved
Thereupon, the roll was called and the motion failed by the follow-
ing vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Uhl — 4.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Meyer, O'Gara, Roncovieri — 4.
Absent: Supervisors Colman, Mead, Shannon — 3.
Further Consideration Postponed
Thereupon, on motion by Supervisor MacPhee, further consideration
of the Public Utilities Commission's budget was postponed.

Index 26 — Chief Administrative Officer
Publicity and Advertising Appropriation
Supervisor MacPhee, seconded by Supervisor Mead, moved that the
Finance Committee's recommendation to reduce the appropriation for
Publicity and Advertising from $320,000 to $300,000 be approved.
Motion failed by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Colman, Gallagher, MacPhee, Mead, Uhl — 5.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Green, Meyer, O'Gara, Shannon — 5.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Thereupon. Supervisor MacPhee moved that the appropriation for
WPA Projects, Index 26, Sheet 1, Line 28, be reduced by $40,000.
No objection, and so ordered.
Approval of Budget
Thereupon, on motion by Supervisor MacPhee, no objection being
made, the budget of the Chief Administrative Officer, as amended, was
approved.
Discussion
Supervisor MacPhee, in discussing the budget of the Chief Adminis-
trative Officer, urged that the Finance Committee's recommendation
for reduction of $20,000 in the Publicity and Advertising Fund be
approved by the Board. He believed that, under the present conditions,
that economy could and should be effected.
The Chief Administrative Officer opposed the deletion, and recom-
mended that the maximum amount allowed by law for Publicity and
Advertising should be provided. There were, in his office, he stated,
requests for about $500,000. However, his allocations would be based
on the amount approved by the Board.
Supervisor Brown opposed any reduction in the Publicity and Adver-
tising allowance. San Francisco has to compete against Los Angeles,
which spends a million dollars a year on advertising, half of which is
a direct charge against the taxpayers. No business concern would
think of curtailing its advertising expenditures, even in war time.
Thereupon, Supervisor Brown moved that the Publicity and Adver-
tising Fund be set up at $320,000, as presented to the Board by the
Mayor. Motion seconded by Supervisor Meyer.
Supervisor Shannon moved that because of the importance of the
matter, a vote on the foregoing motion be postponed until a full
membership of the Board is present.
No objection, and so ordered.
Supervisor Brown, thereupon, suggested that the Chief Administra-
tive Officer consent to a further reduction in the WPA appropriation.
The Chief Administrative Officer, in reply to the foregoing sugges-
tion, stated that while the WPA rolls are decreasing, today there are
about 6,000 or 7,000 still on the rolls, most of whom are women, for
whom it is rather difficult to find employment in private industry.
He would hesitate to reduce that appropriation below $125,000.
Approval of Budget, with Exception of Publicity and
Advertising Appropriation
Thereupon, Supervisor MacPhee. seconded by Supervisor Uhl, moved
that the budget of the Chief Administrative Officer, with the exception
of the Publicity and Advertising Fund, be approved as recommended
by the Finance Committee.
No objection, and so ordered.
RECESS
The Board, after consideration of various matters not pertaining to
the budget (see Journal No. 19, Vol. 37, May 14, 1942), recessed at the
hour of 5:55 p. m., to reconvene on Friday, May 15, 1942, at 10:00 a.m.,
to continue its consideration of the budget.
DAVID A. BARRY, Clerk.
FRIDAY, MAY 15, 1942 1069

1076 FRIDAY, MAY 15, 1942
Discussion
Index 61, Sheet 1, Line 4, Contractual Services.
Mr. Mark Jorgensen, in explaining the supplemental budget, requests
for the City Planning Commission, urged approval of request for
$15,000 for Consulting Engineering Services, and $41,500 for Other
Professional Services.
Supervisor Uhl, in commenting on the foregoing request, announced
that he would be in favor, if necessary, of increasing the amount for
Consulting Engineering Services to $20,000.
Mr. Jorgensen requested that the appropriation for printing be
increased from $2,500 to $3,000.
Supervisor Uhl objected.
Supervisor Brown, in discussing the City Planning Commission's
budget, stated that he had never been much impressed with the policy
of hiring experts from other places to tell San Franciscans how to
run their city.
Supervisor O'Gara held that situations change so rapidly that he
did not think the Board could foresee what might be needed. He
believed the Board should approve the requests made with the under-
standing that it intends to criticize any plan submitted by the com-
mission and judge the merits of any proposal when it is presented.
Mr. Clarence King, President of the City Planning Commission,
announced that the commission would have no objection to Supervisor
O'Gara's suggestion that the Board approve or reject any proposed
contract.
Supervisor Brown, in continuing his statement, stated that the
question was not whether, but when should proposed improvements be
made. He could see no reason, at the present time, for requesting
extra services for such non-essential jobs. Such things could be well
undertaken after the war.
Further Consideration Postponed
Thereupon, further consideration of the budget of the City Planning
Commission was postponed until 3 : 00 p. m. in the afternoon session.

There being no objection, the budget of the Director of Finance and
Records w,as approved as presented:
RECESS
The Board, at the hour of 12:30 p. m., recessed to resume considera-
tion of the budget at 3:00 p. m.
DAVID A. BARRY, Clerk.
FRIDAY, MAY 15, 1942, 2:00 P.M.
The Board of Supervisors met pursuant to recess, to consider salary
standardization and other matters.
CALLING THE ROLL
The roll was called and the following Supervisors were noted present:
Supervisors Gallatgher. Green, MacPhee, Meyer, Roncovieri, Uhl — 6.
Absent: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Mead, O'Gara, Shannon — 5.
Quorum present.
Supervisor Gallagher presiding.
SPECIAL ORDER, 3:00 P.M.
At the hour of 3:00 p m., the Board, pursuant to agreement, resumed
its consideration of the budget of the City Planning Commission, Index
61, for the fiscal year 1942-1943.
However, because of the number of absentees, consideration of the
budget was continued until Monday, May 18, 1942, at 4:00 p.m.
ADJOURNMENT
There being no further business, the Board, at the hour of 3:40
p. m., adjourned.
DAVID A. BARRY, Clerk.
MONDAY, MAY 18, 1942, 4:00 P.M.
Consideration of Budget Resumed
At the hour of 4:00 p.m., during the regular meeting of May 18,
1942, proceedings of which are reported elsewhere, the Board resumed
its consideration of the budget of the City Planning Commission for
the fiscal year 1942-1943.
Supervisor MacPhee explained the reasons for detailed consideration
of the City Planning Commission by the entire Board rather than by
the Finance Committee. The Mayor has approved a supplemental budget
for the commission, because of the reorganization of that commission.
Mr. George Melville, City Planning Engineer, explained the needs
of the commission. The field of the commission includes traffic, transit,
zoning, and post war planning. There will be no duplication of effort,
but rather coordination with other departments.
Supervisor Uhl moved that the Board allow the City Planning Com-
mission two additional employments. The commission, during the
year, can lequest additional help if it is needed. He was in accord
with the commission's desire that they have a full-time engineer.
The Chair, after further brief discussion, suggested that the budget
of the City Planning Commission be re-referred to the Finance Com-
mittee with the request that the committee study it and bring in a
recommendation thereon, and he would so move. Motion seconded by
Supervisor Brown.
No objection aind so ordered.

Index No. 13 — Recreation Department
Action Rescinded
Supervisor MacPhee announced that the Finance Committee had
additional recommendations affecting the Recreation Department, and
moved tliat tlie action of the Board, whereby tlie budget of that depart-
ment liad previously been approved, be rescinded. Motion seconded by
Supervisor Uhl.
No objection, and action rescinded.
Supervisor Uhl, in discussing the budget of the Recreation Depart-
ment, called attention to $15,000 originally in the budget for Silver
Avenue playground. Miss Randall has recommended to her commission
to place $1,000 in the budget for that item; $2,000 is also recommended
for equipment and leveling off land. The Finance Committee is recom-
mending the additional appropriations.
Supervisor Roncovieri objected to any increase in the Recreation
Department budget. The Recreation Department had been given a 2c
increase in the tax rate, giving them 7c in the tax rate. The extra 2c
w^as to provide for necessary land purchases.
Approval of Budget
Thereupon, the roll was called and the budget of the Recreation
Department, with amendments as recommended by the Finance Com-
mittee, was approved by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead,
Meyer, O'Gara, Roncovieri, Uhl — 10.
Absent: Supervisor Shannon — 1.

MONDAY, MAY 25, 1942 1093
Discussion
Supervisor MacPhee explained tlie Finance Committee's recom-
mendations.
Supervisor Ulil, in enlarging upon Supervisor MacPhee's statements,
stated that tliere was in tlie budget an item of $5,000 for Municipal
Chorus. $1,000 of which was for expenses and the balance for salary
of the director. Last year the Municipal Chorus gave two concerts.
The chorus met regularly for rehearsals, though. Supervisor Uhl
recommended that the appropriation for the Municipal Chorus be not
approved, for a year, at least, and possibly for the duration of the war.
The item should be eliminated, and he would so move.
Supervisor Colman opposed deletion. The Municipal Chorus reflects
great credit on San Francisco. The cost is very reasonable for such
great cultural value.
Motion failed for want of a second.
Thereupon, Supervisor Gallagher, seconded by Supervisor Green,
moved that the $5,000 item for the Municipal Chorus be retained in
the budget.
Motion carried by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee,
Mead, Meyer, O'Gara, Roncovieri — 9.
No: Supervisor Uhl — 1.
Absent: Supervisor Shannon — 1.
Supervisor Roncovieri objected to any reduction in the amount of
appropriation for the Municipal Band. He would, however, vote "Yes"
on the Art Commission budget as originally printed.
Supervisor MacPhee moved that the Finance Committee's recom-
mendation that the appropriation for the Municipal Band be reduced
from $17,000 to $15,000 be approved. Motion seconded by Supervisor
Uhl.
Motion carried by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, Max;Phee, Mead,
O'Gara, Uhl— 8.
Noes: Supervisors Meyer, Roncovieri — 2.
Absent: Supervisor Shannon — 1.
Approval of Budget
On motion by Supervisor MacPhee, seconded by Supervisor Mead,
the budget of the Art Commission, as amended, was approved by the
following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead,
Meyer, O'Gara, Roncovieri, Uhl — 10.
Absent: Supervisor Shannon — 1.
Supervisor Uhl, in voting approval of the budget, stated that he
was approving the budget, although he was opposed to the item therein
for the Municipal Chorus.

Finance Committee recommends: Sheet 1, Line 2, 5 watchmen, re-
duced to 3.
Approval of Budget
Supervisor MacPhee, in discussing the Finance Committee's recom-
mendation for reduction of number of watchmen from 5 to 3, stated
that the Chief of Police had agreed to give all protection possible to
the De Young Memorial Museum, although he could not assign any
permanent detail there.
Supervisor Gallagher, however, moved that the two watchmen be
replaced in the budget as originally recommended by the Mayor.
Motion failed by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, Meyer, Roncovieri — 3.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, MacPhee, Mead, Green, O'Gara,
Uhl— 7.
Absent: Supervisor Shannon — 1.
The Clerk, following the foregoing roll call, called attention to the
fact that such a motion was unnecessary, inasmuch as ■ the Finance
Committee could not make any reductions in the budget, as presented
to the Board, but could only recommend changes.
Approval of Budget
Thereupon, on motion by Supervisor MacPhee, the budget of the
De Young Memorial Museum, Civilian Defense Emei-gency, as recom-
mended by the Finance Committee, was approved.

Discussion
Supervisor MacPhee explained in detail the reasons for the Finance
Committee's recommended deletions in the budget of the Civilian
Defense Council.
The Finance Committee has set up in a supplemental budget recom-
mendation, the sum of $380,000 for emergencies, to be made available
when necessary. The Board of Education and the Art Commission
has offered the use of motion picture projections, thus making unneces-
sary any appropriation lor such e(iuipment. As for traveling expense,
printing, etc., the Finance Committee considers that any necessary
amounts could be paid out of the $380,000.
Mr. John Helms, Director of Civilian Defense, on being granted the
privilege of the floor, objected to the recommendations of the Finance
Committee. The reductions contemplated, he stated, would reduce
MONDAY, MAY 25, 1942 1099
possible activities for Civilian Defense. However, the elimination of
the chief of service is in order because a supplemental request has
been made covering the position of Assistant Director. As to Press and
Radio Coordinator, Mr. Helms felt that service to be absolutely essen-
tial. The item. Motion Picture Rental, is for rental of films and not
for machines. That is absolutely essential. The films are needed for
training personnel of the service and for educating the public. He
would agree to the elimination of the item, Portable Motion Picture
Projectors, since equipment cam be borrowed from other city depart-
ments. He could not see at the present time exactly how much will
be needed for materials and supplies. The item for Traveling Expense
is absolutely essential for the operation of the Air Raid Warden
service. The item of $12,000 for belts is necessary for the protection
of the Auxiliary Police service. They are identifying marks which
make it possible to direct traffic at night. That item should be retained
in the budget.
Supervisor MacPhee pointed out that the committee is recommend-
ing a supplemental budget of $380,000. The committee, he continued,
has been criticized for reduction of $100,000 for defouling stations.
Because of the importance of the matter, the committee has made a
further check-up and is recommending $100,000 for constructing and
equipping a defouling station. Thereupon, Supervisor MacPhee moved
approval of the Finance Committee's recommendation re defouling
station.
No objection, and recommendation approved.
Supervisor MacPhee then moved approval of the supplemental budget
for $380,000, to be drawn on as needed.
No objection, and supplemental recommendation approved.
Index 2, Sheet 3, Line 2, Chief of Service. Supervisor MacPhee,
seconded by Supervisor Uhl, moved elimination.
No objection, and so ordered.
Index 2, Sheet 3, Line 5, Press and Radio Coordinator. Supervisor
MacPhee, seconded by Supervisor Uhl, moved elimination.
Mr. John Helms objected to the proposed elimination.
Supervisor O'Gara, in explanation of his vote, stated that in all
such doubtful questions he intended to vote to retain the appropria-
tion. He believed it would be good insurance. He believed that the
Board should take the position that it could expect the worst, as far
as San Francisco is concerned. San P^rancisco cannot expect to save
pennies under the circumstances. He would vote in favor of retaining
the position of Press and Radio Coordinator.
Supervisor MacPhee, in reply, merely stated that the Finance Com-
mittee was of the opinion that $380,000 can be drawn on when neces-
sary. If it is found that the positions need filling later on, the
committee can recommend the matter to the Board.
Supervisor Green, in expressing his views, stated that in general
he was inclined to go along with the Finance Committee, but in
matters of this kind, he believed the recommendations of the Director
of Civilian Defense should be approved, unless there should be a good
reason for doing otherwise.
Supervisor O'Gara suggested that the item be allowed to remain in
the budget, with the understanding that such action be without preju-
dice to any report the Finance Committee might want to make on
the subject prior to the time the position is filled.
Mr. Helms reiterated that in his opinion the position was necessary.
However, the Finance Committee has indicated a splendid attitude of
willingness to work the thing out. The Finance Committee will meet
with the Civilian Defense Council weekly and discuss some of the
items affecting that council. Although he believed the position was
essential if the Board desired to defer action, with the view of taking
funds from the $380,000, if necessary, he would not object.
1100 MONDAY, MAY 25, 1942
Supervisor Meyer objected to the proposed elimination. He believed
there should be a reserve of more than $380,000. One air raid would
use up the amount of $380,000.
Thereupon, the roll was called on the motion to delete the item,
Index 2, Sheet 3, Line 5, Press and Radio Coordinator, at $300 per
month.
Motion failed by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Colman, MacPhee, Mead, Uhl — 4.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Gallagher, Green, Meyer, O'Gara, Ron-
covieri — 6.
Absent: Supervisor Shannon — 1.
Index 2, Slieet 3, Line 8, Temporary Salaries. Mr. Helms offered
no objection to the elimination of the item for Temporary Salaries.
Index 2, Sheet 3, Line 15, Printing Posters, Quarter Cards, etc.
Supervisor MacPhee moved that the committee's recommendation for
reduction from $23,500 to $10,000 be approved. Mr. Helms offered no
objection to the reduction.
No objection, and committee's recommendation approved.
Index 2, Slieet 3, Line 16, Motion Picture Rental. Mr. John Helms
objected to the deletion of appropriation for motion picture rental,
as recommended by the Finance Committee. The Defense Council
definitely sees need for this appropriation.
Supervisor MacPhee explained the reason for the Finance Com-
mittee's recommendation, stating that the committee had questioned
the need for this item because of the fact that so many films have
been donated in the past. The committee hopes such donations will
be continued in the future. If the committee is satisfied that there
is a need to rent motion picture films and it becomes necessary to
appropriate funds for that purpose, those funds can be appropriated
out of the $380,000.
Thereupon, the roll was called on the recommendation of the Finance
Committee to delete the item, Index 2, Sheet 3, Line 16, Motion Picture
Rental, $2,500. and the Finance Committee's recommendation was
refused approval by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, MacPhee, Mead, Uhl — 5.
Noes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green, Meyer, O'Gara, Roncovieri — 5.
Absent: Supervisor Shannon — 1.
Index 2, Sheet 3, Line 17, Other Contractual Services. Mr. Helms
offered no objection to the deletion of the appropriation for Other Con-
tractual Services.
No objection, and Finance Committee recommendation to delete the
foregoing item was approved.
Index 2, Sheet 4, Line 6, Travel Expense. Mr. Helms objected to
the deletion of appropriation for Travel Expense, $21,000. At the
request of Mr. Helms, Mr. John McKeon explained the necessity for
the foregoing appropriation. At present, stated Mr. McKeon, there are
26,000 air raid wardens enrolled, and the Defense Council is in the
process of enrolling 25,000 more. The appropriation requested was
originally $28,500, based on the rate of $25 per month for each of 195
men for the use of their own automoliiles. The $21,000 now requested
is for the purchase of automobiles and their upkeep for the fiscal year.
The automobiles would be purchased by the Police Department.
Supervisor MacPhee announced that the Finance Committee had
not approved the item for travel expense. The committee desired
more time to study the matter, and it was the intention of the com-
mittee to bring in, later on, a recommendation for or against the item.
Any appropriation, if it should be deemed necessary, could be made
out of the $380,000.
MONDAY, MAY 25, 1942 1101
Thereupon, Supervisor MacPhee, seconded by Supervisor Uhl, moved
that the Finance Committee's recommendation that the appi'opriation
for travel expense be eliminated, be approved.
Motion tailed by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, MacPhee, Mead, Uhl — 5.
Noes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green, Meyer, O'Gara, Roncovieri — 5.
Absent: Supervisor Shannon — 1.
Index 2, Sheet 4, Line 22, Portable Motion Picture Projectors. Super-
visor MacPhee moved deletion of the foregoing item. Mr. Helms offered
no objection.
Thereupon, no objections being made, the Finance Committee recom-
mendation that the appropriation of $2,400 for portable motion picture
projectors be eliminated was approved.
Index 2, Sheet 7, Line 24, Furniture. Supervisor MacPhee moved the
appropriation for furniture be reduced from $4,251 to $2,000. Mr. Helms
offered no objection to the recommended reduction.
Thereupon, no objection being made, the Finance Committee recom-
mendation to reduce the appropriation for furniture from $4,251 to
$2,000 was approved.
Index 2, Sheet 11, Line 4, Temporary Salaries. Supervisor MacPhee
moved elimination of the appropriation for temporary salaries. Mr.
Helms offered no objection to the recommended elimination.
Thereupon, no objection being made, the Finance Committee recom-
mendation to eliminate the appropriation for temporary salaries was
approved.
Index 2, Sheet 14, Line 2, Night Sticks. Supervisor MacPhee moved
that the appropriation for night sticks l3e reduced from $9,000 to
$4,000. Mr. Helms offered no objection to the recommended reduction.
Thereupon, no objection being made, the Finance Committee recom-
mendation that the appropriation for night sticks be reduced from
$9,000 to $4,000 was approved.
Index 2, Sheet 14, Line 4, 4,000 Belts (for night sticks). Supervisor
MacPhee moved that the appropriation of $12,000 for belts be elimi-
nated. The Chief of Police, who was present, informed the Board that
in his opinion the belts were necessary. Mr. Helms repeated the
objection that he had previously made to the elimination of the fore-
going item.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the motion to delete the aippro-
priation for 4,000 belts (for night sticks), $12,000, failed by the follow-
ing vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Colman, MacPhee, Uhl — 3.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Gallagher, Green, Mead, O'Gara, Ronco-
vieri—7.
Absent: Supervisor Shannon — 1.
Supplemental Budget Request — Assistant to the Coordinator and
Director of Civilian Defense
Mr. John R. Cahill, Chairman of the Advisory Board, Civilian Defense
Council, called attention to request by him, addressed to the Mayor,
asking that the budget for Civilian Defense be increased by the amount
of $4,800 per year to provide for a full-time assistant to the Coordinator
and Director of Civilisin Defense, together with the Mayor's approval
of that request.
Mr. Helms, in urging the approval of the supplemental recommenda-
tion, reiterated his previous statements that it is urgently necessary
that a man be provided for that position.
Mr. John Cahill supported the recommendation of Mr. Helms.
Supervisor Uhl announced that he had suggested that the Mayor
return Captain Skelly to that position. During Mr. Cullenward's
1102 MONDAY, MAY 25, 1942
absence from the Mayor's office, on his Civilian Defense assignment,
the Mayor did not lill tliat secretarial position.
Supervisor Meyer, in discussing the Supplemental Budget request
stated that he believed Mr. Helms should have an assistant and
that he should be permitted an assistant of his own choice, and he
would so move. Motion seconded by Supervisor Gallagher.
Supervisor Colman, in explanation of his vote, stated that he had
already voted favorably on the matter, and he could see no change
in the situation. He would vote "Aye."
Supervisor Brown suggested to the Board that any roll call should
be on approval of the supplemental budget.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the supplemental budget, to
provide an additional appropriation of $4,800 to provide for a full-
time assistant to the Coordinator and Director of Civilian Defense,
was approved by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, Meyer, O'Gara,
Roncovieri^ — 7.
Noes: Supervisors MacPhee, Mead, Uhl — 3.
Absent: Supervisor Shannon — 1.
Supervisor MacPhee moved that the budget of the Civilian Defense,
as amended by the Board of Supervisors, be approved. No second.
Supervisor Gallagher moved that further action on the budget of
Civilian Defense be deferred. No second.
Supervisor Brown moved adoption of the Civilian Defense budget
as amended by the Board of Supervisors.
Supervisor Gallagher, thereupon, moved that action be postponed
until 2:00 p.m. Motion seconded by Supervisor Green.
Motion failed by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green — 2.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara,
Roncovieri, Uhl — 8.
Absent: Supervisor Shannon — 1.
Point of Order
Thereupon, Supervisor Brown raised as a point of order that the
motion by Supervisor Gallagher was an amendment to his motion
that the roll be called on adoption of the budget of Civilian Defense.
The Chair declared the point of order well taken.
Supervisor Roncovieri announced that he felt, since the Board had
voted on each budget item seriatim, he had already voted on the
budget.
Supervisor Gallagher requested information as to the status of the
budget for Civilian Defense. What is the Board to vote on? What has
been deleted from the budget of Civilian Defense?
The Chair, in reply to Supervisor Gallagher, announced that Infor-
mation should be obtained from the City Attorney.
Privilege of the Floor
During the foregoing consideration of the budget for Civilian Defense,
Supervisor Mead moved approval of the floor for Mr. James Rlcketts,
newly appointed manager of the Golden Gate Bridge.
Mr. Rlcketts, In brief statement to the Board, thanked the Board
for giving him the opportunity of becoming the manager of the
bridge, by first appointing him as director of the Golden Gate Bridge
and Highway District, for without having been appointed as director
he would not have become manager. He realized the responsibility
attached to his new position, and would give all his time and his
best efforts to the job.

BUDGET CONSIDERATION
Adoption of Budget, Civilian Defense
Supervisor Gallagher moved that the budget of Civilian Defense
Council, Index 2, as amended by the Board, be approved.
Motion carried by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer,
O'Gara, Shannon, Uhl — 9.
Absent: Supervisors Brown, Roncovieri — 2.
Action Rescinded
Supervisor Shannon, seconded by Supervisor Uhl, moved that the
action of the Board, whereby the budget of Civilian Defense Council
was approved, be rescinded.
Mr. David A. Lewis, in reply to questioning by Supervisor Shannon
as to the duties of Press and Radio Coordinator, answered that the
position, as was explained to him, was for the purpose of arranging
radio time and arranging with the newspapers a more detailed and
systematic coverage of the news.
Supervisor O'Gara, thereupon, remarked that if the Board intended
to review the budget for Civilian Defense Council, Mr. Helms should
be present.
Supervisor Shannon, however, stated he merely desired to know
why it is necessary to have a full-time man for Press and Radio
Coordinator. The newspaper men in the City Hall will get any news
1104 MONDAY, MAY 25, 1942
they can for publicity purposes. The budget can well be reduced, so
far as press information is concerned, and it is doul)tful if a full-time
radio coordinator is needed.
Thereupon. Supervisor Gallagher, seconded by Supervisor Mead,
moved that further consideration of the Civilian Defense Council be
postponed temporarily.
No objection, and so ordered.
Subsequently, during the proceedings, the budget of the Civilian
Defense Council was again taken up.
Following a discussion as to the number of votes required to approve
the budget of Civilian Defense, Supervisor MacPhee moved that the
budget be approved, with the exception of items questioned.
Supervisor Brown declared the motion was out of order. The Board
should dispose of all items first, and then approve the budget.
The chair ruled thait the items in question are now in the budget,
and could be removed therefrom only after approval of proper motions,
by a majority vote of the Board. Whether or not the questioned items
are eliminated, it will require nine votes to approve the budget of
the Civilian Defense Council.
Supervisor O'Gara stated he believed motions should be made to
include these questioned items in the budget. Then the Board could
act on them in a positive way, rather than in a negative way. Accord-
ingly, he would move to include in the budget, one Chief of Service
at $500, Index 2. Sheet 3, Line 2.
Supervisor MacPhee objected to the motion. The Finance Committee
has not refused to allow these items; all it has requested is that time
be permitted for further study. There is an appropriation of $380,000
from which these items can be cleared. Therefore, he would move
that the budget for Civilian Defense Council be approved as recom-
mended by the Finaince Committee. Motion seconded by Supervisor Uhl.
Supervisor Gallagher moved, as an amendment to the motion, that
the Board take up each item for which deletion has been recommended,
seriatim.
The chair ruled that the matters should be so taken up.
Thereupon, Supervisor Shannon, seconded by Supervisor Gallagher,
moved that the item of Chief of Service at $500, Sheet 3, Line 2, be
eliminated.
Supervisor MacPhee moved that, in accordance with the chair's
ruling, item in Index 2, Sheet 2, Line 2, Director of Civilian Defense,
at $600 per month, be approved.
Supervisor Brown objected to the motion. There are, he stated, only
four items that are controversial
Supervisor Shannon, following Supervisor Brown's objection, that
what was before the Board was the Finance Committee's recommenda-
tion for the deletion or reduction of about twelve items. The Finance
Committee's recommendations should be taken up seriatim. That was
the reason for his motion that the item, Chief of Service at $500, be
eliminated.
The Chair declared the motion to be in order.
Thereupon the roll was called, and the item. Chief of Service, was
eliminated by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Gallagher, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara,
Shannon, Uhl— 8.
Noes: Supervisors Colman, Green — 2.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Supervisor MacPhee, seconded by Supervisor Uhl. moved that Press
and Radio Coordinator at $300 per month, Sheet 3, Line 5, be elimi-
nated.
MONDAY, MAY 25, 1942 1105
Motion failed by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Colman, MacPhee, Mead, Uhl — 4.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Gallagher, Green, Meyer, O'Gara, Shan-
non— 6.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Supervisor MacPhee, seconded by Supervisor Meyer, moved that
Temporary Salaries, $3,720, Sheet 3, Line 8, be eliminated.
No objection, and so ordered.
Supervisor MacPhee, seconded by Supervisor Meyer, moved that
Appropriation for Printing Posters, Quarter Cards, etc., be reduced
from $23,300 to $10,000.
No objection, and so ordered.
Supervisor MacPhee, seconded by Supervisor Mead, moved Appropria-
tion for Motion Picture Rental, $2,500, Sheet 3, Line 16, be eliminated.
Motion failed by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, MacPhee, Mead, Uhl — 5.
Noes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green, Meyer, O'Gara, Shannon — 5.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Supervisor MacPhee, seconded by Supervisor Mead, moved that
appropriation for Other Contractual Services, $1,700, Sheet 3, Index
17, be eliminated.
No objection, and so ordered.
Supervisor MacPhee, seconded by Supervisor Uhl, moved that Appro-
priation for Travel Expense, $21,000, Sheet 4, Line 6, be eliminated.
Motion carried by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Uhl — 6.
Noes: Supervisors Gallagher, Meyer, O'Gara, Shannon — 4.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Supervisor MacPhee, seconded by Supervisor Mead, moved that
Appropriation for Portable Motion Picture Projectors, $2,400, Sheet 4,
Line 22, be eliminated.
No objection, and so ordered.
Supervisor MacPhee, seconded by Supervisor Uhl, moved that Appro-
priation for Furniture, $4,251, Sheet 7, Line 24, be reduced to $2,000.
No objection, and so ordered.
Supervisor MacPhee, seconded by Supervisor Uhl, moved that Appro-
priation for Temporary Salaries, $3,720, Sheet 11, Line 4, be eliminated.
No objection, and so ordered.
Supervisor MacPhee, seconded by Supervisor Mead, moved that
Appropriation for Night Sticks, Sheet 14, Line 2, be reduced from
$9,000 to $4,000.
No objection, and so ordered.
Supervisor MacPhee, seconded by Supervisor Uhl, moved that Appro-
priation for 4,000 Belts, Sheet 14, Line 4, $12,000, be eliminated.
Supervisor MacPhee, in explaining the reasons for the committee's
recommendation, stated that the committee considered this appropria-
tion unnecessary. The Auxiliary Police have arm bands, jackets and
white hats, and are easily recognized.
Motion carried by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Uhl — 6.
Noes: Supervisors Gallagher, Meyer, O'Gara, Shannon — 4.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Index 2, Sheet 4, Line 6, Travel Expense. Supervisor Meyer moved
that the action of the Board, whereby the appropriation for Travel
1106 MONDAY, MAY 25, 1942
Expense, $21,000, as eliminated from tlie budget of the Civilian Defense
Council, be rescinded.
Motion failed by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green, Meyer — 3.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, MacPhee, Mead, O'Gara, Shannon,
Uhl— 7.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Approval of Supplemental Budget, $330,000
Thereupon, Supervisor MacPhee moved that an additional $330,000
be added to the $50,000, unallocated amount for Civilian Defense, mak-
ing the total unallocated appropriation $380,000, as recommended by
the Mayor in his communication of May 21, 1942, copy of which is
printed in full elsewhere in this Journal, be approved.
No objection, and Supplemental Budget approved.
Approval of Supplemental Budget, $100,000, for
Decontamination Facilities
Supervisor MacPhee moved that Supplemental Budget in amount of
$100,000 for Decontamination Facilities, as recommended and approved
by his honor, the Mayor, be approved.
No objection, and Supplemental Budget approved.
Supplemental Budget, Creating Position of Assistant Director
of Civilian Defense
Supervisor Gaillagher, seconded by Supervisor Colman, moved that
the Supplemental Budget approved by the Mayor, for the creation of
position of Assistant Director of Civilian Defense, be approved.
Motion failed by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, Meyer, O'Gara
—6.
Noes: Supervisors MacPhee, Mead, Shannon, Uhl — 4.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.

Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead,
O'Gara, Shannon, Uhl — 9.
No: Supervisor Meyer — 1.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Board of Supervisors, Index 1
The Board of Supervisors took up consideration of the budget. Board
of Supervisors, Index 1, consideration of which had previously been
temporarily postponed.
Supervisor MacPhee again explained the Finance Committee's recom-
mendations thereon.
Index 1. Sheet 3, Line 27. Dues, Alta California, Inc. Supervisor
Shannon, in discussing the Finance Committee's recommendation to
delete the appropriation of $500 for dues for Alta California, Inc.,
urged that the committee recommendation be not approved. Alta Cali-
fornia, Inc., he pointed out, was doing splendid work for the counties
of northern California. San Francisco County is now in very good
standing with the northern California counties due to her activities
and membership and attendance at the meetings of Alta California,
Inc. He would vote against the Finance Committee's recommendation,
and he would reriuest a roll call on that item.
Supervisor MacPhee explained the reason for the Finance Commit-
tee's recommended deletion. The committee felt the appropriation to
be a needless one — that it was a duplication of an appropriation for
the County Supervisors' Association.
MONDAY, MAY 25, 1942 1107
Supervisor Gallagher announced that he would go along with Super-
visor Shannon. He believed, too, the Board should retain its member-
ship in the League of California Municipalities (Cities).
Supervisor Green strongly urged that San Francisco retain member-
ship in both the Alta California, Inc., and the League of California
Cities. The cost of such membership is insignificant compared to the
benefits that will be derived. San Francisco has been too penny wise
and pound foolish, he felt. San Francisco cannot afford to give up
membership in either of these organizations.
Supervisor Meyer opposed the proposed deletions. He felt the cost
of membership in both organizations was an extremely good invest-
ment.
Supervisor Colman, also, expressed opposition to the deletions of
appropriations for memberships in both Alta California, Inc., and the
League of California Cities. San B^'rancisco's participation in the activi-
ties of both organizations tends to create good will. Good will of our
neighboring counties will pay good dividends. Those items should
remain in the budget.
Thereupn, Supervisor Shannon moved that the Board approve the
Finance Committee's recommendations except the deletion of $625 for
membership dues in the League of California Cities and $500 for mem-
bership dues in Alta California, Inc.
Supervisor MacPhee moved that further consideration of the two
foregoing discussed items be postponed temporarily.
No objection, and so ordered.
Index 1, Sheet 2, Line 3, Cost Analyst. Supervisor Uhl called atten-
tion to the position of Cost Analyst, Index 1, Sheet 2, Line 3, and
stated that in his opinion the Board has not sufficient use for a cost
analyst to warrant its retention in the Board's budget. The position
wa-s formerly attached to the Controller's staff, and should be returned
there. Thereupon, Supervisor Uhl moved that the item. Cost Analyst,
$3,120, Index 1, Sheet 2, Line 3, be deleted from the Supervisors'
Budget. Motion seconded by Supervisor Colman.
Mr. Harry Ross, Chief Deputy Controller, suggested that the proper
action would be to transfer the position to the Controller's ofl^ice,
rather than to delete it from the Supervisors' Budget.
Supervisor Shannon opposed the motion. The position does not affect
the tax rate in any way, he stated. The Cost Analyst has done some
valuable services in the past, and we still have matters coming up
from time to time which few men in the city's employ have the ability
to analyze and report on to the Finance Committee. It would be a
great mistake to delete the position, or to transfer it to the Controller's
office. He would vote against the motion.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the motion to delete the position
of Cost Analyst failed by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Colman, Gallagher, Uhl — 3.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara,
Shannon — 7.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Index 1, Sheet 2, Line 15, Chauffeur. Supervisor Uhl moved deletion
of Chauffeur, Index 1, Sheet 2, Line 15. Motion seconded by Supervisor
Colman.
Supervisor Colman, after seconding the foregoing motion, stated that
if the motion should carry, the chauffeur whose position was deleted
would take his place at the head of the eligible Civil Service list for
chauffeurs without loss of seniority or salary, and would be appointed
to the first available position.
[ Mr. Henderson, representing the Civil Service Commission, stated
that undoubtedly the commission would permit a transfer of a chauf-
feur to some other department, at the current rate of pay, where such
IIOS MONDAY, MAY 25, 1942
transfer was not voluntary. However, seniority, with respect to lay-off,
is governed by date of appointment to a department.
Supervisor Mead opposed the motion. For eleven members of the
Board there aire two automobiles. Sometime or other every Supervisor
finds use for one of the chauffeurs. Supervisor Uhl, himself, has sent
a chauffeur around town at all hours of the day or night. The services
of the chauffeurs, whether we are with them or not, are required.
There are three automobiles in the Mayor's office for the use of one
man, and two automobiles with the Board of Supervisors for the use
of eleven members. To delete one machine does not make sense, espe-
cially since in the future we will have to depend on the city's cars
to get some of our work done. The members of the Board should not
be foolish enough to delete one of these chauffeurs.
Mr. Henderson, in reply to questioning by Supervisor O'Gara, an-
nounced that unless there should be a place for a chauffeur for imme-
diate transfer, if one of the chauffeurs of the Board should be deleted
from the budget, that chauffeur would, of course, not continue on the
payroll.
Thereupon, Supervisor O'Gara expressed himself, saying that he
thought to chop men from the payroll who had served the city for
years on a matter of doubtful economy was very bad policy.
Mr Joseph L Bury, in reply to questioning by Supervisor Mead,
supported the statement by Supervisor Mead that Supervisor Uhl,
himself, had demanded the services of a chauffeur at all hours of the
day and night, and reported that he had been on assignments by Super-
visor Uhl checking on lights in certain portions of the city. Such
assignments had required his services at 1:00 to 2:00 o'clock in the
morning.
Supervisor Colman. in further expressing his views, stated that in
his opinion the Board had no use for two automobiles. For ten years
of his twenty years' service on the Board, a machine had been assigned
to him for Saturday morning, and he never knew it. He still had the
use of a machine for Saturday mornings, but very seldom used it.
The Board should set an example in economy by getting along with
one machine.
Thereupon the roll was called and the motion to delete one position
of Chauffeur,' Index 1, Sheet 2, Line 15, failed by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Colman, Uhl — 2.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer,
O'Gara, Shannon — 8.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Approval of Budget
Thereupon, Supervisor MacPhee, seconded by Supervisor O'Gara.
moved approval of the Supervisors' Budget, as printed, but with the
reductions recommended by the Finance Committee, as follows:
Index 1, Sheet 3, Line 4, Printing Journals, Calendars, Resolutions,
etc., reduced from $14,000 to $13,000.
Index 1, Sheet 3, Line 4. Pul)lication of Ordinances and Resolutions,
reduced from $16,000 to $15,000.
Index 1, Sheet 3, Line 16, Miscellaneous Materials and Supplies,
reduced from $500 to $250.
Motion carried by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer,
O'Gara, Shannon — 8.
No: Supervisor Uhl — 1.
Absent: Supervisors Colman, Roncovieri — 2.
Mayor, Index 2
Supervisor MacPhee called attention to the Mayor's budget, con-
MONDAY, MAY 25, 1942 1109
sideration of which had been temporarily postponed earlier in the day,
and moved that the budget be approved, as recommended by the Finance
Committee. Motion seconded by Supervisor Mead.
Index 2, Sheet 2, Line 15, Chauffeur. Supervisor Uhl moved as an
amendment, that Index 2, Sheet 2, Line 15, providing for two chauf-
feurs, be amended by eliminating one chauffeur.
Motion failed for want of a second.
Mayor, Emergency Reserve, Index 2
The following communication from his honor, the Mayor, protesting
any reduction in the Mayor's Emergency Reserve Fund, as recom-
mended by the Finance Committee:
May 21, 1942.
To the Honorable,
The Board of Supervisors,
City Hall, San Francisco, Calif.
Gentlemen:
Enclosed is copy of a letter from the San Francisco Civilian
Defense Council and copy of a resolution passed by the Civilian
Defense Council in which the Mayor and the Board of Supervisors
are requested "to provide in the Civilian Defense budget an un-
allocated fund of $380,000, consisting of $230,000 being withdrawn
from the Emergency Fund, originally requested in the Mayor's
budget, and $150,000 additional funds." The resolution also recom-
mends an additional provision for $100,500 for decontamination
facilities.
Under date of May 19 I forwarded your Honorable Board a
recommendation that the sum of $100,000 be included in the
1942-43 budget for decontamination facilities; therefore, that por-
tion of the appended resolution dealing with these facilities is a
duplication and is not considered in this letter. My letter of May
19 also recommended that the sum of $50,000 be included in the
1942-43 budget to take care of unforeseen expenses.
Inasmuch as the San Francisco Civilian Defense Council believes
that the unallocated amount should be $380,000 instead of $50,000
as originally recommended, I hereby recommend that an additional
sum of $330,000 be included in the 1942-43 budget to take care of
unforeseen expenses, thus raising my total recommendation in this
respect to $380,000, last requested by the Civilian Defense Council.
I wish to make it plain, however, that I do not concur in the
suggestion contained in the resolution that any part of the $380,000
come from the Emergency Reserve Fund. The two are entirely
separate and have no bearing upon each other. The only similarity
between the two is that they are to take care of unforeseen con-
tingencies. Here the similarity ends, however, because the Emer-
gency Reserve Fund, provided by Section 79 of the Charter, is for
the purpose of taking care of any and all emergencies which might
arise in any department of the city and county government during
the ensuing fiscal year and is not restricted nor is it intended to be
restricted to one department of government. Certainly we cannot
foresee at this time all expenses which may become necessary in
Civilian Defense, and that activity of government should have a
reserve fund upon which to draw in the event the funds are neces-
sary. By the same token, other departments in the city and county
government likewise must be protected, and it is for the latter
purpose that the Emergency Reserve Fund was provided for in
the Charter.
I am informed that it will be the recommendation of the Finance
Committee to the full Board that the Emergency Reserve Fund,
requested by me at the maximum of $364,363 be reduced to $200,-
000. I must protest this action of the Finance Committee because
I believe the maximum allowable by the Charter (Section 79 —
1110 MONDAY, MAY 25, 1942
"The annual appropriation for said fund and the annual tax rate
therefor shall not exceed one percentum of the amount of the levy-
required to meet all other expenditures ***") should be provided
in the 1942-43 budget in order to provide in so far as possible for
any contingencies that may present themselves to the various
city departments during 1942-43.
The purposes for w^hich the appropriations from this fund may
be made are defined in Section 16 of the Charter as "immediate
necessary preservation of public peace, property, health or safety,
provision for the uninterrupted operation of any city and county
department or office, or action required to comply with time limi-
tations as established by law**", and are further defined in Section
25 of the Charter as "** a public emergency involving or threaten-
ing the lives, property and welfare of the citizens, or the property
of the city and county."
We are going into a war year during which no one can foresee
what emergencies may occur. It seems to me that common pru-
dence would dictate that the maximum allowable by the Charter
must be provided in the Emergency Reserve Fund in such times.
Also, the budgets of the various city departments have been reduced
so drastically for 1942-43 that there is no likelihood of any depart-
mental surpluses developing next year, as was the case during the
current fiscal year.
Although the Emergency Reserve Fund is referred to frequently
as the Mayor's Fund, this is incorrect. Under the Charter no
appropriations may be made from this fund unless nine members
of the Board of Supervisors approve the appropriation. Thus the
Board always has full knowledge of the nature of each proposed
appropriation from this fund and unless nine members of the
Board approve, no appropriation can be made nor can any funds
be expended.
Again I repeat that the sum of $364,363 is anything but excessive
to take care of any emergency which may occur and which may
affect any or all other departments of the city and county as well
as the San Francisco Civilian Defense Council.
Because of the reasons set forth hereinabove, I most respectfully
urge the members of the Finance Committee to reconsider their
previous action and recommend to the full Board the sum of
$364,363 for the Emergency Reserve Fund for the fiscal year 1942-
43, together with the sum of $380,000 for an unallocated fund in the
Civilian Defense Council budget.
Yours very truly,
ANGELO J. ROSSI, Mayor.
Supervisor Meyer, following the reading of the foregoing communica-
tion, opposed the Finance Committee recommendation to reduce the
Mayor's Emergency Reserve Fund to $200,000.
Approval of Finance Committee's Recommendations
Supervisor MacPhee, seconded by Supervisor Meyer, moved that the
following Finance Committee's recommendation be approved:
Index 2, Sheet 3, Line 7, Storage and Care of Vehicles, reduced from
$625 to $300.

$300.
Total reduction in the two foregoing items of $425.
No objection, and foregoing recommendations approved.

1130 MONDAY, MAY 25, 1942
Discussion
Index 40, Sheet 1, Line 2, Contractual Services. Mr. Ivan Flamm,
who, on motion by Supervisor Sliannon, opposed the recommendation
of tlie P"'inance Committee to reduce tlie item for Contractual Services
from $194,190 to $176,880, a reduction of $17,310. This amount should
be left in the budget, assuring the employees affected of continuity of
employment.
Mr. John O'Connell urged the Board not to approve the Finance
Committee's recommendation. Some of the men affected are employees
of thirty years' standing, or more.
Mr. Thomas A. Brooks, Chief Administrative Officer, asserted that
the items were deleted by him, not by the Finance Committee. The
Board of Supervisors cannot make any additions to the budget. He
was satisfied that the positions are not necessary. Since he, himself,
had taken the employments out from the budget, neither the Mayor nor
the Board of Supervisors can replace them. However, if there should
be work for these men, they will be called for.
Mr. John O'Connell questioned the right of any individual, other
than the Mayor, to eliminate any item from the budget.
The Chief Administrative Officer, however, informed the Board that
if the items should be left in the budget he would, on July 1st, drop
from the payroll the employees affected, whether the money is in the
budget or not. He would not spend the taxpayers' money needlessly,
regardless of Mr. O'Connell or anyone else.
Thereupon, Supervisor Gallagher, seconded by Supervisor O'Gara,
moved that further action be deferred and the advice of the City
Attorney requested on the question of the right of the Chief Adminis-
trative Officer to delete any item from the budget.
Supervisor Mead agreed with Supervisor Gallagher. The Board
should have the advice of the City Attorney on this question.
Supervisor Colman announced his intention to vote against the
motion. At the same time he commended the Chief Administrative
Officer for his courage and his ability to stand up for what he believes
to be right.
Supervisor Mead, on behalf of the employees to be affected, again
pointed out that they had been employed by the city and county for
many years, and he pleaded with the Chief Administrative Officer to
reconsider his attitude in the matter, and to endeavor to make some
arrangements to bring about a condition so these employees can con-
tinue their employment. They are entitled to consideration.
The Controller, when questioned, stated that the entire question
was whether or not the employments under consideration are in the
budget. If they were in the budget it was up to the Board whether
they should remain in; if they were not in the budget there was noth-
ing for the Board to do. However, the employments were in the budget.
Thereupon, the Clerk presented and read a communication from the
Chief Administrative Officer, stating that he had reduced the budget
request by elimination of appropriation for these employments.
Thereupon, Supervisor Gallagher, after pointing out that inasmuch
as the employments still appeared in the budget, when presented to
the Board l)y the Mayor, he believed the Board should defer action
until after hearing from the City Attorney.
Supervisor Roncovieri moved postponement of action on motion until
10:00 a.m. on Tuesday, May 26, 1942.
The Controller, however, urged because of the volume of work to be
performed in getting the Annual Appropriation Ordinance in proper
form for publication, the Board not to postpone action.
Whereupon, at the suggestion of the Chair, action was postponed
temporaiily and the City Atttorney sent for.
MONDAY, MAY 25, 1942 1131
Subsequently during the proceedings, consideration of the foregoing
matter was resumed.
Supervisor Gallagher moved that the budget of the Department of
Public Works, Bureau of Engineering, Index 40, be approved as pre-
sented by the Mayor.
Whereupon, Supervisor MacPhee pointed out that the Finance Com-
mittee was recommending additional changes.
Supervisor Colman, in his discussion, held that the amount of
$17,310 should, in his opinion, be taken from the budget. The Chief
Administrative Officer has stated that this appropriation is not neces-
sary. He would not go behind the statement by the Chief Administi'a-
tive Officer.
Supervisor Gallagher, however, stated that if the $17,310 is retained
in the budget, the employees affected will be able to retain their Civil
Service rights. The appropriation should remain in the budget.
Supervisor O'Gaira stated that while he had great admiration for
the Chief Administrative Officer, and for what he is trying to do, he
felt that the Board had the right to approve this questioned appro-
priation. During the recent depression many corporations held on
their staffs men whom they would need in the future. The Board
should vote to keep this item in the budget. In voting for the retention
of this appropriation, he was not voting against the Chief Administra-
tive Officer, but merely against the idea of firing men who have worked
for the city and county for many years.
Thereupon, Supervisor Gallagher moved that the amount of $17,310
be not deleted from the budget. Motion seconded by Supervisor Ron-
covieri, and carried by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara, Ron-
covieri. Shannon — 7.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Green, Uhl — 4.
Approval of Budget
After brief explanation of additional recommendations by the Finance
Committee, Supervisor MacPhee moved that the budget of the Depart-
ment of Public Works, Bureau of Engineering, Index 40, with the
additional recommendations of the Finance Committee, be approved.
Motion carried by unanimous vote.

1144 MONDAY, MAY 25, 1942
Discussion
Mrs. Mary R. Schwab, Assistant Secretary, Joint Higliway District
No. 10, on being granted the privilege of the floor, stated that the
budget for Joint Highway District No. 10 should be considered before
considering the budget for Joint Highway District No. 9. Mrs. Schwab
presented communication by the district, addressed to the Board,
requesting the inclusion in the budget of appropriation for Joint High-
way District No. 10. Opinion from the City Attorney, pointing, out
that once a Joint Highway District had been created, funds therefor
must be appropriated. After quoting portion of Section 19 of Act 3269
of the Joint Highway District Act of the State of California, the City
Attorney ruled as follows:
"You are therefore informed that the Board of Supervisors has no
right to delete from the budget demands for assessments duly and
regularly made by the Board of Directors of said Joint Highway Dis-
trict No. 10."
Thereupon, Supervisor Roncovieri stated that after hearing the
opinion of the City Attorney there seems to be nothing left to do
but to move restoration of the $51,000 assessed by Joint Highway
District No. 10, and he would so move. Motion seconded by Supervisor
O'Gara.
The Chief Administrative Officer announced that the item was deleted
by him before the budget went to the Mayor. He did not propose to
have in the budget, and charged to one of his departments, any appro-
priation over which he had no control.
Supervisor Brown asserted that in his opinion the Board of Super-
visors was powerless in the matter, and there was nothing before the
Board.
The Chair ruled Supervisor Roncovieri's motion to be out of order.
The Board, the Chair held, had not authority to insert the amount in
the budget.
The Controller, however, pointed out that the appropriation being
considered has its origin in gas tax funds, over which the Board has
exclusive control, and stated that the Board could restore the appro-
priation in the budget.
Supervisor Meyer, in discussing the matter, pointed out that the city
and county has made contracts with both Highway Districts, No. 9
and No. 10, and is obligated to pay its share of the cost of both projects.
Mr. M. D. Johnson, Engineer for Joint Highway District No. 10,
explained in detail the work now being performed in District No. 10.
Thereupon, Supervisor Green, seconded by Supervisor Shannon,
moved the previous question.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the motion to restore $51,000 for
Joint Highway District No. 10 was approved by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Gallagher, Meyer, O'Gara, Roncovieri,
Shannon — 6.
Noes: Supervisors Colman, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Uhl — 5.
Index 48, Sheet 1, Line 7, Joint Highway District No. 9. Supervisor
Meyer pointed out that other counties in the Joint Highway District
No. 9 have already appropriated their quota. A contract has already
been entered into. Therefore, he moved that the appropriation of
$66,000 for Joint Highway District No. 9, Index 48, Sheet 1, Line 7,
be restored to the budget. Motion seconded by Supervisor Roncovieri.
Explanation of Vote
Supervisor Colman, in explanation of his vote, stated he did not
believe San Francisco had to make this appropriation. He did not
agree with the opinion of the City Attorney in the matter. He had
MONDAY, MAY 25, 1942 1145
never been in favor of these Joint Highway Districts and had always
voted against their establishment. He would vote "No" on the fore-
going motion.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the motion to restore $66,000 in
the budget for Joint Highway District No. 9 was approved by the
following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green, Meyer, O'Gara, Roncovieri,
Shannon — 6.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, MacPhee, Mead, Uhl — 5.
Approval of Budget
Thereupon, Supervisor Roncovieri, seconded by Supervisor Gallagher,
moved that the budget of the Department of Public Works, County
Roads, Construction — Index 48, be approved as amended.
Motion carried by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, Meyer, O'Gara,
Roncovieri, Shannon — 8.
Noes: Supervisors MacPhee, Mead, Uhl — 3.

tion affecting Stockton Street reconstruction.
Thereupon, Supervisor MacPhee requested the approval of the
Finance Committee's recommendations with the exception of that

Whereupon, Supervisor MacPhee moved that the recommendation of
the Finance Committee to eliminate item, Index 65, Sheet 15, Line 5,
Stockton Street, Market to Green, $160,000. The Finance Committee is
recommending this deletion because of the changing program with
respect to the Market Street Railroad, the removal of street car services
on Sutter Street, as ai result of the City Planning Commission's inves-
igation, and the question of obtaining materials for work.
Motion failed by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors MacPhee, Mead, Shannon, Uhl — 4.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, Meyer, O'Gara,
Roncovieri — 7.
Approval of Budget
Thereupon, Supervisor MacPhee moved that the budget of the Muni-
cipal Railway, Index 65, as recommended by the Finance Committee,
with the exception of the immediately foregoing item for the recon-
struction of the Stockton Street line, be approved.
Motion carried by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer,
O'Gara, Roncovieri, Shannon, Uhl — 10.
No: Supervisor Brown — 1.
Approval of Budget, San Francisco Water Department, Index 66
On motion by Supervisor MacPhee, no objection being made, the
budget of the San Francisco Water Department, Index 66, action on
which was heretofore postponed, was taken up and approved.

Index 54 — Department of Public Health, Emergency Hospitals
Consideration of the budget of the Department of Public Health,
Emergency Hospitals, Index 54, which had been postponed previously,
was, on motion by Supervisor Shannon, again taken up.
Supervisor Shannon, seconded by Supervisors Mead and Green, moved
that there be added to the budget an amount of $125,000 for an emer-
gency hospital in the Richmond District.
The hospital. Supervisor Shannon stated, would be similar in style
to the hospital on Alemany Boulevard. It would accommodate eight
male and six female patients. The City Architect has estimated it
would cost $79,500. The balance of the appropriation amounting to
about $45,000, would be for personal services, contractual services,
equipment, etc. The hospital could be erected at the foot of the Police
Station lot, at Sixth Avenue and Geary Boulevard. The district has
been requesting this hospital for the past eight years.
Supervisor Colman stated that inasmuch as the proposal had not
the approval of the Chief Administrative Officer he would vote "No"
on the motion.
Mr. Harry Ross, representing the Controller, reminded the Board
that it could not include in the budget any amount for personal
services, contractual services, materials and supplies, etc., and the
$125,000 should be reduced by $17,200.
Supervisor Green, in support of the motion, held that inasmuch as
there are no such conveniences now, this is a very important matter
and should be approved.
Supervisor Uhl suggested that arrangements might be made with
the French Hospital for emergency hospitalization.
Supervisor Colman pointed out that if the motion by Supervisor
Shannon should be approved, there would be provision for a hospital
but for no equipment or personnel.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the motion by Supervisor Shan-
non was approved by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, Ronco-
vieri, Shannon, Uhl — 8.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, O'Gara — 3.
Supervisor Gallagher called attention to item in the budget for posi-
tion. Chief of Bureau of Inspections. The position was included in the
budget for 1941-1942, but never filled.
Mrs. Dolen explained that the position is being recommended as the
result of a survey by the Civil Service Commission.
Supervisor Gallagher, however, moved that the position. Chief of
Bureau of Inspection, be deleted from the budget of the Department of
Public Health. Motion seconded by Supervisor Meyer.
Supervisor Colman opposed the motion. It is recommended by the
Health Officer and l)y the Chief Administrative Officer, who are of the
opinion, as the result of a survey, that it will result in greater efficiency.
The position should be approved.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the motion to delete the position.
Chief of Bureau of Inspections, was defeated by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer — 4.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Green, O'Gara, Shannon, Uhl — 6.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri— 1.

Committee recommends appropriation, $5,000, for Crystal Palace Baths

Discussion
Supervisor Shannon, in discussing the request for Crystal Palace
Baths, pointed out that $10,000 has already been allowed for that
MONDAY, MAY 25, 1942 1175
purpose. That amount, he believed, was very liberal, and he could not
vote for the additional $5,000, which would merely give the life insur-
ance company that holds mortgages on the property, more money.

to provide for $5,000 additional for rental of Crystal Palace Baths
was defeated by the following vote:

Action Rescinded
Supervisor Shannon, following the foregoing action by the Board,
stated that he did not think there had been sufficient explanation of
the supplemental budget recommendation made, and he moved that
the foregoing action be rescinded and that Mr. Lewis, from the Mayor's
office, furnish an explanation of the matter. Motion seconded by Super-
visor Gallagher.
No objection, and so ordered.
Thereupon, Mr. Lewis explained the foregoing recommendations,
pointing out that employees of the Park Department who are subject
to salary standardization, and for whose classifications salary ranges
have been set up, are taken care of. These employees in the supple-
mental budget recommendation just considered have not yet had salary
ranges esta))lished. These employees came under Civil Service only
last September. The Mayor and the Park Commission recommend these
salaries in an attempt to equalize salaries of those employees not yet
taken care of by salary standardization. Mr. Henderson has stated
that the salaries proposed are within the ranges that will be submitted
by the Civil Service Commission.
Supervisor O'Gara, in explanation of his vote, stated that he had
voted for salary standardization with the belief that salaries would
be standardized. The result, however, seems to be general wage in-
creases. He thought, too. that the Mayor should have reported these
recommendations to the Board earlier. He believed requests for salary
increases now are bad, and he voted "No."
Supervisor Brown announced his intention to vote "No." There has
MONDAY, MAY 25, 1942 1179
been no evidence at all submitted to indicate that these are proper
scales. In his opinion, this is a loose type of procedure.
Supervisor MacPhee stated he would vote "No." He had not had
time to make a proper examination of the recommendations.
Supervisor Shannon stated that as a result of the explanation by
Mr. Lewis, the Board would have a little clearer insight into the
recommendations. He would vote "Aye."
Thereupon, the roll was called and the foregoing supplemental budget
recommendations were disapproved by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green, Mead, Meyer, Shannon — 5.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, MacPhee, O'Gara, Uhl — 5.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.

IISO MONDAY, MAY 25, 1942
Approval of Budget
All departmental budget requests having l)een considered and action
thereon taken, Supervisor MacPhee moved that the budget for the fiscal
year 1942-1943 be approved, as amended by the Board of Supervisors.
Discussion of Budget
Supervisor Brown, in discussing the budget, announced that when
the budget should be before the Board on final passage, he would
present a statement about the entire procedure and the results thereof.
He would vote against the budget, although he would vote in favor of
the appropriation ordinance.
Supervisor Colman, in explanation of his vote, announced that he
had usually voted for the budget in the past. He commended the indus-
try and close attention to duty of the Finance Committee, but he was
very much disappointed with the budget and he would vote "No."
However, he would vote "Yes" on the Appropriation Ordinance.
Supervisor O'Gara stated that although he was not satisfied with
the budget, he believed it was too important a matter on which to
register such protest. He would vote as if his own were the one
decisive vote. The City Departments cannot function if we do not
approve the budget.
Thereupon, Supervisor MacPhee presented the following letter, which,
at his request, was read by the Clerk:
May 25, 1942.
Board of Supervisors,
City Hall, San Francisco.
Gentlemen :
In presenting the recommendations of the Finance Committee
on the 1942-1943 budget, I wish to express my sincere apprecia-
tion to those who have contributed so much to bring about a
complete and thorough analysis of the budget.
To Chief Administrative Officer Thomas A. Brooks, who appeared
regularly at our meetings from 7:00 a.m. on and without whom
our investigations would have been incomplete and whose unselfish
cooperation was a source of extreme pleasure to the members of
the committee.
The Controller, Harold Boyd, who recommended the procedure
of complete investigation of every item by the Finance Committee.
To Administrative Assistant to the Mayor Dave Lewis, whose
constructive criticisms and keen cooperation inspired the com-
mittee.
To Vincent Ryan and .John Roper, of the Controller's office,
who gave unstintingly of their time and effort.
To Sam Holton and Clerk Dave Barry of the Board of Super-
visors, who gave freely of their time beyond the call of the duties
of their office, and to Mrs. Dolen of the Civil Service Commission.
Also, especially to Supervisors Adolph Uhl and Dewey Mead,
without whom a real, intelligent survey of the budget would not
have been possible. Both of these men deserve a new and greater
respect from the citizens of San Francisco as a result of their
efforts.
Every item in the seventy-million dollar budget has been exam-
ined and although $1,000,000 was reduced from the Mayor's recom-
mendations, almost every reduced item was accepted by the depart-
ment head. In the inteiest of time and efficiency, a booklet of the
budget has been prepared, showing all reductions by the Mayor
and Finance Committee.
Altliough it is understood and realized that the Board may not
agree on all recommended reductions, it is hoped that the Super-
MONDAY, MAY 25. 1942 1181
visors will support the recommendations of the Finance Committee
wherever possible.
Respectfully submitted,
CHESTER R. M.vcPHEE, Chairman,
Finance Committee.
Supervisor Uhl, in speaking about the Finance Committee's considera-
tion of the budget, announced that he had never worked with anyone
with whom he got along so well as with Supervisor MacPhee; he is
quick on the trigger; he has an analytical mind. He cannot be praised
too highly for the honest, earnest manner in which he carried out
his duty as Chairman of the Finance Committee.
Supervisor Mead expressed agreement with statement by Supervisor
Uhl. However, he had been unable to be present at all of the meetings,
so full credit should be given to Supervisors MacPhee and Uhl.
Budget Disapproved
Thereupon, the roll was called and the budget for the fiscal year
1942-1943 was disapproved by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Green, O'Gara — 2.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer,
Shannon, Uhl — 8.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Action Rescinded
Thereupon, Supervisor Mead, seconded by Supervisor Meyer, moved
that the action just taken be rescinded.
Motion carried by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer,
O'Gara, Shannon. Uhl— 9.
Noes: Supervisor Brown — 1. ,
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Renewal of Motion for Adoption of Budget
Thereupon, Supervisor MacPhee, seconded by Supervisor Mead re-
newed the motion for approval of the budget.
Supervisor MacPhee, speaking on his motion, announced that he did
not agree with many things in the budget, but that the budget must
be adopted, and it should be adopted by unanimous vote of the Board.
The Finance Committee, he continued, has had a lot of "kicks in the
face." The committee should have received a great deal more support
in view of the work it had done. Now there should be unanimity of
action. All differences should be buried and the budget should be
adopted by unanimous vote.
Supervisor Brown, in explaining his views, stated that he sincerely
believed that the votes he cast were cast in the best interests of the
City and County of San Francisco, and not for any one group of tax-
payers. He believed that a very serious error had been made in grant-
ing a number of salary increases in the budget, and he did not believe
the taxpayers could collectively stomach the tremendous increased
burden placed upon them.
Supervisor Colman. in reply to questioning by Supervisor Gallagher,
stated that should the Board fail to adopt the budget, it would have
to go over the matter again and come to a meeting of minds. In the
past, he continued, he had voted for budgets in which he did not
agree; he could not do that now.
Supervisor Brown, in discussing the budget further, stated that the
major difference in this year's budget originally submitted by the
Finance Committee over last year's budget, includes: Public Welfare
Department, $47,000; Bond Interest and Redemption, $505,000; Sewer
1182 MONDAY, MAY 25, 1942
Construction, $269,000; Equipment, Fire Department, $172,000; and
many minor items ranging from $50,000 to $109,000. Among major in-
creases are: Civilian Defense, increases in Fire Department, Health
Department, Municipal Railway, etc. Non-recurring items total over
$1,000,000. In spite of that this budget is increased about $1,500,000
over last year's budget. That means the budget represents some $2,500,-
000 more than it should. It is an accomplishment that cannot be looked
on with satisfaction by the people who have to pay the bills. Tax
requirements from the federal government have been raised to a point
where everyone will feel them very severely. City employees were very
well dealt with last year. They received increased salaries which antici-
pated any increases in the cost of living. This year we have gone even
farther. He believed himself justified in voting "No" on this year's
budget.
Supervisor Colman, in explaining his views, stated: "There is noth-
ing personal in my remarks. I am sincere when I compliment the
attention to duty and the intelligent manner in which the Finance
Committee has handled the budget. And I join in my appreciation of
the splendid work of the various assistants. Notwithstanding that,
however, I cannot go along with the budget. I feel we could have done
a very much better job. I do not wish to slap the Finance Committee,
or anyone else. I cannot make this unanimous by voting for it. I have
to voice my dissatisfaction with the budget. I think the Finance Com-
mittee has failed to carry out its trust."
Supervisor Green stated that he felt that the Finance Committee
had done very excellent work, and he would like to have the budget
voted unanimously.
Supervisor Uhl announced that he had sat down in Finance Com-
mittee with a determination to cut the budget, and to reduce the tax
rate. Relief demands are much lower than formerly, but Civilian
Defense has skyrocketed. The Chairman of the Board voted for Civilian
Defense. In conclusion, Supervisor Uhl announced his intention to vote
against the budget, but inquired of the President just what his objec-
tions were.
Supervisor Mead announced that he agreed with Supervisor Uhl.
However, he would go a bit farther than did Supervisor Uhl. BotTi
Supervisors who have voted "No" on the budget voted for increases of
salaries in the higher brackets, and they voted for many matters in
the Civilian Defense budget. They cannot get around that. He could
not understand why they should persist in voting "No" when in so
many instances there was nothing else the Board could do. Since
Supervisors Brown and Colman were insistent on voting "No," he too,
would vote "No."
Supervisor Shannon stated that he could not recall any substantial
amounts recommended l)y the Finance Committee that had been voted
down by the Board; therefore, he failed to see where a "No" vote was
a consistent vote. Neither did he recall any substantial amounts
approved in the budget over the protest of the Finance Committee.
Supervisor O'Gara announced his intention to vote "No," and he
hoped that the Board would be able to make changes in the budget
that would be satisfactory to all members.
Supervisor MacPhee stated he would vote against the budget.
Supervisor Uhl again inquired as to just what the objections to the
budget were, and he suggested that an itemization be made of those
items. There was a considerable amount of money involved in salaries
for institutional workers; he would vote for those salaries again, if
called upon so to do. Supervisor Brown has stated, continued Super-
visor Uhl, that there were many salary increases. Just what were
those increases? The charter calls for salai-y standardization, Avhich is
now an accomplished fact, for which he would compliment Supervisor
MacPhee. Any increases in the budget occasioned by salary standard-
MONDAY, MAY 25, 1942 1183
ization should not be placed on the shoulders of the Finance Com-
mittee. Such criticism would not be fair or right.
Supervisor Colman, in reply, stated that if the Supervisors felt that
the budget was good, they should pass it; if they felt it not to be good,
they should not pass it. That should be the determining factor. How-
ever, there is no need for a unanimous vote on the budget; many
budgets have been passed without unanimous vote.
Supervisor Shannon renewed his question previously put, and in-
quired directly from Supervisor MacPhee, Chairman of the Finance
Committee, whether there were any recommendations of the Finance
Committee, amounting to any material sums, which were voted down
by six votes of the Board of Supervisors.
Supervisor MacPhee replied, stating that he would be glad to go
over the budget later and furnish that information. There was one
item, however, which he remembered distinctly, an amount of $160,000
for reconstruction of Municipal Railway lines on Stockton Street, on
which the Finance Committee had been overruled. That amount, how-
ever, was not reflected in the tax rate.
Supervisor Mead reminded Supervisor Shannon that the Board had
increased the Finance Committee's recommendation for Publicity and
Advertising.
Supervisor MacPhee then recalled that the Finance Committee had
been overruled with respect to a number of items for Civilian Defense.
Supervisor Colman, in further explanation of the reasons for his
disapproval of the budget, announced that he believed in standardiza-
tion, but not in standardization that does not standardize. Every mem-
ber of the Board, he continued, knows full well that telephone oper-
ators, stenographers, electric elevator operators, do not begin at any-
thing like the wages paid in the city hall. This is not the time to
standardize because wages are very high on the outside, no more than
it is right to standardize at the depths of a depression. Wages now
have gone up to a degree that everyone knows will not be maintained.
The Chief Administi-ative OfRcer made a recommendation and stated
very clearly that men whom he desired to replace would get positions
on the outside and they had no work to do here. That is his respon-
sibility and the Board of Supervisors ignored it. He admired the stand
of Supervisor Shannon for the Richmond emergency hospital, but it is
an unprecedented action for the Board to take against the recommenda-
tion of the chief of the department, and was most unwise. That means
$100,000. Many other similar matters would come to his mind. Such
things represented a great deal of money. In view of such actions, and
the way department heads have been ignored in their recommendations
— those are the things that have influenced him to vote against the
budget. However, he did not desire to criticize members in exercising
their rights.
As to supporting the Finance Committee, he believed he had sup-
ported that committee as much, or perhaps more, than most members
of the Board. Several hundred thousand dollars increase in the budget
are due to salary raises. He objected to the wage approved for street
car men, and asserted that no street car men in California receive
$7.00 per day for comparable work. Institutional wokers are not paid
such wages on the outside, and the charter forbids payment of wages
higher than those on the outside. Street sweepers and others are to be
paid overtime pay for work which is not really overtime, but for regu-
lar work.
Those were his reasons for voting "No."
Supervisor O'Gara, in explaining his own views, stated that he did
not question the sincerity of Supervisor Colman, but pointed out that
if the other memliers of the Board should refuse to vote for the budget
simply because it did not meet with their entire approval, there would
be no budget. The budget must be approved, and the President knows
that it would be very misleading, and would make some of us appear
1184 MONDAY, MAY 25, 1942
as rascals for voting for a budget to which he was opposed. For that
reason he would, in spite of the request by the Controller not to recess,
move that the Board recess, to reconvene at 5:00 p.m. to consider any
amendments that might be proposed by the President and by Super-
visor Brown, unless the Supervisors are prepared to present such
amendments immediately. He, himself. Supervisor O'Gara stated, had
always tried to vote conscientiously on each matter. Now since his
views have not prevailed in all cases he must take it as sportsmanly
and as good government and good business to get the budget passed.
Motion to recess seconded by Supervisor Gallagher.
Supervisor Shannon pointed out that there was a motion before the
Board, to which Supervisor O'Gara's motion was not germain.
Whereupon, the Chair ruled that there was a motion before the
Board to adopt the budget. While that motion was pending, the Board
could not recess.
The Controller, in addressing the Board, pointed out that the Board
had completed its deliberations on a $70,000,000 budget. Of that $70,-
000,000. $50,000,000 is beyond the. ability of the Board to change in
any way. Fourteen million dollars, or 20 per cent of the total budget,
is for bond interest and redemption. Twelve million dollars is for the
school department, over which the Board has no power. That is about
16 per cent of the entire budget. Salary standardization has been
adopted, and that is beyond the power of the Board to change in the
immediate future. Apart from standardization of salaries, the total
payroll is $24,000,000 only, or more than 33% per cent of the budget.
Many salaries are set by the charter itself. There is about 70 per cent
of the budget which the Board can not readily change, and of the
remaining 30 per cent there is a great deal that the Board would not
want to change. There is very little in the Department of Public
Health that the Board would want to change, and nothing in Civilian
Defense. If the Board is going to review the budget it is well that it
recognizes now that the field of its function keeps narrowing and
narrowing. The City Attorney has already informed the Board that
this budget, in order to be a legal budget, must be adopted by the
26th day of May, and there are now only 16 hours left of the 26th day
of May. There might be as much as four hours left if the Board desires
to come back to struggle through the little bit of steadily narrowing
amount of money over which it has jurisdiction. The practical thing
would be for the Board, by majority vote, to adopt the budget now
and let the clerical work that must be done be stated so that the
budget can be printed.
Thereupon, Supervisor Gallagher raised a point of order. Supervisor
O'Gara has moved that the Board recess to a time certain. That motion
has been seconded.
Supervisor Brown stated he desired to raise a point of personal
privilege. He was sure, he stated, that the Controller had no individual
in mind when he was speaking. 'I want to make the members of the
Boai-d know," continued Supervisor Brown, "that I tried to vote sin-
cerely on this matter. I think the record will show how I have voted
on each individual item. My vote on the full budget is in conformity
with my vote on the individual items. My vote has been cast the way
I feel."
Supervisor Colman, in further brief remarks, stated his conscience
was his guide and he did not care what might be thought of him as
long as he felt he was right.
Mr. David Lewis, in reply to questioning, stated that there is an
increase in the budget of about one million dollars.
Supervisor TThl thereupon announced that he would move to amend
the motion to recess until 1:30 p.m. instead of until 5:00 p.m. Motion
seconded by Supervisor Gallagher.
Thereupon. Supervisor Shannon called attention to the fact that
MONDAY, MAY 25, 1942 1185
Supervisor Gallagher, having seconded the original motion, could not
second the motion to amend.
The Chair declared the point of order well taken, and ruled that
the motion to amend was lost for want of a second.
Whereupon, the roll was called and the motion to recess until 5:00
p.m. was defeated by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, O'Gara, Meyer — 3.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Shannon,
Uhl— 7.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Thereupon, Supervisor O'Gara suggested that if Supervisors Colman
and Brown had any amendments to offer, that they do so. If the
amendments are good, he would vote for them. An effort should be
made for the Board to agree on the budget.
Thereupon, Supervisor Colman announced that he would vote for
many of the salary amendments. However, he would ask that Super-
visor Shannon's proposal for the Richmond emergency hospital "be
amended.
Supervisor Brown suggested a motion that it be the sense of the
Board that the pay raises granted to institutional help be stricken
from the budget. They amount to about $150,000.
Supervisor MacPhee held that Supervisor Brown was wrong, and
the raises for institutional help did not amount to more than $60,000,
if that much.
Supervisor Colman declared that a statement was made by Mr. Hen-
derson that there are no carmen in California receiving $7.00 per day
for two-man car operation.
Supevisor Mead asserted that such statement, if made, was incorrect.
Supervisor Colman suggested that the Board delete the $17,310 re-
tained in the budget against the recommendation of the Chief Admin-
istrative Officer.
Thereupon, Supervisor Uhl renewed his motion to recess until 1:30
p. m., stating that in the meantime he desired information as to what
the tax rate would be. Motion seconded by Supervisor Gallagher.
Motion failed by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, Uhl — 2.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer,
O'Gara, Shannon — 8.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Supervisor Gallagher, seconded by Supervisor MacPhee, moved that
the Board recess for ten minutes.
Motion carried by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer,
O'Gara, Shannon, Uhl — 9.
No: Supervisor Brown — 1.
Supervisor Mead called attention to pending motion by Supervisor
MacPhee, to approve the budget, and moved a call of the Board. Motion
seconded by Supervisor Uhl.
Chair, however, ruled that the Board was in recess, and so could
not conduct any business.
1186 TUESDAY, MAY 26, 1942
TUESDAY, MAY 26, 1942, 5:30 P.M.
The Board of Supervisors reconvened pursuant to recess.
The roll was called and the following Supervisors were noted present:
Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer,
O'Gara, Shannon, Uhl— 10.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Supervisor MacPhee moved that no members of the Board be allowed
to leave the chambers until after the budget had been approved, and
that a guard be stationed at the door to prevent anyone from leaving.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Uhl.
However, motion was not pressed and no action taken thereon.
Thereupon, Supervisor MacPhee called for a vote on his motion to
approve the budget.
Motion failed by the following vote:
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead,
Meyer, O'Gara, Shannon, Uhl— 10.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Supervisor Brown announced that salary standardization raises total
some $260,000, and moved that it be the sense of the Board that in the
final consideration of the budget, items making up these increases in
the budget be removed. Motion seconded by Supervisor Colman.
The Chair announced that the motion was in order, but it would have
to be followed by proper legislation to bring about the desired effect.
The approval of the motion, continued the Chair, in reply to question
by Supervisor Shannon, would eliminate all salary increases due to
salary standardization.
Whereupon, Supervisor Shannon pointed out that such action would
be contrary to the charter.
The Chair agreed, but at the same time stated that there was a
difference of opinion as to the kind of standardization that the Board
had adopted.
Supervisor Brown announced that should the motion carry, he would
undertake to single out the separate raises which would be eliminated.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the motion failed by the following
vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman — 2.
Noes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara,
Shannon, Uhl— 8.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Supervisor Brown, seconded by Supervisor Colman, thereupon moved
that it be the sense of the Board that $150,000 granted institutional
workers be deleted from the budget.
Motion failed by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman — 2.
Noes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara,
Shannon, Uhl— 8.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Supervisor Uhl moved to reduce the amount in the Mayor's Emer-
gency Reserve Fund by $100,000. Motion seconded by Supervisor
Gallagher.
TUESDAY, MAY 26, 1942 1187
Explanations of Votes
Supevvisor Colman. in explaining his vote, announced his opposition
to the motion. The Board has already cut that appropriation, and this
proposed reduction would be taking too much away, and would be
very unwise.
Supervisor Brown announced that he had already voted to reduce
the Mayor's Emergency Reserve Fund $164,000, and he believed, as did
Supervisor Colman, that the fund should not be reduced more.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the motion to reduce the Mayor's
Emergency Reserve Fund by $100,000 failed by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, Uhl — 2.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer,
O'Gara, Shannon — 8.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Supervisor MacPhee moved that the Publicity and Advertising Fund
be reduced to $150,000.
Supervisor Mead moved, as an amendment to the motion, that the
entire amount set up in the Publicity and Advertising Fund be deleted.
Supervisor MacPhee agreed to the amendmnt.
Supervisor Colman. in explaining his vote, stated that the Publicity
and Advertising Fund was necessary, and a great deal of good would
come from it, and if possible, it should be larger. The money, under
the direction of the Chief Administrative Officer, is very well handled.
He would vote against elimination.
Supervisor Uhl pointed out that the Chief Administrative Officer,
before the Finance Committee, had stated that he wished the entire
amount could be wiped out. That would save him a lot of grief and
trouble.
Supervisor Shannon opposed the motion. The Publicity and Advertis-
ing Fund is absolutely necessary at this time. San Francisco has been
advertised around the country as the city that has been "blacked out."
Newspapers of the East carry stories that theaters are closed. This
fund is ridiculously petty against the Los Angeles fund of a million
dollars.
Supervisor Brown, in explanation of his vote, stated that Super-
visor Colman had already expressed his views.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the motion to eliminate the
entire Publicity and Advertising Fund failed by the following vote:
Aye: Supervisor Mead — 1.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Meyer,
O'Gara, Shannon, Uhl — 9.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Supervisor Gallagher moved that the Publicity and Advertising Fund
be reduced to $200,000.
Motion failed by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green. Uhl — 3.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara,
Shannon — 7.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Supervisor Gallagher, in commenting on the series of motions just
made, and defeated, stated that he felt the Board was wasting its
time. It is apparent, he continued, that no one wants to accept any
amendments. He, himself, felt that the Publicity and Advertising Fund,
at this time, was a non-essential, and $200,000 was more than ample
for advertising and publicity at this time. California is well advertised
all over the United States.
Supervisor Colman announced that he would agree to a reduction
in that amount of $70,000.
1188 TUESDAY, MAY 26, 1942
Supervisor Brown called attention to an appropriation of $17,310 for
salaries, in the Bureau of Engineering, Department of Public Works,
and moved that the Board reconsider its action and vote by which
that item had been approved. Motion seconded by Supervisor Colman.
Supervisor Gallagher reminded the Board of the Chief Administrative
Officer's statement that he intended to lay off the men affected on
July 1st. If he does so, the money will remain in the General Fund
anyway.
Supervisor Meyer opposed the motion, stating he would not vote to
put any man out of a job.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the motion was defeated by the
following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman — 2.
Noes: Supervisors Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara,
Uhl— 7.
Absent: Supervisors Roncovieri, Shannon — 2.
Supervisor Colman, following the action of the Board on the fore-
going series of motions, announced that the members of the Board who
had voted "Yes" on the various appropriations in the budget, should,
logically, vote in favor of the budget. He and Supervisor Brown had
voted consistently against the items they did not approve, and so
should vote against the budget. There could be no denying of such
statement. Supervisor Colman concluded.
Supervisor MacPhee, in reply to Supervisor Colman, stated: "I am
not in favor of the entire budget, but I am willing, for the sake of
good sportsmanship, to go along with the budget. However, I will not
so vote until you and Supervisor Brown vote for it. I will stay here
until Hell freezes over."
Supervisor Uhl moved that the budget of the City Planning Com-
mission be reduced by $30,000. Motion seconded by Supervisor Gal-
lagher.
Supervisor MacPhee, speaking on the motion, stated that if he felt
that the budget would be approved by such reduction, he might feel
inclined to vote for the motion. However, he believe it would be an
idle act to cut out any items unless such deletions or reductions would
result in some good.
Supervisor Mead agreed with the views expressed by Supervisor
MacPhee, stating that there was no assurance that members would
change their opinions.
Supervisor Colman, in further comment on the proceedings, stated
that there were eight members of the Board who can vote for the
budget if they wish. To refuse to vote for the budget indicated lack
of faith in thir own judgment.
Supervisor O'Gara, thereupon, stated that he had heard the Chair
repeatedly urge the other members of the Board to vote for the budget.
He could not see why Supervisor Colman should urge that and at the
same time insist on voting against the budget himself. Any further
voting on motions for reductions of appropriations, or deletions, would,
he believed, be but a waste of time. The Chair has suggested that
instead of voting against the budget, we might explain our votes, and
then vote for the budget.
Supervisor Brown announced that he had made his statement con-
ceining the budget. However, he would vote lor the appropriation
ordinance.
Whereupon, Supervisor Shannon pointed out that Supervisors Brown
and Colman would be willing to vote to appropriate money for a budget
which they disapproved.
Supervisor Shannon also pointed out that appropriation items for
Civilian Defense, including bond interest, mean 2.5 cents in the tax
rate, which is directly due to the war. Except for Civilian Defense,
TUESDAY, MAY 26, 1942 1189
which probably no member of the Board would touch, the tax rate
would be 25 cents lower.
Supervisor Brown announced that he would explain his vote at the
proper time. However, in the matter of the appropriation ordinance
he would make a personal sacrifice so the machinery of the govern-
ment could go along.
RECESS
Thereupon, Supervisor Brown moved that the Board recess for ten
minutes. Motion seconded by Supervisors Green and Mead.
No objection, and so ordered.
Reconvening of Board
The Board of Supervisors reconvened pursuant to recess.
Discussion
Supervisor Colman, in further discussion of the budget, stated that
Supervisor Brown and he both felt they had a perfect right to vote
against the budget, but that after the budget shall have been passed,
they would vote for the appropriation ordinance. Supervisor Colman
then suggested that a motion to recess until 1:30 p.m. would be in
order.
Thereupon, Supervisor Gallagher moved that the Board recess until
1:30 p.m.
Supervisor MacPhee opposed the motion to recess.
The Clerk called attention to motion by Supervisor Uhl, to reduce
the budget of the City Planning Commission by $30,000. That motion
was still pending.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the motion to reduce the budget
of the City Planning Commission by $30,000 failed by the following
vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, O'Gara — 4.
Noes: Supervisors Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, Shannon, Uhl — 6.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Supervisor Uhl thereupon suggested that the appropriation for WPA
be cut $100,000; Mayor's appropriation (Emergency Reserve Fund) be
reduced by $50,000; Publicity and Advertising be reduced by $70,000;
Surveyors in Bureau of Engineering, $17,310 be eliminated; and then
from some other source sufficient amount could be eliminated or reduced
to make a total reduction in the budget of $350,000. He would go along
with some such changes.
Supervisor Mead, however, urged that before any motion for proposed
reductions be made, that a commitment be made by the two Supervisors
who were objecting to the budget that they would then go along with
the budget.
Supervisor Colman suggested that the Mayor's Emergency Reserve
Fund be not reduced, but that a reduction of $300,000 in the budget
be made.
RECESS
Thereupon, Supervisor MacPhee suggested that the Board recess for
fifteen minutes in order that the Finance Committee might give con-
sideration to and bring in recommendations based on Supervisor Uhl's
suggestion.
No objection, and so ordered.
Reconvening of Board
The Board of Supervisors reconvened pursuant to recess.
After the Board had reconvened. Supervisor Mead announced that
in order to pacify Supervisors Brown and Colman the Finance Commit-
tee had agreed to make certain recommendations which it had pre-
1190. TUESDAY, MAY 26, 1942
viously refused to make. The Finance Committee suggested a reduction
of $35,000 in the WPA appropriation. The committee was suggesting,
also, the elimination of the $17,310 for Surveyors in the Bureau of
Engineering.
Supervisor Gallagher suggested that the Board recess until 12 o'clock,
noon, and that in the meantime Supervisors Colman and Brown meet
together and return to the Board of Supervisors and show where cuts
in the budget can be made.
Supervisor Mead expressed agreement with Supervisor Gallagher's
suggestion, in part, but not to recess until noon. There was, he believed,
an obligation for Supervisors Brown and Colman to submit proposals
for reductions.
Supervisor Brown, in reply, pointed out that proposals for reductions
had been submitted, but had been voted down.
Supervisor O'Gara, thereupon, announced that he had in mind several
items for reduction or elimination. The items were: $35,000 off the
WPA item; $30,000 from the City Planning Commission; $107,000 for
Richmond Emergency Hospital; $17,310 for Surveyors; $20,000 from
Publicity and Advertising; $15,000 from Civilian Defense; $50,000 from
Mayor's Emergency Reserve Fund.
Supervisor Colman, in commenting on the foregoing suggestion,
stated that he felt the principal itein of objection was one that it is
too late to do anything about. That is the increase in salaries. How-
ever, in that matter, he and Supervisor Brown would become hopelessly
involved, and probably could not prevail. That would still be a reason
for voting against the budget, but, he now felt, it would be unreason-
able, under the present conditions, to do anything about it. That leaves
only the items mentioned by Supervisor O'Gara. However, Supervisor
Colman continued, he and Supervisor Brown did not consider them-
selves in any way responsible for items in the budget which they had
been opposing, and they did not believe they had blocked passage of
anything that six votes could pass. The reason these items have been
selected is that both the appropriations for surveyors and for the hos-
pital were made against the recommendations of the department heads.
The Publicity and Advertising Fund was suggested by the Finance
Committee, and lie. Supervisor Colman had supported that recommen-
dation, although that recommendation had not carried. The reduction
of $35,000 from the WPA item appears to leave a reasonable amount
there. These reductions are reasonable. However, had Supervisor
Brown's and his own votes prevailed, the budget might have been
reduced by several bundled thousand dollars more. Under the circum-
stances, if these reductions should be made, he would vote for the
budget. The suggested eliminations or reductions to which he and
Supervisor Brown are agreed, are: Publicity and Advertising Fund,
reduction of $20,000; Hospital, $107,000; Surveyors, $17,000; WPA fund,
$35,000; a total of $179,000.
Supervisor O'Gara, in commenting on the foregoing suggestions,
stated that there were two items in which there seems to be agree-
ment. Those are Publicity and Adveitising Fund and WPA reductions.
He would suggest a reduction of $30,000 from the City Planning Com-
mission budget rather than the $17,000 appropriation for the surveyors.
Supervisor Mead announced that he did not believe any reduction
should be made in the City Planning Commission budget until that
commission had been given the opportunity to show what it could do.
He was not prepared to go along with all the items recommended.
However, he would be willing to delete the $17,000 for surveyors pro-
vided it is stipulated that the Clerk be instructed to send a communica-
tion to the men affected, or to their organization, advising them just
exactly what brought the condition about.
Thereupon, Supervisor MacPhee announced that he would move that
the items in question be taken up seriatim.
TUESDAY, MAY 26, 1942 1191
Supervisor Mead, thereupon, requested that before the items were
considered that Supervisors Brown and Colman assure the Board tliat
if the deletions should be approved, they would agree to vote to adopt
the budget.
Supervisor Brown announced that he would vote "Aye" on the budget,
and would then have a statement to make.
Supervisor Colman had previously announced his intention to vote
"Aye."
Thereupon, Supervisor MacPhee moved that the appropriation for
WPA be reduced from $110,000 to $75,000, a reduction of $35,000.
No objection and so ordered.
Supervisor MacPhee moved that the item for Surveyors, Department
of Public Works, in amount of $17,310, be eliminated.
Supervisor Brown suggested that if there was to be a roll call on
the foregoing item, there should be a roll call on all items to be
considered.
Thereupon, Supervisor MacPhee, seconded by Supervisor Shannon,
moved that the Board reconsider its action whereby reduction of
$20,000 in the Publicity and Advertising Fund had been approved.
No objection, and action reconsidered.
Whereupon, Supervisor MacPhee moved that the appropriation for
Advertising and Publicity be reduced from $320,000 to $300,000, a reduc-
tion of $20,000.
Motion carried by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Colman, Gallagher, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara,
Shannon, Uhl — 8.
Noes: Supervisors Brown, Green — 2.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Supervisor MacPhee moved that the appropriation for WPA be
reduced from $110,000 to $75,000, a reduction of $35,000.
No objection, and so ordered.
Supervisor MacPhee, seconded by Supervisor Gallagher, moved that
the appropriation of $17,310 for Surveyors, Bureau of Engineering,
be eliminated.
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, MacPhee, Meyer,
O'Gara, Uhl— 7.
Noes: Supervisors Green, Mead, Shannon — 3.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Supervisor MacPhee announced that he had voted "Aye" under
protest.
Supervisor MacPhee, seconded by Supervisor Colman, moved that the
appropriation of $107,000 for the Richmond Emergency Hospital be
deleted.
Supervisor Shannon, in explanation of his vote, stated: This is a
hard pill to swallow. The people of the district have looked forward
to this hospital. He would vote "No."
Supervisor Green announced that he believed the hospital was an
absolute necessity, and he would vote against deletion of the item.
He did not believe any of these suggested deletions or reductions
should be approved.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the foregoing motion was carried
by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, MacPhee, Meyer,
O'Gara, Uhl— 7.
Noes: Supervisors Green, Mead, Shannon — 3.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
1192 TUESDAY, MAY 2G, 1942
Approval of Budget
Supervisor MacPhee, seconded by Supervisor Gallagher, moved
approval of the budget.
Explanation of Vote
Supervisor Brown, before answering to his name on roll call, ex-
plained his vote as follows: "As the Board knows, I have consistently
voted against salary items and against many of the budget increases,
having registered my vote, not only by that means but in the course
of subsequent debate. As I recognize the budget as the vehicle by
which the city's funds are made available, I will vote in favor of the
budget as finally amended."
Thereupon the roll was called and the budget was approved by the
following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead,
Meyer, O'Gara, Shannon, Uhl — 10.
Absent: Supervisor Roncovieri — 1.
Passage for Second Reading
Supervisor MacPhee, thereupon, moved that the Annual Appropria-
tion Ordinance be passed for second reading.
Before voting on the Annual Appropriation Ordinance, Supervisor
Mead was assured by the Controller that provision for payment of
overtime for per diem men was not included in the Annual Appro-
priation Ordinance. However, it would be in the Annual Salary Ordi-
nance.
Thereupon, the Annual Appropriation Ordinance was taken up and
passed for second reading by the following vote:
05

Whereas, It is generally recognized that in the event of the invasion
of the Pacific Coast, it is probable San Francisco will be among the
first cities to be attacked; and
Whereas, Due to its exposed position, our City is exceedingly vul-
nerable to such attack by enemy forces; and
Whereas, Although Civilian Defense has been adequately organized
to take care of non-combatant types of resistance to attack, no provision
has thus far been made to augment with local effort the combatant
forces which will be opposed to the enemy; and
Whereas, Large numbers of San Francisco citizens have been and
will be non-qualified through disability, age, or other basis for defer-
ment, to become members of the military forces of the United States;
and
( 1235 )
1236 MONDAY, JUNE 1, 1942
Whereas, Such non-qualified citizens are nonetheless capable of taking
part in home defense; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors does hereby heartily en-
dorse the creation of a Home Guard for San Francisco, said Home
Guard to be made up entirely of San Francisco residents and citizens,
who are not qualified for active service in the Armed Forces of the
United States; and said Guard to be employed solely in augmenting
the defense of the City of San Francisco in the event of invasion of
this immediate territory by enemy forces; and be it
Further Resolved, That the Mayor is requested to call a meeting of a
Citizens Committee for the purpose of organization of the San Fran-

automobile requisitioning are the measures which focus public con-
science upon this sad commentary and, history repeating itself, evoke
blatantly the cry: "A horse, a horse, my kingdom for a horse," as the
bleaters, sans the blush which even the most elastic conscience should
provoke, suddenly profess a heartfelt concern and undying friendship
for the Dobbin they had formerly relegated to desuetude and/or looked
upon with slight or slighting regard depending upon his position at the
finish line, and
Whereas, Cognizant of the sorry lot which has been that of the horse;
with a desire to provide for his safety and protection and in some small

recreational centers
(b) Contribute materially to the financial stability of the
community in which the summer resorts are located

Expressing Confidence in Mayor Rossi as a Patriotic, Loyal
and Conscientious Citizen of the United States
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor MacPhee presented Resolution No as follows:
Whereas, On many occasions this Board of Supervisors or its indi-
vidual members have disagreed with or disapproved of the administraf
tion of the municipal government by his Honor the Mayor and in all
probability this Board or its individual members when in its or their
opinion the expediency warrants, will continue to differ with the Mayor,
and
Whereas, Regardless of the honest differences of opinion which have
and undoubtedly will continue to exist between the Mayor and the
Board of Supervisors or its individual members there never has been
felt, by the meml)ers of the Board toward the Mayor, anything hut
profound respect for his integrity as well as for his loyalty to and'
abiding faith in the United States of America and its Institutions, and
Whereas, His Honor Angelo J. Rossi, Mayor of the City and County
of San Francisco has recently been the subject of much discussion and
controversy in connection with the question of his patriotism and
loyalty to the United States of America, and
Whereas, This unfortunate incident has received widespread pub-
licity, the inferences from which are adverse to the best interests of
the City and County of San rancisco and derogatory of his Honor
the Mayor, and
Whereas, It is the considered and unbiased opinion of this Board of
Supervisors that the hearing before the Interim Committee of the
State Legislature failed to disclose one scintilla of evidence to demon-
strate that Mayor Rossi is or has been anything but patriotic, loyal to,
and a good citizen of the United States of America, now, therefore,
be it
Resolved, That this Board of Supeivisors cognizant of the hysteria
and prejudices with which the human mind may be pervaded, particu-
larly in war times, takes this opportunity to express publicly and
without reservation its complete confidence in Mayor Angelo J. Rossi
as a patriotic, loyal and conscientious citizen of the United States of
America.

The above matter is presented by the Joint Finance and Public Util-
ities Committee with the recommendation that it be made a special
order of business for 3 : 30 P. M.
Committee of the Whole
Supervisor Shannon, seconded by Supervisor Mead, moved that the
Board resolve itself into a committee of the whole, the President of
the Board to act as Chairman.
No objection, and so ordei'ed.
Mr. E. G. Cahill, Manager of Utilities, explained the proposed Lease
Purchase Plan for the acquisition of the Market Street Railway Com-
pany's Operative Properties, reading to the Board communication from
Mr. Samuel Kahn, President of the Company, addressed to Mayor Angelo
J. Rossi, and informing that he would recommend to his Board of
Directors and Stockholders, an offer of $8,350,000 for the acquisition
of the Market Street Railway Company operative properties under a
lease-purchase plan.
Mr. Adolph Petry, representing Haight-Fillmore District Inc., opposed
the proposed lease-purchase plan.
Mr. Carroll Newburgh, President of Central Council of Civic Clubs,
ami Mr. E. Pfeffel, of the Market and Guerrero Streets Improvement
Club, requested postponement of at least two weeks, in order that their
respective clubs might study the proposed plan and be in a position to
make recommendations thereon.
In Hands of the Board
Thereupon, on motion by Supervisor Brown, the matter was taken
into the hands of the Board.
Committee of the Whole Arises and Reports
Supervisor Shannon moved that the Committee of the Whole arise
and report to the Board of Supervisors.
No objection, and so ordered.
During the discussion following, various reports were presented,
some of which were read, and were ordered printed for distribution to
interested citizens, and made part of the record.
Supervisor Brown, after announcing that it seemed clear that the
people of San Francisco had been inadequately advised as to the nature
of the Board's deliberations, and that no action should be taken without
giving them the opportunity to be heard, and he would, therefore, move
that action ])e postponed for one week, and be made a Special Order of
business for Monday, June 15, 1942, at 2:30 P. M.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Roncovieri.
Supervisor O'Gara, however, moved as an amendment to the motion,
that further consideration be postponed for two weeks, and be made a
Special Order of business for Monday, June 22, 1942, at 2:30 P. M.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Gallagher.
Supervisor Brown accepted the amendment to his motion.
Supervisor O'Gara. in discussing the motion for postponement stated
he did not question Mr. Cahill's views that the proposed lease-purchase
MONDAY, JUNE 8, 1942 1325
plan was the thing to be effected, but he desired the Clerk to notify all
civic organizations of the matter and to invite them to send represent-
atives to the Board to present their views on the matter. He also re-
quested that the Clerk obtain from the City Attorney, an opinion as to
just what authority Mr. Fred Meyer, Administrator of Local Transport
in San Francisco, has with respect to transportation in San Francisco.
Supervisor Roncovieri moved that during the two weeks period of
postponement, all the documents that have so far been presented on the
subject be printed, and made available to all interested civic organiza-
tions and citizens.
Supervisor Roncovieri, seconded by Supervisor Green, moved that
statements presented to the Board be submitted to the Controller, for
check by him as to the accuracy of the figures shown therein.
No objection, and so ordered.
Supervisor MacPhee announced that he had no particular opposition
to the consolidation of the Market Street and Municipal railways. He
believed, though, that the Mayor, the Public Utilities Commission and
the Manager of Utilities were sold on the idea that the plan proposed
was the right thing to do. Although he. Supervisor MacPhee, was not
at this time prepared to offer a different plan, he was not in agree-
ment with the proponents of the proposed plan, and he would suggest
that during the two weeks before the matter was again before the
Board, that the Public Utilities Commission give study to some other
plan.
In reply thereto, Mr. Cahill agreed that the fundamental thing is
that the two roads should be consolidated. The only difference is as
to the methods to arrive at the conclusion desired by both sides to
this controversy. He had done his best, and so had the Mayor, in
presenting a plan to the Board. If any one has a better plan, however,
the Board will receive the full cooperation of the Mayor, the Public
Utilities Commission, and of himself.
Thereupon, no objection being inade, further consideration of the
proposed lease-purchase plan was postponed until Monday, June 22, 1942,
at 2:30 P. M.
Following are statements heretofore presented in connection with
the foregoing discussion:

ments to the Company for its operative properties would aggregate
$8,350,000.00.
Upon advice from you, to be received during the current calendar

year, that the City has authorized the purchase of the said properties,
lor the amount mentioned above, I will recommend the offer to the

This letter will confirm the understanding reached with you, Mr.
Cahill and Mr. OToole at the City Hall on Monday, May ISth, 1942
in regard to the proposed lease and ultimate acquisition of the opera-
tive properties of the Market Street Railway Company by the City and
County of San Francisco.
I am prepared to recommend for the consideration of the Board of
Directors and the Stockholders of the Market Street Railway Company
and to the Trustee of the First Mortgage 5% bonds due April 1, 1945
of the Market Street Railway a proposal that the Company lease all
of its operative properties — a list of which is to be furnished — to the
City and County of San Francisco for a period of seven years be-
ginning January 1, 1942.
I shall not attempt to outline comprehensively hei'ein all of the
tt rms and conditions of the proposed lease since the provisions of
such a document must be necessarily worked out by our counsel in
conjunction with the City Attorney. Among other things, however, the
lease will provide that the City shall pay to the Company as rentals
during each year of the lease the amounts listed as follows:
1943 $ 2.000.000.00

Total $11,534,415.72
The rentals for each calendar year, mentioned above, will be paid
in twelve equal monthly installments on the first of each month.
Provision will be made whereby the City may anticipate rental pay-
ments if it should desire to do so.
AVe have estimated that from the aggregate amount of rentals
(he Company would be al)le to pay all interest on its bonds and other
interest ])earing obligations, as outstanding from time to time, and
amounting during the current year to $320,000.00; to pay its property
taxes to the City now amounting to $215,000.00 annually; to dispose of
iiijurv and damage claims and pay the legal costs incident thereto,
estimatid at .^750.000.00; to pay the l)alance of $729,000.00 (which will
lemaiii due on January 1. 1943) against purchase price of busses which
cost when new appro.ximatcly $1,250,000.00; to pay office exjienscs and
insurance cost of $70,000.00 annually and leave a balance of $6,871,000.00
to the Company for its corpoiate purposes. That balance, plus the
MONDAY. JUNE 8. 1942 1327
amounts for injury and damage claims and bus payments aggregates
$8,350,000.00 and represents the price for the properties to be leased.
The agreement would also provide that the City and the Company
would make a cash adjustment for any tax accruals at the date of
commencement of the lease and that an adjustment would be made in
the annual rental to compensate any change in the property taxes levied
by the City above or below $215,000.00 annually so that if taxes should
be increased the City would increase its rental payments accordingly
or if taxes should be lowered there would be a corresponding reduction
in the rental.
It would be provided further thdt at the termination of the lease
the Company would cause its operative properties to be transferred
to the City and County of San Francisco for the amount of $1.00.
ITpon advice from you, at any time during the remainder of the
calendar year, that the City has duly authorized you to proceed with
the carrying out of the transaction as generally outlined above, I shall
recommend the lease and purchase contract to the Board of Directors
and stockholders of the Company and to the Trustee of the First
Mortgage 5% Bonds of the Company for their approval.
The proposals herein contained will have to be approved and
sanctioned by all public authorities, commissions, boards and govern-
mental agencies having jurisdiction and validated by an adjudication
of the Supreme Court of the State of California.
I shall appreciate your advising me as to whether or not the fore-
going correctly outlines our understanding.
Very truly yours,

Results of Consolidation of Market Street Railway Company and
Municipal Railway under the Lease Purchase Plan
1. The Uuiversal Fan — At the present time approximately half the
people of San Francisco pay five cents for street car, cable car and
bus service, while the other half pays seven cents. This burden should
be equalized in order that no district should have advantage over
another.
2. The Universal Transfer — Inter-system transfers are now a rare
thing because of the conviction of the Market Street Railway Company
that exchange of transfers would result in revenue losses to them.
Under the lease-purchase plan with a universal fare, the practice of
giving universal transfers will be adopted immediately, thus enabling
riders to reach any part of the city without payment of an extra fare.
3. Equalization of Market Street Track Usage — Municipal Railway
Street cai's which use the outer system of tracks on Market Street arc
overburdening the available track space. Meanwhile, the inner tracks
used by Market Street Railway, are not used to their capacity. These
burdens should be equitably distributed and would be under the lease-
purchase plan.
4. Utilization of Equi^mient Not Now in Use — Municipal Railway
has in use at the peak hours of service every operating unit it owns.
These units are loaded to capacity and any appreciable addition to
their number would fail of their purpose for lack of track space on
lower Market Street. Meanwhile, Market Street Railway with surplus
operating space on its Market Street ti'acks and approximatt ly 50
idle usable street cars in the barn must withhold this track space and
equipment for lack of demand. Consolidation or unification Avould
pool l)oth equipment and demand, making it possible for Municipal
Railway to supplement its regulai- service by adding Market Street
Railway street cars not now in use to supply additional service badly
needed on .1, K, L, N, B, C, and F lines.
5. EIi))iiii(ition of Dnplirations — A unified mass ti'ansportation opei'a-
lion would i)ut an end to the competitive features of the systems as
now constituted and would iierniil of the abandonment of duplicating
lines. The equipment thus withdrawn fi'om service could be put back
into service in other parts of the City, thus not only aiding in the
war effort, liut incrc^asing the income fiom equipment which formerly
performed a competitive and duplicating service. There are several
such lints, l)ut a notable example is the bus operation on Sacramento
Street, which was put into effect as a substitute for a cable car
operation. Withdrawal of these buses for use in giving transport to
defense workers would work no injury to the genei-al i)ul)li<' for the
MONDAY. JUNE 8, 1942 1331
reason that adequate service would remain on the California Street
cable car system which completely duplicates the Sacramento Street
operation.
6. AUeriaiion of Primary lAne Croioding — Partly because of the
discrepancy in fares. Municipal Railway street cars and buses carry
loads far beyond rated capacity all during the peak hours. Mean-
while, Market Street Railway cari-ies less than capacity loads. The
equalization of fare, together with unification of opei'ations. would
permit us of idle Market Street Railway equipment on Municipal Rail-
way lines and the shift of patrons from overcrowded duplicating lines
to those lines which were not overcrowded. This would mean that
every Municipal Railway line, now inadequately served, would be given
more equipment to carry a load which would already have been sub-
stantially decreased by i-emoval of the fare differential.
7. Establishment of Neio Motorized Primary Routes — Congestion on
lower Market Street makes it impossible under any circumstances to
add new street car lines of a primary nature to the present systems,
either Municipal Railway or Market Street Railway, regardless of
availability of construction materials.
It is useless to add new feeder routes to these primary lines which
are already overloaded. What the City needs is new motorized Primary
routes which feed from residential districts into the downtown area
without traversing any part of the Market Street bottleneck.
The institution of such service by Municipal Railway has always
been impossible for the simple reason that no motorized primary line
can be operated at a profit on a 5-cent fare. Nor can it be operated on
a 6-cent fare. It can, however, be operated at a profit on a 7-cent fare.
A routs we have in mind is one that would split the Sunset District
somewhere between Taraval and Judah sti'eets. both of which are
served by Municipal Railway lines running east and west. Those who
live midway between these two streets and between 19th Avenue and
the beach are without transportation of any kind. A primary motor
coach route could bring transportation much nearer to the doors
of these people and under a 7-cent fare would pay its way. This is an
impossibility under a 5-cent fare.
This is but one of several lines which could be put into service
under unified operation on a universal fare with the universal transfer
privilege.
8. No Need to Tap Tax Funds— Under the lease-purchase plan, the
Market Street Railway operating properties can be acquired without
recourse to a bond issue or to a pledge of the credit of the tax-payers
of San Francisco.
9. Gradual Replacement of Obsolete Equipment — The Market Street
Railway Company has been unable to maintain a normal replacement '
program for a number of years and it will be necessary to make many
replacements, both of rolling stock and tracks, as soon as it is financially
possible and as soon as materials can be purchased. The lease-purchase
plan will make such a program financially possible.
10. iS])e(d in Making Traffic Jain. Corrections — No other program,
including a bond issue, would make possible the speed with which
corrective action can be taken under the lease-purchase plan.
Report of Public Utilities Commission as to Vsluation of Properties
of Market Street Railway Company
OFFICE OF MANAGER OF UTILITIES
The Honorable May 29. 1942.
Pul)lic Utilities Commission
City Hall,
San Francisco. California.
Centlemen:
In accordance with your request, a valuation has been made of the
Market Street Railway Company properties.
1332 MONDAY, JUNE 8, 1942
The values determined are the reproduction costs less accrued de-
preciation. Appraisals were made of those parts of the company
properties which would be used and useful if acquired by the City,
for operation in conjunction with the Municipal Railway, and which
were indicated in a condensed list furnished by the Market Street
Railway showing the properties they propose to transfer to the City.
No values have been included for intangible assets such as good will,
going concern, etc. No values have been included for unexpired fran-
chises or other permits to operate, although in fixing depreciation
consideration was given to the fact that the company operates in San
Francisco under a permit that expires in 1956. Deferred maintenance
has been considered in fixing the reproduction costs less depreciation.
The appraisal has been subdivided into accounts prescribed by the
Interstate Commerce Commission.
A detailed inventory and valuation of all Market Street Railway
Company properties was made under the direction of the late M. M.
O'Shaughnessy as of June 30, 1928. This valuation was used as a base
for the present study. The reproduction costs of the properties deter-
mined in the 1928 valuation were adjusted by adding expenditures
for additions and betterments and deducting allowances for retirements
to develop reproduction costs as of December 31, 1941. Further ad-
justments were made to bring these costs down to May 1. 1942. Field
surveys of the physical condition of the properties were made and the
reproduction costs were reduced by the amount of depreciation in-
dicated.
Attached are Exhibits Nos. A and B. showing a summary of the
valuation of the properties, a brief inventory and description of the
properties. Grouping the data shown in the exhibits, the valuation of
the properties of the Market Street Railway as of May 1, 1942, follows:
Production Cost
Description of Properties less Depreciation
Lands and rights of way $1,737,000
Trackage 3.762,000
Electrical transmission, distribution and overhead
systems 1,305,000
Buildings and shops, including equipment 627,000
Rolling stock (cars and buses) 2,087,000
Miscellaneous 189,000
$9,707,000
Materials and supplies 250,000
Total, all items $9,957,000
The valuation was made by the Engineering Bureau of the Public
Utilities Commission, under the direction of Mr. J. H. Turner, Manager
and Chief Engineer. The men assigned to the work are employees
of long standing, familiar with the phases of the work assingned to
them, and had previous knowledge of the problems involved. Mr. L. V.
Degnan, Civil Engineer, who had charge of the detailed 1928 valuation,
directed the work of the present study. Mr. J. H. Harwood, Construction
Engineer, made the inventory and tield valuation of trackage and re-
lated items; Mr. L. M. Perrin and Mr. F. L. Requa. Electrical En-
gineers, made the inventory and field valuation of the electrical systems,
shops, etc.; Mr. W. C. Bendel. Superintendent of Equipment and Over-
bead Lines of the Municipal Railway, made the inventory and valuation
of rolling stock and shop eciuipnient. Mr. William H. Scott. Manager
of the Municipal Railway, helped in the determination of the figures
and results.
I am indebted to Mr. Paul L. Beck. Chief Valuation E)ngineer with
the City Attorney's office, who reviewed the detailed procedure, made
personal investigations and conferred in all phases of the study. Mr.
MONDAY. JUNE 8. 1942

This is the total of the detailed appraisals applied to each of the parcels
shown in the above list.
504-511, 515, 516, Track and Appurtenayices — The track to be ac-
quired is shown in the following list, and is expressed in miles of single
track :
San Francisco San Mateo
County County Total
Electric Owned (Revenue) 182.966 28.292 211.258
Cable Owned (Revenue) 6.900 6.900
Electric Owned (Not Operated) 14.203 .306 14.509
Cable Owned (Not Operated) 4.519 4.519
Total 208.588 28.598 237.186
The total for reproduction cost less depreciation as indicated in the
attached Exhibit A, for track and appurtenances is $3,762,000. As indi-
cated in the accounts involved, this item covers all factors of track
construction including grading, ballast, ties, rails, fastenings, special
work, underground construction, paving, bridges, crossings, fences and
signs.
In fixing the condition per cent (depreciation factor) a small amount
was allowed for salvage for operative property, but no allowance was
made for salvage for non-opei'ative property. A remaining service life
of five years was adopted for the operating cable lines on the theory
that by the end of that time they would be superseded by some other
method of transportation.
512, h'odfhray Machineri/ and Tools — This account covers concrete
mixers, compressors, rail benders, asphalt kettles, etc., used in con-
nection with tiack and paving work. Reproduction cost less deprecia-
tion $22,000.
517, 518, Sir/nals and telephone lines — This account is a relatively
small one and an arbitrai-y condition per cent of 50% was adopted.
Reproduction cost less depreciation is $9,000.
519, Poles and Fixtures — The title of this account is self explana-
tory. Poles. i)arti(ularly steel poles, have a long life, but deprecia-

tion has been accelerated in this instance through lack of paint.
Reprodiu'tion cost less depreciation is $415,000.
520. Undergroioid Coucluitfi — The principal runs of underground con-
duit are on Market and Webster Streets. A considerable part of that
on Market Street and all of that on Webster Street has never been
used by the company and there being no prospective use for them,
they have been written off in this valuation. Those on Webster Street
however, are now used by the Pacific Gas and Electric Company for
IIKV lines serving the Railway. Reproduction cost less depreciation
is $44,000.
521, Distribution Si/ntem — This account includes feeder cables, trol-
ley wires and supporting wires, together with accessories and insula-
tors. Like the poles these properties have also not been well main-
tained. Reproduction cost less depreciation $625,000.
523. shoj)s and Car Houses — The properties to be acquired under
this account are as follows:

for the condition percent. Reproduction cost less depreciation $16,000.
543, Substation Equipment — The Market Street Railway operates
six substations with a combined machine capacity of 34,000 kilowatts.
A seventh substation, San Bruno Avenue, was dismantled and the
equipment sold during the early part of 1942, and accordingly is writ-
ten off in this valuation.
The Pacific Gas and Electric Company owns more than half of the
rectifying units in these stations, as indicated below:

The equipment owned by the Pacific Gas and Electric Company is
not included in the valuation.
The substation equipment is satisfactorily maintained, and under
existing conditions, should have more than normal life, which is re-
flected in the condition per cent established herein. Reproduction cost
less depreciation $176,000.
544, Transmission System — The Market Street Railway owns a
portion of the 11,000 volt circuits connecting the substations. This
portion is included herein. Reproduction cost less depreciation $36,000.
545, Franchises — This account covers actual amounts paid to a
State or to a political subdivision thereof, for franchises. The fran-
chises under which the company now operates ai'e the following:
San Francisco County: A 25-year operating permit acquired in accord-
ance with Amendment No. 35 of the old Charter (Sec. 131 of the
present charter). This permit expires on February 9, 1956.
San Mateo County: Various franchises, expiring in 1952.
Previous valuations have contained a small sum for this account; in
the present report it is eliminated entirely.
OVERHEAD ACCOUNTS— Items 501. Engineering: 546. Law Ex-
penses; 547, Interest; 548 Injuries and Damages; 549 Taxes, and 550.
Miscellaneous; are computed at the same ratio these items bear to the
road and equipment accounts in the 1928 valuation. In the present
instance they are distributed to the respective items of road and
equipment.
MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES— The company has stocks of materials
and supplies in its warehouses and shops and other locations. An item
MONDAY, JUNE 8. 1942 1337
to cover the cost of these materials and supplies has been added to the
valuation. The 1941 balance sheet of the company shows that they
had at the end of the year, materials and supplies costing approximately
1256,000; hence the estimate of $250,000.
Statement by Mi-. Frederick W. Meyer to the Joint Cominittee on
Finance and l*nblie Utilities of th«' IJoar<l of Supei'visors
Friday, June 5, 1943, at 2:00 P. M.
As Administrator of Local Transport in San Francisco, I am here
today to share with you some of the observations and facts that come
to my attention in relation to the proposed Lease-Acquisition of the
Market Street Railway by the City and County of San Francisco.
It seems to me that there are four fundamental phases to be con-
sidered in connection with this proposal:
1. Condition of the property to be leased and acquired.
2. Benefits to be derived.
3. Financial aspects.
4. Legal aspects.
Taking these points in order:
1. Condition of property —
The valuation made by the Engineering Bureau of the Public Utilities
Commission and concurred in by the Chief Valuation Engineer of the
City Attorney's office clearly shows the condition of the Market Street
Railway Company's properties as of May 1, 1942, in relation to the
reproduction cost less accrued depreciation, as 24 per cent, or $9,707,000,
compared to the reproduction cost of $39,791,000. In other words, in
the valuation study an allowance of 76 per cent has been made for
depreciation. It is, therefore, evident from a strictly engineering
study that approximately Y4, of the useful life of these properties Is
yet to be realized.
It is thus apparent at the start that while we know the properties
are a long way from being in ideal condition, yet they have a usefulness
which must be recognized. It is also appreciated that a certain portion
of the rolling stock of the Market Street Railway Company is known
to be obsolete, yet on the other hand, every piece of equipment capable
of being maintained in usable condition for the next few years has an
intrinsic value beyond any actual engineering appraised value.
I think it is safe to assume that in any extensive long range program
for consolidating and modernizing the mass transportation system in
San Francisco, it would be necessary to effect many changes on both
systems and acquire new rolling stock to replace obsolete equipment
of both the Market Street Railway and the Municipal Railway.
2. Benftts to be derived —
It should be recognized at the outset that the Market Street Railway
Company has certain operating rights and certain franchises which
have prevented the possibilities of unifying the street railway systems
in San Francisco. These franchises would perpetuate this company's
rights until 1956. On the other hand, it is obvious that the street
railway systems of San Francisco should be operated as a single unit
with a uniform fare and a universal transfer. This might be accom-
plished by the Muncipal Railway acquiring the Market Street Railway
or the Market Street Railway Company acquiring the Municipal Rail-
way. However, the former issue is the only one now under considera-
tion. It seems to me that the proposed Lease-Acquisition Plan offers a
very practical way to bring about a consolidated operation with uniform
fares and universal transfei-s which are so essential for the coordination
of the local transport facilities and which are necessary in any long
range program for improving the mass transportation facilities.
Combined rolling stock in actual use by both companies shows the
Market Street Railway double that of the Municipal Railway.
1338 MONDAY, JUNE 8, 1942
3. Financial aspects —
All the Lease-Acquisition rental payments during the life of the
proposed contract, and totaling $11,534,415.72, could he met, and in
addition, there would ])e provided a margin to apply to deferred main-
tenance, depreciation, and reconstruction, if we assume that the revenue
passengers carried by the Municipal Railway and Market Street Rail-
way during the next seven years were equal to those carried during the
past seven years, 1935-1941, and further assuming that a 7-cent fare and
increases be granted platform men under the joint operation plan.
Current operating conditions also indicate there would be little
question of the capacity of the consolidated systems to earn sufficient
revenues to me; i the obligations of the Lease-Acquisition Plan.
With the possibilities of nation-wide gasoline rationing some time
in July, it is reasonable to assume that the business of the mass
transportation systems will rise rapidly. Already, according to a report
just haudtd me, Municipal Railway passenger revenues in May show a
new monthly high of $386,319 or 12 per cent above May last year.
Cognizant that we are in an emergency period where conditions
are changing rapidly in favor of the mass transportation carriers and
revenues are mounting, many delays in putting the Lease-Acquisition
Plan into effect will reduce the financial benefits to be derived by the
City during the high revenue period.
Contrasting the possibilities held out by the present and immediate
future outlook, should peace be declared soon after the Lease-Acquisition
Contract has been signed and the street railway company were faced
with the competition from the automobile which existed during the
past two years, a 7-cent fare would not be sufficient to meet the full
payments stipulated in the plan. However, should this condition actu-
ally be faced, certain provisions are being considered to provide for
such a situation. On the other hand, there would be no reason to pre-
vent increasing the fare to provide the necessary payments. The
average street railway fare in the United States is now 8.3 cents and
an increase of one cent on the basis of 1941 revenue passenger experi-
ence would produce 1)4 millions dollars.
. 4. Legal aspects —
In a letter addressed to Mayor Rossi on May 21 from Mr. Kahn.
it W0S pointed out that the proposed contract would have to be approved
and sanctioned by all public authorities, commissions, boards, and
governmental agencies having jurisdiction, and validated by an adjudi-
cation of the Supreme Court of California. It would thus seem that
ample provision is made for determining the legality of the contract
on which there seems to be some difference of opinion at this time.
In summarizing, it appears to me that while the City is a partner
in the L^ase-Acquisition Plan, the contract in no way should jeopardize
the financial position of the City due to the fact that as a good business
proposition, it should l)e made to pay its way by charging sufficient
for the transportation offered.
StateiiM'iiJ of Supervi.sor Che-stcr K. .MaclMuM* Made in Joint
Finance and Pnblic Utilities Mcctinj;', >Jnne 5, 1942
The Mayor and Manager of Public Utilities have proposed a lease
purchase agitement under which the operative properties of the
Market Street Railway would be acquired by the City and County of
San Francisco over a seven year period for a base price of $8,350,000.00
and a total price of $11,534,415. As Chairman of the Finance Committee
of the Board of Supervisors, I have given close study to the problem
and wish to sul)mil my pi-eliminary views herein, together with a
series of questions, the answers to which will have a definite and direct
bearing on the final conclusions to be reached by me.
In the first place. I am in favor of a unified operation, particularly
because of the problems ci-eated ))y the war emergency. Hut, and I
emphasize these conditions. I am only in favor c.i unification if it can
MONDAY, JUNE 8. 1942 1339
be accomplished ex a lair price, on terms which are business-like and
if the interests and rights of the ridins public and the taxpayers are
recognized and protected.
The only justification, from the City's standpoint, for the lease
purchase plan in this instance is, I believe, purely theoretical. The
argument is made that if after a trial period, unified operation proves
unsatisfactory, or unprofitable, then the City would give back the
Market Sti-eet Railway properties and continue to operate the Muni-
cipal Railway. This is only theoretical justification, because the City
will l)e bound to continue its payment if a lease contract is signed —
l)ound to levy taxes to meet the payments, or issue bonds, if necessary,
in order to keep from forfeiting the millions which would then already
have been paid on account of the agreement.
This raises the question of the taxpayers being saddled with a
potential liability extending seven years into the future. Earnings
may or may not prove sufficient to operate the systems and pay off the
contractual amounts. If insuflicient, the taxpayers will be called upon
to make up the deficits, according to my undei'standing. Whether we
can legally enter into such a contract, even if we so desire, without a
popular vote is a questionable matter. I would like to know under what
express provisions of our charter such action could be taken.
To me, an attempt to pay off an eleven and one-half million dollar
obligation in seven years is ridiculous. What justification is there
for projecting earnings for seven years based on travel in the first
four months of this year? If these payments were made over a 15 to 20
year period, funds would be made available out of revenues for necessary
repairs, street work, rehabilitation, a possible reduction in the pro-
posed 7-cent fare and new equipment. After the war, men will need jobs
and San Francisco should be in a position to undertake this much needed
work without recourse to the taxpayers. This could be done out of
earnings if the projected figures are achieved under the proposed plan,
but if they fall short, then funds will not be available. Also, while
a 7-cent fare might be desirable at the outset, the possibilities of a
reduction to G cents would be remote under the heavy payments called
for in the 7-year plan. I am not sold on a 7-cent fare if any way can
be found to give adequate service and charge less.
In addition to the universal transfer and the discontinuance of
duplicating lines, I am not satisfied there has been a suflficient break-
down of the proposed benefits that will accrue to the^ riders of the cars
as a result of the contemplated increased fare.
What is the justification for entering into a lease under which the
City may find itself owing and operating a system greatly in need of
repairs and rehabilitation, with insufficient funds to be used for these
purposes? This might well eventuate if earnings are not up to the
estimates.
Assuming the City acquires the Market Street Railway, what arrange-
ments are to be made by the City to repair the roadbeds of the Market
Street Railway which daily are causing the motorists of San Francisco
undue hazards on already thin tire treads?
Has the $2,000,000.00 delinquent street repair program of the Market
Street Railway been considered as a liability of the Market Street
Railway in arriving at the valuation as set up by the Public Utilities
Commission?
What will be the Civil Service status of the employees of the
Market Street Railway under the lease-purchase agreement? Do they be-
come City employees and if so, in event the Market Street Railway prop-
erties are taken back in event of failure of the City to go through
with the purchase, what status would the employees then have?
I am reliably informed that a general obligation, 1 to 7 year serial
bond issue of the City and County of San Francisco, could be sold
today at an interest rate not to exceed 1]4%- Why, then, in comparing
the costs of a bond issue with the costs under the lease-purchase plan,
1340 MONDAY. JUNE 8, 1942
does the Public Utilities Commission assume an interest rate of 4%?
This discrepancy creates an error of almost $600,000 in their conclusion.
Under the proposed plan, the following payments would be made by
the City:
1943 $2,000,000.00
1944 2,000,000.00
1945 1,520.000.00
1946 1.520.000.00
1947 1.520.000.00
1948 1,520,000.00
1949 1.454.415.72
A debt of $8,350,000 due over a priod of seven years and bearing
1^4% interest could be serviced Avith an annual payment of $1,253,000.
Inasmuch as the City would not receive the $215,000 per annum from
the Market Street Railway if it bought out the company with the
proceeds of a bond issue, it is fair to add the $215,000 each year as a
cost to the City. Therefore, the following is a comparison of the cost
under the lease-purchase arrangement and under a seven year serial
bond issue:
Lease Purchase Serial Bond
1943 $2,000,000 $1,468,000
1944 2.000.000 1.468,000
1945 1.520.000 1,468,000
1946 1,520,000 1,468,000
1947 1,520,000 1,468,000
1948 1,520,000 1,468,000
1949 1,454,415 1,468,000
$11,534,415 $10,276,000
Thus, it will be seen that a saving of $1,258,415 could be made by a
bond issue.
A substantial reduction may be effected in the base lease price of
$8,350,000 by reason of an out-and-out cash purchase and such saving,
together with the above $1,258,415 may well result in a saving of over
$2,500,000 which could bring about a possible lower fare for the
car rider, and more protection for the taxpayer.
From a business standpoint, I believe it inadvisable to pay in
monthly installments $11,534,415 over a seven year period for some-
thing claimed to be worth $8,350,000. After making allowance for
taxes which would be returned to the City, this is the equivalent of
paying 5.9% interest. A twenty year 3%% bond issue would cost a
total of $11,740,000 and the average annual payments would have to be
but $587,000 against $1,647,000 under the lease-purchase plan. Thus,
a margin of over $1,000,000 a year could be made available for repairs,
rehabilitation, new equipment, greater protection for the taxpayer and
a possible 6-cent fare. Why, then, obligate ourselves to pay off in seven
years when we could have the use of the money for twenty years at
approximately the same cost?
The Chamber of Commerc-e Streets and Highways Committee has
concluded that if the City had purchased the Market Street Railway
seven yeais ago and operated the coml)ined system on a seven-cent fare,
the following results would have been achieved:
1. The Market Street Railway purchase price would have
been paid out of revenues.
2. A surplus of nearly $6,500,000 would have been rolled up.
This is designed to show what can be expected in the next seven years
if the City buys the Market Street Railway for $11,534,415 under the
lease-purchase method. The fallacy of such an argument is — in the last
seven years the number of persons liding street cars has been de-
clining. The seven year average number of full fare-paying passengers
carried per annum by both lines is 178,673,000 whereas 1941 totaled
MONDAY, JUNE 8, 1942 1341
only 160,489,000 or less than 90% of this average. It is a mistake,
therefore, to assume that the previous sev^n years is a proper measure
of the revenue to be received in the next seven, despite some temporary
boom that may occur as a result of the rubber shortage.
As a matter of fact, if the 7 years gross revenue figure cited by
the Chamber of Commerce report were reduced 10% to reflect 1941
results, a decrease of over $9,000,000 would more than offset the
$6,500,000 surplus which the Chamber had calculated. Some adjustment
would have to be made, of course, for reduction in operating costs
but not in proportion to the revenue decline.
It should be considered further, that the major portion of the assets
of the Market Street Railway is seven years older than it was seven
years ago. A base price of $8,350,000 is, therefore, not nearly so at-
tractive now as it would have been at the time the Chamber assumed
the purchase to have been made.
H<»[)ly to Supervisor MacPhee's Statement by E. G. Cahill
before Joint Finance and Public Utilities Committee of
the Hoard of Supervisors, Friday, June 5, 1943
It is apparent at the outset that there is no fundamental disagree-
ment as to the purpose of or the need for what we have in mind.
Supervisor MacPhee states that he is in favor of unified operation
if three conditions are fulfilled, namely:
1. That the price is fair;
2. That the terms are business-like, and
3. That the interests and rights of the riding public and the
taxpayers are recognized and protected.
The only disagreements possible then are confined to interpretations
of fairness of the price and the method and terms of acquisition. If
these are fair, the taxpayers and riding public will be fully protected.
After all, it is in their interests that unification is proposed.
Mr. MacPhee opposes a lease-purchase plan on the grounds that it
will necessitate a 7-cent fare, that it will involve a lien on the credit
of the taxpayers and that it will require payment of a higher rate of
interest on the base price than would be necessary by bond issue.
Since Mr. MacPhee has proposed no other alternative, we must con-
clude on the basis of his approval of unification in principle that he
prefers a bond issue.
I wish to make it plain that a 7-cent fare and a lien on the credit of
the taxpayers is necessary regardless of the method we finally reach
for acquisition of Market Street Railway properties. The difference
lies in two facts, namely: that the lease-purchase proposal will greatly
hasten the date of acquisition and that it will permit of gradual acquisi-
tion of the properties without cost to the taxpayers with the use of
funds we cannot now spend for new equipment because of priorities.
I see no point in borrowing money until we need it. If conditions
change so greatly that revenues will not meet lease-purchase obliga-
tions, then will be the time to borrow money.
In the final analysis, proponents of a bond issue, base their whole
reasoning upon interest costs under the several proposals. All other
matters such as the rate structure, the possibilities of purchase of
new equipment and the amount of service to be given are in part
conditioned by this asserted difference in interest charges.
As a matter of fact, there is nothing more than this to discuss, except
as these differences in interest charges will affect operations and the
interests of the public.
Supervisor MacPhee states that an attempt to pay off the cost of
Market Street Railway Company acquisition in seven years is "ridicu-
lous." As a cure for this situation, he proposes that we pay interest
at the rate of ly_^ per cent on 1 to 7 year serial bonds or ^Vz per cent
on 20-year bonds. Mr. MacPhee takes us to task for assuming an
1342 MONDAY, JUNE 8, 1942
interest rate of 3 per cent in comparing the cost of a bond issue with
the costs under the lease-purchase plan.
We, in turn can take Mi'. MacPhee to task for assuming eitho- a 1^4
per cent rate or a. ZV2 per cent rate but there is no point in that.
I think it would be more to the point to accept as proper the rates
of interest that are now being paid on both short-term and long-term
general obligation bonds.
The interest rates for short-term bonds range from 1.80 per cent
at the lowest to 2.90 per cent at the highest on the basis of yesterday's
bond offerings by the Bank of America.
The interest rates on long-term bonds, according to information
received from the Controller's office today range from 2.35 per cent
to 3 per cent.
These would be general obligation bonds, and they would require
a two-thirds majority vote. It would take months to prepare for an
election for passage of these bonds and there is grave doubt that
they could be passed.
The time to act is now and if at some time in the future we want
to resort to bond funds, it can be done without any penalty.
Let us analyse Supervisor MacPhee's statement as to the costs for
interest under the lease-purchase plan.
He says, and I quote:
"After making allowance for taxes which would be returned to the
City, this is the equivalent of paying 5.9 per cent interest."
An error of some $1,505,000 has crept into the Supervisor's figures.
The total purchase price, including interest and all carrying charges
under the lease-purchase plan is $11,534,000. Subtract from this the
base purchase price of $8,350,000 and there remains $3,184,000.
If Supervisor MacPhee had actually made allowance for taxes as
his statement said he did, he would have subtracted $1,505,000 from
this remainder and the sum left would have been $1,679,000. This,
divided into seven installments, would amount to $239,857 per year,
which is at the rate of 2.87 per cent without any long-term lien on
the taxpayers, the riders or anybody else.
If, in turn, we choose to pay 3^2 per cent on $8,350,000 for 20 years
as has been suggested by Supervisor MacPhee, the total interest charge
would be $3,068,625 as compared to $1,679,000 under the lease-purchase
plan. Of course. Supervisor MacPhee stated the interest charge under
the 20-year bond plan would amount to $3,390,000, but here too he has
allowed an error to creep in. The error on this occasion was to his
own disadvantage and not to ours, but I am happy to agree to a
correction.
Now as to fairness of purchase price. You can't go far wrong after
having failed to agree on appraised value as made by both buyer and
seller in taking assessed valuation as the basis of the true value.
The Board of Equalization, which assesses properties of this kind at 50
per cent of going value, taxes the Market Street Railway Company on an
assessed value of $4,802,600. P'ull value on this basis would be $9,605,200,
which is one and a quarter million dollars more than the l)ase pur-
chase price of $8,350,000 under the lease-purchase plan.-
I doubt if any person or firm operating a going concein at a profit,
as the Market Strett Railway Company is now doing, would be willing
to sell for much less than the value as fixed by a taxing agency and I
don't think anybody would be reasonable to expect to buy for much
less. In this case, we have been given the benefit of the doubt to the
extent of one and a quarter million dollars.
Time is of the essence in this situation. We cannot afford to wait the
six months or more issuance of bonds would require. If we do, we will
have sacrificed the $250,000 per month which can be earned under
unified operation and we vvill have sacrificed the immediate possi-
MONDAY. JUNE 8, 1942 1343
bilities for improvement in service. In other words, in only six months
we would have lost a million and a half dollars which might have
been ours with little risk.
Meanwhile, we have as insurance the possibilities of calling tor a
bond issue if and when we need it and if we need it six months hence,
it will be for a sum of one and a half million dollars smaller than is
now necessary. And so long as the war lasts and rubber remains
scarce, we can continue to pay off under our running option.
It is costing us more than $8,000 every day we delay in an effort to
reduce an interest rate of 2.87 per cent under the lease-purchase plan
to some lesser rate under a bond issue which might never pass.
We can't afford it.
Statement of Supervisor >IaePhee in Board of Supervisor.s
Monday, June 8, 1943
The Board of Supervisors is considering as special order of business
the proposed lease-purchase plan of the operative properties of the
Market Street Railway by the City and County of San Francisco. The
plan already has the approval of the Mayor and the Utilities Com-
mission and we, as elected representatives of the people of San Fran-
cisco, are asked to assent so that the deal can be closed.
In Mr. Cahill's statement before the Joint Finance and Utilities
Committee on Friday, June 5th, he says. "I wish to make it plain that
a 7-cent fare and a lien on the credit of the taxpayers is necessary re-
gardless of the method we finally reach for acquisition of Market
Street Railway properties." A few minutes later Mr. O'Toole stated
that the lease purchase plan could not legally place a lien on the
credit of the taxpayers. These conflicting statements were made in
answer to the following question which I submitted as being all-
important to arriving at an intelligent decision in the matter. "This
raises the question of the taxpayers being saddled with a potential
liability extending seven years into the future. Earnings maj^ or may
not prove sufficient to operate the systems and pay off the contractual
amounts. If insufficient, the taxpayers will be called upon to make
up the deficits, according to my understanding. Whether we can legally
enter into such a contract even if we do desire, without a popular vote
is a questionable matter. I would like to know under what express
provisions of our charter such action could be taken."
The answer given by Mr. O'Toole is that we cannot legally enter into
such a contract without a vote of the people. He did say that if the
payments to Market Street Railway were to be made solely out of
revenues of the system, then it would be legal. But Mr. Cahill states
that regardless of the method used a lien on the credit of the taxpayers
is necessary. Therefore, before we can consider a plan of acquisition,
let's have a clear-cut statement of how such acquisition is to be ac-
complished, with the Mayor, Utilities Commission and City Attorney
all in agreement as to method and legality.
The people of San Francisco are disgusted with the sloppy manner
in which certain of our officials conduct the City's affairs. There is
absolutely no excuse for a business proposition not being handled by
the City just as a capalile business man would handle it. Before any
deals are entered into, it is necessary to have the facts. Here we are
discussing a deal involving millions of dollars but my investigation
and study lead me to the conclusion that the case presented by the
Mayor and the Utilities Commission is inaccurate. I, for one, refuse
to be a party to any acquisition plan until the statements made have
been checked for accuracy and their veracity established.
On Friday I presented a statement, together with a series of ques-
tions, remarking that the answers to these questions would have a
definite and direct bearing on the final conclusions to be reached by
me. I wish to have that statement read at this time and then go on to
a shocking and inexcusable illustration of inefficiency.
(See statement of Supervisor MacPhee, pages 14 to 17 inclusive.)
1344 MONDAY. JUNE 8, 1942
The foregoing statement was submitted a day in advance to tlie
Mayor and tlie Utilities Manager so tliat their answers could be pre-
sented at the joint meeting. Mr. Cahill's reply, consisting of about 25
paragraphs, contains fallacies as well as absolutely incorrect figures
and interest rates.
Before we go a step further, I wish to point out some of these inac-
curacies and misstatements. This Board of Supervisors cannot expect
nor justify the confidence of the people of San Francisco unless it ob-
tains a few, simple essential and easily available facts before proceeding.
The Public Utilities Commission in attempting to show that the lease
purchase plan is preferable to a bond issue made a comparison of costs.
For a seven year bond issue they assume an interest rate of 3%. The
correct rate at this time is no more than li4%. This creates an error
of almost $600,000 to start with. Mr. Cahill in attempting to justify
his position took me to task for my 1^/4% interest rate saying that
1.80% was the lowest interest rate on the basis of last week's bond
offering sheet of the Bank of America. That is like examining a Penn-
sylvania Railroad time table to find out what time a Southern Pacific
train leaves for Palo Alto. The 1.80% yield on the Bank of America
offering was on some City and County of San Francisco 5% sewer bonds
due in 1950, which were authorized back in 1908. We are talking about
1 to 7 year serial bonds and I have checked with half a dozen bond
houses in determining that 1^4% is the correct rate.
In this same computation the statement is made that under an out-
right purchase the General Fund of the City will fail to receive
$1,505,000 from taxes which are now paid at the rate of $215,000 an-
nually by the Market Street Railway, but that under the lease purchase
arrangement the City would pay the Market Street Railway these
amounts out of earnings of the system and then the Market Street
Railway would pay them back to the City in the form of taxes. What
kind of Amos and Andy figuring is that? If the system earns the money
it can just as well pay it directly into the General Fund as turn it over
to the Market Street Railway for them to pay into the General Fund.
It is purely a matter of agreement.
I claim in my statement that after making allowance for taxes, if
the base price of $8,350,000 is paid in accordance with the proposed
schedule, it will be the equivalent of paying 5.9% interest. Mr. Cahill
answers by saying that the rate would be only 2.87% and that I have
made an error of some $1,505,000. He may be a good engineer, but he
doesn't evidence any knowledge of arithmetic. He is absolutely wrong.
I have had my figures checked by an Actuary, Mr. Ralph Nelson,
Secretary of the San Francisco Employees' Retirement System and
submit his findings herewith.
liOttor of Halpl) H. NeLson, Socretary-Actiiar.v of the
Itotireiiient Hoard
June 8, 1942.
Supervisor Chester R. MacPhee,
City Hall.
Dear Supervisor MacPhee:
In accordance with your request, I have checked certain interest rates
and installments, given in a statement before the Joint Finance and
Public Utilities Committees of the Board of Supervisors, on June 5. 1942.
Without attempting to state in detail the agreements involved, I have
considered the following items:
]. What is the equivalent interest rate under a proposed lease
of the Market Street Railway, providing for the payment
of a base price of $8,350,000, and the payment of interest,
office expenses and insurance totaling $1,679,415? Taxes are
eliminated in the consideration of this question, because in
effect, the City, according to my understanding, would pay
the Market Street Railway an amount equal to the taxes
MONDAY. JUNE 8. 1942 1345
required of that Company, and the Company in turn would
pay the amount back to the City in liquidation of its tax
liability. Assuming that an installment of $1,785,000 per year
would be paid by the City for the first two years; $1,305,000
per year for the next four years, and $1,239,415 for the last
year, and assuming further that these annual amounts would
be paid in monthly installments, the $1,679,415 in excess of
the principal sum, would be equivalent to interest at 5.8%
per annum, compounded monthly.
2. At the top of the third page in the copy of the statement pre-
sented at the Committee meeting, a statement is made that
the equivalent interest rate would be 2.87%. This percentage
is based on the assumption that the outstanding principal
would be $8,350,000 throughout the seven-year period. As
a matter of fact, the principal is reduced by the installments
recited in Item 1 preceding. If the reduction was spread
evenly over the seven-year period, so as to make the average
principal outstanding equal to one-half the $8,350,000, the
equivalent interest rate would be twice 2.87%, or 5.74%.
The correct rate is higher than this, because the installments
are larger at the beginning of the period.
3. In the second paragraph on the third page of the statement,
two amounts are quoted as the total interest under a bond
issue for $8,350,000, for a period of twenty years with a
coupon rate of 2V2%. the amounts quoted being $3,068,625
and $3,390,000. Each of these amounts is correct, on the
basis of the assumptions made in its calculation. In the
first amount quoted, it was assumed that payment on princi-
pal would be equal each year "throughout the twenty years
and that interest in decreasing amounts on the outstanding
principal from year to year, would be paid in addition to
the equal principal installments. In the second amount,
that is $3,390,000, it was assumed that equal aggregate in-
stallments would be paid each year for twenty years, each
installment being applied first to pay interest for the period
referred to, and the balance applied on the principal.
I shall be glad to make any further explanation you may desire.
Yours truly
RRN:HW RALPH R. NELSON
Secretary-Actuary.
With reference to price, Mr. Cahill states, "You can't go far wrong
after having failed to agree on appraised value as made by both buyer
and seller in taking assessed valuation as the basis of the true value."
We can readily understand the valuation as set on their own proper-
ties by the Market Street Railway.
j By his own admission, Mr. Cahill states his appraisal does not take
into consideration all of the liabilities of the Market Street Railway
including a $2,000,000 street repair liability alone, which will have to
be assumed by the people of San Francisco if this plan is approved.
I submit no appraisal is complete unless all assets and all liabilities
are included.
Assessment by the Board of Equalization cannot be construed as
50% of going value as is indicated by Mr. Cahill. It is only too well
known that in many instances property values both real and personal
are over-assessed as to valuation — witness the many property owners
in this city today who would be only too willing to sell their property
for the assessed valuation.
Mr. Cahill in his statement says there is grave doubt the voters would
approve an election to purchase the Market Street Railway. I, too, do not
believe the people will vote $11,534,415 — to purchase this aged and
decrepit railway system. However, if the purchase price and terms
1346 MONDAY, JUNE 8, 1942
were such that the people of San Francisco could be convinced they
were receiving an outstanding bargain, then they might be willing to
support the move.
~To date, I have not been convinced that the overall price of $11,534,415
and the lease-purchase plan is the best program.
In view of the definite savings of $1,258,415 as set forth in my
previous statement plus a savings of an undetermined amount which
could result from paying cash instead of lease purchase, any school
boy could be convinced that any and all of these things are entirely
possible:
1. We would pay a less overall price and thereby establish less
of a liability for the taxpayers.
2. We would pay less per year for the same period of time.
3. We would build up a larger surplus to take care of additions
and betteiments to the already dilapidated Market Street
Railway properties.
4. Considerable of this money saved could be used to take care
of some of the $2,000,000 street repair program of the Market
Street Railway.
5. Consideration could be given to a fare of less than 7c.
In closing, Mr. Cahill says it is costing us $8,000 every day we delay.
As this $8,000 would come from increased fares from the people of
San Francisco whom we represent here today, I submit it will be well
to proceed with care to the end that we will not have cause to look
back with regret on any hurried action we may take.

Postponement
The following from Streets Committee without recommendation, was
taken up:
Reducing Sidewalk Widths on Post Street Between Taylor and
Powell Streets
(Series of 1939)
Bill No. 1716, Ordinance No as follows:
Amending Ordinance No. 1061, entitled, "Regulating the Width of
Sidewalks," approved December 18, 1903, by amending section 837
thereof.
Be it ordained by the People of the City and County of San Fran-
cisco, as follows:
Section 1: Ordinance No. 1061, entitled: "Regulating the Width of
Sidewalks," approved December 18, 1903, be and is hereby amended in
accordance with the communication of the Director of Public Works,
filed in this office December 22, 1941, by amending Section 837 thereof
to read as follows:
Section 837. The width of sidewalks on Post Street, between Market
and Stockton Streets, shall be 15 feet.
The width of sidewalks on Post Street, the northerly side of. be-
tween Stockton and Powell Streets, shall be 15 feet.
The width of sidewalks on Post Street, the southerly side of, between
Stockton and Powell Streets, shall be abolished.
The width of sidewalks on Post Street, the northerly side of, between
Powell and Mason Streets, shall be 10 feet.
The width of sidewalks on Post Street, the southerly side of, between

The width of sidetvalks on Post Street, between Mason and Taylor
Streets, shall be 10 feet.
The width of sidewalks on Post Street, between Taylor Street and
Van Ness Avenue, shall be 10 feet.
Approved as to form by the City Attorney.
Postponement
Supervisor Mead announced that inasmuch as new developments
have occurred, in connection with the proposal to widen Post Street,
he would move re-reference of the foregoing Bill to the Streets Com-
mittee.
Motion seconded by Supervisor Brown.
Supervisor Uhl, as an amendment to the motion, moved postpone-
ment of further consideration for six months.
Seconded by Supervisor Meyer.
Mr. Sylvester McAtee, attorney, representing interested property
owners and merchants in the district affected by the proposed street
widening, opposed postponement. The issue should be decided without
delay.
Mr. Arthur Brouillet favored postponement. Reference to committee
would bring no further facts to light. If the matter is postponed for
six months, there will be an opportunity to observe the situation, the
effects of the opening of the Union Scjuare Garage, and the result upon
congestion of reduced traffic due to reduction in operation of private
motor vehicles.
Supervisor O'Gara favored the motion for postponement. If an im-
mediate vote should be insisted on, he would vote "Aye" on the Bill to
reduce the sidewalk widtlis. thus widening the street. As to the sug-
gested shoitage of materials to complete the street widening project,
he noted that on other such projects there did not seem to be such
shortage.
Supervisor Green announced that he had previously voted "No" on
MONDAY. JUNE 8. 1942 1359
the proposed street widening, and he would so vote again, for the follow-
ing reasons:
1. The Board would be doing an idle act in passing the Bill, inas-
much as materials for the completion of the project could not be ob-
tained until after the war;
2. The City Planning Commission does not recommend the widening;
3. Because of need for conservation of rubber, there will be less
traffic on Post Street, and hence less need for widening the street.
Supervisor Roncovieri expressed himself as being in favor of post-
ponement. There are several unknown factors which should ultimately
influence the Board in making its decision. He believed the Board
should know the effect of "No Parking on Post Street," "One Way
Traffic," and the opening of the Union Square garage.
Thereupon, the roll was called and the motion to postpone further
consideration for six months was carried by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead,
Meyer, O'Gara, Roncovieri, Shannon, Uhl — 11.

Approval of Supplemental Recommendation, Public Welfare De-
partment, for May, 1942
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No. 2676, as follows:
Resolved, That the recommendation of the Public Welfare Depart-
ment, containing the name and amount to be paid as Old Age Security
Aid increase for the month of May, 1942, is hereby approved and the
1360 MONDAY, JUNE 8, 1942
Clerk of the Boaid of Supervisors is directed to transmit this approval
to the Controller.
Discussion
Supervisor Uhl, before the roll was called on adoption of the fore-
going resolution, called attention to the case of a Mr. Charles Green.
•who has been granted Old Age assistance, beginning June 1, 1942, Mr.
Green receives only $34.50 per month, the monthly premium on his life
insurance, paid by his son, being deducted from the amount he would
otherwise have received. This man receives no benefit from his in-
surance, but is penalized $5.50 per month. The Public Welfare Depart-
ment has explained the situation, saying that if Mr. Green can save
that amount and pay his own insurance premium, there will be no
deduction. In conclusion. Supervisor Uhl suggested that the Public
Welfare Commission notify pensioners of the situation, where deduc-
tions are made from amounts they would otherwise be entitled to re-
ceive.
Thereupon, the President referred the matter to the Public Welfare
Committee.
Whereupon, the foregoing resolution was
Adopted l)y the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead.
Meyer, O'Gara, Roncovieri, Shannon, Uhl — 11.
Approval of Supplemental Recommendations, Public Welfare

Blind and Aid to Needy Children, including increases, decreases,

Further Resolved, That the Public Welfare Department recommenda-
tions for care of Needy Aged Persons in County Hospital, as provided
under Section 2160.7, Welfare and Institutions Code, State of Cali-
fornia, effective as noted, are hereby approved;
Further Resolved, That the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors is
directed to transmit the foregoing approvals to the Controller.
Adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead,
Meyer, O'Gaia, Roncovieri, Shannon, Uhl — 11.
Authorizing Board of Supervisors to Become a Member of the
National Association of County Supervisors
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No. 2678, as follows:
Wheieas. It will be in the interest and for the benefit of the City and
County of San Francisco that the Board of Supervisors become a mem-
ber of the National Association of County Supervisors: Now, therefore,
be it
Resolved, That the Board of Supervisors of the City and County of
San Francisco be and is hereby authorized to become a member of the
National Association of County Supervisors, and, be it
Further Resolved. That the Board of Supervisors, its committees or
membtrs be and they are hereby authorized to attend the meetings
of said Association and that the expense incurred thereby shall be paid
fi-om such funds as may be available for such purpose.
Discussion
Supervisor Uhl objected to the adoption of the foregoing resolution
MONDAY. JUNE 8. 1942 1361
stating that he l)elieved it would be letting down the bars to future
"junket" trips east to Supervisors' national meetings. He doubted the
value of membership in such an organization, and in support of his
views cited he had attended in Sacramento, where, after lunch, all
representatives who were in attendance were invited to attend the
races.
In reply to questioning by Supervisor Mead, Supervisor Uhl denied
having attended the races himself, on that day in question.
Whereupon. Supervisor Mead declared that it must have been Super-
visor Uhl's twin brother, sitting only three rows ahead of him.
Again Supervisor Uhl denied having attended the races, and declared
that any statement to the contrary was not true.
Supervisor Mead requested that the foregoing remarks be entered in
the Journal of Proceedings.
Supervisor Green disagreed with the views expressed by Supervisor
Uhl. He believed a great deal of substantial benefit was received by
the City and County of San Francisco, in addition to the good will
created. San Francisco, he stated, is the only major city that does
not belong to this organization. The membership fee of ,f2.00 per mem-
ber is insignificant compared to the benefits to be derived, and if the
Board does not desire to join the Association, he would join, himself,
at his own expense.
Supervisor Shannon objected to the statement by Supervisor Uhl,
and related benefits received in the past by membership in various as-
sociations. He believed that all departments of the city government
that hold membership in national organizations, benefit greatly by con-
tacts made at the meetings of the various organizations!
Supervisor Uhl, in reply, stated that he had voted to send Supervisors
MacPhee and Green to Washington in connection with disposal of
Hetch Hetchy generated electricity, and he knew that trip was most
successful. When another important thing comes up which requires
representation, he would vote in favor of such representation. How-
ever, he would not vote for any such blanket representation as is now
being proposed.
Thereupon. Supervisor Gallagher, at the suggestion of the President,
moved that the resolution be amended by deleting, in the last "Resolve,"
the words "its committees or members be and they are hereby author-
ized" and insert in lieu thereof the words "designate such members
as it sees fit."
Motion seconded by Supervisor Green.
Motion carried by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead,
Meyer, O'Gara, Roncovieri, Shannon — 10.
No: Supervisor Uhl — 1.
Election of Daniel F. Del Carlo as Director of the Golden Gate
Bridge and Highway District
(Series of 1939)
Resolution No. 2679, as follows:
Resolved. That the Board of Supervisors of the City and County of
San Francisco does hereby elect Daniel F. Del Carlo as a Director of
the Golden Gate Bridge and Highway District for the City and County
of San Francisco for the unexpired term of Arnold Haase, deceased.
Discussion
In connection with the consideration of the appointment of a Director
to the Golden Gate Bridge and Highway District, the Clerk presented
and read copies of telegrams from the San Francisco Hotel Associa-
tion and from Mr. Douglas Dorn, of the Russ Building, addressed to
the Mayor, and recommending and urging the election of Mr. Rene
Vayssie for the Office of Director of the Golden Gate Bridge and High-
1362 MONDAY. JUNE 8, 1942
way District. Copies of tlie Mayor's reply to tlie foregoing telegrams,
setting forth that the tlection of a Director was entirely within the
jurisdiction of the Board of Supervisors, were also presented and read.
Copy of communication from Lafayette Club, addressed to the Mayor,
endorsing Mr. Vayssie for the office, and the Mayor's reply thereto,
were also presented.
In addition thereto. Supervisor Uhl presented telegram from Mr.
Douglas Dorn. urging appointment of Mr. Rene Vayssie.
Supervisor Brown announced that at the time of the latest previous
election of a Director of the Golden Gate Bridge and Highway District,
he had suggested several names as candidates for the position, and he
was informed that those names would be considered at the time of the
next vacancy.
Supei'visor Colman, seconded by Supervisor Brown, moved that the
name of Rene Vayssie be substituted for the name of Mr. Daniel F.
Del Carlo in the foregoing resolution. Mr. Vayssie is well known; he
is recommended by the Lafayette Clb. by Douglas Dorn and by Ray-
mond H. Crummy. He would without doubt, make an excellent Director.
Supervisor Shannon agreed with the views expressed by Supervisor
Colman. However, he had already agreed to support Mr. Del Carlo, and
for that reason he would have to vote for the Finance Committee's
recommendation.
Supervisor Gallagher who originally proposed the election of Mr.
Del Carlo, stated that he had introduced the resolution in good faith.
He believed a representative of labor should be on the bridge director-
ate.
Supervisor Roncovieri also agreed with Supervisor Colman. He
knew Mr. Vayssie, who is a very worthy genleman and deserving to
be on the Board of Directors. However, as he had pledged his word.
he must vote for Mr. Del Carlo.
Motion Defeated
Thereupon, the roll was called and the motion to substitute the name
of Mr. Vayssie in place of that of Mr. Del Carlo was defeated by the
following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown. Colman — 2.
Noes; Supervisors Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara,
Roncovieri, Shannon, Uhl — 9.
Whereupon, the roll was again called and the foregoing resolution
was
Adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Colman, Gallagher, Green, MacPhee, Mead,
Meyer, O'Gara, Roncovieri, Shannon, Uhl — 11.

Re-reference to Committee
The following matter from Finance Committee, without recommenda-
tion, was taken up:
Annual Audit of Controller's Books
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor O'Gara presented Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, It is incumbent upon the Board of Supervisors, under the
provisions of Section 68 of the Charter, to order an annual audit of the
Controller's books and accounts, records and transactions to be made
by one or more certified accountants; now, therefore, be it
Resolved. That the Board of Supervisors does hereby order an audit
of the said Controller's books and accounts, records and transactions
for the fiscal year 1941-42, and for the purpose of making said audit
does hereby engage and retain the firm of Ernst and Ernst, certified
public accountants, and hereby fix the compensation of said firm as
follows, to-wit:
1370 MONDAY, JUNE 8, 1942
For Supervising Accountant $50 per day
For Senior Accountant $25 per day
For Junior Accountant $15 per day
together with such office expense, including typewriting, as may be
incidental to the preparation of a full report of the audit of said
accountants; and, be it
Further Resolved, That the report of such accountants shall be printed
and a copy thereof furnished the Mayor and to each member of the
Board of Supervisors, to the Chief Administrative Officer, to the Con-
troller and to such citizens as may apply therefor; and, be it
Further Resolved. That the total expense of making such audit shall
not exceed the sum of $5,000, and shall be paid from Appropriation No.
201.262.00. fiscal year 1942-43 Appropriation Ordinance.
Discussion
Supervisor Uhl, in discussing the foregoing Resolution, announced
that while he had no preference as to the firm of accountants to be
engaged to audit the Controller's books, he believed the work should
be given to a local firm, and he suggested that all local firms, qualified
to make the required audit, be considered, and one firm be chosen by
lot.
Supervisor MacPhee suggested that bids be called for the performance
of the work.
The Controller, however, pointed out that there was a defect in the
Resolution before the Board, inasmuch as it had not the Controller's
certification as to availability of funds, and suggested it be re-referred
to committee.
Whereupon, on motion by Supervisor Shannon, seconded by Super-
visor Gallagher, the resolution was re-referred to Finance Committee.
Adopted
The following recommendation of Education, Parks and Recreation
Committee was taken up.
Present: Supervisors Roncovieri, MacPhee.
Requesting Board of Education to Consider Delay of One Week in
Commencement of School Children's Vacation
(Series of 1939)
Supervisor Green presented Resolution No , as follows:
Whereas, Thousands of San Francisco's school children will embark
on their summer vacation commencing June 19 and ending August 31,
1942, and
Whereas. Many of them, along with their parents and friends, will
undoubtedly disport themselves at the various summer resorts for
which the State of California is so well known, and
Whereas, It is essential, propitious and in consonance with the
fundamental principles of National Defense that recreational proclivi-
ties be made a component part of our every-day life, and
Whereas, It has been suggested that the Board of Education give
favorable consideration to the proposition that the summer vacation
period be delayed one week from June 19th so that the termination of
such vacation period may extend beyond the Labor Day holidays, thus
providing additional time for recreation, and
Whereas, Favorable action by the Board of Education will achieve a
four-fold purpose, to-wit:
(a) Contribute materially to the financial stability of the
recreational centers
(b) Contribute materially to the financial stability of the
community in which the summer resorts are located
MONDAY. JUNE 8, 1942 1371
(c) Provide a basis on which to build everlasting goodwill and
friendship between San Francisco and the various counties
(d) Faithful compliance with the letter and spirit of National
Defense
now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That this Board of Supervisors respectfully requests the
Board of Education to give full consideration to delaying the beginning
of the school children's vacation one week so that the benefits above
enumerated may be realized.
Discussion
Supervisor Green reported that Mr. Irving Breyer, Atorney for the
Board of Education, in discussing the foregoing resolution, had stated
that it was most unlikely that the Board of Education would consent to
change the school vacation period for the current summer vacation.
Supervisor Brown pointed out that many people had doubtless made
plans for their own vacations immediately following the close of
school, and that any change in the closing date for schools would be
vigorously opposed.
Thereupon, Supervisor O'Gara moved, as an amendment, that the
resolution be re-worded to the effect that this year's vacation be ex-
tended for one week, and that next year consideration be given to
starting the vacation a week later and continuing it a week later. In
effect, this year's vacation, if the proposal were put into effect, would
be a week longer than usual.
Supervisor Uhl objected to any action, pointing out that the Board
of Supervisors had no voice in the matter at all.
Supervisor Roncovieri agreed with Supervisor Uhl that the Board
of Supervisors has no authority in the matter of fixing school vaca-
tion periods. However, to let the Board of Education know the thoughts
of the Supervisors, he moved that the resolution before the Board be
amended in accordance with Supervisor O'Gara's suggestion.
Mrs. Rose Walker, having been granted the privilege of the floor,
opposed any change in the school vacation period.
Supervisor Colman expressed his views, stating that he felt it would
be unwise to adopt the resolution, although he would like to help San
Francisco's neighboring counties by extending the vacation period a
week.
Supervisor Gallagher, thereupon, moved that the resolution be re-
ferred to Committee.
Motion failed by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Colman, Gallagher, Green, Meyer, O'Gara — 5.
Noes: Supervisors Brown. MacPhee, Mead, Roncovieri, Shannon,
Uhl— 6.
Amendment Approved
Thereupon, the roll was called on amendment by Supervisor Ronco-
vieri, as suggested by Supervisor O'Gara, as follows:
"Resolved, That this Board of Supervisors respectfully requests
the Board of Education to give full consideration to extending by one
week the school children's vacation for 1942, and to commencing and
concluding said vacation in succeeding years a week later, so as to
extend beyond the Labor Day holidays, so that the benefits above
enumerated may be realized."
Ayes: Supervisors Brown, Green, MacPhee, Mead, Meyer, O'Gara,
Shannon — 7.
Noes: Supervisors Colman, Gallagher, Roncovieri, Uhl— 4.
Adopted
Whereupon the roll was again called, and the resolution, amended
to read as follows, was adopted by the following vote:

undoubtedly disport themselves at the various summer resorts for

Expressing Confidence in Mayor Angelo J. Rossi, as a Patriotic,
Loyal and Conscientious Citizen of the United States
(Series of 1939)
The Judiciary Committee presented Resolution No. 2689, as follows:
Whereas, On many occasions this Board of Supervisors or its indi-
vidual members have disagreed with or disapproved of the admini-
stration of the municipal government by his Honor, the Mayor, and in
all probability this Board or its individual members when in its or
their opinion the exigency warrants, will continue to differ with the
Mayor; and
Whereas, Regardless of the honest differences of opinion which have
and undoubtedly will continue to exist between the Mayor and the
Board of Supervisors or its individual members there never has been
felt, by the members of the Board towards the Mayor, anything but
profound respect for his integrity as well as for his loyalty and abiding
faith in the United States of America and its institutions; and
Whereas, His Honor Angelo J. Rossi, Mayor of the City and County
of San Francisco has recently been the subject of much discussion and
controversy in connection with the question of his patriotism and
loyalty to the United States of America: and
Whereas, This unfortunate incident has received widespread pub-
licity, the inferences from which are adverse to the best interests of
the City and County of San Francisco and derogatory of His Honor, the
Mayor; and
Whereas, The Assembly Interim Committee of the State Legislature
is performing a valuable and necessary public service in investigating
and exposing alleged unpatriotic actions and this Board in no way
wishes to pass upon any evidence presented to said committee; and
Whereas, Nevertheless, the members of this Board individually and
without reference to any evidence presented to said committee desire
t,') express their opinion and belief, based solely upon their personal
knowledge of Mayor Rossi as a man and a public official, now there-
to i-e, be it
Resolved, That this Board of Supervisors cognizant of the hysteiia
and prejudices with which the human mind may be pervaded, particu-
larly in war times, takes this opportunity to express publicly and with-
out reservation its complete confidence that Mayor Angelo J. Rossi like
the overwhelming majoi'ity of Americans of Italian and German an-
cestry is a patriotic loyal and conscientious citizen of the United States
of America.

Whereas. Over a long period of years the Market Street Railway
Company, a corporation organized and existing under and by virtue
of the laws of the State of California, through its predecesors in in-
terest and otherwise, acquired certain rights, franchises, privileges
and pei-mits to operate a street railway system on the streets of the
City and County of San Francisco; and
Whereas, Said Market Street Railway Company is obligated there-
under to keep in good order and repair the pavement between its rails
and the pavement adjoining said street I'ailway tracks for a distance
of two feet beyond the outer rails thereof; and
Whereas, Said Market Street Railway Company has been, and is
now, operating, under an operating permit dated February 9. 1931. duly
granted under the provisions of Sections 6a and 6b of Chapter IL
Article II of the Charter of the City and County of San Francisco, its
street railway system, which said operating permit is based upon the
compliance by said Market Street Railway Company with all the terms
and conditions contained in the rights, franchises, privileges and per-
mits heretofore granted; and
Whereas. For several years past said Market Street Railway Com-
pany has neglected and failed to keep said portions of said pavement
on the various streets of the City and County of San Francisco on
which it operates its street railway system in good condition and repair;
and
Whereas. Said portions of said pavements are broken, dilapidated
and in a general condition of disrepair; and
1378 MONDAY, JUNE 8, 1942
Whereas, The cost of rehabilitating those portions of streets upon
which the Market Street Railway Company is privileged to operate, in
accordance with its franchise provisions, is estimated to be $2,000,000;
and
Whereas, It is represented on good authority that the Market Street
Railway Company, opeiating on a seven cent fare, is making a monthly
profit of approximately $40,000 and is therefore in a position to pres-
ently comply with its franchise obligations; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the City Attorney be and is hereby authorized and
directed to immediately institute a legal proceeding to compel the
Market Street Railway to fulfill its paving obligations in order that
those portions of the streets I)etween and adjacent to the Company's
tracks may be made traversable, with some degree of comfort and
without injury, to other vehicles entitled to the use of the public streets.

Report on Peninsula Sub-Committee of Regional Development
Council and General Regional Council Meeting No. 2. Held at
Hotel Stewart — San Francisco — June 6, 1942.
Supervisor Green presented:
The Peninsula Sub-committee of the Regional Development Council
convened at the hour of 10:45 A. M., at the Hotel Stewart, San Fran-
cisco. Said sub-committee was called to order by Chairman Fred Beer,
Chairman of the Board of Supervisors of San Mateo County.
MONDAY, JUNE 15. 1942 1461
The first matter considered was the advisability of recommending
the Reber Plan, for control of the waters of the San Francisco Bay
as it affects defense, shipping, irrigation, etc. Mr. Ronald Campbell of
San Mateo stated that the Reber Plan should be considered by each
sub-committee and that upon the convening of the General Development
Council at 11:30 the entire group should consider it and make a
recommendation.
Mr. Beer stated that his county, San Mateo County, was against the
plan because of the inherent difficulty shipping would have in reaching
his community if the plan were to go into effect.
Representatives from Redwood City and South San Francisco stated
that not only were their Councils and Boards of Supervisors against
the plan but that their respective Chambers of Commerce and civic
clubs were very definitely opposed. Mr. Campbell spoke from an en-
gineers standpoint when he stated that such a plan would upset the
balance of nature in that the peninsula would lose the scouring action
of the sloughs, etc. He also pointed out that if such a plan were to
go into effect we would lose our ocean beaches as we now know them
because the sand now brought down by the Sacramento and San Joa-
quin Rivers tends to go south and build up the beaches. If that sand
were to be diverted elsewhere the action by the water and storms
would break down the existing beaches. It was also reported that the
Commandant of Mare Island is opposed to the plan.
After further general discussion, it was moved, seconded and passed
that said sub-committee go on record as being opposed to the Reber
Plan for the following reasons:
1. The time is not propitious.
2. It would be injurious to the Peninsula Counties in many
ways.
3. It would tend to break down our beaches.
Next subject discussed was that of sewage disposal. A general dis-
cussion was had as to the methods of sewage disposal used in the pen-
insula counties.
It was reported that the problem in San Francisco is not as acute
as it is in San Mateo and Santa Clara Counties because San Francisco
has such a heavy tide flow that the sewerage is almost immediately
carried out to sea. However, it was thought of the committee that we
should leave the coordination of sewerage disposal of the 3 counties,
or as a matter of fact, of the 9 counties comprising the entire committee
to the engineering members of the committee to study and report. It
was then moved, seconded and passed that a committee be appointed to
contact the State Board of Health to secure their views as to the advis-
ability of presenting to the next regular meeting of the California
State Legislature appropriate legislation looking to a standard sewer-
age system, in said 9 counties, that would be paid for out of state funds.
The meeting was then adjourned, and the General Regional Develop-
ment Committee was convened.
It was moved, seconded and carried that there be a regular meeting
every 90 days. Verbal reports were made by the Chairmen of the 3 sub-
committees and will be reduced to writing and forwarded to the Secre-
tary of the Peninsula Sub-Committee.
Chairman of the North Bay Committee spoke on housing, transporta-
tion and sewerage. The East Bay Committee chairman spoke on trans-
portation and its relation to housing. Mr. Ronald Campbell gave a de-
tailed report and diagrammed the Reber Plan. Regularly moved,
seconded and passed that any any consideration of the Reber Plan be
postponed for the duration of the war time emergency.
Regularly moved, seconded and passed that the next meeting of the
Regional Development Council be held at the Casa de Vallejo, Vellejo.
The agenda set forth in the notice of the Regional Development
Council meeting was as follows:
1462 MONDAY. JUNE 15, 1942
1. Discussion of Reber Plan.
2. Start work on one unit of Regional Plan (in addition to local
problems to be studied by regional sub-committees).
Suggested Planning Subjects:
(a) Regional Transit and Transportation.
(b) Regional Airport system (small fields-flight strips, etc., for
civilian flying in post-war period).
(c) Regional Plan for sewage disposal.
(d) Regional Park and Parkway Plan.
3. Authorize "Executive Committee" to draft statement of objectives
of Regional Development Council. Discuss desirability of preparing
"constitution and by-laws" to provide framework for council pro-
ceedings.
Because the time did not permit full discussion of all of said topic,
sub-committees were appointed and requested to report back to the next
general meeting.
Meeting adjourned at 2:30 P. M.
Respectfully submitted,
ROBERT MILLER GREEN.

Minutes Annual Breakfast Meeting Redwood Empire Supervisors
Unit, Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel, Hollywood, 8:00 A. M., May
22nd, 1942.
The following matter was presented by the Clerk and ordered printed
in the Journal of Proceedings.
Meeting called to order by President Ed Haehl, Chairman Mendocino
County Board of Supervisors.
Written registration was had, per attached signatures made a part
hereof.
Greetings were extended by the President, who also introduced offcial
guests, per separate list attached.
Roll call was had by counties — introduction by each County Board
Chairman or his representative.
Minutes of the last meeting were approved.
Communication from C. H. Demaray of Grants Pass, Oregon, Presi-
dent Redwood Empire Association, was read by Supervisor Haehl. per
attached copy made a part hereof.
The President asked the San Francisco delegation what the City and
County of San Francisco was budgeting for publicity and advertising
for the new fiscal year 1942-43.
Supei-visor Gerald O'Gara of San Francisco declared that the pre-
liminary budget contained an item of $320,000.00 ($20,000.00 increase
over the current fiscal year), and expressed opinion that the new total
would eventually be passed by the Boaid of Supervisors of San Fran-
cisco.
The General Manager R. E. A. was then called upon for report on
behalf of the Executive Board.
The Manager stated that informal tentative suggestions regarding
the 1942-43 county appropriations were: that the same pro-ratas as
for past year be established by each county; that each county appro-
priate and ear-mark the same pro-rata as for the current year now
closing; the Executive Board to draw upon these appropriations only to
the extent that future conditions warrant (depending on automobile,
gasoline rationing, tire and othei- conditions as related to the war effort
and the general situation ) ; that in any case sufficient funds be made
availal)le to keep the counties and the "Redwood Empire" in the minds

of the public, anticipating the post-war period when people will com-
mence to travel in great numbers again.
You will recall that during World War I — -seventeen corporations
decided to cancel out all advertising for the duration, expecting to pick
up where they left off — at the end of the war.
Instead of picking up. they found themselves out of business, because
the public forgot their products; for lack of advertising thereof ("out of
sight, out of mind").
That is the reason why automobile and tire manufacturers and many
others, not now in a position to either manufacture or deliver goods to
consumers, continue to spend millions of dollars advertising their prod-
ucts and trade-mark value thereof — in order to keep their products in
the minds of the public, anticipating the post-war period.
The same principle applies to merchandising of attractions, resources
and advantages of counties and regions.
Our competitors are operating on that basis, and it is only good
sound business for the counties and the Redwood Empire to do the
same.
This is not an attempt to perpetuate jobs for the staff; on the con-
trary, the male members of the staff, like millions of others, are subject
to military service.
The objective is exactly as above outlined — on the basis of sound
business and merchandising principles.
The President then called upon Supervisors present to express in-
formal opinions regarding the above proposal and suggestions; also
to express objection or criticism.
No discussion took place and no criticisms or objections were sub-
mitted.
Supervisor George Kennedy thereupon submitted resolution request-
ing Congresional delegation to secure and publish inventory of facts,
regarding tire and automobile situation, as related to war needs and
to stop perpetual "hint and threat" statements per attached copy.
Considerable discussion ensued.
Finally, it was regularly moved by Supervisor Joseph Cox of Sonoma
County and seconded by Supervisor Henry Mauldin of Lake County
that the resolution be adopted as presented.
After further discussion, the motion passed unanimously.
Following brief reference to the Semi-annual report of the Supervisors
Unit and Highway Committee, as submitted at the Semi-annual con-
vention in Willits. May 1st. following action was taken and authority
given the general manager to proceed accordingly:
(a) Campaign to protect basic fundamentals of the Federal Aid
Highway structure, anticipating post-war period.
(b) Campaign to cut red tape delaying clearance of important high-
way projects in Washington. D. C.
(c) Endeavor to bring about allocation of access funds, possibly
pooled with State funds — for minor improvements and re-surfac-
ing, within the purview of regulation L-41 ; also that maintenance
work be regarded as to include repair work on slips, slides and
major repairs.
(d) Campaign to obtain more access road authorization by Congress
by at least $100,000,000.00 (H.R. 6908).
(e) Campaign to obtain access funds for repair of roads damaged
by the military as provided in National Defense Highway Act.
(f) Intensive campaign to finally obtain access road funds for the
Sausalito Lateral.
(g) Attend Highway Commission Hearing in Sacramento. May 27th.
Recommendations from the May convention that efforts be made to
1464 MONDAY, JUNE 15, 1942
induce the Federal government to finance maintenance of Golden Gate
Bridge was then submitted for discussion and action.
Supervisor E. J. Guidotti. Chairman Sonoma County Board, and
originator of the recommendation, further amplified the proposition,
also read letter of support from Supervisor Fred Bagshaw. Chairman
Marin County Board of Supervisors, per attached copy.
Supervisors Gerald O'Gara and Arthur Brown of San Francisco also
supported the project, pointing out that extraordinary conditions merit
Federal aid, especially because of the tremendous free use by Govern-
ment agencies and distorted the interpretation by the government of
what constitutes free use ;also on account of expected reduction in
traffic due to rubber shortage and potential gasoline rationing.
After further discussion it was moved, seconded and unanimously
carried that the Association be authorized and instructed to proceed
with the campaign designed to obtain Federal appropriations for main-
tenance of the Golden Gate Bridge.
The next order of business was election of officers*.
Supervisor James Tocher of Lake County nominated Supervisor
Lilburn Kirkpatrick. Chairman Lake County Board of Supervisors, to
l)e President, Redwood Empire Supervisors Unit.
There being no further nominations, it was regularly moved, seconded
and unanimously carried that nominations be closed and that the Secre-
tary cast a unanimous ballot for Supervisor Kirkpatrick, which was
done.
Retiring President Ed Haehl then presented the new President, Lil
Kirkpatrick.
At this moment Supervisor Tom Maxwell. Chairman Napa County
Board, with appropriate speech of appreciation, presented retiring Presi-
dent Haehl with a gift from the Unit, thanking Supervisor Haehl for
two years of sincere and conscientious work on behalf of the Unit and
the Association.
President Kirkpatrick proceeded with the meeting.
Elliot M. Epsteen of San Francisco was unanimously re-elected

dents were automatically the incumbent Board Chairman, including:
