Women of Brooklyn, if
Elected Mayor. He Will
Give Time to Whole City

Reforms He Advocates
Borough President Uv.-.ry :1. Cur
._,. Republican-Coalition candidate for
\-_.,,,-, h an address last night before
i ' Br( ?klyn women at 111"
Remsen Street, Brooklyn, said thai if
! ho would be Mayor of all live
borough.-, serving each to the full ex?
tent of i. - power. He stressed tho
need for improved transit facilities,
better playgrounds and home rule. He
declared that he favored some modl
: form of borough government.
Mr. ( urran was welcomed heartily,
and hi3 speech was interrupted fre
y by applause. He explained at
the outset that he had been serving
the city for ten years and realized that
it was a city most difficult to manage.
City"s Expenses Explained
He called attention to the munici?
pality's erpenditures. "We spend al?
most 81,000,000 every twenty-four
hours," he said, "and we want to get
ouv money's worth. Tt means a go d
deal to g< ' it, because if we do not- the
result ? I be felt in every home.
"If elected, I promise you all that I
will be Mayor not only in the borough
in which I live but will be equally
Mayor of the five boroughs, and I wt-l
report to you in Brooklyn as well as
?he other boroughs and te!! you of my
administration."
In commenting on the need for home
rule in this city, the Borough Presi?
dent said the city could n< '. afford to
have two governments- -one in Albany
and one in New York. He asserted
thai the city should have greater pow?
ers than it now possesses, particularly
so far as transit matters are concerned
The five cent fare, he declared, ia

Borough Unie Urged
Mr. Curran declared he favored 01 i ?
i form of borough government
that would make the borough presidents
o rectly respi nsibl ? . > to. ? bi r-'>>.< .. .
Thero are fourteen city departments,
he said, which in manj ways duplicate
work, axid changes coul i be made to
prevent such duplication.
The Borough President deplored the
numerous automobile accidents which
ocur here, and added that increased
playground facilities would reduce the
number o?' such fatalities.
"Wo have 100,000 children on part
time in the schools, arid we have inade?
quate playgrounds," he said. "All of
this must be remedied."
At the close of his speech Mr. Curran
was adked many questions by the
women.
Mrs. Beatrice Stevenson, lender of the
? women, was chairman of the meetini;,
and introducing Mr, Curran said that
a change of city government was needed
and that "we must have a man who
knows the job."
