to the new City Council today, after
Its organizations has been completed, his first batch of appointments
to commissions and boards, which
ultimately will total more than
fifty. Provisions of the.new charter, which becomes effective today,
increased the membership, on the
boards and commissions wnjch have
had only three members to five
each. These- appointments are a
newt of tho grnrrri 1 reorganlxation
of the city government.made necessary by the hew charter.
Appointments expected to be
made today are those of two new
members of the Board of Public
■Works. John S. Horn, secretary of
the Central Labor Council, Is expected to be appointed to the Board
of Public Works. This is in the
nature of a reward to organized
labor for its support of Mayor fryer at the May 5 primaries. The
name of the second appointee to
be made by the Mayor to this board
was carefully guarded at the^-City
Hall yesterday. The members of
this board have been receiving $300
a month each, but the City Council
which went out of office yesterday
recommended that the new Council
increase the salary to $500 a month
each for the new commission of
eve members.
The Mayor will probably also
semi to the Cgaincil today the appointments of two and possibly
four new members each on the fire,
police and harbor commissions, as
beginning today these boards cannot function, having no '.jorums
until the appolntmer'.s are made.

charter retired from the Are and
police commission, and President
C. J.' Colden of tht Harbor Commission retired to take his place as
a member of the new City Council.
