CHICAGO FACES GRAVE CRISIS City is Penniless and No Loans Can be Obtained at Present Chicago, Jan. 10. —(U.R)'- With a last frantic SOS Chicago's governmental ship has gone down in th" ocean of debt through which her battered old hull has been wobbling for 20 months. The second largest city in the country is fiat broke. For approximately 16 years Chicago has been living beyond its income. Now credit is exhausted and the health and safety of tlwee and a half million residents t are threatened by the gravest financial crisis ever faced by an American municipality. Today, as Mayor William Hale Thompson and bis quarreling aldermen went into what threatens to be a four-month deadlock over proposed remedies, the city's millions were given a close-up view of conditions by the advent of another record snow storm. Street cleaning machinery broke down under the strain of clearing arterial highways. Women and ch Idren in residential djstricts waded knee deep in snoweirifts to reach groceries and public schools. The few trucks and men left in the street epaitmenf concentrated or. keeping loop streets open. Beh nd apartment buildings and tenements garbage continued to pile up because the disposal department virtually was paralyzed by lack of funds and by snow drifts. Merchandise deliveries were delayed in many parts of the city oy the clqeing of streets from which the snow could not lie removed. Automobiles and taxis were forced to foftow street car tracks which had been kept open by the surface lines. Other evidences of bankruptcy came out in the following developments: Underwriters threatened to raise fire and burglary insurance rates unless additional police and firemen were employed. Several first stations were closid and tften opened again under orders of Mayor Thompson when the curve on fire charts swung sharply upward. Mayor Thompson blames ‘‘reformers,’’ for the city’s bankruptcy because they insisted that all Chicago real estate be reassessed. The reassessment still is in progres. It Is estimated that it will reduce values in the loop district alone by $300,000,000. Meanwhile no real estate taxes have been paid for 20 months. In his veto passage Thompson called on the legislature' to provide emergency legislati.in iy which the city could raise more revenue. — o —- ■— Talk Dick Macklin, one of the newsboys for the Daily Democrat found teve.al pieces of counterfeit silver oh- in a yard along his route anti trued them in to tlt-'-t office and he officers were notified.
