Warns against overreliance on volunteers for regular army
Colonel Thurston warns during the Army and Navy Club dinner that volunteer regiments cannot form a lasting regular army. He says the country will remain in current military views until a total defeat prompts change, and warns not to trust the Dick bill to create a standing force. Admiral Coghlan questions if there is a navy, while Colonel Allen and Major General Roe praise regulars and readiness. The NY National Guard, 15 000 strong, could mobilize in 24 hours, with proper logistics and training. A new army and navy toast closes the event.

Real Estate Tax Bill Discussed At West Side Meeting
Lawson Purdy, president of the Board of Tax Commissioners, defended the Saxe bill at a West Side YMCA real estate school talk on taxation. The proposal would require deeds recorded after July 1 to include grantor affidavits on true consideration and exchange value, with the same form filed for department use. Critics claim it harms realty by revealing sale figures. Purdy argued it aids equitable assessments and progress, noting the lien bill as a tool for back tax collection and stressing safeguards against leaks and overreach.
