NOTE.

This pamphlet is an attempt to show the actual differences between the text of the charter bill as passed by the legislature on the 5th of April, and that of the bill as proposed by the Charter Revision Commission. It is for the information of those who desire to know what the changes are, and who have not the time for the necessary laborious comparison.

In order that this comparative statement might be published without undue delay, it has been necessary to assume generally the correctness of the marking in the printed bill as passed, designed to show the changes which the bill would make in the present charter. In view of this necessity and of the haste with which the work of comparison has been done, some inaccuracies will perhaps be found in the text here printed. The section numbers are those which the sections would bear in the charter after the enactment of the bill as passed. In a few cases of sections appearing only in the bill as proposed by the Revision Commission, the numbers are those of the section in that form of the bill.
