Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manual of Civics: A Text Book of Municipal Government for the City of New York The City of New York, with a population of over three mil lion people, presents a complex problem of municipal adminis tration. More than forty-five thousand officials and employees are engaged in carrying on the work of government in the city, at an annual cost of one hundred and ten millions of dollars. This enormous working force is employed almost entirely under civil service laws. The division of duties among the members is defined by the charter of the greater city and by numerous laws, ordinances and regulations, either enacted by the Board of Aldermen or the State Legislature, or prescribed by the heads of the various departments.
