Horre is very insistent that certain or- dinances be strictly enforced. Also at tonight’s meeting, City Finance Director - Comptroller ' Charles Roberts will give his {September audit to the’ Commis- sioners for their approval. Another matter that aken up at the meeting is the appointment of a civil service |board, as the present board is ‘now on “inactive” status, ac- {cording to the former chairman, |Ralph Sierra. There are two pressing problems confronting the new board when it is form ed One is Patrolman Harry Baker's appeal and the other suspension renewal of Personnel Director Jack Murray's decision request- ling compliance with a Civil | Service memorandum regarding the employment of two policemen {now on the force. Murray has lruled that these policemen, d i spite performance of good wor tare not eligible for employment, ‘que to two recent tests given by the personnel service director. { With the turbulent “liquor” | question settled for the next | six months, no item of a “fire- up for the commissioners’ de- cision.

No official announcement has been made about the hangings, }though the report that they will | begin one minute after midnight jtonight was not denied by au- thorities, The dependants have not yet |been told when they will go to j the gallows, but somehow they {apparently realized, since varly morning, that this was their last day on earth. All of them, except | Alfred Rosenberg, the atheist, ‘discarded all their books this | morning except the Bible, which , they have recurred too repeated- ly during the day. Goering’s talk, since, he first addressed a guard today, has been chiefly about religion. He said he wouid read the Bible the greater part of the day, as ev- erywhere he turned he found something to strengthen his reso- lution to die courageously. Shortly before noon, he said, “J have no fear. I will maintain my dignity to the end.” Despite what he and other de- fendants said, all of them, except Field Marshal Keitel, appeared to be jittery. Keitel seemed to be calm and collected, as he had been throughout the trial and also on thé ay When™he hewrd he hae been condemned to die. Inside the jail, soldiers are larmed with tommyguns, and out- side ‘a full division is armed to jbe ready to crush any attempt to delay the hangings.
