The feeling of the board is that com- pliance With the instructions might be | a forerunner for numerous petitions, ctc., which might emanate in the fire or police departments and passage of them might embarass the board of public safety in the management of departmental affairs.” Hard Pill to Swallow. Some of the council members gasped in astonishment while this communication w read and hardly had the last words died away before Councilman A. M.

I move that it be sent back to the board of public safety There was a general cry for the adoption of this motion until Coun- cilman Curtis arose with a copy of the charter and showed that'the safety board was within its rights, The charter says the police force shall wear distinguishing badges as pre- seribed by the board of public safety.

The safety board is to be commend- ed on its action. The bhoard knows, the public knows and Cooley must also know, if he is clever an electr as he would have people think, that the fire alarm system has failed bad- ly during the past few wecks, And de- lays in sending in a fire alarm are dangerous.
