After the councll's communication, recommending a re- ‘umuu!nu'm reducing the payrolls 10 had been read by Clerk Keough, Comnvissioner Kran- | John J. unanimously adopted. Text of Resolution, “Once more the board of fire com- missioners finds it necessary to re- spectfully recommend that the pay of the members of the fire department be not reduced. “At the meeting of the board held Junuary 23, it was voted that the recommendation be placed before you that no reduction in the salary of the firemen be carried out. That recom- mendation was read to you at your adjourned meeting, February 1. “In that recommendation the board clearly presented its arguments as op- | posed to cutting the pay of the fire- men, and it specifically declared ‘that until the two-platoon system is nstituted the present pay should be continued.’ “No sharper contrast can now be brought before you, if the pay of the firemen is cut 10 per cent, than a picture of the reduced pay of our | men, and the firemen’s pay in Mid- dletown. “If the New Britain firemen receive a reduction in pay of 10 per cent. they will be obtaining for their serv- ices compensation which at its lowest | is 50 cents less per day than what the firemen of Middletown now receive under a two-platoon system. Middle- town, with a population which is] niore than four times less than that of New Britai pays firemen a traight rate of a day, with a two- platoon system. “If the board receives a smaller ap- propriation, and the pay of the fire- men must be cut, the board must of course abide’by action which is en- tirely outside its jurisdiction. Nev- | ertheless, entrusted as it is with the department, this board is sure that a reductlon in pay is an absolute in- justice to every fireman, under pses- ent working conditions. Dugald McMillan has secured his | primary petitions from the city clerk and today announced that he is rea to go to work. In referring to his of- ficial announcerffent in regard to seeking the oftice of mayor, Mr. Mc- Millan would not give out any definite statement. He will, however, circulate his petition for signatures. IRISH SITUATION Republican Arm) C»Qll“mlllon Sunday Will Be Violation of Orders. Dublin, March 23.

San Vrancisco, March 28.-—August Frobst, former butler at the exclusive Rolling Roeck club, near Pittsburgh, | who charged that he was a victim of a deportation conspiracy because A young helress lost her heart to him | “always wanted to make love to every woman at the club” according to Mrs. | Richard B. Mellon, who arrived in San Franciaco yesterday. Mrs, Mellon, wife of a Pittsburgh financier and sister-in-law to Secrg- tary of Treasury Andrew W, Melloh, pooh-poohed Probst's assertion that she had advised him to return to Switzerland on account of the rom- nee said to have existed between the young butler and Miss Virginia C. McKay, Pittaburgh heiress. Mrs. Mellon today sald Probst's story was “silly, trivial and ridicu- lous.”” “I'have no recollection of ever speaking to Probst except as a serv- ant who occasionally waited on us at the club,” said Mrs. Mellon. “Of course, I knew him as did all mem- bers of the club. “The story is ridiculous on the facc of it. ‘I knew that my daughter was| not mixed up in it and I am certain that Miss McKay is absolutely blame- less." Mrs, Mellon's daughter, Miss Sarah (. Mellon, was said by Probst to have enjoyed the confldence of Miss McKay in regard to the affection the butler suld existed between the heiress and himself. CITY ASSURED OF WHOLESOME: MILK Restrictions on Peddlers A strident step in the campaign for better milk has been taken by the health department in the way of add- ed restrictions upon the licensing of milk dealers. This year those desir- ing to take out permits to peddle milk must first file an application and after an Investigation licenses will be granted only to those whose dairies and methods of handling are ap- proved. All licenses must be renewed by April 1, if business i{s to be con- tinued. The restrictions are of a most ex- acting nature so far as cleanliness and sanitation are concerned. In the the dealer to come to the office and re- new his licgnse, only. Often sugges- tions for changes were made, but in few instances, were the desired im- provements brought about. If the dealer was hard pressed and threat- ened with prosecution, his dairy changed hands and the same process was again gone through. The result was that the drive for cleaner and better milk progressed very unfavor- ably. Under the new system, it will be necessary for the peddler to show acceptable conditions about his diary before he is allowed to carry on his business. The applicant must give the dress of his place of business; com- plete equipment; number of quarts produced or purchased and if the lat- ter, where purchaser; number of quarts of whole, skimmed milk or cream sold, and whether sold in cans or bottles. In taking out a license, the appli- cant agrees to keep reasonably in- formed as to the comdition of the cattle producing the milk, and ac- cepts the license with the understand- ing that it may be revoked at the will of the board.
