Although there has been no definite actién by the new Paonessa police board as far as may be ascertained, it | is rumored that steps are to be taken | to pension Police Chief Rawlings in the near future. There many person in.this city who will regret the of one so | is a| passing from official life leng connected with the city and with | the record that Chief Rawlings has. There is no question but that oppor- tunity has presented itseif, particular-| ly in prohibition years, for individuals high in police circles to have becom men of means. Chief Rawlings is still a comparatively poor man. Perhaps it should be cited to his credit that he is honest—the community expects that of ona placed in a position of author- ity, but it is certain that the city has not been disappointed in its servant. From a standpoint of length of serv- jce the Chief is deserving of some signal recognition. New Britain has grown, within a very few years, from scarcely more than a countr 1 into a thriving city of many races and many interests. The Chief has seen the transition, has been in charge of | law and order during the period of growth. We have heen singularly free from great trouble of any kind. The | usual number of crimes have been committed, an average number of eriminals apprehended. But we have had no remarkable outbreaws against| law and order. The Chief may not he the'person to thank for this as fate may have taken @ hand. But, there are few great mns of omission or commission which one may point and for which one may blame the chief police. He has possibly had no striking ex- amples of efficiency to parade before the public, doing his work quietly but effectively. efficient and has performed 1 well. The city owes him recognition his work. It will regret sceing his re- tirement. | to of Nevertheless he has been 1is duty for RUTH AND F/ Again Babe Ruth front page of the metropolitan press.
