Reginald Towers of the brick company has questioned whether his company is responsible for paying, claiming that it was the province of the police department to proteet property. During the discussion, members of the board brought out the fact that there was no precedent for the city pay ditions existing in the brickyard | case, and if the city footed the bill for the supernumeraries’ salary, ex pensive precedent would be set. If {he department assigned a man- the brickyard and paid the salary, there would be no reason in the I ture why any place of business in the city could not anticipate trou- ble and demand that a policemun be ancd to act as watchman at thelr property at the expense of the cit it was claimed. No Pay, No Cop—Hart's Stand Chiet Wililam C. Hart brought the matter before the board saying that the man on duty at the yard has not been paid for his service The chief sald that when Towers came to him and requested that & man be assigned to regular duty at the brickyard, the question of pay- ing the man was discussed, Towers told the chief that he questioned whether he was responsible for the pay or not, but promised to investi- gate the matter and take care of the salary it he found he was responsi- ble for it. Chiet Hart said that he was in favor of withdrawing the man from the brickyard if he was not pald immediately rather than letting the bill for wages run too high. The chief said that the man could be used to advantage on other duty. Capt. Kelly Recovering The board recelved a report that Captaln George J. Kelly s now re- covering rapidly from the effects of his operation and will be back on duty with the department within a month., The captaln has been off duty for several months, A leave of ahsence for one year was granted Supernumerary Pollce- man Anthony Kruzinis, who has gone to Detrolt, Mich,, to enter busi- ness. In his request for the leave of absence, Kruzinis said that he was not certain whether his new venture would be satisfactory, and he desired to retain his status with the depart- ment in case he did not stay in the Michigan elty. Tavor New Traffic Device The board agreed to permit Adolph Felnberg of Hartford to in- stall a new traffic device that per- mits autoists to sece machines com- ing around blind corners.
