Passerini _felt | that by Keeping the older men on the force the board will reach the | limit of 75 men and many of the| vounger men who try for places on | the substitute force will be turned | away. He pointed out that the young men will soon become dise | couraged and it will be difficult to| get good substitutes when they are needed. | Commissioner Lange expressed the | {opinion that other departments have older eme ployes. Again he expressed himself | |against what hie called the injustice of putting men out of the service after they had been willing to work Whenever called upon, Chairman James J. Butler sug- ted that the board recommend an {ordinance which will make it neced: |sary for all substitutes appoiuted in the future to retire at the age of 35 ion was brought to a jclose by Chief Noble who said he thought a ruling prohibiting m«*n from serving after they were years of age was already in efl'ect‘ i Kunz Appears Before Board John A. Kunz, & contractor in the| service of the =school department| ‘who allotted part of his time to work at No. 4 fire house which is now be-| ing reconstructed, came before the board in answer to a letter sent hIm by the clerk. An answer to !l\e clerk's letter was read in which h(- asked that, before he appeared, he wished an investigation relative to the salary he {s receiving from (hs school and fire departments. Information from the school dc-| artment showed he was receiving 65 a week. When he began work Yur the fire department part of his {school department salary was de- ducted, but it was Yeplaced by the fire board s0 that his salary r mained at $85 although both de- ! partments were contributing. Some of the matters which n to be investigated were a report that| he was recciving two salaries, ing of the department |authority. Before he would talk he insisted that the statement of school department relative to the meeting. Commissioner Lange defende a| Kunz declaring that Kunz was act-| ing in good faith, that he hired 1.1.i Newington ualty Co. bor when he thought he would sav the city money and that he purchase. get it cheap. In doing these things| he did not realize he was taking| |authority which belonged to some- one else, Lange said. Dispute Becomes Warm The discussion became heated one time when Commissioner Beck- with Qe d: “You are an em- Nm of the board and should questions when they are To this Kunz replied: *“You won't answer my questions and T don't see |vhy I should answer yours.” Finally Kunz explained his work in the fire house and in conclusion he declared the floor was not laid ! properly by L. Anselmo, who \was aiso present at the mesting. An argument between Kunz and | Anselmo followed. Anselmo claime: | he has laid floors in this city for 1 years and he never heard a com- plaint of his work before. Both men were dismissed from the | meeting. As he was going out Kunz was assured by the board that it was not antagonistic when he was asked | ito appear, but that it wished to be- come acquainted with the work and check up on it. It was found that $1,000 was left to complete the re- construction. Appointed Substitutes Frank J. 8wiatek, 31 vears old. of 62 Trinity street and Stephen Wi lcavage, 35 years old, of 889 E Istreet were appointed to the sub- stitute force. Their term of service began this morning at 7 o'clock. Rudolph Foraeur and Frederick Macker were rejected because they failed to pass the physician require- ments, According to the report of Dr. A.
