ST. LOUIS, May 11.—Reports of resentful to-day at the action yester- day of Mayor Hylan in turning down a his own committee's report on the a establishment of the double platoon ‘\ e+ system, which he had promised them «| during his campaign for the office. vor Deputy Fire Chief George Kuss, ys) chairman of the committee, sald in- hy" stallation of the system would mean 1,800 additional men at an annual in- creased cost of $1,600,000, His Honor went right up into the air and retorted that there would not e another man appoifited, nor an- other dolfar increase in the service. * He eaid he did not care to hear any * more about the system the committee haf formulated. ‘The question of removing the beds from fire houses was brought up by Frederick W. Cowles, Mayor Hylan's appointee to the Bureau of Combus- tiles. “If you take out the beds,” said Deputy Chief Kuss, “we might as well stop working on the platoon - “When I was an engineer,” re- turned the Mayor, “I went home mlept. I never slept at the throttle.” Albert Gueness, who said he repre- sented 3,800 firemen, aroused the Mayor’s wrath by his support of the beds. He told the Mayor he had not come to the meeting to be insulted and the Mayor waved him to silence. His Honor then dismissed the com- » mittee with the remark: » “I can change the system myself without increased cost or affecting the efficiency of the department.” scektstlacedbea acim “THREE HELD IN $7,000 THEFT Arrests Made After Leather Rob- bery in Brooklyn. 4 Michael Sersel of No. 110 Central Ave- nue, Frank Campesi of No. 119 Stanhope Street and Antonio Scardino of 607 Flushing Avenue, all of Williamsburg, were arrested to-day by Detectives Thornton, Miller amd Windeberg of the Clymer Gtreet Station, ‘They were charged with Robbery of $7,000 worth of leather goods from the factory of Schuman and Mackey, No. 227 Wallabout Street, last night.

CHIROPRACTIC FOR HEALTH Any human ailment can be ana- b fast y the chiropractor without ger to the subject and free from the element of uncertainty so often confronting those who base their Aueanent of the treat- ment of disease on Syn teans alone, a procedure in which mis- taken diagnosis is of common oc- currence. The analysis made by the chiropractor is confined to the area directly over the spinal col- umn, There are no embarrassing situations and no complicated ex- aminations. Preparation for a chiropractic analysis and adjust- ment requires nothing more than robing one's self in apparel that will open in the back sufficiently to permit traversing the surface i. directly over the spine with the bare finger tips. Dressing room facilities and suitable garments are provided by the chiropractors. Since the establishment of the practice of the science of chiropractic about twenty-three years ago (1895) the work has grown to nation-wide extent. There are now about ten thousand members of the profession who daily give adjustments to about one hundred thousand patients. Good results are obtained in all forms of ailment. Thousands of men, women und children have been fully restored to health by the chiropractors. It will pay one in need of help for their health to investigate chiropractic, re- gardless of the form of ailment or failure to find any relief for it in any- thing else.
