Strong Influence Urges Appointment of
Chief Engineer of Fire Department

Recorder Dancey said today that he
had still under advisement the appoint
ment of an assistant recorder. He said
that two days ago he had about reached
a decision to appoint Mr.. Shultz. OF Bal
timore- Yesterday, however. friends of
R. W. Dutton, Chief Engineer of the Fire
Department. presented his name for the
appointment, and the backing OF Mr.
Dutton was so strong that 1t had been
necessary to hold up the appointment
for a day or two to decide upon the
new phase OF the question presented
Mr. Dancey had interviews with Com
missioners Mcfarland and West today
on the subject. and both recommended
the appointment of Mr.. Dutton strongly.
They argued the advisability of the
appointment of a District man rather
than an outsider.
1t is expected that Mr.. Dnncey viii
arrive at a conclusion in regard to the
appointment today, and the friends of
Mr.. Dutton are very hopeful that he
will be selected.
