RID AND O'BRIEN HAVE
A SHARP WAR OF WORDS
In Arguing for and Against the Police Commission Of Bmng
ham, Before Senate Committee Local Legislation,
Opposing Candidates in Recent Primary
Bring up Matter Of Poicemans Vote

Montgomery, February 27.-(Special.)-
Mayor Ward and Captain O'Brien created
quite a ripple on the serenity of the SEN
ate committee on local legislation late
this afternoon by some rather sharp re-
torts.
Captain o'Brien was arguing against
the abolition of the police commission lie
claimed it was unconstitutional on the
ground that it was a local bill even
though the claim be made for it that it
was general.
lie said they did not want a dictator
to run the police department of Brming-
ham. And Ward has been running the
police department for twelve months, :
said he 1.-THE mayor has been in COM
plete charge because the chairman of
the police commission is unassertiye and
entirely subservent to the mayor. II
Ward cannot make a better police de-
partment when he has everything in his
hands, what eolud we expect him to do
with two strong men against him on tie
proposed commission
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1907-02-28

Mayor Ward was cool in replying and
said that he had absolutely no authority
over the police. Captain OBrlen jumped
to his feet and cried: did you not on
election day ask a certain policeman his
age and then tell him he was too old
to be on that beat and that you were go
ing to move him to another because he
was a supporter of O'Brien for mayor
No, sir" returned the mayor, Il did
not, and who ever says L did tells an
untruth"
Didn't you ask him how old he was?'
mo sir because | don't want to know.
Any one can look at him and tell he Is
too old to be on the force. I understand
he has been telling some tales because
he had 500 bet on O'Brien for mayor
He never had hundred dollars in his
life" retorted O Brien.
Mayor Ward then told the committee he
simply wanted to ask that the provision
for executive session for the commission
TO be created be eliminated from the
pending measure and the incident closed.
