CONDEMNS BRICK,
NOW HE'S BARRED
INSPECTOR GREEN0UGH AL
lEGES FAvORITISM
Tells Civil Service Commission That
Devotion to Duty Practically
BIacklsted Him as
City Employe

J. F. Greenough, eligible on the civil
service list for sewer inspector, told the
civil service commission yesterday that
he could not get job under the board
of public works because once he had
condemned brick in whose sale the son
of prominent city official was in
terested.
Once before the charge was made and
the accused official in question denied
the truth of the charge.
Greenough says he has had but three
months work in a year and is utterly
unable to get work under the Vrooman
act
1.-The board of public works is putting
it's pets to work and lays us old fellows
aside" said Greenough to the commits
sion. "They come up here and tell you
how dearly they love the civil service.
but they don't.
"One of the men in the engineers s
office told me I had gone before the
commission and raised a stink, but
what had I got for it? It's fact did
not get much.
But I am going to take leave of
absence from the list and then 1 will
go out and do politics to beat the band,
and I bet I'll get work"
F. Greenough intimated that he knew
why he was sighted.
Tell it," said several of the commits
soners.
"Well, l had charge of the sewer con-
struction at Arlington and Pico once
and was told to make good job of it, p"
said he. II refused to o K some of the
brick that was sent there, and before
long l was told that I was too f1nicky
an inspector"
Shortly before this charge was made

civil service laws were being adopted
and applied wherever possible here.

HALF HIS STORE IN ZONE;

Greek Raises New Law Question in
Asking Restaurant License for
West Sixth Street
Place

The police commissioners are called
on to constru& whether a man violates
the zone law when his proposed place
of BUSINESS is half inside and half out
side'tf1e zone.
Application of There's Pettulos for a
permit for a restaurant liquor license
at GA West Sixth street starts new
problems
This place is located in a two-story
brick building situated on the southern
side of Sixth street between Grand ave-
nue. and Hope street.
At this point the saloon zone is
bounded by line parallel with and dis
tant 150 feet west of Grand avenue.
This boundary line strikes through the
room desired to be used by Pettulos, a
portion of the room being thus within
the zone and portion outside of that
district.
The applicant is at present conduct
ing a small and neat restaurant at the
location. the police say, and is serving
bona fide meals. The applicant is a
native of Greece, has lived here about
four months and has had previous
restaurant experience in San Francisco
Chicago and Ukiah.

CIVIL SERVICE DROPS
EXAMINING DOCTOR
GERS0N DISPLACED BY MOORE
AND LOOMS
John r. Haynes Declares Action Is
Violation of the Rules, but
He Is Over
ruled

DR.. T. P. Gerson, for years examining
physician for the civil service commits
sion, was displaced yesterday by DR..
Albert Moore and DR.. Roy Loomis.
DR.. John R. Haynes fought the
change on the theory that such action
would be violation of the spirit of civil
service, as no charges had been made
against DR.. Gerson, who had always
given honest, competent service.
Commissioners Dan Laubersheimer,
M. K. Young and Chairman D. Edel-
man voted for the two doctors. Com
missioner Ona Morton asked to be eX-
cused from voting, though he said
he favored two examiners rather than
the old system of having only one.
In introducing the question Commits
sioner. Laubersheimer said he thought
the dual system should be introduced
as there was too much one-man power
about the old way. With two examin-
ers one doctor would be a check on the
other.
DR.. Haynes argued against the reso-
luton, saying:
Here is a man against whom there
is no suggestion of wrongdoing. To
make a change would be strong blow
at the civil service, a bad example to
all departments who look to us to at
least keep the spirit, If not the letter,
of the service"
Commissioner Young said no injury
would be done DR.. Gerson by the
change. He is not depending for
livelihood on the job, as it is only in
termittent employment, paying 81 a
head for each examination for the
police and fire departments. To fill this
position is strictly within the prov
ince of the board, just as each new
president may select new cabinet.
DR.. Haynes suggested that to be fair
the commissioners should throw this
position into the service and call for
competitive examinations for the place.
He thought any other course would
subject the commission to criticism.
mot any more than when it tram
pied the charter under its feet" re-
torted Commissioner Young, "by certi-
flying eight men to Assessor Mallard
when there were other eligibles on the
list
"Nor when it exempted the position
of bailiff to please a lot of politicians"
answered DR.. Haynes.

POLICE PUT SAFEGUARDS
ON PERMITS FOR BLASTING
Two Home Owners Applying for Per-

Find 1t Involves Red
Tape

Mayor Harper suggested quick action
before the police board yesterday in
the case of William Duffield of 1853 ST.
Andrews street.
In excavating for foundations for his
new home Mr. Duffield struck hardpan
and concluded that black powder would
have to be used to expedite matters.
He explained the situation to the
mayor, who laid it before the board.
Acting Chief of Police Paul Flammer
explained that the department was
careful about granting blasting per-
mits, eXacting a bond to guard against
damage claims.
The application was therefore re-
ferred to the chief with power to act.
II. K. Mcconnell also requested per-

COUNCIL HOLDS TIGHT TO
CABLE PERMIT PRIVILEGE
Unwilling to Relinquish to Board of
Public Works Right of Granting
Overhead Oil Well Con-
nections

The troublesome oil well cable ques-
tion was again before the city council
yesterday.
Councilmen E. "A, .Clampitt and Ber-
nard Healy think the council should is
sue all permits for stretching these
cables across street, while Oil Inspec-
tor Charles Blackmar and others have
pointed out that, as the board of pub
works has jurisdiction over street mat
ters all such permits should emanate
from that body.
Under the present law the legal de-
partment advises that separate ordi-
nance must be passed for every per-
nit issued.
City Attorney Leslie r. Hewitt has
submitted to the council an ordinance
in line with the charter, giving the
board the power subject to such reg
ulations as the council sees fit to make.
The ordinance was yesterday re-
ferred to a special committee with
Councilmen Clampitt and Healy on 1t,
they inviting Messrs. Blanchard and
Dromgold to serve also.

Our ntomolossts DO Mankind Harmful
Insects and Are Worthy OF You Cooperation

while by suitable work in the field
and garden man can destroy the de-
vourers OF his crops, can exterminate
those things that aid in scattering
pestilence.
We are prone to laugh at ento-
mologists as bug men," and to re-
gard them as being occupied with
trivial work; but by finding out how
different insects help or hinder the
well-being OF the human race and by
helping others to understand 1t,
they are doing a grand service to
humanity. II we laugh scornfully
at their work 1t Is because we are
not we'll enough informed to appre-
ciate 1t. For the sake OF our own
prosperity. our health and our life,
We should show appreciation for the
work that bug men" do. In times
OF wide general ignorance men have
died by thousands because they did
not know how insects were spread
Ing disease among them; and they
ignorantly cried 1t was visitation
from God. while 1t was merely the
fruit OF their own ignorance and Of
their failure to work according to
the laws OF nature to protect them
selves against harmful things Of
trivial size. We know better today

stroying our little enemies that at
