Central Improvement Organiza-
tion Appeals to Berkeley
Council for Action

BERKELEY, Oct s-The Central
Improvement club, of which w. p.
Grant is president and George Gelder
secretary, passed resolutions last night
at its regular meeting not only back
ing Fire Chief James Kenney, who was
reported to have been slated FOR re-
moval by the city council. but asking
that he be appointed head of the de-
partment. Although the council has
been in efi1ce more than a year, Ken
ney, who was an appointee of the old
board. has not been reappointed under
the new charter
The resolutions of the club, which
Will be forwarded to the city council,
follow:
Whereas, section so Of article VII Of the
Charter ci OF the city OF Berkeley, under the cap
that the council shall at the first regular meet
ing after the election of its members, or soon

Whereas, ooe OF such chief officials is the

appointed, although your honorable body has been

Whereas, we believe that it is in the interest
of said fire department and the city generally to
have an assured chief at its head; therefore. be
Resolved, that we, the members of the Central
improvement club Of Berkeley, earnestly recon-
mend to your honorable body that. such appoint
ment be made at once and in this behalf we
take great pleasure In suggesting the name of
the present acting chief Of the fire department.
James Kenney; be 1t further
Resolved, that it makes for the efficiency Of
the fire chief and the city whole. IL such
chief knows that he is actually appointed such
chief We recommend James Kenney because
be has wen the praise and plaudits OF his fellow
townsu1en; because he has worked and labored
to make the fire department what it is: because
he is efficient; because he worked and tofled as 8
volunteer fireman, without pay or favor, for this
city for many years; finally because we feel that
the only way to reward ability, honesty and
sincerity Of purpose and faithfulness is by re-
appointing James Kenney TO the position to which
he is naturally logically and rghtfully entitled.
