FOUR POLICEMEN
 LOSE THEIR JOBS Commission Continues Re-
 duction of Force SALARIES HELD UP
Petersen and Jones Will Not Receive April Envelopes Until Investi- gation-Judge Lane Paci-
 fies the Policemen

As indicated by Judge Lane hereto fore, the police department was sub jected to another trimming yesterday by the commissioners, resulting in the re- lease of one captain and four patrol men.
 The officers released were: Capt. J. C. Jordan of Ensley. Traffic Patrolman R. C. Carroll, Alexander Hackney, T. L. Perkerso and Thomas Cartwright of Ensley. The dismssals came In the form of a resolution offered by Com missioner Lane a short time after tho commission convened yesterday morn- ing.
 The saving resulting from the re- lease of policemen will be s43O per month. It Is expected that other police force members are to be taken off with in a short t4me. In addition to cutting the police de- partment further the commissioners held up the salary due former Auditor Carl S. Petersen for services performed during April. It Is stated that MT. Petersen left unfinished a great amount of work, which is said to have resulted in the serious delay of the accountants report wanted by the commissioners Until the commissioners investigate whether MT. Petersen can be held under h/ bond to complete this work his salary will not be paid. The question of paying former president of the City Council Harry Jones for Services rem dered during April was also held up until Capt. Romaine Boyd. city attor- ney has time to pass upon the legality of paying that salary.
 The commissioners approved other payrolls at the morning session and passed over a great many routine ap- peals petitions and other details.
 After adjourning for lunch the com niissioners gathered again at o'clock. The afternoon meeting was barren of any results as the commissioners were engaged in nothing but the most tedi~ ous sort of routine matter.
 The afternoon was spent In the monotonous duty of reading various pc . titions and referring them to the in- dividual commissioners and some heads of the departments for report
 Virtue Its Own Reward
 Judge A. 0. Lane gave his first re- quirement for policemen yesterday when it was suggested to him that great many of the patrolmen were sore ly afraid and were on pins to know what minute they would be safe or discharged.
 The judge said that if they came to the department without any blemishes and they had performed their duty thereafter they may feel safe and calin
 While I was Mayor of Birmingham eight years I created a standard of un- questionable merit for patrolmen,' he said. They must be up to the scratch l will not tolerate any man on the force who is at all irregular or who has come into that department with an un- sound record.
 "If they have been good, honest clean men before their election, have kept the records clear and have not neglected thcir duty since that time they may be perfectly at ease. But we must nave a good, clean administration of police affairs with clean men,"
