CALL FIRING Of COP
BY W|GF|ELD JUST
Other Borough Heads Declare the
Proper Course Was Taken and
Condemn Nelly's Crowd

Burgess Fred Wigfields stand in the
recent squabble with the police COM
mittee has been further upheld by
the burgesses of n number of other
towns in the State to whom he had
addressed inquiries as to how the po-
lice force in these towns is regulated
In every case the burgess received
a reply asserting that his action in
dtsmissing Patrolman Jones for alleg-
ed drunkenness and neglect of duty was
warranted. Furthermore they said
the action of the police committee in
ordering his reinstatement was with
out the sanction of the law and con-
trary to all precedents.
Burgess John f. Drumheiser, OF
Shamokin, writes: "If any of your
tions you have the power to suspend
him and prefer charges against him
before the town council. The chief
burgess is the head of the police de-
partment and YOU have the direction
and control as to where and how they
shall perform their duties. The police
committee has not the power to re-
move or replace patrolmen. 1t only
has the power to investigate as to the
charges preferred and report to coun.
ell"
Burgess $. u. Shaffer, of Plymouth
writes: What | would do if ] were
in your place would be to suspend the
patrolman at every offense. And
would keep at it until the people be-
came educated to the facts and sup
ported me-" Burgess Sheaffer explain
ed that he had a similar squabble last
month but that council upheld him by
a to 4 vote.
William G. Edwards, burgess of Ma
hanoy City, commends Burgess Wig
field in these words: ''I think you are
justified. AS | understand the law
the police are in the hands of the
burgess. Prior to 1918, of course, the
supervision of the police was in the
hands of the borough police commit
tee. Under the same condition
would have taken the same stand that
you did in regards to the man-dis-
Icharged."
1t is likely that the Steelton council
will force Chairman Nelly of the po-
lice committee to report to council al
its meeting Monday evening on the
committees action in reinstating Jones
without the consent of council

VAN DYKE IS NOT
STUCK ON HIS JOB
Continued From First Pagel


$33. 900 for his nomination in his own
party.
There is already wave of resent
ment rolling over Pennsylvania as a
result of the effort of the Democratic
Washington party bosses TO capitalize
a great moral and economic issue for
partisan purposes. Mr.. Van Dyke,
who is mot stuck on the Job" was
quoted in the Star-Independent as say
ing that "he didn't think" that ne had
solicited any funds from men en-
gagged in tho liquor business In the
Mccormick paper this morning he
says that some of his best friends
are hotelmen" and he recalls that he
sent "one" letter to hotel proprietor
and another to retired hotelman.
He states that $50 far as / can see
there is no objection in sending a po-
lite letter to a man who owns hotel"
Again Mr.. Van Dyke has evidently
overlooked the fact that the McCor-
mick newspaper and the candidate
himself have denounced Dr. Brum-
baugh as a friend of the liquor peo-
pie" because his portrait happens to
have been seen in a number of hotels
Nothing is said, however, about the
Mccormick pictures in barrooms and
other booze joints.
This letter is my personal act"
says Mr. Van Dyke, but he overlooks
the statement in his appeal that he
was designated by the Democratic
State chairman to act as collector and
that he was serving as a Democratic
solicitor when he sent out his letters
Mr.. Van Dyke is short minded.
There were more than "one" of the
letters begging liquor men for funds.
II may he necessary to refresh his
memory by publishing some OF them.

when the Treasurer received a war
rant for $1,000 drawn under the act
OF 1914, and Mr.. Bell says: This ap-
preparation seems to be a Federal ap-
preparation of the same general char
acter as the appropriation referred to
in an opinion given by this depart
ment to one of your predecessors in

cine appropriation act of May IL,
