SAYS AN INJUSTICE DONE
POLICEMEN AND FIREMEN

Editor Pensacola Journal.
/ wish to arouse public opinion and
call the attention of the city author
tiles to the injustice being done to the
police and fire departments by the
order issued last January putting
both departments on two thirds time
and stopping ohe-third of their wages
The immediate cause was the tying
up of the city money in a bank fail
ure without sufficient guaranty pro-
lection.
The immediate difficulty was lack
of money for city wages; and, under
the sudden stress of peculiar and I'M
foreseen circHmsta noes, at q time OF
excitement and abnormal conditions
someone was struck with the idea OF
taking 1t out of the policemen and
firemen.
Since the middle Of January these
men have lost two weeks time and
pay out of every six, so that men
drawing seventy dollars a month have
had their wages reduced to forty six
dollars a month.
|. Forty-six dollars a month. and not
through any fault but because Of
someone's neglect in protecting the
city funds.
/ condemn this as hasty ill-consid-
cred and exceedingly unfair policy. l
make every allowance for the pres
sure under which the scheme was
evolved, but | say that the time has
arrived to consider a better one.
A drop from seventy dollars a
month to forty-six dollars a month
is not reasonable. I understand it is
proposed to continue the punishment
until the end of October, by which
time every man will have been fined
over two hundred dollars.
Policemen and firemen, especially If
married, are in helpless position in
such a case as this. If a factory hand
is laid Off he can hunt job at an
other factory; but policeman or fire.
man cannot do that without leaving
the city and hunting from city to
city.
How would a merchant or doctor
or a lawyer or a city commissioner like
to have his income reduced third
say that these men are being
treated unfairly: that they are helpless
to move in the matter because they
need their jobs: and that they are
afraid to complain for the same rea-
son.
l say that the authoriNies snouio re-
consider this plan, which was hastily
adopted because il was quick: and easy
and the men couldn't help themselves.
am sure that if an expert account
ant is called into consultation to re-
view as a whole the various financial
departments of the city. a way can
be devised of spreading out this bur-
den which is now being borne by the
unfortunate policemen and firemen.

row Wilson down, there is no hope
or chance for any other democrat in
this land? I ask the gentleman if he
does not realize that this is q ques-
ton in which petty politics cannot
be played; that this is a question TIA;
appeals to the American manhood and
every citizen of this country who be-
lieves that a nation should be as hon
ofable in contracts as in Individual?
ask the gentleman from Missouri IL
he does not realize what every Demo
crat in this country knows that we
must support the administration or be
turned into the wilderness for forty
years more?'
Representative Hardwiek struck the
keynote to the whole subject when he
said that if Woodrow Wilson is to be
turpei down, no other Democrat can
sta nd.
1t is unfortunate that Speaker Clark
and Leader Underwood should have
aligned themselves with the oppon-
ents of President Wilson on this CUES
ton. Public sentiment will not sus-
tain them.
