IN FIREMAN CASE
Attorney for W. A. Schwerdt-
feger Wants Further Action
Taken in Regard to Pension.

Request that, because OF the many
points of law involved. the case Of Will
liam A. Schwerdtfeger. fireman Of No.
Engine Company. be referred to the
CORPORATION Counsel for new opinion,
is made in a brief filed with the Com
rnissioners today by Frank J. Hogan,
attorney for the fireman In the event
that tho Corporation Counsers opinion
is again adverse, the Commissioners are
asked to grant a formal hearing.
Schwerdtfeger was one of the FIVE
firemen injured in the fire at the
American Five and Ten Cent store
December 81. 1913. Later. following
his examination by the board OF no
lice and fire surgeons. he was called
upon by Acting Chief Engineer ~ j.

not be retired without pension on ac-
count of disabilities not incurred IN
the line of duty.

Applied for Pension.

Sciwerdtfeger replied by applying
for a pension. and was ordered before
? retiring board. which recommended
his retirement IN a pension Of $50 a
month.
The case was then referred To the
CORPORATION Counsel. who. in an opinion
recently submitted 10 the Comm ssion-
ers. stated that the testimony showed
that Schwerdtfeger's disability was IN
CURED prior to his entry into the serv-
ice, and that therefore he was not en-
titled to a pension. Corporation Coun-
sci Syme expressed regret at having to
give this opinion. and suggested that
the case was one for legislation action,
which he heartily recommended.
Will Consider Request.

the retiring board. which reported
that the hardships. and exposures IN =

Dairy Commissioners Flint Addressed
Quarterly Meeting of Union.

Bismarck. ". d.. March 1S.-The
Bl,rleish county educational and CO.
operative union met in Bakers hall
for it's quarterly meeting with over
sixty delegates from the various local
UNIONS in attendance.
Dairy Commissioner Flint had been
asked to address the meeting and
gave an excellent talk on the silo and
foundation stock for the dairy man.
He advised the farmers to build silos
and feed we'll. He advised two silos
on every farm. One a small silo for
summer feeding if grass became short
and Il large one for winter feeding. 1t
Was stated that in this country in or
der to keep Il steady flow of milk the
summer through that often feed was
necessary and that then the silo was
the safeguard. That as a matter OF
insurance alone the silo was worth
more than it cost. That it took two
thirds of the feed to keep UP the
animal life and existence and the
other third could be put into milk.
But il the feed fell off that the first
part was used to support life and If
the feed fell off one-half there would
be nothing left for milk and that
whatever milk was produced was at
an expense to the vitality of the ami
nal and reduced the flesh tina much.
So no man could afford to be scant
with the food supply.
