A WARM MEETING
Board Has Dispute Over Gases
of Five Denoted Battalion
Chiefs of Newark.
From a stan Correspondent.

TRENTON, April 14.-The Civil
Service Commissions weekly meeting
yesterday was anything but a mild
affair, according to reports that en-
anated from the meeting room. The
dispute among the commissioners Is
said to have been over the settling
of the cases involving the five de-
NOTED fire battalion chiefs in Newark
and decision over the rights of WILL
lam McKiernan to be reinstated as
a playground commissioner in New
ark.
Both cases were laid over without
final disposition. Colonel Alexander
Fordyce, jr., the commissioner in
charge of the Essex county district,
suggested TO the commission that a
day be set apart for final considera-
tion of the appeals pending from civil
service employees in Newark and Es-
sex county. Owing to the large vol
ume of business before the commits
sion, It is highly probable that Colonel
Fordyce's suggestion will be followed
The commission handed down de-
oision that Charles H. Meyers was IL
legally dismissed as clerk of the Hud-
son county Board of Elections and
ordered his reinstatement.
Another decision yesterday was
that ordering the reinstatement of
DR.. J. Alexander Browne as health
officer of Paterson. Tho Paterson
Board OF Health appointed DR..
Thomas A. Clay as health officer. the
appointment being in effect q dismiss
sal OF DR.. Browne, who held the po-
sition. The commission held that DIR.

PLANS APPROVED
BY PARK BOARD
Weequahic Park Structures
4 Cost Put at sos, ,ooo-Addi-
/ ton to Golf Clubhouse.

Special arrangements for the pa
irons of outdoor sports were made
by the park commission yesterday.
The proposed improvements include
nm addition to the clubhouse for
golfers at WeeQuahic Park. Plans for
the new grandstand at the Weequahtc
Park race track also were shown. A
new shelter building will be added at
Irvington Park for athletes.
A year ago the commission decided
to establish a golf course and golf
clubhouse at Weequahic Park as an
experiment. The experiment has
proved so successful that the COM
mission is now planning TO enlarge
the golf clubhouse. The quarters are
toe small to accommodate the crowds
that use the golf course, which will
reopen informally next Saturday.
Engineer William p. Field present
ed the plans for the proposed new
grandstand and Judges stand at the
WeeuuahIc Park track. The stand
will cost $8s,000 and will seat about
8,I00 persons. It will also be safe and
dreproof in every detail. The old
wooden structure It will replace seat
ed only 1900.
The freeholders will have to make
allowance for this s6S,000 expenditure
when making up the next tax budget.
Unless this appropriation Is made by
the freeholders, the building Of a new
stand will have to be abandoned for
this year.

ing at Iryington Park. The building

WAITING FOR
HOUSE BILL 016
TO BECOME LAW
Police Commissioners Not Ger
tain as to Action on De-
moted Officers.

The Board of Police Commissioners
will consider the cases of the nine
lieutenants and nine sergeants whom
1t seeks to reduce at its meeting to-
morrow afternoon. At the hearing
given the men by the board on April
/ the commissioners decided to post
pone action on the matter until to-
morrow to permit of the passage by
the State Legislature of House bill
No. SIG.
At that time the commissioners ap-
parently thought that they were EN-
powered, under the present law, to
denote the men in rank for avowed
purposes Of economy. The recent de-
cision by the State legal department
bearing upon cases of fire and police
officers is taken as applying to the
men denoted by the police commits
sioners.
House bill No. SIG has passed both
the Assembly and the Senate and is
awaiting the governors signature TO
become a law. 1t provides that "any
person or persons holding office or
position under the classified service,
and whose position has been abolished
for any reasons of economy or other
wise and not because of delinquency,
shall with the approval of the Civil
Service Commission be denoted to
some lesser office or position in the
same department in the regular order
OF demotion."
It also provides that the names OF
men denoted in this manner shall Zoe
placed on a list which shall take pre-
cedence over the regular civil service
lists when promotions are to be made.
The bill has been considerably
amended. In its original form 1t pro-
vided that a fireman or policeman
could be separated from the service
and that fire or police commissioners
could denote OF degrade.
The separating" proposition, 1t IS
said, would be an Illegal act, hence
the change as 1t appears above. A
further change Is that an officer
cannot be denoted without the APP
proval OF the Civil Service Commis-
sion.
It develops, Just as stated in the
Evening Star some days ago, that
the police and fire commissioners,
also the civil service commissioners, |
finding themselves without certain |
authority in the way of demotion,
have been awaiting the enactment
into law OF House bill S16 to help |
them out OF n hole.
President Frederick c. Breiden- |
bach, of the Police Board, said to- |
day that he did not know whether
the board would take action TO de-
mote the men tomorrow. The board
will act on advices from the city |
legal department and from the Civil
Service Commission, he said.
When asked whether the board |
will meet tomorrow, Mr.. Breiden-
bach stated that the commissioners |
will not be resting from their |
labors" tomorrow.

INFLUENCE COLOR OF BUTTER
Markets Demand Yellow Tint Which
Is Supplied ny Use of Dyes or
Character of Cows Feed.

Although it is fact that some dairy
breeds give yellower milk than others,
even though it may be no richer in
fat, the thing of greatest influence in
color is the kind of feed the COWS
are getting. Market demands call for
a yellow butter, which is supplied in
the creamery by the use of certain
harmless vegetable dyes, the use of
which dairy laws rightly permit.
The color also can be fed into the
milk and make the use of dyes un
necessary. Carrots, for example, color
milk and cream quickly One of the
natural coloring materials in milk and
butter is called carOtin, from carrots.
and this material is found in many
food materials. 1t is plentiful in fresh
green grass, hence the milk colors
up we'll in early spring. Alfalfa hay
cured to have a bright green color
contains good SUPPLIES of carotin, which
appears in the cream as g result.
Hay which has lost this green color,
dry corn fodder, silage, straw, yell
low corn and white, wheat, wheat
bran, cottonseed meal and other milled
feeds contain practically none, and
cream from COWS so fed will produce
a light colored butter unless artificial
coloring is supplied The color adds
nothing to the value or digestibility
of butter, save in ones mind, but the
market demands a yellow butter all
the year round and the color must
either be supplied in the feed or in
the creamery.
