APPEAL OF FIREMEN
IN COUNCILS TODAY
Ordinance to Better Conditions
Is Submitted by |. Walter
Thompson
WILSON FAVORS ACTION

Firemen Of Philadelphia today submit to
city Councils their formal plea for recogni-
ton. An ordinance calling for an increase
in salaries and a readiustment Of working
conditions for the fire.fghting force of the
city has been drawn up and will be intro.
duced this afternoon for the consideration
Of Councils.
The ordinance has the approval Of nj
rector Wilson OF the Department OF Public
SAFETY 1t was prepared by chief Engineer
William II. Murphy, of the Bureau of Fire,
at the invitation of the campaign commit.
tee OF the fremen.
J. Walter Thompson. of the Fortv.sixth
Ward. will Introduce the measure today as
the champion Of the hremen. Mr. Thomson
mas been in close communication with Joseph
T. Gaffney, chairman of Councils Finance
Committee, and the ordinance. coming with
the appreciation OF Director Wilson and
Chief Murphy, is regarded as having the
sanction of the city administration Mr.
CARNEY has frequently expressed himself
as heartily in favor OF the movement to
obtain more reasonable salaries for the
tiremen as soon the way is clear to make
the necessary appropriation.
A previous ordinance providing additional
funds and men for the Fire Bureau and
fathered by Mr.. Thompson, introduced last
September. has been "pigeonholed' in the
Finance Committee. It is understood that
the reason for this action was that the
ordinance did not conform in certain details
to the views of the Director TO forestall
any possibility of a similar fate for the
measure he is to introduce today. Mr.
Thompson submitted his ordinance to the
Director this morning and that official wrote
into the bill the items calling for the exact
amount of increase in salary to be asked
for.
