TEN POLICEMEN
TO BE ON FORCE

Moline will have 10 additional
policemen to protect the city from
the various crimes being perpe-
trated in this vicinity.
The Moline city council this
morning authorized City Attorney
Johnson to draw up an emergency
ordinance giving the mayor and
commissioner of accounts and fl
nances authority to borrow $4,000,
to be used for additional police
help.
Commissioner A. c. StOuffer is
looking for men today and several
new officers may be on duty before
nightfall Any able bodied man
who is willing to serve on the de-
partment is asked to confer with
the commissioner at the Moline city
hall The position will be perma-
nent.
The present fiscal year expires
April /. next year, and it is esti-
mated that the amount borrowed
will be sufficient to pay the 10 offic-
eTs' salaries until that time. The
police officers are receiving $102.50
per month, besides the s. a month
allowed for clothing expenses.
The police force is small. due to
the retrenchment policy followed
by the city after the people voted
down the tax issue last June. With
the additional officers. the police
force will still be smaller than it
was last June

WANT REMOVAL
OF PAROLE MEN
Moline Commercial Club Adopts
Resolution Asking That Pris-
Oners Be Sent Back.

The Moline Commercial club at
a meeting of directors held yester-
day noon drew up a resolution ask
ing that the parOled prisoners in
Moline, East Moline and Rock Is
land be removed. Following is the
resolution adopted by the club:
Whereas, During the war con-
strUcti0n period there was brought
to Rock Island arsenal and the
three cities a large number of par
oiled prisoners on account of the
labor shortage; and,
Whereas, This labor shortage
does not exist now on account of
labor being diverted from the de
structive agencies Of war to the con-
struction needs of peace. Be it,
therefore,
Resolved, That the Moline Com
merciaI club requests the removal
of these prisoners Immediately, and
calls on the city, county and state
officials for their immediate assist
ance.
