It is said that Theodore Bodenwein,
 the official leader of the party in the city and senatorial district, is a re-
 ceptive candidate for the mayoralty
 He has surely done much to boost the
 city and perhaps would not make such
 a very bad mayor, were the present
 incumbent not entitled to a renomin-
 ation under the political custom that
 has always prevailed in New London MT. Bodenwein is the chairman of the
 town committee and district member
 of the state central committee. and
 has made special study of the political
 game. and with some success, or he
 would not be the recognized of the
 present time. He was elected secre- tary of state for couple of terms, had aspirations for congress, and years ago, would have accepted nomination for representative in the Connecticut general assembly. He has for many years been interested in almost every move that was made for the better ment of the city. Though never a member of the court of common coun- 1 ci1, it's 8 safe bet that he has a keen CT knowledge of matters municipal l than any member of that august body, 1 It is rather early to talk local poll | tics, but it will give the dear public ample time ito think it over and give ali who have the nayoraltv fever a I chance to jump into the political ring and contest with Mayor Rogers for 1.-the nomination.

The local political talk has advanced to the point where actual candidates are being named, but no argument has been advanced why they should be nominated and the present mayor shelyed without any justifable party cause. Certainly none of the candi- dates thus far named have anything on Mayor Rogers in the qualifications essential for successful mayor Of this growing city. Alderman E. Frank Nor gan has been mentioned. This gentle man is chairman of the ferry commit tee ard responsible for the blunders made in the induction of the ferry Nath@n Hale, and also for the credit of the good work of the boat Eater on. He is also chairman of the street com naittee. { nd perhaps has something to do with the finances of the city His Lublic acts are known to his censti- tuency, hut nothing has yet been shown
 why he should be given the honor. Another candidate named is Alderman Harry C. Chappell, now very active in state defense and general war work. He is a first-class business man and perhaps would prove to be success ful mayor. But why shelve Rogers for him?

Despite the ali- absorbing topic, there is quiet local politics talked al though the city election is some six months away. Naturally there are many citizens regardless of party lines who believe that the earnest endeav- ors of Mayor Rogers to advance the best interests of the city ought to be recognized.a his public acts ought to be approved by a reelection. The mayor has done his level best to give his fellow citizens good admins tratioE of municipal matters, and along that line he has Succeeded fully as well as have most mayors who pre- eeded him. Sure Mayor Rogers has made mistakes for he is human and intelligent, and be it known that it has been said from time immortal that the man who could not make mis- takes was an emphatic fool. He has fitted in nicely as a war mayor and in that respect he has received desery- ed praise from the present war gov ernor for his valuable and timely as- sistance. While an impartial mayor, he is a strict party adherent and therefore ought to get the support of his party for renomination which spells election in New London, so large is the normal republican majori- 1 ty.

Mayor Rogers is always doing the
 unexpected and the unusual and one afternoon this week he called meet
 ing of the newsgatherers the police
 captain and the police committee, to
 talk over the situation, and the news
 men were called to give their ideas of
 how the police department ought to be
 conducted. Is there another mayor in
 the universe who would be so consid crate? One of the "scoopers" sug-
 gested the purchase of a runabout au- tomobile to be operated by a cop to
 cover the outlying districts now GOV cred by several cops. The mayor took the suggestion seriously. Some one
 suggested that appeal be made for a secondhand gift of an automobile for the purpose, the police committee declaring that there were no funds
 available for the purpose. Captain Pinney gave notice that if there was an increase of four men on the force the Springfield platoon system could be applied to New London. This was met with a statement that there would not be much trouble in securing all the men required, provided they would work without pay, as the committee had no money for additional salaries. Lots of suggestions were made, nearly all impracticable at this stage of the game.

Tucked away somewhere in the biq
 bunch. of ordinances enacted by the court of common council is little one that specifies that no committee of the court of common council shall expend sum in excess of $500 without the invitation of competitive bids. This ordinance has been ignored more or less ever since it's adoption, some
 times on a small and often on a large Iscale. Recently competitive bids
 were asked for the paving of Howard street and there is competition now
 on Over the selection of new piece 1 of fire apparatus. which shows that the ordinance is not wholly disregarded. l But in the past week a new. motor driven street sweeper costing more than s5,000 came to town, by order of the street committee, and for which
 there were no competitive bids. The
 new machine may be the best tbat could be had for the city, and all that
 but there are some citizens although not bern in Missouri, who have the
 instincts of the Missourian and want

lsnecial to The Bulletin.)

New London, April 19.-Charles Pin- ney, the acting captain of the New London police force, who was jump ed into the place over the heads Of a dozen or more members of the force who were his seniors in point of ser- vice and his equal at. least in Quali- fication by Mayor Rogers and the in- huences back of the mayor, has as- stunned the duties with becoming mod esty, and is doing his best to make good. so as to deserve the permanent appointment next October. MT. Pin ney for the eight years service on the force made good and there is no valid reason why he should not. be com petent to captain the New London po- lice force He surely has the assist ance of the mayor, which has not been given to Captain Haven, or Acting Captain Jeffers. The mayor realiz- ing. the lack of experience of Captain Pinney sent him to Springfield to be schooled in police work, the mayor se-
 lecting the Springfield department as model for New London. The mayor
 requested the captain to go to the po- lice school and of course the eap- tain obeyed, it being taken for grant ed that the mayor, or the city paid the bill of expense Being a very apt pupil. Captain Pinney did not study
 the Springfield system very long, and perhaps the mayor expects that Pinney learnel more of police business in a few days than did Jeffers, who Pin ney succeeded, did in the thirty and
 more years of active police duty in this city where he was born, and nc l doubt knows as much of, if not more i than any other resident thereof. Phe captaincy was forced on Pinney anG l he is entitled under the circumstances l to the undivided support of the mem.
 bers of the force, and this he will un- 1 doubted1y receive.

NEW LONDON'S NEW POLICE CAPTAIN
Takes Oce Gets Points from Springfield Chief and Settles Down to Business Different Attitude Towards News papers-Wrongs in Conduct of Municipal Afars-Can- dEdates For Next City Election Being Put Forward

l few thousand dollars expended for a street sweeper, which is more or less an experiment. It may be in the same line with the stone -crushers purchas- l ed sby the street committee of the court of common council many years ago. Did anybody in town ever hear of | special appropriation being made
 for the purchase of motor street.
 sweeper?
 I One of the main wrongs in the con- duet Of fnunicipal matters is the pre-
 sumDtion of some chairhaen Of stand-
 ing committees of the court of com
 mon council, who assume all author!- l ty but considerably permit other
 members of the committee to affix their. signature to bills contracted by
 the chairmen to complete approval for payment. That's a reason why 1t is difficult at time to get public inform l ation from committeeman. Here's g. case in point. The navy department \ has taken over the new almshouse I for use as an hospital and at a cer-
 tain rcntal-the department to take the premises just as they stood at the time of the taking over, and the city I would be at no expense in the trans | action, so long as the place was used
 as naval hospital Before the con- ditions were made known at a meeting of the council at least one member of the committee did not know the amount of the rental. Later he did understand that the city would be relieved of any expense in connec- tion with the premises until the term l ination of the lease or until abandkned as a naval hospital Still the grounds II are being graded, new sidewalks laid, and other improvements bting made on the premises, and the city is paying
 the bills. This member did not 4 know the work was being done until
 he happened out that way.
Norwich bulletin., 1918-04-20

The mayor considered the, little get Y, together meeting a success. He wants to get the newspapers with him and that's why the newsmen were taken in. The mayor, and the captain, too, gave notice that hereafter there would be more freedom on the part of the police department in giving out information of public nature to the news col lectors. Provided, of course, that all the news must come from the police plotted and not from the members of the force. Sure the police department ;s making 8 move towards improve me1t under the direction of the mayor. who, by virtue of his office, is chief of Folice of the city of New London.
