Number Twelve.
BY AN EMINENT DIVINE.

An eminent divine once
said, THE man who has a
bank account, even though
it be small, always walks
more erect, and has a larger
measure of self-respect than
the man who has not. Why
should not a bank be as
sacred, and contributor to
manhood as we'll as a church
Why should not a banker be
a minister of God to the peO-
pie equally with the preacher
or priest? The man who
helps his neighbor to a home
is a builder of affairs, whose
incense is fragrant with The
odors of heaven. No man
can afford to waste.
1t is worth a lifetime Of
scrupulous economy, if in
the evening of life, one can
be seated before his own
fireside. The reason 50
many are friendless, and so
many families homeless, is,
the price comes too high.
To sacrifice habits that
neither enlarge ones scope
of vision, nor brings any per-
manent joy, is to the aver
age man a burdensome task.
The time to begin sacrific-
ing is at the entrance into
life"

the average number of cars on other

In carrying out this partial re-
adjustment, to permit the owners to
give necessary attention to heavy re-
pairs, railroad operating officials
have been instructed to guard both
against inconVeniencing shippers and
against unnecessarily hauling empty
cars. Industrial plants and other
big shippers have been asked to CO.

it can be done with equipment avail

Increase for Chief Inspector
Would React to Benefit
of Commissioners if He
Should Decide to Retire
Citizens Back Patrolmen
Committee Appointed at
Bay Ridge Meeting to
Help Get Pay Raise Asked

Police Commissioner Engirght has
recommended to the Board of Estimate
and Apportionment that the salaries of
the patro linen under his command be
increased $3.50.
The patrolmen have petitioned the
Commissioner and the Board of Esti-
mate for an increase of from $3.50 to
$500. The Commits soner does not
recommend that this petition be
gra ted.
For the Chief Inspector of Police,
Commissioner Enright has recon-
,..ended salary of $4,000 year The
present salary of Chief 1nspe ctor is
$4,000. The increase, therefore. which
Commissioner Enright recommends for
his Chief Inspector is $4,000, or sc per
cent.
Other substantial increases are
asked for ranking officers of the Police
Department, but the increase requested
for the Chief Inspector is the largest.
The one most nearly approximating
it's amount IS that required for the
salary of the Commissioners secretary,
for whom an increase of $1,000 year
is recommended.
Might Help Commissioner
By virtue of an amendment to the
regulations governing the retirement
salaries of officials of the Police De-
partment, passed during the present
year, the pension of a retired Police
Commissioner is fixed at half the salary
of Chief Inspector Under the est-
ing salary rating for Chief Inspector
that would make Commissioner En-
rights pension, should he retire on
completion of his service with the
Police Department, $4,000 year. If
fho uni Z on 70 n n 6ot 70
an increase to $4,000 year for the
Chief Inspector is granted, his pension
will be ti5,oOO a year. BY increasing
the Chief Inspectors salary according
TO the Recommendation Of the Commits
sioner, the Board of Estimate viii auto
