.FIREMEN APPEAL TO
BOARD OF ESTIMATE
Ordinance for Three Platoon
System After Jan. 1 Next
Is introduced.

Gov. Smith having vetoed the three
platoon bill passed by the Legislature.
the firemen have gone to the Board Of
Aldermen for relief. Yesterday an ordi-
nance making II mandatory upon the
Chief Of the Fire Department to oper-
ate under a three platoon system after
January 1. 1920. was introduced in the
Board by Aldermen Haubert and Gil
mere.
The ordinance, which was referred to
the Committee on General Welfare.
provides that the captains, lieutenants,
engineers and flremen shall be divided
into three platoons. no one of which
shall be assigned to more than one
tour of duty OF eight hours in every
t1enty-four. except in the case OF con-
Migration, riots or similar emergency.
These tours shall be changed each week.
Alderman William F. Quinn, Repub-
lican, provided more work for the Demo-
cratic steamroller when he again intro
duced his resolution of a week ago
calling on Mayor Hylan to enhghten the

THE secrecy surrounding the street
railway negotiations was ratified and
Endorsed by those Tammany members
Of the board who wanted to bury the
traction inquiry demanded in my reso.
lution The Tweed ring and the Ice
Trust scandal were planned and executed
in secret. We may be bordering on an
other situation more permanent and
dangerous to the public than either OF
these unless the members of this boart
make short work of those who are
working in the dark. and to what enc
no one knows. Those who do not op
pose the secret deal are for it."
