Lieutenant Jones
Gets Enriglnt %. X
On Retirement
Veteran Policeman's Long
Fight Won When Court
Issues Contempt Writ
A gainst His Superior

Pohce Commissioner Enright finally
retired Lieutenant William A. Jones
yesterday on half pay, s2,225 year
Enright acted in time to escape court
contempt proceedings. For months he
had refused to retire the lieutenant
in spite of the fact police surgeons
had declared him physically unfit for
duty.
Lieutenant Jones last night advanced
two possible reasons for Commissioner +
Enright's treatment of him.
One was his opposition to Enright's
reelection as head Of the Police Lieu
tenants Association in 1915. Enright
had held the position many years, and
Jones led a flibustcr against his re-
election. However, Enright won the
election.
The other concerns Detective Irving
O'Hara, who is Mayor Hylan's brother
in-law. When Jones was in charge
Of the Ninth Branch Detective Bureau
in Brooklyn, detectives made an i'm
portant arrest one day. Jones said
to do with the arrest, tried to induce
Jones to make the record read SO he
would be given part of the credit.
Jones fatty refused. The detectives
he did credit with the arrest were Of
ficially commended.
Jones MadesLong Fight
Jones had to fight many months for
his retirement. After Enright refused
&c retire him he appealed to the courts.
In the Brooklyn Supreme Court he won
mandamus writ ordering Enright TO
retire him. Enright appealed to the
Appellate Division, but lost. Enright
formally sanctioned the retirement
when Jones secured from the Brooklyn
court an order requiring Enright to
show cause why he should not be ad-
judged in contempt.
an my thirtytwo years in the Po-
lice Department." said Jones last night,
81 have never known of a man so
Inundated as ! have been. Policemen
suspended under serious charges were
never compelled to report daily at
Headquarters
Made to Report Daily
Since last June Enright has com
PEELED Jones, who has been on sick
leave, to report daily to the police sur
geon at Headquarters. Jones's home,
at 400 Katonah Avenue, is fifteen
miles from Headquarters. 1t took the
man whom two boards Of police sur
geons had certified was suffering from
paralysis, one hour and a half to get
to Headquarters, similar time to re-
turn, and frequently he was kept wait
ing an hour or so before he could go
through the formality of reporting"
to the surgeon.
One Of Enright's stated objections TO
retiring Jones was that the Lieutenant
INTENDED TO engage in private business.
One Of the siXty-nine policemen retired
since Enright has been in Office was
Detective +. II. Waldron, who now con-
ducts private detective agency Dur
ing Jones's thirty-two ycars service he

the precise address of the invalids.
In support of this statement. the
Governor produced q number Of re-
turned letters with the original envelop
on which we're notations to the effect
that the man was sick. In some in
stances the notation even gave the
number of the ward and the name Of

the addresses We're known to the pos
tai authorities, they had returned the
letters, instead of forwarding them to
the new locations.
L. S. Soldiers Discouraged
In concluding his discussion of these
matters, Governor Allen said that
everything was permitted to happen to
an American soldier to discourage and
demoralize him that could happen, and
the result was that the members Of q
victorious army were returning home
sore and sullen and without any of the
glad elation of victors in noble cause.
Regarding the battle of the Argonne
governor Allen covered substantially
the same ground to-day that he did
before the House Rules Committee

Governor Allen, as a Y. NJ. c. A. work

Cause of ''Y" Complaints
The Governor said these complaints
