sible for all conditions, political and
otherwise. Robinson. they say, to use
the words of former Mayor Smith, was
merely an ''ofice boy" Colonel Hatch
referred to him as a 'puppet.'
When the Moore administration came
into office the question of the removal
of Robinson arose at once. Police Off
cials daily expected to hear that As
sistant Superintendent of Police Mills
had been named Robinson's successor
But promptly it began to be whispered
about that Robinson would be retained
only long enough to enable him to get
his pension.
Pension Due February ~
Superintendent Robinson viii be eli
gible for his pension, providing he is
fired on February "a. If he resigns
voluntarily, which no one expects, he
will not be eligible for his pension. The
reason for that is that Robinson is not
yet fifty years old. He is forty six i.
When Robinson is fifty the Moore ad-
ministration will be at an end.

II do not see anything wrong" said
Mayor Smith, 'The assertion that his
automobile is being used to advertise a
brewery plant is bunk. The machine
bears no marks of any kind to designate
it as part of the official machinery, aud
! cannot see where any harm is done if
Robinson chooses to let his wife ride
in it from time to time.
Smith Upheld Robinson
The truth of the matter is that
some people have never forgiven me for
continuing Superintendent Robinson in
office. Strong pressure was brought to
have him dropped. | am not going to
be party to the persecution of Robin
son or any other police official | kept
him because ! believed him to be good
man and an efficient police official.'
When Superintendent Robinson was
shorn of his power as the result of the
demand of the federal government. IL
demand based on lax moral conditions
injurious to soldiers and sailors when
the country was at war, he was allowed
TO leave the department for a ''vaca
tion." and in August, 1918, was ap-
pointed n captain in the Quartermas
ter's Department.
In January of last year Robinson.
having been discharged from the army
was restored to his post as superinten =
dent over the strong protest of Colonel
Hatch.

TOWN GETS RICH OVER LIQUOR

AKRON, Ohio.-Before national
prohibition came predictions were
made that maryland dire = would
be the privations which would fol-
low in the wake of the loss of rev.
enue which the liquor interests had
been paying to national state and
municipal authorities.
Apparently, there has been rude
awakening.
It nows appears that prohibition
is big paying investment.
Investigation discloses that NUM-
cipalities and townships in this
country are deriving revenue three
times as big as during the days when
under license, booze, hootch. ct al,
could be sold legally, and portion
Of the license money paid into the
state treasury by the liquor dealers
was distributing among the local po-
litical subdivisions Of the state.
