Nelu Shift
ofP0Hce is
Made Today

Another change in the local police
force has been made by Chief of Po-
lice Patrick j. Burke, it going into eff
feet today. When questioned this
morning as to what had caused the
change Chief Burke replied that it
was "for the good of the service"
Under the new regime John Murray,
who had been doing plain clothes
duty for about week after two weeks
as traffic officer, is returned to uni
form and is now stationed at Smith
and State as traffic officer.
Albert Mcdonald, who has been the
traffic officer at the Five Corners"
during the time Murray was on plain
clothes duty, has been returned to
patrol duty.
Michael Muska, who was made a
plain clothes man at the same time as
Murray is again In uniform and IS
now doing patrol duty.
Christ Hansen, formerly traffic Of
ficer at Prospect and Smith streets, re-
turned to patrol duty in the shake-up
before Christmas, is again at his old
post doing traffic duty.
The change of Officers- Murray and
Muska to plain clothes about a week
or SO ago, after they had just been
put in uniform, is understood to have
been made In order that they might
assist in solving the RoeSsler d
Hasslacher platinum robbery case
and also keep an eye on any Reds"
who might be inbedded In this city.
Whether the present status off the
police force is permanent or tempor-
ary is not known but Chief Burke
declares his actions have been taken
with a view in mind of bettering the
service here.
Alderman William G. Wilson,
chairman of the police committee,
when questioned this morning about
the changes in order to learn If he
had authorized them, declared the
two officers, Murray and Muska,
were not receiving the pay that plain
clothes men should receive, and
there was no reason why they should
continue as such.
Mayor Dorsey when asked about
the new change seemed surprised
and declared: "What7 A change

Lodge of the SloVak Gymnastic Union
Sokol terminated Saturday morning
after a very satisfactory four days
session at the headquarters, 283 Oak
street This lodge is composed of the
officers of the National Slovak Union
Sokol and representatives from many
states were present.
The books for the year showed the
very substantial increase Of $4,000
over the amount in the treasury last
year, which makes more than a quar-
ter of a million dollars now available
in the treasury.
A new institution IN the organiza-
ton was authorized, arranging for a
course in embroidery and fency sew
ing to be taught girls of the Junior
branches by the Ladies' Auxil AIRY.
Frank Stas was also authorized to
procure medical inspector for the
local organization.
Mr.. Stas reported this morning that
the entire workings of the organiza
ton. and espec ally the local branch
are going along smoothly. OF par
ticular note, is the growth of the
juvenile gymnastic branch in this
city, which boasts the largest mem
bership in the entire state and third
in the Nnion. New Jersey also stands
third in membership of all the states.
One of the questions brought before
the session was the sending of a dele
cation of young men and women TO
attend the gymnastic exposition to be
held at Prague. Czecho-Slovakia in
May OF this year. Because of the
